London, August 13 - Robin Williams' neighbors have revealed that he was battling depression and was tormented by cash problems before he committed suicide.

Sources revealed that he was in misery at having to return to TV at the age of 63 and signing films that he didn't want to do, because he was cash strapped as his two divorces had cost him 20million pounds, the Mirror reported.

They added that he looked terrible and just a shadow of his former self, as he had lost all his weight and look exceptionally gaunt, a few days before he took his own life.

Williams was found dead by his personal assistant at his waterfront home and sources revealed that he had hanged himself while in a seated position. (ANI)
