I think the article in RS last month was so honest. One of the best tributes ever. DFW death by hanging, I believe, was not something selfish, it was desperation. Perhaps a mind cannot take an MAOI like Nardil for twenty years and then wean off it without disastrous results. At the time of his death he was married to a great gal, and had a job he loved, money, super-cool parents, dogs that he rescued.. He always had many friends. I am convinced that nardil kept him alive and killed him...RIP

Actually just read it today, I also agree that it was a profound tribute.

The brand new issue of Rolling Stone (the one with President Obama on the cover) has a substantial, insightful, and of course ultimately heartbreaking piece on David Foster Wallace. Fascinating whether you read his work or not.

RIP David i will miss your writing very much.

Wow, the interview with Wallace in here is really good. I've never seen the charlie rose show that I can remember, but he interviewed incredibly. Also, Wallace says some great stuff in this too. I didn't watch the other interviews, but I don't doubt the interviewees are interesting people too.

David Foster Wallace was a kindred spirit; we should all be sad that he suffered so much, just as we should be and compassionate about anyone in any kind of pain; I am incredibly sad that he is no longer around to observe and explain this world to us. He was brilliant, self-deprecating, and generous with his talent, which we were so lucky he shared with us. I wish there was more to come... I wish there was a different way to end the pain.

This guy wrote and judged himself on what he wrote, and on much tougher terms than anyone else. We should follow and judge him by his writing. The suicide is sad and he will be missed. I still respect his search and his work. RIP DFW

while i was never a huge fan, wallace was super talented and very influential, and i hope he rests in piece.

Essentially, electroshock therapy for the new age. It only made his depression more unbearable, of course, and he committed suicide after trying the new therapy all summer. According to the statement "he just couldn't stand it anymore." So, whomever insults and condescends to David Foster Wallace because of his suicide after this, well...you're going to hell, or whatever place you believe in. I hope you enjoy it.

. Imagine being on Ritalin or Adderol for that long and suddenly ending the medication. You would be emotionally off-balance, unable to concentrate, and probably have withdrawals. Now imagine that for depression medication, pills for the CLINICALLY depressed. It must have been hell. He did the only other treatment he could find; electroconvulsive therapy.

I hope you all know, before you rag on him or even clumsily defend him, that David Foster Wallace had very good reasons to kill himself, I'm sorry to say, and was not a coward or whatever. He had been on depression medication for 20 years and, in the weeks before he committed suicide, was told by a doctor that the medication was giving him possibly irreparable damage because of side effects. He then got completely off of them AFTER 20 YEARS!

Well said sir, well said.

Clumsy writing on my part. I meant my friend, not David Foster Wallace. Sorry...

How was he going to be unemployed? Just wondering, didn't hear anything about it.

Rest In Peace, a lost voice. Not the best way to say goodbye.

Having had a friend kill himself at 30, I find myself conflicted. Yes, it infuriates me, but I loved the guy, so I'm not going to go around cursing his memory and discounting everything he ever did. I wish he hadn't done it, though I can sort of understand his motivations (a lifetime full of pain and unemployment ahead of him). I tend to agree that anyone who reacts as viscerally as Mr. O'Dowdy to an act by someone he did not know might benefit from talking to someone about his feelings.

"People who suffer through this life to the bitter end are the ballsiest fucks on Planet Earth." How very true. How very untrue.
By: blahblahbleebleeblah. on 20 Sep 08, 22:52:31
People who suffer through this life to the bitter end are the balsiest fucks on Planet Earth. A guy like Wallace had so many things going for him, yet he was depressed. Waugh, I say again! Those of you who fall back on the idea that depression is an illness should also believe in a cure. Maybe Wallace should have spent more time finding a cure before he decided to teach impressionable young people. Now all I see on here are people who sympathize with him. The disease needs to be quarantined.

whose who think that taking one's own life is 'the easy way out' are only laying out on display their own failures and absences of self thought for the rest of the world to admire. suicide may well be an easy way out for a high flying lawyer hired to save the mafia bosses arse from a lifetime of imprisonment, or the hit and run driver who kills a child. but for others suicide is a way of saying enough is enough. there is no easy way out. and anyway most people usually cut corners. hypocrites.
