Van Gogh suffered from psychotic episodes and hallucinations.   He was worried about his mental stability and often neglected his physical health, not eating properly and drinking too much.   His friendship with Gauguin ended after a confrontation with the razor, when he cut off his left ear in anger.   Van Gogh spent time in mental hospitals, including a stint at Saint-Remy.   After he discharged himself and moved to the Auberge Ravoux in Auvers-sur-Oise near Paris, he was placed under the care of the homeopathic physician Paul Geshe.   His depression continued and on July 29, 1890, Van Gogh died of his injuries after being shot seven times in the chest.
