Dude even streamed the last moments of his life before he decided to off himself. When you look at his other streams of him having these meltdowns, it's even sadder; this was a clear cry for help. He deserved better.

Yeah he was definitely not in a good place. I'm gonna miss his reactions and all that. I'm sure people posting the clown memes didn't help anything but only made it worse. He did say in a live stream that he encouraged the clown stuff though.

He was so lucid in his last video, talking like he had already done it. I was just barely aware of him when it was announced he went missing but it still tore me up.

He should have been banned from Twitter, twitch, etc when his family knew he was unsafe there. They could have shown medical documentation to twitch and then they would ban him.

I don't feel sorry for his death. He did it to himself.

I don't understand why this dude is so important. Literally played games and posted reaction videos. People act like he led WW2 and died for it.

While I disagree with this kind of attitude, I do think that it's wrong to blame others for his death. Etika was deliberately encouraging others to ridicule him with all of his absurd antics; when people see someone who is blatantly making himself look like a clown, they will ridicule him. You can't expect everyone to know the full extent of his mental problems, and just because a person is mentally ill doesn't mean they can't control their actions. Etika was most definitely attention seeking and trolling with a lot of the things he pulled, which is more of a problem with himself than with other people.

That said, yes, people should be more mature in general and watch how they treat a person who was clearly mentally ill like Etika. RIP

I feel bad for the guy, but it's not like people didn't tell him to get help. Stream meltdowns are a cry for help, yeah, but why cry for help if you're not going to follow through on any of it? Why not seek a real-life support group that could help you cope?

The worst part about this was Youtube/twitter/whatever feeding in to him continuing this behavior. They should have banned him long ago so he could focus on the real-world.

Not to make light of a very sad situation but yes that's usually how suicide works

Dude my biggest take away is yeah no she mental illness should really garner a lot more help and consideration than it does and how the fuck is it like this in 2019.

Also holy fucking shit someone needs to murder that jaystation guy. What a piece of shit trying to use this to profit of some meme shit YouTube video. Jesus.

He lost his channel last year, I think, and had to make a new one.

He needed to stay in the mental ward, if he got treatment, he would've be alive today guaranteed.
