Linkin Park lead singer dead

Chester Bennington of Linkin Park has apparently committed suicide. He was just 41. Sad.

This tablet won't let me post links but I see it pretty much everywhere. I didn't see it here though.

I never have been a fan of their music, but it's always such a sad situation with these things.

I feel for him because he felt that suicide would be his only relief and I am heartbroken for his family

Heartbreaking, His poor family and friends

I saw it on Facebook earlier and I thought it was one of those click bait things, I was so sad to find out it was real.
He was friends with Chris Cornell, today is his birthday
Its s heartbreaking, he was so young and had had kids. Thoughts and prayers to his friends and family.

They just played "Heavy" on the radio, its hard to listen to those lyrics now.

So sad for him and his family. His music was a huge influence on my life as a young adult.

What is really sad is that one person worldwide commits suicide every 40 seconds projected to be every 20 by 2020 yet the only media attention the subject gets is when the person has some sort of status or when it is a sensationalized case. In my opinion the subject should not be as Tabu as people make it seem if people were not stigmatized they might feel there is somewhere to turn .

Maybe a famous person doing so can help bring more awareness? Ugh, it's hard to even think about.

This is starting to feel like all those music star deaths from the late 60s-early 70s. I'm so sorry for the loss of the person and those close to them.

It's so sad when someone feels they need to "end it all", be it a famous person or the guy/girl next door.

Yesterday I was listening to the radio and they said "coming up we'll have a tribute for Chester Bennington" and I was like "whoa what?? why??" so I googled his name and found out that way.

Several hrs later post after post on my FB was about it.

I am so saddened by it. I loved Linkin Park when I was in middle and high school and still continued to love them into college and beyond.

I never listened to Linkin Park until I was in my 40's, I am 52 now.

The pain of these suicides is so tragic. It is sad.
