RIP McSkillet + Please help! (Read below)
This post will be a little bit more depressing but i feel the need to bring awareness to it. As you may or may not know, McSkillet (Age 18) a beloved and popular CSGO youtuber (Nearly 900k subs) has died. As of now, this could all still be conspiracies, but none the less it still needs to be addressed.

The cause of death is a "suicide crash", in which McSkillet was driving 100+mph in his McLaren on the wrong side of the road. This caused him to crash into another driver in a head-on collision killing McSkillet and the 2 passengers in the other car.

I do not condone and think what he did is right, because it is not. What i am trying to raise awareness about is that it was a "Suicide crash", its upsetting that he felt that he had nowhere else to go, and that he committed suicide and unfortunately caused the death of 2 more people.

So, what i am asking for is for you to help everyone around you. Because as someone who has depression and have had suicidal thoughts in the past (Some of you might have had them too) make sure if you know anyone who has them just let them know you are there for them. Because i can assure you and many other people will as well, you feel very lonely and just by someone asking if you are ok makes everything feel that little bit better!

So please, raise awareness about this! Because by making sure that the people around you is ok... it may save their or another person’s life because 800,000 people take their own life each year!

Things you can do to help you or someone else:
1) Let those affected know you support them

2) Talk to family or friends. Just talking to a family member or a friend or a colleague can bring huge relief.

3) Talk to a befriender. Some people cannot talk to family or friends. Some find it easier to talk to a stranger. There are befriending centers all over the world, with volunteers who have been trained to listen. If calling is too difficult, the person can send an email; some centers provide face-to-face help for people who drop by, and some provide help by internet one-to-one chat and respond to SMS text messages.

4) Talk to a doctor. If someone is going through a longer period of feeling low or suicidal, he or she may be suffering from clinical depression. This is a medical condition and can usually be treated by a doctor through the prescription of drugs and/or a referral to therapy. Other mental health problems, as well as substance abuse increase the risk of suicidal thoughts, and these can be treated. The first step is to see a doctor or mental health professional.

5) As well as many many more things!
