He was found by a friend who called 911, but it was too late.

We miss you Jonathan.
-------------------------------------
Depression can hit anyone.
And untreated depression is the number one cause for suicide.
Jonathan Brandis needed treatment for his depression, but never received it.
It is very disquieting that Jonathan told some of his friends that he was suicidal, and they did nothing. You must always take talk about suicide very seriously. And suicide can never be a secret. If someone tells you that he or she is suicidal, you must get help for that person immediately.
