Mental health is no joke. If you see someone crying for help, listen and urge them to get the help they need. Many do not have direct support in their lives or do not get taken seriously until it is too late. I send my prayers to his friends and family, he left us way too young.

People with mental health issues normally dont accept help.
And the system often doesnt want to try.... it costs money to take care of people, so atmost they get the bare minimum help they need.
Which sadly is often not enough.

remember this:

His ex-girl friend twitted that she was happy he was getting help now, and the doctor promised her he wouldnt be leaveing any time soon.
Not until he was well..... guy was out in less than a week, and a week later he jumps off a bridge.
Sadly stuff like this isnt uncommon.



I can't believe this. Etika was one of my favorite YouTubers ever. He was freaking hilarious, and the only guy whose reactions I would watch. I always got so excited to see a new Etika video in my subscriptions feed.

I may use the Pro Controller, but make no mistake, the Joycon Boyz will never forget you!

Fucking hell man. There was help available if you were feeling down.

Damn.

"feeling down" and clinical depression are two very different things - the later is literally a deadly disease often characterized by a chemical imbalance in the brain and needs tons of special and personalized treatment

imo calling it "mental cancer" would appropriatly show it's severity and take nothing away from actual cancer



Oh christ. :(

Every time I tried to find an update on the situation I was so scared of this happening, waking up to seeing the news of him actually being gone.

Heartbroken right now, I didn't watch all his videos but I always knew about him and remember a lot of the popular ones and he always seemed to have so much fun. He was so young too.....

Rest in Peace.

Edit: Tears. Nothing but tears right now. I truly can't believe this. He deserved so much better.

50k subs doesn't make you famous.



Sad news, watched a few of his videos and seemed an OK guy.



I have to admit it is really a bit shocking.
I did not watched too many videos of him, but still quite some reaction videos and I totally liked him and them.
Wow, really bad news this evening, my stomach at the moment is turning a bit upside down, man.

RiP Etika... will miss your reaction videos :(

EDIT:

Man, the more I read about it and the more I watch his videos and the more I think about it, the more tears are running down my cheeks. In the meantime it got much more than just "a bit shocking". Its sad and painful even though I did not knew personally of course. Man, its really shitty... especially after seeing the video of his "final request".

Holy shit man... I havent got any more words...
