I never understand why people think success and riches should improve the chances that someone who is suffering from a depressive illness would seek help.
Why not? Wealth, comfort and free time, though they provide no guarantees, definitely improve a person's ability to access mental health care and I believe increase the likelihood they will do so.
Cornell himself had spent years of his life in care of one kind or another. His lifestyle enabled his drug problems and his stints in rehab. What is sad for me is that he was unable to escape his problems despite the help he sought and received.
