Fair enough, yes. But I do wonder if it's a little "rougher" there than it may seem to be underneath all that "glitter." The star of the Transformers movies - I forget her name - said recently that cocaine (for example) has been making a big comeback in Hollywood in the past few years. I'm not saying these deaths were drug-related; I just mean that it sometimes seems to me that people who have lived there might "have some right behind them" when they say that that town "isn't always all it's cracked up to be."
Personally, more than anything though, I blame depression - - - as a neural disease, I mean. (And maybe the "stigma" that sometimes can go along with it.)
