My coworker kept saying she couldn't understand how someone with such a "good life" would commit suicide. I told her that just because a person seems to have a good life by all appearances doesn't mean they're happy internally.
Your co worker must be very young. Not even when you’re seeing someone who appears to be happy on social media, but thinking that you know someone by the pictures they post is a big no no. I’ve dated before and after the internet became a thing. And what you think a person is in general online, in videos, etc is far from the truth. You only truly know when you live with them
Black men say white women, Asian and Latina women are the things they make them happiness! Well I guess it's the opposite sides once this man committed suicide. If his wife was Black woman, ppl would be tearing her to pieces and blaming her.
Many simply aren't happy behind closed doors. People will get on tv and say they love their wife and kids and wish they didn't exist. There's no easy exit. I work with a lot of celebrities and you'd be surprised what's said behind closed doors. I think we do people a disservice by saying they're simply depressed or sad. Many aren't sad but feel trapped and think this is their only way out.
Nah. Him committing suicide is ridiculous and selfish. What the hell was he depressed about? I have no respect for him leaving his 3 kids behind. Inexcusable.
So so courageous of you to push for the help you felt was needed. I'm very happy to hear you're feeling better. Thankyou for sharing. Blessings sweetie from Melbourne Australia🙏🌏💙
This☝🏽... One of the best comments I've read because it's so true. I don't think most people will be able to truly absorb this statement despite it being so simple.
As someone who suffers from depression, I can say the struggles are truly real. The medications help, the support groups help and family helps, however the BIGGEST help is communication. Don’t assume someone is fine, really talk to them and really listen to exactly what they are saying…. It can make a world of difference.
@@yurie5076 wow so heartless you know people who suffer from depression feel hopeless and can't control having suicide ideation. It's crippling and you need some emotional intelligence and get off your high horse
@@yurie5076 I disagree. For the record, suicide is never the answer and leaving kids fatherless isn’t either. Whatever drove him to such a final answer is the problem. He felt he had NO WAY out, which is horrible. He had felt this way for awhile not just the day he died. Communication is the key. The symptoms were there.
This is hurting my heart...since I read in disbelief yesterday. He just looked like a happy person and now this! As much as it hurts me I can't begin to fathom what Allison & especially those precious, innocent babies are feeling/thinking. May God continue to show them the way to peace. 🙏🏾💔
This has shook me & im in complete shock I used to love watching him with his huge energy & positivity on the Ellen show he was insanely talented & had an upbeat very nice kind genuine personality I thought I’d see him again but it’s super sad he’s gone that young & won’t return to our screens & saddest for his loving family always smiling & I will miss him terribly
Me too, Me too. I jus can't get him out of my mind. I keep seeing his beautiful smile I loved watching him on Ellen G. show wow wow wow, that's all I keep saying 2 myself. U rest now in Peace. Tammy Williams. My Prayers are with ur family.
My 23 year old son committed suicide in 2007, and there's always the question of "why". What didn't I see? People put up great outward facades, but you never really know what's going on inside. What torment, darkness or despair. My heart goes out to Allison and her children because their lives have been forever changed and even on the best of days, there's always pain within you. It's something you just learn to accept and live with and that is very hard to do at times. May God be with this family through these dark days. My prayers 🙏 ❤️ are with them.
Yes, you are right, you are not ever the same again. My brother killed himself years ago. He was such an amazing person. Once his light went, I went with him too. I remember him every day. Always✨️
@@kathleengerrie5201 My daughter has also suffered the loss of her brother when my son killed himself. My children's father (who I was divorced from) also killed himself many years ago so she's had a double tragedy to deal with. Suicide is so hard to deal with and understand. God bless you always and I'm so sorry about your brother 🙏 😢 💔
People put facades, because THEY ARE EXPECTED TO...SOCIETY EXPECTS PEOPLE TO BE POSITIVE, KIND, LIKEABLE, SUCCESSFUL ALL THE TIME...THAT IS WHY HE WAS LOVED...BUT THIS FACADES ARE HEAVY AND PEOPLE GO INTO DEPRESSION..
Although I did not know him personally, I can say that he made me smile everytime that I saw him on TV all the way back to the SYTYCD days. He also has a beautiful family. Your smile and legacy will be remembered. RIP Mr. Boss.
I have never been so sad about someone I don’t know’s death. I’m heartbroken for Allison and the kids. He seems like one of those people who to know him is to love him! My heart love and prayers go out to all who did know and love him!
I felt like that yesterday. His family was so bonded. I pray she get the answers she needs along with the children......but the World need to respectfully let it go. It truly is no no e of our business (the reason).
He DIDN'T give up!! That's insulting to those of us who suffer from mental illness. Anyone who has been suicidal knows that kind of agony. He may have had a horrible reaction or side effects to an anti depressants or another medication. We know very little about this.
💯, I had a bad reaction with two different medication I was taking. It sent me into serotonin syndrome and caused me to deal with thoughts of “un-aliving”myself. It was out of character and it terrified me. My husband was my hero and saved my life. I am assuming twitch was dealing with a medical crisis…Which is NOT giving up
People knew him, never say that!! His true soul was what he shared. The horribly sad truth is that depression/anxiety/complete sense of hopelessness is NOT what a person is. It’s a factor they deal with, often in silence. He was and will always be the sweet, kind, positive, beautiful soul!!! RIP sweet, sweet soul 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
That is called an Evil Spirit that if a person doesn't have an close relationship with God that one spirit will begin to draw other evil spirits 💯 C'mon people this is just my opinion if you don't agree well I understand that 👈
I’m glad his Dean said that we did know him, just because one ends their life through suicide doesn’t mean they were living a double life, tWitch could be a caring, generous, loving person who also obviously had some darkness that he was going through. I will always be grateful to have witnessed his beautiful art and wonderful spirit all of these years, he certainly will be missed. Rest in power, King.
You never really know a person you just see them and say they ok but you can’t see beneath them do you don’t know, a lot of time people pretend to be happy
Depression and suicidal thoughts are not talked about enough, and within the POC community as a black man, I can’t even try to imagine how alone he felt. 💔
@@paulettefacianne7321 I looked up some statistics for you seeing you clearly did not want to educate yourself before you commented! So I brought the information to you. Suicide is a major health problem, and the global suicide mortality rate amounts to 1.4% of all deaths worldwide. Most suicides are related to psychiatric disease, with depression, substance use disorders and psychosis being the most relevant risk factors. However, anxiety, personality-, eating-, and trauma-related disorders, as well as organic mental disorders, also contribute. Psychological autopsies from the middle of the previous century and onwards have revealed that most people who have died by suicide have suffered from mental disorders. A recent figure suggests this number could be at least 90%. On the other hand, most people with mental disorders do not die by their own hand. The risk of suicide has been estimated to be 5-8% for several mental disorders, such as depression, alcoholism and schizophrenia.
Even his wife said he was not acting like himself. She would know if he acted out of character. I agree this needs to be investigated. There has to be more. I hope he left a note. I hope we can all some day understand 😭☹️
I know of someone in his late teens who ended his life-he was from a healthy family and seemed happy. But a controlling woman seduced him then threatened to say she raped him. He didn’t want to bring disgrace on his family so he ended his life before she brought charges. (She said either be with me or I’ll charge you with rape.) Often a controlling spirit is behind these things, using people. I also know ADHD and autism increase the odds of suicidal thoughts and actions by about 9 times depending on the severity. Clinical depression can sometimes be a physically-based thing, caused by inflammation, heavy metal toxicity, gut issues. (If you can’t digest food you can’t get the nutrients needed to create neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, even melatonin to sleep. These are chemicals needed for feelings of connection and happiness.) Given the sudden change in Twitch’s behavior, I wonder if someone was blackmailing him or he felt shame about something. I myself used to feel death was the only way out of my problems such as chronic fatigue and pain, harmful relationships, financial hopelessness, etc. But if anyone is in that situation, God’s grace is enough, He will give you a new heart and purpose, if you ask Him in Jesus’ name. God always has a way. Put your faith in Him.

@@jasongordan This is most likely scenario. Or his income dropped and she wanted a separation because she requires 200k a month of upkeep instead of only 100k
@@kellydecamp3656 This describes my ex-girlfriend. After a few years though she was the one to leave me for a high earning partner and i was the one to be depressed. Women can't handle their own medicine but have problem dishing out abuse
This case seems so odd to me. Why did Twitch joyfully say that he was looking forward to his wife having another baby someday, but then he committed suicide? Why did he continue to freely post playful dance videos instead of retreating from the public? Why did Twitch bother to bring a bag of clothes along with him if he didn’t intend on living long enough to change into them anyway? Why did he take his cell phone with him if he didn’t plan to use it or answer it? Why did Twitch rush to that hotel without his car? What did the surveillance cameras show at home and at the hotel? The investigation seems to have been closed too quickly. But maybe that’s just what the authorities are telling the public. Meanwhile Twitch is sorely missed. My deepest condolences to his family especially his children. 🙏
It is so strange too me. Everyone is saying he was depressed how do we know this. Of course this could have been or may be he was being pressured into something or who knows maybe something behind closed doors so many possibilities best thing probably is to not even think about it cause we will never know twitch was the only one who knew and he is gone😢god bless his soul.
Sadly we can’t say why he did this because we can never know but twitch made his choices and decided to end his journey all we can do is pray for his Wife Allison and their there kids together so they can be Ok I have a feeling Sophia Grace did something
Latrice: I agree with you! I think there’s more to his story that needs to be investigated. None of this makes any sense. You don’t make plans for a future that you don’t plan to have! I’m not going to jump on the suicide bandwagon any time soon! I smell a rat!
This just shows how strong depression can be. This was a man who always got back up, kept fighting for what he wanted. This was a man who would come in a room and make everyone smile. But depression, it can get even the strongest of us. I've had anxiety and depression for over 40 yrs, I fight it every day, so I understand how it can take over. I hope his kids and wife have plenty of support.
I have to strongly disagree with the comment about not really knowing him! That comment was in terrible taste. We’re not talking about a serial killer, we’re talking about a beautiful, genuine man with a heart of gold… but no one saw the pain. He suffered in silence. Even through his pain, he made it his life’s mission to make others smile, laugh, love and never give up on dreams. I truly wonder what brought Twitch to leave, what happened that day in his mind. I wish for him and his beautiful family, that day could be replayed, with a much different result.
Twitch shared often the sadness he felt at the loss of black peoples lives from suspicious LE shootings. The hopelessness that nlthing was being done about all the shootings, especially since the George Floyd trial. He often brought up the various names of victims of police shootings, as if as a society we were already moving on and forgwtting them.
I still can’t believe this beautiful man is gone, especially how it happened. He seemed so happy in his life, family, work and friends. He was one of my favourite parts of the Ellen show. It just shows us that we don’t always understand someone is going through depression. My ❤goes out to his wife and 3 children. So very sad for them. 😢 God bless all of them.
Many times the " strongest" among us may be at the breaking point.. Just because someone appears to have a " perfect life" doesn't mean they aren't struggling! God rest him. He seemed like a bundle of joy and fun. I admired his dancing and joyful attitude. RIP
So sad. 😢 If you have thoughts of suicide you should know God loves you no matter what you feel. Don’t take your own life. You are worthy of this life. That is why God created you!
Agreed.. he was around many people with power and money.. power and money also involves lies, cover ups, paying ppl to keep their mouths shut, controlling the media, framing murders, paying off medical examiners, lawyers, threats and many framed suicides
I think a pattern is emerging: in every single interview and story after his death, everyone says how positive and inspiring Twitch was. No one can be positive 100% of the time so the pattern is that he kept whatever was disturbing him to himself and no one around him had a clue that he was struggling. That's also why this is so shocking. I wish he had been well enough to share what was troubling him with someone so the burden he was carrying would have been lifted off of him, and he could still be here with his wife and kids for many years to come. Sending healing and strength to them and his family. RIP Twitch. Thank you for all the joy you brought to everyone you met.
I never understood when people would cry about a celebrity’s passing but I cried for this man… I’ve watched him since he first started on SYTYCD and just enjoyed him and his family since then… May God comfort all those he left behind…RIP Twitch. Y’all check on and pray for those who are dealing with depression… may they know that they are always loved not only by God but may others…
Sometimes the mask of depression is the smile shown to the public, but the warmth of the smile never truly mirrors the soul. Please seek help if you feel unsafe in your soul. You are important and valuable and worth the fight to live. To those who are hurting and confused, I pray that you find healing and restoration Above all, be blessed 🙌🏻 ❤
So sad! Gone too soon! tWitch will be missed. We will miss you tWitch. He’s was great dancer. Great person too! My heart goes to the family. I will pray for them. So glad to have known him.
1 day investagation completed. Yeap the Motel stayed open too!! But now they are closing....housekeeping already cleaned his room.🤨nd they closed his case.
Yeah. His death is very suspicious and weird. It doesn't make any sense. He could of been murdered and it was made to look like a suicide. Everyone in Los Angeles is CORRUPT. The Police, The Coroner, The Mayor all are corrupt. Keep in mind that Twitch knew very powerful people like Michelle Obama and Ellen. He knew so many Rich and powerful Celebrities like Channing Tatum, Jennifer Lopez and others. He has been in the Industry a long time. I am sure Twitch saw some weird Hollywood Rituals at some point in his life. This man could of been carrying lots of secrets that weighed heavy on his heart.
Why? He was struggling for a long time. He couldn't get over the social injustices in this world. He especially spoke of the police shootings of the black community. He felt as if those victims were being forgotten. Thats just what he shared on social media, who knows what other issues plagued him? He was a very emotionally driven person, so to those who are shocked, maybe do aome social media digging.
For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a seemingly happy, generous, positive soul can end his life with sooo much love surrounding him. A life that most of us can only dream of. May he finally have eternal peace now. Twitch, you'll always be in my heart. My heart goes out too his loved ones.
It's beyond heartbreaking! I'm dealing with a lot of sorrow right now. A close childhood friend passed away from Cancer and now this beautiful man took his life without so much as a note. This is weighing heavily on me and I am so saddened. So close to his wife, yet she said there were no issues. Majority of people are assuming he had been suffering from depression, but what IF it was something else? Something could have been ongoing in his life that Allison did not want to reveal to the public (and that is her right). Just a very tragic occurrence all around. Of all the people who have passed away outside a friend or family member, this has crushed me the most!
I’m still shocked over this, as we all are. We know the Twitch that he gave us; we don’t know behind the scenes at home or what he may have wrestled with, but for me, it would be more believable if news reported he was murdered, rather than a suicide 3 days after his wedding anniversary, right before Christmas, children and all. I think there’s more to this, no matter what it may be, and I pray for his family & inner circle to make sense & heal from this in their own time. 💔
@@dextermoore278 of course she knows…and he committed a couple of days after their anniversary which makes me believe they got into an argument and she must’ve said something to him and he just lost.
@@photina78 of course she’s gonna say there was no argument😭 she doesn’t wanna make herself look bad and for her to even mention that there “wasn’t an argument” and even bringing that up is even more of a confirmation it was an argument and it had something to do with their marriage.
I wondered about that too like he was extremely happy all the time and that must be too much to have to put on I think he deserve to be sad too but nobody ever saw that
left the house without the car?? he left and slept in a hotel... 1 night ... Then he sadly killed himself! .. 1 day 1 night away, i dont get it. Why isnt she talking about that? something is very very wrong in this.
I hate when people reduce the mental anguish to say they "gave up"!! No. He couldn't find his way through the turmoil. Show compassion ❤️ 🙏 We'll never know what he was going through, and it isn't our place to. We typically don't handle loss and grief well because it reminds us how little we control our lives. Sending hugs and light 🤗 ✨️
The fact that he had such a beautiful family and career ADDS to the depression like, u have everything but ur still not happy… imagine that hopeless feeling… what now, then the guilt associated with feeling sad or hopeless or less then and being active, dancing having an outlet STILL isn’t enough…
‘He never gave up…it’ll never make sense’ - this is precisely what it so often is. People who never give up because they put undue pressure on themselves and will never let it show. It’s part of the toxicity of our society’s culture of never giving up/determining what giving up looks like. It makes all the sense if people just stop to think and j swear and how much pressure is put on individuals to give it their all, all the time. R.I.P. ❤ you are enough ❤️
Wow I’m still in a state of Shock… I’ve watched him back in 2008 on SYTYCD competition where he blew me away with his talent. People can speculate but no one will truly know but God. I heard a quote many years ago from someone about suicidal individuals was… The pain of living overtakes the fear of dying. RIP Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss. Always remembered never forgotten.
Billy, please don’t say people didn’t know him. Especially to the people that truly know him. He was that beautiful soul we all think he was. Mental illness, our struggles etc. are not who we are. They do not define us! It is a small part but sometimes can become the loudest and take over but please don’t diminish him down to his struggles and say to people who love him, that they didn’t know him! It’s extremely insensitive and hurtful! Rest In Power Stephen “tWitch” Boss, you will most definitely be missed by many! 💙 I hope your soul is at peace!
He was just talking about wanting another child. This just doesn't make sense. Although it appears to be suicide, I really want to hear the results of an autopsy. He was requested people to sign a petition regarding policy brutality. Something just isn't right here.
Why would he do this specially around xmas 😢 his poor family won’t have that last xmas experience with him and will always remember this tragedy around the holidays
Yes you can know a person,when depression creeps in,that is usually something people keep to themselves,for different reasons. God rest his soul, condolences to his wife and children,his mom,friends,and fans....
He was definitely a very sensitive guy. So so sad. I didn’t even know him and he just radiated warmth and kindness. He had beautiful kind light filled eyes. Condolences to his lovely wife and beautiful children.
This should be investigated! Ever since I watched him on the show in 2008, I've never really forgotten him! Him and Ellen loved each other on her show....his ever present smile was his signature.
I will always remember him ❤ this is heartbreaking and shows that EVERYONE can suffer with depression. So so sad that he couldn't get the help he needed 😭
Something was going on that the public doesn't know. Something was obviously happening in his life that led to this. Only those closest to him will know what that is. I can assure you that nobody wakes up one morning and decides to committ suicide without a long gestation period. Or something significant happens in an instant and it feels insurmountable leading to a tragic decision. Just because you don't know why, doesn't mean there was no reason. Even so, this likely could have been prevented. It's sad no matter what.
Agree. This man loved his kids too much and seemed to have compassion. Just can't see someone like him taking their life knowing they are leaving so much devastation and sorrow behind.. So tragic and sad. My heart goes out to his family♥️
Yeah something smells fishy! Did he have a history of mental health issues? Documented? Was he seeing a therapist? Did he leave a suicide note? Did he open up to close family and friends that he was struggling mentally?
I just thought that an angel like Robin williams, he kept the laughter going on the outside. But no one really knew what was going on inside his head. This is so sad so very very sad
That's what my mom always told me. She'd say that people who are always laughing and who look so happy with their life are really the ones who are crying on the inside. And I found that to be true.
Yes you're right. I am one of those people. I am a nurse. I am always helping people and I bring sunshine, hope, Joy and compassion to my patients. When I come home, I am overwhelmed by my thoughts. Jesus has been my Comforter and Savior.
Woah! I just caught that! …. Allison ran to the police station and told the cops they had been in a fight… why else would this start out as a DV investigation…… what was really going on in that house! They were fighting about something!
I as someone who suffers from severe depression, knows that we are very good at hiding our moods when we are suffering from an episode. I can tell you that one sign is when we hide away from the world, and cancel appointments, call off from work and not talk to friends or family that we normally will talk to. We go into a shell and just stay there. We stay away from the WORLD IN GENERAL. We are very good at hiding as I said when we are going through episodes that are Soo severe that no one knows how we are truly feeling. It is so very sad that it came to this with 'tWitch', it was too late for anyone to know that he needed help. I can say another thing and that is if you have someone in your life, suffering from severe depression, look for changes in their daily life pattern, as his wife noticed, that is the first give away that something is wrong. I have suffered with mental illness for the majority of my lifetime. I go to regular therapy sessions and am medicated. My doctor's are terrific and whenever I am going through an episode I reach out to them and they are there. RIP young man, the world lost a beautiful person too soon.
Prayers for his family! The enemy comes not but to kill, steal and destroy. But ,I have come that you might have life and life more abundantly. Please remember this world and its problems are temporary. Whatever you are going through give it to God. Life is tough, but He is the only one that can help us face life and our problems with peace knowing that He will work it out. I dealt with depression for two whole years and it was tough, no one around me unstood what I was going through and just wanted me to snap out of it, BUT GOD, delivered me! Praised be His holy name. No matter what you are facing please turn to Him He loves you and cares for you so much! Unfortunately we live in a fallen world, so everyone will go through trials and tribulations, just keep the faith 🙏
~Stephen tWitch Boss was a phenomenally inspiring man...I instantly became overjoyed every time I saw photos/videos of him with his family, when he danced, served as host, judge, or whenever he was being interviewed...May he rest in peace & may his loved ones cherish the memories they shared with him forever...Blessings for his family! ❤🌹
I cry every time I see someone who knew him - share their story. It's truly shocking. So very sad for Allison. She adored that man and was his biggest fan and supporter. They were a great family unit. I don't know how she and those precious children will get through this. Prayers for Allison and their kids. Peace and Healing. We now have to celebrate Twitch and be grateful for the time we had him here. None of us will ever know the reasons, only God knows. God has a new Angel in Heaven now. So very grateful for the time he graced us with his presence, joy and energy. What a man, What a Light filled with so much love.
I’m side eyeing the wife. Twitch seemed like a gentle soul (aka pushover ). He always reminded me of my friend. My friend is soft spoken, gentle and kind man and insecure behind closed doors with his gf. We didn’t like her because she would verbally and mentally abuse him and even more so once out of out of sight. We were finally able to get him to open up about it after he was with her for years. He went through A LOT more than we knew and hid it from us because he didn’t want us to hate her. No one would ever know if he hadn’t went into details later. What did Twitch go through to do this? All that glitters isn’t gold. Be the one a friend can feel safe to talk to. This is so sad and shocking.
People in the comments are concluding it must be side effects of his medication. Do you know he is on medication if so how do you know? Also, saying he was hiding his depression? Did you assess him at the hospital to verify that? We have yet to get solid information from the family and friends. So far it looks suspicious due to his being 40 years old with no known issues with depression or suicide attempts. So until we get the full truth everyone will speculate but try not to make it sound like facts.
Twitch I tell you I've suffered many of losses in my own family. his loss is like hitting the iceberg in the sea your heart goes numb so not real so unexpected can't stop thinking about him or his wife I pray that she gets through this I'll tell you it's hard on me and I just can't imagine her pain or Ellen. 💔
It makes a lot more sense with his friends speaking out than listening to the media and entertainment channels that just want to make a story out of it!
This doesn’t seem right. Something shady is going on. The man was talking about having more children, why would he do this? I do not believe he died on his own terms.
Depression is something we all should start taking it seriously by discussing it and having it expressed. Keeping it within is exhausting and mind blowing. it's very scary when it starts feeling the mind with thoughts of giving up. All in all 'tWitch' Boss was an amazing person to so many out there. He was a genuine person with a big heart. I cannot believe something like this happened. He will be truely remembered and to his beloved wife & children our prayers are with you all 😢❤
“The guy who never gave up, gave up!!???!!??”. Shame on him for saying that. COMPLETELY EMOTIONLESS AND WRECKLESS and can emotionally harm his loved ones.
Why are so many people so quick to accept 'suicide' before a complete investigation. Every other possibility of foul play should be ruled out, and they really haven't had enough time to do that.
exactly & for anyone who’s saying that’s disrespectful think of if someone did hurt him he deserves the respect of us knowing the truth & anyone who hurt him brought to justice
Unfortunately, this is the truth. Suicide will never make sense to a non-sufferer. We can never know anyone else's thoughts 100%. Please accept this news and understand, that he is no longer suffering, which obviously was so painful for him.
Depression can happen as a child that will last your lifetime. Wanting to not let your parent or parents know and keep them happy, you learn to hide and how to act!! Many comedians and very up people only appear to others happy, fun to be with and funny!! No one knows, not even the closest of family or friends!
We’re all trying to understand, but am afraid we won’t, it’s horrific that the woman whom he loved and married, and the mother of his three children who all loved him so much wasn’t enough to make him fight harder to stay with them😢 What a memory and a reality to deal with, Omg 😮
This country does not do enough for the mentally ill I've had 3 nephews commit suicide I have one son bipolar and a husband I watch Them like a hawk and I have Been there for them to go to the doctor's visit Because They twist the truth when they're in their high medic state I never let them straight too far now my husband is dying of dementia I'm caring for him 24,/7 At the same time I take care of my son very hard no one helps me I need to take my husband to the neurologist his develop Seizures He needs to be either and lay back wheelchair Reclines Or a gurney cannot find the transportation financially that I can affor Cannot find the Who could help me no one seems to be able to help me in the meantime hes laying in bed having these horrible seizures a horrible wound in his back that doesn't heal and Kaiser says they can't do anything And medical says we don't qualify But all the legals and everybody else qualifies except us how pay it into the system and now we need Where is the Justice
This is so very sad. I can’t believe this is actually real. I started watching his and Allison’s videos during covid lockdowns and just am at a loss for words 😢This is heartbreaking. We truly lost a wonderful person.
All too often the ones that seem the strongest, the ones that seem to have it all together and smile all the time, most often are the saddest from the weight of it all. Often We’re forced to be strong for everyone, to be the “fix it” for everyone and because of that, we forget that we need our own self care. RIP. You were a beautiful soul ❤
It's the people that you do not expect to take their own life, like Robin Williams, you just never know what somebody's going through mentally they look happy on the outside but inside they're dying and they're miserable 💔
It was later revealed that Robin Williams was suffering from a severe case of Lewy Body Dementia and was suffering neurologically and physically because of it. If an autopsy is performed on Twitch, perhaps it will be discovered that he too was suffering from some sort of physical or neurological disorder as this suicide just seems so unlikely and unexpected.
I saw him first at so you think you can dance and he was instantly my favorite contestant. He was full of energy and quick to smile, and he stayed the same throughout his life. He was the all positive kind of guy but sometimes people use that happy vibe as a shield. They don’t want people to see that brokenness inside because if we do then it will show how real it is. I think he ran away from all his true feelings/thoughts/fears ... and they finally caught up with him. He gave a huge fight.
This made me so sad and heartbroken. I pray for family. I have battled depression and anxiety over 32 yrs and it’s hard! But please, when you feel like you are at the end and can’t take it anymore, no matter what it is….PLEASE GET HELP!!!! I promise you no matter what it is, past, present or future, there are loved ones that will help you through. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
My coworker kept saying she couldn't understand how someone with such a "good life" would commit suicide. I told her that just because a person seems to have a good life by all appearances doesn't mean they're happy internally.
Your co worker must be very young. Not even when you’re seeing someone who appears to be happy on social media, but thinking that you know someone by the pictures they post is a big no no. I’ve dated before and after the internet became a thing. And what you think a person is in general online, in videos, etc is far from the truth. You only truly know when you live with them
Black men say white women, Asian and Latina women are the things they make them happiness! Well I guess it's the opposite sides once this man committed suicide. If his wife was Black woman, ppl would be tearing her to pieces and blaming her.
Totally
Many simply aren't happy behind closed doors. People will get on tv and say they love their wife and kids and wish they didn't exist. There's no easy exit. I work with a lot of celebrities and you'd be surprised what's said behind closed doors. I think we do people a disservice by saying they're simply depressed or sad. Many aren't sad but feel trapped and think this is their only way out.
Nah. Him committing suicide is ridiculous and selfish. What the hell was he depressed about? I have no respect for him leaving his 3 kids behind. Inexcusable.
I went and got help after Naomi Judd's suicide. I went thru 36 TMS treatments. Off meds. Doing really well.
Good to hear!! God bless you!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Glad you helped yourself. Life is challenging but can be beautiful. ❤

So so courageous of you to push for the help you felt was needed. I'm very happy to hear you're feeling better. Thankyou for sharing. Blessings sweetie from Melbourne Australia🙏🌏💙

People don't fake depression; people fake being okay. ❤️🩹
This☝🏽... One of the best comments I've read because it's so true. I don't think most people will be able to truly absorb this statement despite it being so simple.
Aww , Wow just Wow Thank you
Exactly ❤
So true! I do it all the time.
Truth...💯💯🎯
As someone who suffers from depression, I can say the struggles are truly real. The medications help, the support groups help and family helps, however the BIGGEST help is communication. Don’t assume someone is fine, really talk to them and really listen to exactly what they are saying…. It can make a world of difference.
So so true.
He’s a coward for leaving his kids without a dad
@@yurie5076 wow so heartless you know people who suffer from depression feel hopeless and can't control having suicide ideation. It's crippling and you need some emotional intelligence and get off your high horse
@@yurie5076 I disagree. For the record, suicide is never the answer and leaving kids fatherless isn’t either. Whatever drove him to such a final answer is the problem. He felt he had NO WAY out, which is horrible. He had felt this way for awhile not just the day he died. Communication is the key. The symptoms were there.
@@yurie5076
😞
You're just as sick as Stephen was for even thinking such a thing, let alone writing it.
Poor, poor you.
The fact he gave all his love out that he didn’t save enough for himself just breaks my heart 💔
That's me right there.l need to change 😭😭😭
Thought the same. He died alone.
Oh lord I could not agree more
God what really happens ?
Everything sound so weird
So extraneous ….
😭😭😭😭
Couldn't have said it better
Me too
This is hurting my heart...since I read in disbelief yesterday. He just looked like a happy person and now this! As much as it hurts me I can't begin to fathom what Allison & especially those precious, innocent babies are feeling/thinking. May God continue to show them the way to peace. 🙏🏾💔

I'LL NEVER BELIEVE HE KILLED HIM SELF!!! 💔 REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE TWITCH!!! PRAYERS FOR ALL FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!!
Right. He had the brightest eyes and prettiest smile. Who could have ever thought this would happen. He just didn't look sad.
This has shook me & im in complete shock I used to love watching him with his huge energy & positivity on the Ellen show he was insanely talented & had an upbeat very nice kind genuine personality I thought I’d see him again but it’s super sad he’s gone that young & won’t return to our screens & saddest for his loving family always smiling & I will miss him terribly
@@lucilledavis8161 Why do you not believe it? They mention he left a suicide note
Never have I been more saddened & shocked at a performers suicide. He was a genuine joy of light RIP
Jason David frank, that shocked and sadden me. Very sad so many suicides happening
me too
I don’t believe he killed him self
family.
Me too, Me too. I jus can't get him out of my mind. I keep seeing his beautiful smile I loved watching him on Ellen G. show wow wow wow, that's all I keep saying 2 myself. U rest now in Peace. Tammy Williams. My Prayers are with ur family.
My 23 year old son committed suicide in 2007, and there's always the question of "why". What didn't I see? People put up great outward facades, but you never really know what's going on inside. What torment, darkness or despair. My heart goes out to Allison and her children because their lives have been forever changed and even on the best of days, there's always pain within you. It's something you just learn to accept and live with and that is very hard to do at times. May God be with this family through these dark days. My prayers 🙏 ❤️ are with them.
So sorry for your loss; I can't stop thinking of the family he left behind...his mom too! What a tragedy.
Yes, you are right, you are not ever the same again. My brother killed himself years ago. He was such an amazing person. Once his light went, I went with him too. I remember him every day. Always✨️
@@kathleengerrie5201 My daughter has also suffered the loss of her brother when my son killed himself. My children's father (who I was divorced from) also killed himself many years ago so she's had a double tragedy to deal with. Suicide is so hard to deal with and understand. God bless you always and I'm so sorry about your brother 🙏 😢 💔
People put facades, because THEY ARE EXPECTED TO...SOCIETY EXPECTS PEOPLE TO BE POSITIVE, KIND, LIKEABLE, SUCCESSFUL ALL THE TIME...THAT IS WHY HE WAS LOVED...BUT THIS FACADES ARE HEAVY AND PEOPLE GO INTO DEPRESSION..
yes, those who seem so upbeat funny, pleasant ( eg comedians) are sometimes the people who are very down
Although I did not know him personally, I can say that he made me smile everytime that I saw him on TV all the way back to the SYTYCD days. He also has a beautiful family. Your smile and legacy will be remembered. RIP Mr. Boss.
I have never been so sad about someone I don’t know’s death. I’m heartbroken for Allison and the kids. He seems like one of those people who to know him is to love him! My heart love and prayers go out to all who did know and love him!
I feel the same.
I felt like that yesterday. His family was so bonded. I pray she get the answers she needs along with the children......but the World need to respectfully let it go. It truly is no no e of our business (the reason).
Sooo sad
🙏 😔
Yes like Robin Williams a total shock I’m so heartbroken 💔
Me too I am taking this so hard
He DIDN'T give up!! That's insulting to those of us who suffer from mental illness. Anyone who has been suicidal knows that kind of agony. He may have had a horrible reaction or side effects to an anti depressants or another medication. We know very little about this.
Man, is sad he gave up!!
That’s what I thought when I heard that comment…he never gave up! No one truly knows what he went through…
💯, I had a bad reaction with two different medication I was taking. It sent me into serotonin syndrome and caused me to deal with thoughts of “un-aliving”myself. It was out of character and it terrified me. My husband was my hero and saved my life. I am assuming twitch was dealing with a medical crisis…Which is NOT giving up
I agree. He must have been in extreme pain and wanted to end the pain. People commit suicide to end the pain.
He did give up obviously.
People knew him, never say that!! His true soul was what he shared. The horribly sad truth is that depression/anxiety/complete sense of hopelessness is NOT what a person is. It’s a factor they deal with, often in silence. He was and will always be the sweet, kind, positive, beautiful soul!!! RIP sweet, sweet soul 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
I totally agree! I've experienced it!
That is called an Evil Spirit that if a person doesn't have an close relationship with God that one spirit will begin to draw other evil spirits 💯 C'mon people this is just my opinion if you don't agree well I understand that 👈
🙌
@@kingjohn553 Did you forget that God is our creator, he can forgive, and this was probably just his fate....
Yep!!! We keep a mask on bit when it gets bad, it's horrible!!
Stop saying “he gave up”. He gave so much of himself to bring joy to so many. He’s as human as the rest of us. Please don’t minimize his life.
I’m glad his Dean said that we did know him, just because one ends their life through suicide doesn’t mean they were living a double life, tWitch could be a caring, generous, loving person who also obviously had some darkness that he was going through. I will always be grateful to have witnessed his beautiful art and wonderful spirit all of these years, he certainly will be missed. Rest in power, King.
You never really know a person you just see them and say they ok but you can’t see beneath them do you don’t know, a lot of time people pretend to be happy
Depression and suicidal thoughts are not talked about enough, and within the POC community as a black man, I can’t even try to imagine how alone he felt. 💔
Especially among black men. Although that is changing.
How do you know he was depressed? All people who take their lives are not depressed sometimes it's other circumstances.
@@paulettefacianne7321 Better question: How do you know he wasn’t depressed?
So for 40 years he hid his symptoms that commentators say he allegedly had? If he had said issues it would have shown itself way before he was killed
@@paulettefacianne7321 I looked up some statistics for you seeing you clearly did not want to educate yourself before you commented! So I brought the information to you.
Suicide is a major health problem, and the global suicide mortality rate amounts to 1.4% of all deaths worldwide. Most suicides are related to psychiatric disease, with depression, substance use disorders and psychosis being the most relevant risk factors. However, anxiety, personality-, eating-, and trauma-related disorders, as well as organic mental disorders, also contribute.
Psychological autopsies from the middle of the previous century and onwards have revealed that most people who have died by suicide have suffered from mental disorders. A recent figure suggests this number could be at least 90%. On the other hand, most people with mental disorders do not die by their own hand. The risk of suicide has been estimated to be 5-8% for several mental disorders, such as depression, alcoholism and schizophrenia.
This needs to be investigated.
All day
Absolutely!! 👏👏
MmmmHmmmm
Agreee!!!
Why? He left his home willingly and and himself…you can look happy and no one but God knows what you’re going through.
I’m just so shocked like he seemed so happy he had 3 kids and a gorgeous wife I’m truly broken
ruclips.net/video/T70udk8IRBc/видео.html
Happy? So we all thought 💔
Even his wife said he was not acting like himself. She would know if he acted out of character. I agree this needs to be investigated. There has to be more. I hope he left a note. I hope we can all some day understand 😭☹️
She was cheating and he found out
She might’ve been watching the kids, or they had an argument and he walked out and she expected him to walk back in but he didn’t…
I know of someone in his late teens who ended his life-he was from a healthy family and seemed happy. But a controlling woman seduced him then threatened to say she raped him. He didn’t want to bring disgrace on his family so he ended his life before she brought charges. (She said either be with me or I’ll charge you with rape.) Often a controlling spirit is behind these things, using people.
I also know ADHD and autism increase the odds of suicidal thoughts and actions by about 9 times depending on the severity.
Clinical depression can sometimes be a physically-based thing, caused by inflammation, heavy metal toxicity, gut issues. (If you can’t digest food you can’t get the nutrients needed to create neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, even melatonin to sleep. These are chemicals needed for feelings of connection and happiness.)
Given the sudden change in Twitch’s behavior, I wonder if someone was blackmailing him or he felt shame about something.
I myself used to feel death was the only way out of my problems such as chronic fatigue and pain, harmful relationships, financial hopelessness, etc.
But if anyone is in that situation, God’s grace is enough, He will give you a new heart and purpose, if you ask Him in Jesus’ name. God always has a way. Put your faith in Him.

This case seems so odd to me. Why did Twitch joyfully say that he was looking forward to his wife having another baby someday, but then he committed suicide? Why did he continue to freely post playful dance videos instead of retreating from the public? Why did Twitch bother to bring a bag of clothes along with him if he didn’t intend on living long enough to change into them anyway? Why did he take his cell phone with him if he didn’t plan to use it or answer it? Why did Twitch rush to that hotel without his car? What did the surveillance cameras show at home and at the hotel? The investigation seems to have been closed too quickly. But maybe that’s just what the authorities are telling the public.
Meanwhile Twitch is sorely missed. My deepest condolences to his family especially his children. 🙏
With depression a person suffer major highs and lows behind the scenes. only knows his struggles
Nobody heard any shots either. It’s so sad and so strange.
It is so strange too me. Everyone is saying he was depressed how do we know this. Of course this could have been or may be he was being pressured into something or who knows maybe something behind closed doors so many possibilities best thing probably is to not even think about it cause we will never know twitch was the only one who knew and he is gone😢god bless his soul.
Sadly we can’t say why he did this because we can never know but twitch made his choices and decided to end his journey all we can do is pray for his Wife Allison and their there kids together so they can be Ok I have a feeling Sophia Grace did something
Latrice: I agree with you! I think there’s more to his story that needs to be investigated. None of this makes any sense. You don’t make plans for a future that you don’t plan to have! I’m not going to jump on the suicide bandwagon any time soon! I smell a rat!
This just shows how strong depression can be. This was a man who always got back up, kept fighting for what he wanted. This was a man who would come in a room and make everyone smile. But depression, it can get even the strongest of us. I've had anxiety and depression for over 40 yrs, I fight it every day, so I understand how it can take over. I hope his kids and wife have plenty of support.

This hurts so bad.. thanks for always making me smile Twitch.. you will be greatly missed. Rest In Peace.
I have to strongly disagree with the comment about not really knowing him! That comment was in terrible taste. We’re not talking about a serial killer, we’re talking about a beautiful, genuine man with a heart of gold… but no one saw the pain. He suffered in silence. Even through his pain, he made it his life’s mission to make others smile, laugh, love and never give up on dreams. I truly wonder what brought Twitch to leave, what happened that day in his mind. I wish for him and his beautiful family, that day could be replayed, with a much different result.
He was mad he was gone he said earlier he gave up too like it pissed him off
Amen
Twitch shared often the sadness he felt at the loss of black peoples lives from suspicious LE shootings. The hopelessness that nlthing was being done about all the shootings, especially since the George Floyd trial. He often brought up the various names of victims of police shootings, as if as a society we were already moving on and forgwtting them.
What we don't know is what really happened or what drove him to this if it's true.
@@Cynthiabecker24 I wonder if something happen at home that day?

Not a single person has a bad thing to say about him. He was a kind soul. Loved by everyone. We need more good people like him in this world.
I still can’t believe this beautiful man is gone, especially how it happened. He seemed so happy in his life, family, work and friends. He was one of my favourite parts of the Ellen show. It just shows us that we don’t always understand someone is going through depression. My ❤goes out to his wife and 3 children. So very sad for them. 😢 God bless all of them.
Many times the " strongest" among us may be at the breaking point..
Just because someone appears to have a " perfect life" doesn't mean they aren't struggling!
God rest him.
He seemed like a bundle of joy and fun.
I admired his dancing and joyful attitude.
RIP
I am crying in Australia over this loss.
So sad. 😢 If you have thoughts of suicide you should know God loves you no matter what you feel. Don’t take your own life. You are worthy of this life. That is why God created you!

I have been thinking this too! Something seems soo off!
@@Quadtuplitets he was blood sacrifice
Something brought total doom to him that morning. A phone call? $? Something! They were too close for him to abandon his family!
I agree. His wife said he left suddenly and without saying anything. Wonder what transpired before that. Such a loss.
Agreed.. he was around many people with power and money.. power and money also involves lies, cover ups, paying ppl to keep their mouths shut, controlling the media, framing murders, paying off medical examiners, lawyers, threats and many framed suicides
I think a pattern is emerging: in every single interview and story after his death, everyone says how positive and inspiring Twitch was. No one can be positive 100% of the time so the pattern is that he kept whatever was disturbing him to himself and no one around him had a clue that he was struggling. That's also why this is so shocking. I wish he had been well enough to share what was troubling him with someone so the burden he was carrying would have been lifted off of him, and he could still be here with his wife and kids for many years to come. Sending healing and strength to them and his family. RIP Twitch. Thank you for all the joy you brought to everyone you met.
I never understood when people would cry about a celebrity’s passing but I cried for this man… I’ve watched him since he first started on SYTYCD and just enjoyed him and his family since then… May God comfort all those he left behind…RIP Twitch. Y’all check on and pray for those who are dealing with depression… may they know that they are always loved not only by God but may others…
Sometimes the mask of depression is the smile shown to the public, but the warmth of the smile never truly mirrors the soul. Please seek help if you feel unsafe in your soul. You are important and valuable and worth the fight to live. To those who are hurting and confused, I pray that you find healing and restoration Above all, be blessed 🙌🏻 ❤

Agree
1 day investagation completed. Yeap the Motel stayed open too!! But now they are closing....housekeeping already cleaned his room.🤨nd they closed his case.
Me either, something isn’t right about this.
Yeah. His death is very suspicious and weird. It doesn't make any sense. He could of been murdered and it was made to look like a suicide. Everyone in Los Angeles is CORRUPT. The Police, The Coroner, The Mayor all are corrupt. Keep in mind that Twitch knew very powerful people like Michelle Obama and Ellen. He knew so many Rich and powerful Celebrities like Channing Tatum, Jennifer Lopez and others. He has been in the Industry a long time. I am sure Twitch saw some weird Hollywood Rituals at some point in his life. This man could of been carrying lots of secrets that weighed heavy on his heart.
Why? He was struggling for a long time. He couldn't get over the social injustices in this world. He especially spoke of the police shootings of the black community. He felt as if those victims were being forgotten. Thats just what he shared on social media, who knows what other issues plagued him? He was a very emotionally driven person, so to those who are shocked, maybe do aome social media digging.
There is something giant missing here. Something was hurting him really bad mentally 😢
For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a seemingly happy, generous, positive soul can end his life with sooo much love surrounding him. A life that most of us can only dream of. May he finally have eternal peace now. Twitch, you'll always be in my heart. My heart goes out too his loved ones.
It's beyond heartbreaking! I'm dealing with a lot of sorrow right now. A close childhood friend passed away from Cancer and now this beautiful man took his life without so much as a note. This is weighing heavily on me and I am so saddened. So close to his wife, yet she said there were no issues. Majority of people are assuming he had been suffering from depression, but what IF it was something else? Something could have been ongoing in his life that Allison did not want to reveal to the public (and that is her right). Just a very tragic occurrence all around. Of all the people who have passed away outside a friend or family member, this has crushed me the most!
I’m still shocked over this, as we all are. We know the Twitch that he gave us; we don’t know behind the scenes at home or what he may have wrestled with, but for me, it would be more believable if news reported he was murdered, rather than a suicide 3 days after his wedding anniversary, right before Christmas, children and all.
I think there’s more to this, no matter what it may be, and I pray for his family & inner circle to make sense & heal from this in their own time. 💔
I know I can’t wait until Allison speaks more about what was going on. I just don’t understand it still.
Yeah something really bad was going on in his life that people didn't know about. But I bet his wife knows what happened and why.
@@dextermoore278 of course she knows…and he committed a couple of days after their anniversary which makes me believe they got into an argument and she must’ve said something to him and he just lost.

He was putting on a act. Had depression inside but didn’t wanna let the world see or feel his pain because it is contagious
Looking back at his interviews, it was definitely a layer of depression. He was very somber but had the right words & a smile.
This man has been killed
@@ericaseymour3732 Yes and I see it in his eyes
I wondered about that too like he was extremely happy all the time and that must be too much to have to put on I think he deserve to be sad too but nobody ever saw that
Can they check phone records or messages to see if there was something that week that might have lead to this ?
Girl, I’m telling you no one is believing this. I’m so confused.
Probably money issues
Anne Heche, Leslie Jordan, and tWitch all died this year. The common denominator..Ellen..coincidence, conspiracy, idk..just sayin🤷🏾♂️
left the house without the car?? he left and slept in a hotel... 1 night ... Then he sadly killed himself! .. 1 day 1 night away, i dont get it. Why isnt she talking about that? something is very very wrong in this.
I hate when people reduce the mental anguish to say they "gave up"!! No. He couldn't find his way through the turmoil. Show compassion ❤️ 🙏 We'll never know what he was going through, and it isn't our place to. We typically don't handle loss and grief well because it reminds us how little we control our lives. Sending hugs and light 🤗 ✨️
The fact that he had such a beautiful family and career ADDS to the depression like, u have everything but ur still not happy… imagine that hopeless feeling… what now, then the guilt associated with feeling sad or hopeless or less then and being active, dancing having an outlet STILL isn’t enough…
‘He never gave up…it’ll never make sense’ - this is precisely what it so often is. People who never give up because they put undue pressure on themselves and will never let it show. It’s part of the toxicity of our society’s culture of never giving up/determining what giving up looks like. It makes all the sense if people just stop to think and j swear and how much pressure is put on individuals to give it their all, all the time. R.I.P. ❤ you are enough ❤️
No regard for three little kids.
Wow I’m still in a state of Shock… I’ve watched him back in 2008 on SYTYCD competition where he blew me away with his talent. People can speculate but no one will truly know but God. I heard a quote many years ago from someone about suicidal individuals was… The pain of living overtakes the fear of dying. RIP Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss. Always remembered never forgotten.
Billy, please don’t say people didn’t know him. Especially to the people that truly know him. He was that beautiful soul we all think he was. Mental illness, our struggles etc. are not who we are. They do not define us! It is a small part but sometimes can become the loudest and take over but please don’t diminish him down to his struggles and say to people who love him, that they didn’t know him! It’s extremely insensitive and hurtful! Rest In Power Stephen “tWitch” Boss, you will most definitely be missed by many! 💙 I hope your soul is at peace!
@ElleR Beautifully said. I couldn't agree more.
He was just talking about wanting another child. This just doesn't make sense. Although it appears to be suicide, I really want to hear the results of an autopsy. He was requested people to sign a petition regarding policy brutality. Something just isn't right here.
Why would he do this specially around xmas 😢 his poor family won’t have that last xmas experience with him and will always remember this tragedy around the holidays
Yes you can know a person,when depression creeps in,that is usually something people keep to themselves,for different reasons. God rest his soul, condolences to his wife and children,his mom,friends,and fans....
He was definitely a very sensitive guy. So so sad. I didn’t even know him and he just radiated warmth and kindness. He had beautiful kind light filled eyes. Condolences to his lovely wife and beautiful children.
This should be investigated! Ever since I watched him on the show in 2008, I've never really forgotten him! Him and Ellen loved each other on her show....his ever present smile was his signature.
I will always remember him ❤ this is heartbreaking and shows that EVERYONE can suffer with depression. So so sad that he couldn't get the help he needed 😭

Something was going on that the public doesn't know. Something was obviously happening in his life that led to this. Only those closest to him will know what that is.
I can assure you that nobody wakes up one morning and decides to committ suicide without a long gestation period. Or something significant happens in an instant and it feels insurmountable leading to a tragic decision.
Just because you don't know why, doesn't mean there was no reason.
Even so, this likely could have been prevented. It's sad no matter what.
Agree. This man loved his kids too much and seemed to have compassion. Just can't see someone like him taking their life knowing they are leaving so much devastation and sorrow behind.. So tragic and sad. My heart goes out to his family♥️
I highly agree it just doesn't make sense.
Exactly!!
I couldn’t agree more. Sending love from the Philippines 🇵🇭.
Yeah something smells fishy! Did he have a history of mental health issues? Documented? Was he seeing a therapist? Did he leave a suicide note? Did he open up to close family and friends that he was struggling mentally?

Woah! I just caught that! …. Allison ran to the police station and told the cops they had been in a fight… why else would this start out as a DV investigation…… what was really going on in that house! They were fighting about something!
@@Mallory_May but the age is still wrong. So it may not even be about them.
Depression sometimes get the best of us and we don't know why, it confuses us all. Our thoughts are with his family may Stephen 'tWitch' RIP.♥
SIP.....God's guidance for his bereaved wife and children....
I as someone who suffers from severe depression, knows that we are very good at hiding our moods when we are suffering from an episode. I can tell you that one sign is when we hide away from the world, and cancel appointments, call off from work and not talk to friends or family that we normally will talk to. We go into a shell and just stay there. We stay away from the WORLD IN GENERAL. We are very good at hiding as I said when we are going through episodes that are Soo severe that no one knows how we are truly feeling. It is so very sad that it came to this with 'tWitch', it was too late for anyone to know that he needed help. I can say another thing and that is if you have someone in your life, suffering from severe depression, look for changes in their daily life pattern, as his wife noticed, that is the first give away that something is wrong. I have suffered with mental illness for the majority of my lifetime. I go to regular therapy sessions and am medicated. My doctor's are terrific and whenever I am going through an episode I reach out to them and they are there. RIP young man, the world lost a beautiful person too soon.
Prayers for his family! The enemy comes not but to kill, steal and destroy. But ,I have come that you might have life and life more abundantly. Please remember this world and its problems are temporary. Whatever you are going through give it to God. Life is tough, but He is the only one that can help us face life and our problems with peace knowing that He will work it out. I dealt with depression for two whole years and it was tough, no one around me unstood what I was going through and just wanted me to snap out of it, BUT GOD, delivered me! Praised be His holy name. No matter what you are facing please turn to Him He loves you and cares for you so much! Unfortunately we live in a fallen world, so everyone will go through trials and tribulations, just keep the faith 🙏
He is and will always be special!! So confused by this action.
~Stephen tWitch Boss was a phenomenally inspiring man...I instantly became overjoyed every time I saw photos/videos of him with his family, when he danced, served as host, judge, or whenever he was being interviewed...May he rest in peace & may his loved ones cherish the memories they shared with him forever...Blessings for his family! ❤🌹
His gentle smile and kindness, didn’t over power the fact he was numb inside just going with the flow of life.
I cry every time I see someone who knew him - share their story. It's truly shocking. So very sad for Allison. She adored that man and was his biggest fan and supporter. They were a great family unit. I don't know how she and those precious children will get through this. Prayers for Allison and their kids. Peace and Healing. We now have to celebrate Twitch and be grateful for the time we had him here. None of us will ever know the reasons, only God knows. God has a new Angel in Heaven now. So very grateful for the time he graced us with his presence, joy and energy. What a man, What a Light filled with so much love.
You can know people, but no one knows what’s in a person’s mind
Exactly
You never know anyone!
The truth will come out....prayers to his wife, children, family and friends..RIP
I’m side eyeing the wife. Twitch seemed like a gentle soul (aka pushover ). He always reminded me of my friend.
My friend is soft spoken, gentle and kind man and insecure behind closed doors with his gf. We didn’t like her because she would verbally and mentally abuse him and even more so once out of out of sight. We were finally able to get him to open up about it after he was with her for years. He went through A LOT more than we knew and hid it from us because he didn’t want us to hate her. No one would ever know if he hadn’t went into details later.
What did Twitch go through to do this? All that glitters isn’t gold. Be the one a friend can feel safe to talk to. This is so sad and shocking.
Agreed, he looked unhappy for a few years now.
People in the comments are concluding it must be side effects of his medication. Do you know he is on medication if so how do you know? Also, saying he was hiding his depression? Did you assess him at the hospital to verify that? We have yet to get solid information from the family and friends. So far it looks suspicious due to his being 40 years old with no known issues with depression or suicide attempts. So until we get the full truth everyone will speculate but try not to make it sound like facts.
Twitch I tell you I've suffered many of losses in my own family. his loss is like hitting the iceberg in the sea your heart goes numb so not real so unexpected can't stop thinking about him or his wife I pray that she gets through this I'll tell you it's hard on me and I just can't imagine her pain or Ellen. 💔
It makes a lot more sense with his friends speaking out than listening to the media and entertainment channels that just want to make a story out of it!
This doesn’t seem right. Something shady is going on. The man was talking about having more children, why would he do this? I do not believe he died on his own terms.
he goes for a walk and she panics and contacts police??? strange reaction from the wife......
And she said that was out of his character too? So why so panicky..
Depression is something we all should start taking it seriously by discussing it and having it expressed. Keeping it within is exhausting and mind blowing. it's very scary when it starts feeling the mind with thoughts of giving up. All in all 'tWitch' Boss was an amazing person to so many out there. He was a genuine person with a big heart. I cannot believe something like this happened. He will be truely remembered and to his beloved wife & children our prayers are with you all 😢❤
“The guy who never gave up, gave up!!???!!??”. Shame on him for saying that. COMPLETELY EMOTIONLESS AND WRECKLESS and can emotionally harm his loved ones.
Totally agree… such a thoughtless .. cruel statement to make … He didn’t give up .. in that split second something clicked for him … May he RIP 🙏🏻🌹
If you are contemplating suicide, please seek immediate help. Life is worth living.
Alcohol is a depressant.
Wow, never thought he killed himself. I feel sad he was always wonderful. ❤❤❤❤
We don’t know if he killed himself
@@Awillii ..Exactly!..people believe everything the media tells us..So gullible and brainwashed.
So hard to understand how someone with this much love from and for others couldn't hold on for someone to lift him up! What a tragedy!
The constant smiles on anyone is fake, and a show but inside dying
Outro music was unnecessary
Why are so many people so quick to accept 'suicide' before a complete investigation. Every other possibility of foul play should be ruled out, and they really haven't had enough time to do that.
exactly & for anyone who’s saying that’s disrespectful think of if someone did hurt him he deserves the respect of us knowing the truth & anyone who hurt him brought to justice
The investigation is complete and ruled as suicide. He may have left a note. The police don't investigate further, if ruled a suicide.
At least there should be a full investigation.
@@Spucky50 But ruled by who?
@@user-cu1jr3lg7z maybe you should investigate it.
It does not make sense to me either. Lord, please bring the truth to light
Unfortunately, this is the truth. Suicide will never make sense to a non-sufferer. We can never know anyone else's thoughts 100%. Please accept this news and understand, that he is no longer suffering, which obviously was so painful for him.
@@traceytracey3756 shut up this is homicide
@@suadosman7542 Btw, tell yo stank mammy to shut the fuck up and get off your neighbors di"k.
Depression can happen as a child that will last your lifetime. Wanting to not let your parent or parents know and keep them happy, you learn to hide and how to act!! Many comedians and very up people only appear to others happy, fun to be with and funny!! No one knows, not even the closest of family or friends!
Always be kind to each other you never know what someone is going through 🙏
Depression is all about one weak moment 😢
So what is the new details?
I do not understand how people with kids commit suicide. It's so irresponsible. It'll leave them with deep trauma for their whole life. So terrible!
Something is really sus about his death. I hope the truth will be brought to light.
We’re all trying to understand, but am afraid we won’t, it’s horrific that the woman whom he loved and married, and the mother of his three children who all loved him so much wasn’t enough to make him fight harder to stay with them😢
What a memory and a reality to deal with, Omg 😮
This country does not do enough for the mentally ill I've had 3 nephews commit suicide I have one son bipolar and a husband I watch Them like a hawk and I have Been there for them to go to the doctor's visit Because They twist the truth when they're in their high medic state I never let them straight too far now my husband is dying of dementia I'm caring for him 24,/7 At the same time I take care of my son very hard no one helps me I need to take my husband to the neurologist his develop Seizures He needs to be either and lay back wheelchair Reclines Or a gurney cannot find the transportation financially that I can affor Cannot find the Who could help me no one seems to be able to help me in the meantime hes laying in bed having these horrible seizures a horrible wound in his back that doesn't heal and Kaiser says they can't do anything And medical says we don't qualify But all the legals and everybody else qualifies except us how pay it into the system and now we need Where is the Justice
so what are the new details?
This world can make you depressed. The way things are unfolding in this world with just full of hate and killings and negative can break down a person
This is so very sad. I can’t believe this is actually real. I started watching his and Allison’s videos during covid lockdowns and just am at a loss for words 😢This is heartbreaking. We truly lost a wonderful person.
All too often the ones that seem the strongest, the ones that seem to have it all together and smile all the time, most often are the saddest from the weight of it all. Often We’re forced to be strong for everyone, to be the “fix it” for everyone and because of that, we forget that we need our own self care. RIP. You were a beautiful soul ❤
Exactly…that’s me
It's the people that you do not expect to take their own life, like Robin Williams, you just never know what somebody's going through mentally they look happy on the outside but inside they're dying and they're miserable 💔
It was later revealed that Robin Williams was suffering from a severe case of Lewy Body Dementia and was suffering neurologically and physically because of it. If an autopsy is performed on Twitch, perhaps it will be discovered that he too was suffering from some sort of physical or neurological disorder as this suicide just seems so unlikely and unexpected.
Robin Williams was physically ill and could not work any longer. No comparison..
I saw him first at so you think you can dance and he was instantly my favorite contestant. He was full of energy and quick to smile, and he stayed the same throughout his life. He was the all positive kind of guy but sometimes people use that happy vibe as a shield. They don’t want people to see that brokenness inside because if we do then it will show how real it is. I think he ran away from all his true feelings/thoughts/fears ... and they finally caught up with him. He gave a huge fight.
This made me so sad and heartbroken. I pray for family. I have battled depression and anxiety over 32 yrs and it’s hard! But please, when you feel like you are at the end and can’t take it anymore, no matter what it is….PLEASE GET HELP!!!! I promise you no matter what it is, past, present or future, there are loved ones that will help you through. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
