Yes it is still hard and his bday is tomorrow 4/13 😢 i remember as a teen how all i cared about was watching SQDSV , i grew up watching him , he was part of my childhood and teen years and i remember the phone call i got from my bff the day he passed like it was yesterday. I just pray he is at peace and has crossed over to be with Jesus.🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

[@DurandClay]

Great Actor ... It's A Shame He Passed Away.

[@jonzfriend]

Fun, even if the guy NEVER gets his last name right. People who met him were mesmerized, and wanted to touch him, as if some of that "light" would rub off. By the way, he didn't use Accutane. He barely allowed himself an aspirin once in a while.He was pretty much what you see - a really great guy, missed much in a world that truly needs that.

[@rickypartington3594]

He didn't use it? I clearly remember seeing a statement where his mother Mary stated he did use Accutane to treat his Acne.

[@BrookeWinter82]

I loved this ride. I didn't know you went under a full blown water fall, and didn't take a rain poncho. My hair and make-up were done really nice (I was in California visiting my boyfriend-it was the first time we had met too), so I spent the day with not so flattering hair, but my sunglasses saved my eye make-up. It was a awesome ride though!! 🐲 RIP to my childhood mega crush, Jonathan Brandis. 💔

[@haruruben]

🥲 they looked so happy.

[@sumoni]

Still bummed this guy died. Just like Lee Thompson Young. It is really hard to know the reason someone commits suicide unless they say so themselves. It could be one thing or a number of things. Point is something triggers the person enough to take their life but they were struggling with it for years. I really hope there is an afterlife for those nice people like Johnathan that can't live on this one.

[@1000-8-]

He was my crush so bad... I knew about his death until 2006 surchin' for him on internet, I really had the hope of meeting him some day. 💔 My childhood love, my teenage crush, my fan's love will be always with him 💔

They made a really good couple. Pity they split up and he committed suicide. She was devastated - does anyone know if it was linked or was it the acne medicine he was on?

[@shelly-annbrown1854]

+Marnia Khan I heard he was taking Accutane at the time, which is a very strong acne medication that causes mental side effects.

[@81laurenjean]

You can't really put a definitive reason on suicide.

[@Johnsmith-pe8ie]

There are many reasons people think of, but it's not for sure. A friend said he had been depressed for a while, but no for sure answer. Much love to him, rest in peace.

[@raymonddaubney3612]

I read he was upset about his career as a Movie Director had flopped.

[@BrookeWinter82]

Danielle Harris said she had fallen in love with him before his suicide, claiming they were best friends, but ended up secretly dating. (Who knows if that's true-it could have been one sided on her part, but she swears they were together secretly). She was pretty convinced he had an undiagnosed mental condition, but his friends just attributed it to him just "being Jonathan". Leaving no note must have made it so hard on those closest to him. **Oh, she also mentioned his career had absolutely nothing to do with him killing himself.**

Dudes/Girls i’m 40 now and it still bothers me. I truly feel for some people they can’t separate the roles 100% from reality (ie Heath Ledger). The subconscious is powerful and picks up things.

He killed himself because of waning fame and fallen career. If only he knew, if he would have waited, the way social media and the modern world is now, everyone is instagram and KZbin famous and all these channels like Netflix and Amazon Prime are well known for reviving actors' careers.
