Comment posted Joaquin Phoenix on Drugs on David Letterman by Gina.

I think it is a crime and a shame that a lot of people find humor in this disturbing interview. Obviously, Joaquin Phoenix is not “ok” at this point in his life. Whatever he is experiencing, drug use/abuse, emotional/psychological issues, it is not a laughing matter. It is hurtful and painful to see that our society is so ignorant about mental health issues and/or drug abuse. What if that was your brother, father, significant other on that stage?? Would you appreciate people laughing at them?? I am going to pray for Joaquin that he gets whatever help he needs. (and I am not a religious person.) He is a terrific actor and let’s hope he gets help and gets through whatever it is that he is experiencing. He certainly was not himself the other day. Thanks for reading.
