Roman Ragazzi

Roman Ragazzi, real name Dror Barak, a 38-year-old former porn star, has died. He took his own life on Saturday, February 25. Roman started in porn in 2007, and was signed as an exclusive model for Raging Stallion. At the time, he was also working for the Israeli consulate, until his porn career was revealed in the New York Post's Page Six. He resigned, and later started his own company as a personal trainer. He ended his porn career in 2008 to focus full time on his fitness work. There is little information about the suicide. His boyfriend did say that the "details are mostly personal depression issues." He added: "He was the most gentle, loving, kind, amazing man I have ever met."“He was probably the hottest man I have ever filmed," said Raging Stallion's Chris Ward after hearing the news. "A massive man of pure beauty, intelligence and kindness. He was perfect in every possible way.”Depression can be overwhelming, and sadly many people succumb to it.
For those people who are experiencing serious depression and struggling with thoughts of suicide, please contact the Suicide Prevention Hotline in the US at 1-800-273-TALK (8255). Because there is help out there.

So very sad. Hard to understand why one would want to take their life when there is help available for those who are struggling with depression.

I am so sorry to hear this. Depression is truly an awful disease; it sneaks up on a person and by the time they need help it is too late they just want the pain to stop. Thank you Fur Boi for putting the hotline on your blog.
