The new biographical book "Robin" reveals details about the state of health of actor Robin Williams, who brought his life to an end in March 2014.

The author of the book, journalist and biographer Dave Itskof, met with friends and former colleagues of Williams to restore the picture of the last days of the actor's life, according to the publication Mirror.

In 2008, Robin felt that he was losing his talent. He rapidly developed a neurogenic disease, because of which he forgot the texts, could not joke well and suffered from panic attacks.

From the comic, Williams turned into a man who suffered from depression, which every day more and more lost interest in life.

The first thoughts about suicide in the actor appeared in 2013 on the set of the tape "Night at the Museum. Secret of the Tomb, "where he forgot the words. It finally knocked him out of the rut.

"He sobbed in my arms at the end of each day. It was terrible. I told him to people: "I'm a simple make-up artist. I do not have the opportunity to understand what is happening to him ". And Robin was crying: "I can not, Cherry. I do not know anymore how. I do not know how to be ridiculous, "says the makeup artist Cherry Minchs in the book Itskofa.

In the same year, after a panic attack, the actor was prescribed a course of psychotropic drugs, and a year later he was diagnosed with a terrible diagnosis - Parkinson's disease.

"I never heard him so afraid. It was the bravest comedian I've ever met, the most courageous artist I've ever known. But at that time in front of me was just a frightened man, "- recalls a close friend of the actor Billy Crystal.

Recall, the police found that Robin Williams died of suffocation - he hanged himself on a belt. According to the main version of the investigation, Robin took over himself because of depression, which developed against the background of Parkinson's disease.
