The idea that a comedian can suffer from clinical and severe depression just seems amazing to me but I now know that just because you don’t lay in bed all day or act “blue” doesn’t meen you’re not depressed. Richard Jeni was one of my favorite comedians –I could nearly quote most all of his HBO specials to you. There are few comedians I will listen to over and over again but Richard was one of them. His family has a statement on the official website makes things pretty clear that his death was a suicide. Sad, sad day. Richard, you will me missed dearly.
