A man that looks like this is clearly unwell. Famous or not, this is the face of somebody who is struggling. I hope he recovers from this - not because he is famous and I look up to him, but becuase he is a human. It would be no different if it were any other person. Nobody acts how he acted if they are happy and healthy. What he did was inexcusable and I am glad he is being held accountable by law and some people, becuase he should be.
He did something awful, but I think it is pointless to shit on the guy. He will not become a better person by mocking and saying mean things about him. He clearly knows he made a mistake. Everybody can clearly see he made a mistake. Is it just fine? No. It's not fine, but neither is being a pessimistic jerk and being rude. He has kids and a wife and a family and all of them are being hurt by this, by what fans say. By making fun of him or belittling him, you are making fun of somebody who is struggling with mental illness. No happy person acts this way.
He needs help and all anybody can now do (to effect him positively) is hope he gets it. We should hope every person suffering with a problem like this gets help. He could be an alcoholic, and we would not know, and it's the same thing in that situation. Addiction is a disease - he should get help and we should hope he does. No matter what the underlying cause, something went wrong, and he is unwell.
We should support him. We shouldn't condone what he did, or say he has an excuse. He does not have any excuse. But we should not fixate on the bad he has done. We should fixate on how he can improve. We should fixate on what needs to change and how to make that process easier for somebody who has been publicly humiliated and shamed for what he has done.
I hope he recovers, I truly do. I hope anybody who struggles with mental illness or addiction or any other issue gets the help they deserve as well. Please don't be a bully. Remember he is a human. He is not perfect, he is not inncoent, but he is a human. A human that is hurting others because he himself is hurt. Berating somebody will NEVER help them, celebrity or not.
Be kind to others. Help others. Don't be a bully.
