Owen,

I have always loved you, your movies, and your voice…so awesome. I was nothing but shocked when I heard the news. When it was first reported, hospitalized, i thought you were maybe overworked, broke a leg, etc. In my wildest dreams I never would have thought this. I lost a brother seven years ago to depression, he was very young, younger than you. I still don’t understand fully what he went through, but I do take medication myself for anxiety/depression. Life is just tough sometimes. You are a wonderful actor, and although I don’t know you personally, I can sense what type of person you are…I am truly happy you are going to be ok. I can’t wait to see your next movie! Please be strong and pull through, you have alot of people counting on you. You sure would be missed more than words can say. We love you!

I hope that he can see that he has an impact on a lot of people. There are people around him that love him and will support him. He needs time to heal and when he’s ready his fans will be there for him. Be strong Owen.

I’ve suffered from depression for
many years. It’s lonely, cold, and
dark when you’re in the depths of depression. Certainly, others telling me to snap out of it or that I have nothing to be depressed about doesn’t help a thing.

The illness makes you think you can’t recover and that things can’t possibly get better. You don’t trust yourself, your life, your future. You see everything through a skewed, negative prism. When I was at my lowest point, something that helped me was this: Don’t listen to/trust what the disease tells me. Instead, rely what other people in recovery for depression know … to trust the recovery process… trust that with help for depression, I can get better, manage it, and go on to lead an excellent, fun, and meaningful life.

Owen: Regardless of what your depression is telling you, your life has meaning and can feel good to you again. I can say that with 100% certainty. Lean on the good people around you (doctors, family, friends) and do what they tell you … so you can recover. It’s hard, but you can do it. Other people have done it, I’m working on it, and you can do it, too.

Much love and support from afar,

Lisa

Hey EXTRA!
What part of I RESPECTFULLY ASK THE MEDIA TO LET ME HEAL IN PRIVATE don’t you get?
Is there nothing else to sensationalize today? Good Grief.
It’s not just you guys though, it’s all of the rag media outlets.
I think it would have shown a measure of class and integrity if your report was a few general paragraphs about leaving him alone as an effort to respect the privacy of those going through tough times, and sympathizing with difficulty that comes with going through such things as a public figure.

First this is addressed to JOHN…I almost fell off my chair when I read your ignorant comments. In fact, I had to read it a couple of times just to make sure I was indeed seeing what I was seeing. When I say ‘ignorant’, I am not just referring to RUDE, but also to UNEDUCATED! What kind of a person needs to kick another person when they are down? That speaks volumes in itself. You have a serious personality flaw, JOHN! You’ve referred to GOD, and the BIBLE, yet you clearly do not know much about them. God is a God of MERCY, LOVE, KINDNESS! He feels deeply for the lost people, the ones who are in a desperate state. We are living in a very perilous time, John, where the pressures of life can get to someone despite their character, stature in life, educational background, etc. You know the saying “what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger?” Sometimes it does kill. Sometimes people are distraught and have no place to go for the help they need. Sometimes people don’t even know why they feel the way they feel. But one thing is for sure, God loves us all! Even you JOHN! So the next time you feel like being a judgmental ignorant person, just remember that you are only human too JOHN. “Beware the proud that they may not fall”
OWEN: My heart goes out to you. You need not give ignorant people like JOHN a second thought. Just know that we all hope you can heal. Know that you are precious in GODS eyes. Your life does have meaning, and someday you will find it. We have all been sad or depressed or overwhelmed at some point in our lives, and we haven’t had the extreme pressures you live with daily. You give such joy to people with your work. You may never know how many people you make smile, or how many depressed people you’ve raised the spirits in. But OWEN, please don’t give up and please don’t succumb to the pain. Sometimes what doesn’t kill you CAN make you stronger! Use that! Be a survivor! Survive, then live. If you never want to do another movie or be in the media spotlight again, that’s fine, just live…live and find your happiness. Wishing you all the inner peace and calmness you deserve…LISA

I am very saddened to hear this. Owen, if you knew how many people you make laugh and smile on a daily basis, you would realize how much you would be missed. You have always been one of my favorite actors and I hope you continue to entertain us all for quite a while.

he and his family need people to respect his privacy right now. all of this publicity will no doubt make his stress worse. have some respect!

We love ya! XOXO

my prayers are with Owen also.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10:13)

Your movies make me so happy. When I see your smiling face on TV and in magazines, I smile. If you left this world, in that manner, I wouldn’t be able to look at your picture, or watch your movies ever again without feeling complete and utter sadness and remorse. There are a lot of people you don’t know, who care about you. Please take care of yourself and get well soon. Sending you and your family lots of positive Chi.

I was very shock when I heard that Owen wilson tried to commit suicide. I follow Owen’s career for years and I though that he never do this sort of thing. I hope he’s fine, he’s one of the best actors around.

Owen, I am such a big fan of you and your movies and was very saddened to hear of wha just happened to you. You are a very gifted actor and the world would be a much poorer place without you. Please don’t hurt yourself again. Your family and friends love you and need you. Your fans need you too. Get well real soon!

No one knows what someone feels unless they actually walk in their shoes. I don’t think that suicide is the route to go, but think if we could understand that even as big an icon as any of the stars are, they are all human. We and the paparazzi should leave them alone and let them live their lives. We all like our privacy, why should they be any different. I am not a super spiritual person, but know that God helps those who help themselves. We all need prayer and sometimes solitude. My prayers are with ALL people that have suicidal thoughts.

John,
It’s better not to judge people. I am one of those people who do not understand suicide. My brother lost his battle with his torments 3 months ago to the day, and I still do not understand. My brother had success…..graduated from a Big Ten college, member of frat, loyal and had tons of friends. The day that I had to call my parents, grandparents and his friends will forever be remembered. His mind was clouded. Sure he had meds and doctors, but those never cured his inner self. My brother battled for 30 yrs of his life. What kept him alive all those years was his love for his grandparents, friends and me. So, if you have negative thoughts about suicide do me a favor, keep them to yourself. Your words only hurt those have dealt with suicide. You have no right to judge.

A writer wrote on 8/27, that they would trade their lives with Ownes anyday. Do you think just because people are living a life of fame, that they do not have problems? Do you think that they are not like regular people? It baffles me that someone who write such a thing. Get a reality check!

I wish Owen and his family nothing but the best and I will keep them in my prayers. I almost lost my mom to a suicide attempt and now I have realized that everyone has problems. So many of us take life for granted. I hope that Owen gets help and finds some kind of happiness. I know that we experience pain and some of us would like for that pain to end, but there are people who want to help. Seek help Owen. You are not going through this alone!!

Owen,

My heart and thoughts and prayers are with you and your family through this time. I wanted to leave this life 3 years ago, after the death of my mother, a terrible car accident and a ton of job related stress. I got help in time because my family continued to push at the wall I had built until they got through. Please let your family and the people who truely love and care about you in. I know how hard this is. I know it is harder to live life than it is to leave it. I got better with therapy and medication (which I still take) and the love of family and friends and alot of faith. It may be awhile before you are ready to hear this, but when you are, please know that if you were not on this earth you would be truely missed by so many. Even though everyday is so hard for you to live now, I promise with the love of your family and with help from caring medical professionals you will get better and feel better. It’s not an easy, overnight fix, so please hang in there, accept all the help and love you are offered and have faith that the light will come through a little more each day. Take good care and when you are able, please let your fans know how you are. You have endeared yourself to us through your work and we do care about you very much!
PS: JOHN, you are an ignorant and selfish person who needs a swift kick in the a##!
