Why did Leslie Cheung choose to die?

Because in Leslie Cheung's value system, life itself is not the highest value.

compared with cutting wrists, gas and sleeping pills, jumping off a building is absolutely irreversible. My brother committed suicide by taking sleeping pills in November, 22. Mr. Tang found out that he was rescued. It can be said that he was determined to die and would choose to jump off the building for the second time.

In my opinion, the deep motivation of his suicide is the same as that of his coming out of the closet, a control desire rooted in his heart-trying to control his life.

In fact, this decision is also decisive: he can't guarantee the result of coming out.

Next, I want to talk about my understanding of Leslie Cheung's inner world.

Sometimes artists are unhappy, which is regarded as "doing" by others ~~

There is a story circulating among fans-after a performance, Leslie Cheung returns backstage and sulks with himself. Mr. Tang poured a cup of hot water and handed it to him, but he took it and slammed it on the ground. -What's next?

Mr. Tang smiled and took another cup of hot water and handed it to him.

Leslie Cheung is a perfectionist. Mr. Tang once told him that if others get 7%, they will be satisfied, and you have to achieve 9%. You can never be satisfied, so it's pathetic.

According to Shi Nansheng, all the clothes in Leslie Cheung are arranged from short to long, and from shallow to deep, with the same spacing. After taking out the clothes, just shake the hanger gently and the wardrobe will return to its original state. When he was young, he would proudly demonstrate this process to his friends like an urchin.

He moves a lot, and there are many things at home, but it only takes him one day to move. He planned everything in advance, remembered clearly what was in each box, what to move first and then what to move, and put it away immediately when he got to his new home. He can't stand the mess.

The above is actually the manifestation of obsessive-compulsive disorder (everyone has obsessive-compulsive disorder to some extent, with different manifestations).

Leslie Cheung's heart is full of innate obsession with beauty, and the behavior of "pursuing beauty" is the internal driving force that runs through his whole life. Only by artistic creation can we satisfy his perfectionist hobby of beauty.

(To cite a few similar examples: Takehiko Inoue built a seven-story work building in the suburbs of Tokyo, with its own elevator, and only ate instant noodles for lunch ... all this is to save time and avoid interrupting the idea of writing The Odyssey. It is said that Michelangelo used to work for seven days in a row, and when he was tired, he lay down with his clothes. After the sculpture was finished, he found that his feet were frozen in his boots and he wanted to rest, so he cut off the soles of his shoes with a blade and attached them bloody to the soles of his feet. Maybe people would tend to say that the master was careless, but I want to say that the happiness of an artist comes from the process of concentration until the work is perfect. )

To engage in artistic creation is itself a road of no return to mental pain. The more beautiful and pure the work, the more it comes from the author's profound compassion. Leslie Cheung, a teenager, pursues becoming a star. He always thinks that fame and fortune are his due things with his own talent and hard work, and only those who are sincere to him are godsend. After he retired from the music scene, he chose to come back. At this time, the greatest influence on him was Kundera's Unbearable Lightness in Life. I agree with this sentence: love can't bear the weight of life, but career can. He said that it is almost my instinct to capture the subtleties of human emotions and show them on the screen. In my personal understanding, Leslie Cheung, who achieved economic freedom, came back because she chose artistic creation to carry the meaning of life. After his comeback, he didn't take any commercial advertisements, but tried various styles and constantly broke through himself.

The terrible thing about depression is that patients feel desperate because of it, and despair urges them to commit suicide. The nervous and endocrine systems of depressed patients are destroyed, and the physiological adjustment mechanism for ordinary people to get out of emotional difficulties is lost.

If we want to find out why Leslie Cheung, a star, suffers from depression, we need to know his inner world deeply. There are many fans of glory and post-glory. We have spent a lot of time getting to know our idol seriously, and then we find that we agree with his values so much and are persistent and unrepentant.

It's difficult to explain complex problems clearly with simple conclusions. My personal opinion is that his personal growth and experiences in his youth are likely to make people suffer from depression. And many people have different degrees of depression, but they don't know it without obvious symptoms. Leslie Cheung experienced the outbreak of depression, reached the turning point of fate, and chose his own destination. I think he is desperate about his illness. Although the doctor told him that depression can be treated, he actively cooperated with various treatment schemes, but the result was despair, and he still couldn't control his bad mood, lost his execution and inner peace, and brought pain to his family (ten years ago, the medical profession didn't know as much about depression as it does today).

Although we live in the same world, our perceptions of the same thing are very different. Leslie Cheung said that life should be wasted on beautiful things. He can't live a dignified and beautiful life according to his own will, and he doesn't accept such a life. Even if onlookers can persuade him that he will survive this period and will be better in the future; And in it, he may feel that the belief that "all troubles will be solved" is invalid in this situation. And he came to his own conclusion with personal experience: effective suicide behavior should be taken.

After the German officer failed to assassinate Hitler, General Baker, one of the masterminds, was allowed to kill himself, but he was never able to shoot himself. The old general has been in the battlefield for a long time, and he is old and virtuous, and he is dedicated to justice. He still misses his life very much. I don't mean to say that he lacks courage, but I want to emphasize that in his behavior, the nature of nostalgia for life has prevailed. In Leslie Cheung's value system, life itself is not the highest value. The illness is so serious that only death can end its influence, so he will make a way out by himself, which is the embodiment of his "initiative" character, not his weakness for fate.

ps: I've seen related reports about the incident of breaking the cup in Jurongtang's chat section and newspapers. I tend to think that this is indeed the case, and some details may be increased or decreased in the communication.

Leslie Cheung died of depression, which was confirmed by people around him.

The cause of Leslie Cheung's suicide has finally been answered. He was suffering from pathological depression and chose to leave in that way, so what is pathological depression? This kind of depression is caused by a painful substance secreted by the brain. Unlike the depression that can be cured the day after tomorrow, pathological depression cannot be cured, and patients need to suffer all their lives. Therefore, in order to end this pain as soon as possible, Leslie Cheung played the biggest "joke" with everyone on April Fool's Day 14 years ago, hoping that there would be no depression in heaven.

In addition, Leslie Cheung is under great emotional pressure. Everyone knows that Leslie Cheung is gay. He often quarrels with his male friends. In addition, he is getting older and his appearance is not as good as before, which makes him very upset. This may also be the reason why he suffers from depression!

Leslie Cheung's death shocked the whole Hong Kong society and even the whole world

While everyone was talking about Leslie Cheung's death, a radio station in Hong Kong broadcasted the final truth of the death announced by Leslie Cheung's elder sister Look Ping Cheung: "My brother Leslie Cheung has been ill for a long time, and his illness is depression. There are two kinds of depression, one is congenital, called physiological depression, which is mainly caused by the imbalance of chemical secretion in the brain; Another kind of depression is caused by acquired environmental factors, which is caused by unhappiness. Leslie Cheung unfortunately suffers from the first type of depression. " . ? Leslie Cheung's elder sister revealed that he had calculated that he was 46 years old.

Look Ping Cheung revealed that she thought that Leslie Cheung was suffering from depression because of excessive pressure in the entertainment circle.

Everyone knows what kind of disease depression is. There are not a few actors who commit suicide because of depression. Some time ago, Kimi, an artist, also committed suicide by burning charcoal at home because of the unbearable depression.

Before committing suicide, Leslie Cheung faced great pressure from all sides. First of all, before he committed suicide, Mr. Tang, his male friend, often quarreled with each other, during which some neighbors heard the sound of smashing furniture. Because Leslie Cheung is gay, he is emotionally troubled. And Leslie Cheung is too old to keep her face. This also bothers him. An actor like Leslie Cheung.

I put all my feelings into the play. There is a saying that he is particularly suitable. "The heart is more than a trick, and the disease is as good as the west." Such people have very delicate feelings. So many troubles in life are easy to cause him trouble. This may be the cause of his depression.

depression. Lack of a substance in the body, physiological depression, is not the same as psychological depression. When you have a depression, you will have hallucinations and then make uncontrollable behaviors. Stars are human beings, and they will get sick just like ordinary people. Because Mr. Zhang, let many people know the horror of depression. If there are people with depression, give more care and tolerance!
