https://www.tmz.com/2026/02/23/lizzie-mcguire-star-robert-carradine-dead-at-71/Robert Carradine -- the actor best known for his roles in "Lizzie McGuire," "Revenge of the Nerds," and "The Long Riders," -- has died after taking his own life after a nearly two decade battle with Bipolar Disorder.
In a statement to Deadline, Carradine's family called him a "beacon of light" in a world that can feel dark, and described his struggle with mental illness as "valiant." They said they hope his journey helps shine a light on the stigma surrounding Bipolar Disorder and asked for privacy as they grieve.

My niece and a nephew (in opposite families--if that makes sense) are bi-polar.

It's so tough. I really feel for them. They go through so much.
