    I’m a 20 year old line cook and I’ve been working the line since I was 15. I used to get off work late and even though I was tired of the kitchen I could never get enough of his shows. I’m paraphrasing “you do this whole show and dance then you clean up go home and get ready to do it all over again”. Still after I get off work I like to sit back and watch him while having a beer just like I used to at 15 lol. He used to say that lots of cooks come from broken homes and when they are in the kitchen they find the only organization in their lives. I grew up with bipolar disorder which came on at a young age due to severe drug abuse, split parents, poverty, depression, being arrested 3 times before I was 18 once being carried away in shackles to the hospital. Nothing has ever made me feel more at home than the kitchen. Even when I come home stressed out there’s nothing I’d rather do with my life. Cooking is my peace and Anthony has always been my biggest inspiration. Many times I’ve contemplated suicide but I’ve gone on sometimes only because other people couldn’t. I miss you so much Anthony but your words will always ring on in my head and keep me going till the last ticket is printed. Rest in power

      @TheBajemo The week before he commited suicide, I think, *Kate Spade killed herself in the same way... and she had a young daughter too*
      No one should have the right to judge someone who commited suicide.
      That is
      Anthony Bourdain said he felt he was... an intruser ?
      Please find and watch the episode when he speaks to a spychologist. How many years ago ? Hmmm...

      @@isabelleb.1270 Exactly. He also talked about only being happy for a few minutes at a time. He talked about his depression and how something as simple as ordering a bad hamburger at an airport could send him into a deep depression for weeks. The man was suffering with major depression and no one, not even his daughter could have been enough. When you are feeling hopeless to the point of thinking about enduring your life you are not thinking rational. All you want is for the pain to stop and feel nothing. That is why it’s very dangerous to be alone when you’re thinking like this because you literally can’t trust yourself. What he needed was to reach out to to someone to seek professional help. Possible medication and therapy have helped millions including myself and my boyfriend. I know in the days leading up to his suicide he unfollowed his girlfriend on Instagram when the pictures came out in the tabloids of her with another man. I watched his final documentary about his life and the people who worked close with him says he was completely infatuated with her. To the point were he was allowing her to direct one of his shows even though she has no experience and allowing her to make decisions on the set that he would have normally been against.

    • @stephenpitkin5492
      @stephenpitkin5492 6 років тому +2

      imbonnie. Thank you for your retraction, and I know what you mean. Your observations are very valid. In some cases, though that's just the way the caregiver processes and at the same time blocks out the pain of empathizing with the other person, which can be so overwhelming as to be impossible to comprehend. It reminds me of a scene in a David Lynch movie where a girl who has just been in a severe car accident and probably will die is wandering around the scene of the wreckage all bloody, complaining that she can't find her hair clip and that her mother will kill her because she lost her hair clip. I think in wartime situations, too, people can focus on and complain of trivial things as a way of attempting to manage something that is staggeringly senseless. This is just another way of looking at it. I've had a kind of survivor's guilt for a really long time, guilty that I am able bodied and he isn't. It is still hard to tell him that I recently enjoyed a bike ride or had a terrific workout without feeling that I'm accidentally lording it over him. I just hope he can enjoy it vicariously through me the way I enjoy traveling the world vicariously through Anthony Bourdain. It's funny how hard it can be communicating with people on social media. I was trying to illustrate gratitude, but in order to really show the gratitude I had to show some sort of need that was filled. That came across to you as complaining. I have to laugh in a way. I'm glad we cleared it up, though. Thanks for sharing your observations about insensitive caregivers. I hope you have a great day.

      That being said I got this Italian lady that takes care of me...
      She can make me literally almost any Italian dish...and better than most.
      (I’m killing it... i know.., I’m spoiled, but grateful too)Cooking is her passion, and mine. I come up with different recipes and ideas...and she does the rest. For now, we are taking a stab at Asian foods! 🍜Irish stew not too long ago, Mexican, etc...Food is our common bond between us. We talk food a lot ; and I often mention tony...ugggh : (

    I will tell you with much confidence and truth. I'm 35 a kitchen manager who is on the line 45 hours a week. In the busiest restaurant around - Anthony Bourdain is an icon to many old heads and young bloods around. He was a breath of fresh air for many of us during his 15 minutes of fame.
    Sad to see him go but the bottom line shows you many of us are struggling far beyond what we display.
    I'm not religious what so ever. But may you all stay blessed and understand your value!

      Bourdain was continually learning new things about himself and about other people. Any of his loyal followers could see that, even vegetarians like me. At every moment in his life, once he had gotten over his early addiction to heroin, he was growing and inspiring people he worked with to push the boundaries of their craft. That's not the mark of a depressive who's at the end of his road. How can someone who increasingly gives others new reasons to live have given up on his own life? It doesn't make sense.

    You would often hear him say-
    "now that was made with love"
    And that is exactly what he stood for.
    You will be missed sir.

    Men like Anthony Bourdain, Charles Barkley and Dave Chappell have/had the ability to say “anything” which usually represented the unvarnished truth. One a story teller, one an athlete and the other a comedian, yet accepted in society as real, transparent voices with compassion for all people. We all can learn from these three vastly different, yet similar, public figures.
