In case you haven't seen the news, Desmond Amofah, also known as Etika, went missing in NYC. Police were notified of his absence and searched the area. They would later find some of his belongings located on a bridge, including his Nintendo switch, wallet, death note, and much more. Many people speculated that he had faked his death or had performed a "publicity stunt". However, after two days of searching, they finally find him adrift in the East Manhattan River. Amofah's mental health was steadily deteriorating, coupled with depression and stress from fame, led to his death.

 

Desmond made a video about his struggles, regrets, and the things he will miss.

I advise anyone with suicidal thoughts (or intentions) to please seek help from family members or loved ones.

This entire situation is fucked and mental health still isn't being taken seriously enough. It makes me angrier than it makes me sad because this could've been prevented.
