He should be proud of writing this book, Just because their name is "Kennedy" doesn't mean they don't have issues with mental health, drugs, alcohol, etc. They are just people.

"They are just people." Don't say that too loud in Massachusetts.

I find his story touching. He's brave to speak out in the family that he's in. I hope after the time that has gone by since this interview Patrick and his brother are at peace, it's sad when there are only the two left in there immediate family!

Patrick looks like a really good honest guy who is not afraid to share his issues, it just means he wants to heal, he was definitely in the healing process.

Honest and courageous.

His book was excellent. Brutally honest.

Wow. When he starts talking about issues....he’s his daddy’s son. Keep fighting 💪🏽💪🏽 everyone in our country deserves care. White, black, old, young, disabled, mentally incapacitated, trauma patients, ptsd victims, EVERYONE DESERVES HELP! If there are firearms laws to keep us safe from violence, there should be laws to keep us safe from disease and viruses as well.

Pat Thanks for sharing keep living your truth!!

Honest and courageous I’m hoping to meet this man one day to say I’m sorry for thinking anything negative of him.

This made me sad. Good for him.

Die hard conservative here. But my god this man is brave talking about his own demons, but speaking against his own corrupt family. This is a good man

I love the Kennedys warts and all. This family has done a lot for this country!!!!

Pat, your'e a great guy. Thanks for doing this

So true about mental illnessis and adictions. Keep doing this. I'm myself is suffering from mental illness since I was about 20 years old. There is still a lot of wrong ideas about this. Keep fighting about these issues Patrik. You are a true Kennedy.❤

So rare to have former or current elected officials fighting for healthcare for those with addiction, mental health issues. Wonder how many gun violence killers would have been stopped had we top notch mental health care in the country.

So much respect! Everyone idolizes them and forgets that they are just humans

Stan Stuben, Do some research before you shoot your mouth off! Patrick Kennedy was a Congressman from Rhode Island from 1995 to 2011. His father, Ted Kennedy, was a Massachusetts State Senator from 1962 until 2009, when he died from brain cancer. Since you cannot get the basic facts correct, I am not even going to comment on the rest of your idiotic statement. Everyone of us has had some type of problem in our lives. We should not judge others for what they are going through, or have gone through. Give the man some credit for having the strength to overcome his problems, and advocating for others in the same situation.

"irreparable harm..." from Charlie Rose? Priceless!!!!! LOL!!!

He’s so brave to come out with this.

Patrick Kennedy's memoir reminds me of why I'm writing my SZ memoir I call Ayesha's Story: The SZ Memoirs. I am really into memoir writing. He is so brave.

It is good that Patrick K. tells the Truth at last the Kennedys are a big family in which a few members also have bigger problems it is psychologically so bad, to swallow all yr issues n pretend all is good, when yr life is falling apart you must deal with it!

Every family member has a different perception of their memories.

Ted Kennedy Sr. Name will always be linked to MaryJo and her drowning. I personally believe he became a better man and a better Senator. Ted made a bad choice but should always be remembered also as a Senator whom helped get laws passed which helped millions of people. 🙏🏽

Sure, he has trouble with addiction, which is a shame. But his bigger problem is lying publicly about the Church.

What a Freak

Throwback! Rhode Island's former U.S. Congressman Patrick J. Kennedy congratulates official Artist of Autism Society of America, Metin Bereketli at the Autism Society of America's National Conference & Evening of Champions! Providence, RI kzread.infovD71ae1R654?feature=share

Without his daddy around to buy him his RI congressional seat he was forced to drop out.

He sounds like a dope to me. The problem with mental health benefits is that you could easily go through the whole budget paying for psychotherapy. Everybody wants it and the therapists think everybody needs it, like over 90% of the people, and it's not cheap! So how do you give 90% of the public something for free? The free stuff has to come from public tax revenues!

This the crazy Kennedy boy, voted to repeal Glass-Steagal in 1999. Joe P. Kennedy III is the good guy.

Double Ghod that’s what makes him a good politician, he understands that not every American is a Catholic so he doesn’t allow his religion to dictate his stances. He might not support abortion in his own life but supports the right for women to have the option to do as they please with their bodies.
