Mike's right -- suicide is much more common than many believe. Suicidal thoughts, even among non-psychiatric patients, are not uncommon.
Still, the base rate for suicide, while way too high, is low enough that it makes prediction extremely difficult. Basic risk factors are well known, but so few of the people with those risk factors complete suicide that predicting who will suicide will likely always be an educated guess.

River Phoenix had given himself up to The Method when he was playing the role of Mike Waters in Private Idaho. Many have speculated that his approach to that particular role is what lead, in great part, to his death outside the Viper Room.

From IMDB.
This is breathtaking in its poor taste and offensiveness. Quote:

Those types of apologies are completely insincere. The only reason he was sorry was because his job suddenly became less secure.
I'll believe he is really sorry if he does something besides merely spending two seconds of his life uttering two words. |

Am I a bad person because I don't care that Ledger is dead?
I had no connection to him. His death doesn't affect my life at all.
