Trashfire Apollo Legend suicide

JustStopDude said:
I'm sure you did.

The point remains that Apollo lived a sedentary lifestyle of inactivity. The first thing his doctor told him is that he needs to lose weight and exercise.

I get why you want to blame the morals and behavior of people who suffer horrific misfortune, but that's not how the world works. Sometimes, shit's fucked up. And there is nothing you can do or could have done to prevent it.

Wilfully exposing yourself to the disappointment of missing out on a goal up to hundreds of times a day nearly every day for years has a habit of turning your brain into a black scorch mark it's so burnt out, and by then it's too late for them to realize unfortunately. The smart ones get out and get a different hobby or branch out and make a variety of content for their own sanity.

When you got scoliosis your options are limited, palsy and dystrophy disorders don't mess around. Unfortunate as it is, driving yourself to exhaustion "grinding" streams and clickbait YouTube content is the perfect job for someone with a physical disability. Then you end up like this guy.

They do it for the cash, not because they're obsessed with beating a Sonic game 1 second quicker.

Or you could lose weight and deal with the scoliosis, rather than blame everyone else and an hero. You cant be deserving of sympathy and be unwilling to help yourself, they're mutually exclusive.

Depending on what caused it he may not have been able to deal with it. Being fat doesn't cause Palsy.

I am not blaming anyone for anything. I have merely pointed out that scoliosis is not some horrific condition in which there is no treatment.

The treatment is quite simple and it's the same for a wide variety of medical issues that plague overweight, sedentary people.

From what I know about him, Apollo wasn't actually fat, so losing weight would have done fuckall to improve his situation here.

Following this from start I wanna add that it would be nice if the op would clarify that he didn't kill himself over speed running per se but he had a painful physical condition and he was driven from his hobbies + lockdowns probably affected his mental health.

The guy mentioned spedrunning drama in his suicide note. Keep coping.

Just the way you put that down makes me wonder, was this guy's quick swipe at Viper & EZScape a clever little practical joke just at the expense of assholes?

Now first off I can't blame either Viper or EZ for getting pissed at it. Because it is still pretty rude to even suggest some Youtuber resulted in your suicide, and they surely will get trolls bothering them for a while. But with that said he knew by putting it in the third line of his description it would be the thing everyone would see first. For many it's the biggest thing they saw. And we get videos like this faggot (PrinceOfFALLEN) trying his best to A-Log and sound cool.

In the actual longform suicide video Apollo does not blame anyone in gaming. He made it very clear that he's been suffering for a long time and he believed it was only going to get worse due to poor physical health. The dude pours his fucking heart and I think you'd have to be a fucking sociopath to not be somewhat emotionally effected when seeing somone in a true suicidal mindstate. Suicidal people generally don't act dramatic or hysterical they are just like Apollo and have their mind made up.

At the end of the day the description might have been him giving a fuck you to people he felt wronged by. But it also might be a little gag to see how many people can't bother to look at things a little closely; the speedrunners of Virtue Signaling.

I guess we'll never know and I'm just left overspeculating. Whatever the truth is it made it a lot more entertaining to see people bitch at a guy whose corpse isn't even at room temp.
