Sometimes our biggest enemy is ourselves. It's truly sad. :(

Very sad, so talented and repped NYC to the fullest. Don't hesitate to ask for help when it comes to your mental health.

I can't say it enough times yall, if you're dealing with depression or suicidal thoughts...please talk to somebody. I've dealt with that kinda loss and it is BRUTAL. Condolences to her family and loved ones, RIP to a woman with real talent and if there's anything that I hope comes from this it's just more mental health awareness and appreciation for the need to offer that field more empathy and understanding.

I didn't realize she left behind a 13 year old daughter too. That's got to be rough going forward for her as well.

she was a FORCE, man. this is rough. my wife closet cluttered with kate spade heat right now.

she and i were just talking about how you never know what someone's going through or how much pain/torment they're experiencing. no matter how much they have or how good life looks from the outside. always tough to hear.

The strain of the industry could've gotten to her too, or have been part of the problem.

The fashion industry is cut throat all around. Probably the roughest of all industries. Moreso even than the Music or Movies industries.

May I recommend that people watch/listen to lectures of Alan Watts and Eckhart Tolle on youtube if you are depressed. They will give you a different perspective and definitely something to think about in terms of changing your perspective. And definitely seek out a therapist. I did three years ago. Best move I ever made. Except that I wish I had only done it 30 years ago.

Agreed about mental health and talking to somebody, anybody.

That’s why it’s disappointing when people come on this forum and start a thread that’s personal and serious and instead are met with jokes and gifs.

I get it, it’s a basketball forum. It’s all in good fun. But some people who makes those topics don’t have anyone else to talk to and just want to share what’s on their mind. I’m not specifically referring to anyone starring a thread about suicide but just serious situations where they reach out and ask advice. It’s the internet, sure, but words can still have an effect on the internet.

From her sister:

Looks like the pressure of her business snapped her.
