"I feel like it is still my duty to take responsibility for my own actions. Sometimes I tend to forget that I am a public figure and with that, comes a lot of responsibility and suicide is not the type of message I want to send out. This is not one of my proudest moments to share with the world, but maybe it can help save someone else's life who ends up reading this."
