The information and support thread is here (http://websleuths.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49887).

I've collected 6 websites Michael made over the years, 7 if you include his locked MySpace. I'm not posting them yet, though -- I am wondering if anyone knows whether or not Michael had issues with depression. He seems to have been very artistic, in multiple ways, and as someone with a performing arts background and major depression and bipolar disorder running in my family, I certainly tend to suspect depression in a missing person as creative as Michael McKeithan appeared to be.

However, he did go into a situation that drew people from all over the country, so the variables as to what happened are pretty broad.

The subject has always interested me. My family is full of artistic geniuses (music, art, writing) and lots of depression. Very sensitive souls...

I'll have to look for that book.

Just looking at Michael's picture made me think he was a very sensitive, serious person. Hard to tell from a picture but that was my impression.

Not fair. I'm depressed often and have absolutely no artistic talent!! Trust me, I tried and I stink at everything artistic.

Seriously though, I saw this young man's picture and it broke my heart. He reminds me of some of my husbands close friends from when we were in high school. I do think there is a definite link. They say genius is a curse, and I think artistic genius is no exception.
