World of Warcraft Rank 1 Player Reckful Commits Suicide

[theworstkindofeurofag]

Found this clip of Becca and Reckful arguing on stream.

This seems to shine a light on their relationship (spoiler: it's a shitty one).

Apparently, he cleaned and asked Becca if she was proud of him, but she said he didn't clean right. Then he blew up at her. Becca tries to talk to him after he started streaming.

They both sound unreasonable here: he just keeps whining like a six year old that he only wants to stream, she keeps talking and talking and pushing him.

There's no way it'd have been a good idea for her to say yes to his proposal and I don't think she'd have done so. This was a pretty disastrous situation and I feel bad for her.

Well, it appears we're already seeing the first victims of suicide contagion on Twitch: Ohlana, a tiddy streamer with ~100k followers. Judging by her stream titles she entered a depressed period after Byron's death, with her last stream on the 4th being called "need some luv " - unfortunately her VODs are sub only so I can't look through them. After that she posted some very troubling tweets and a goodbye message on Instagram (can't access it, but it's in this article) before taking her life on Monday. This was just confirmed a couple of hours ago.

The news article mentioned that another streamer going by bLuE622 died on the 4th, and the wording of his obituary heavily implies that this was also a suicide.

If this suicide contagion spirals out of control I'd reckon twitch would change TOS and make it very sanitized. I'd also reckon they'd cut down on twitch partners and make it MANDITORY that the streamer has a mental health coach/physician before even applying for partnership to wash their hands of the contraversy.

Yeah the streamers are starting to drop like flies; I am morbidly curious to see if things continue to fly out of control or if things start calming down.

I'm even more morbidly curious to see if this is an isolated community all things considered or if society wide you are starting to see a spike in suicides.

This is very unprofessional and would make me question him working with clients in the way he does. If its real he has enmeshment issues, if not he just wants attention both go against principles of the profession. It may sound harsh and detached, but you can't let a clients death or choices get to to that degree thats why we debrief when clients take their lives and have weekly team meetings.

I'm curious if he monetizes his videos because that would actually be a huge licensure violation.

Decided to do some looking into this guy that is a "therapist"
He is only conditional certified by the Association of Psychiatry and Neurology because he has not met his MOC requirements.

Moc Requirements:

• Complete one (1) MOC activity every two (2) years. Points earned will count toward the 5 year requirement of 100 MOC points.
• Earn 100 MOC points every five (5) years. Twenty (20) of these points must be in the Medical Knowledge category.
• Pass an assessment

Clinically Inactive: No direct and or/consultative patient care has been provided in the past 24 months.
Status Unknown: No information available on the clinical activity of this diplomate.

Here is his MD status:

Active, but it does state he has not made payment on a malpractice claim. Cannot find info about this claim.

From his own info he is not actively taking new patients and he admits he does not use the methods he has been taught as part of his therapy since he focuses on Ayurvedic medicine which I know nothing about.

Not sure most people would look up a psychiatrist see hes only worked 2 years, with no clinical experience listed and not meeting his MOC reqs in 2 years time. Now its possible its just because he is not even 24 months into his license, but that to me makes him even less reliable as a person on a stream telling advice to vulnerable people.

I've never liked Dr.K from the first time he showed up in my Youtube feed. He gives me the impression of being a grifter the same way Jordan Peterson does. He gets the same type of audience who wants to be told to wash their balls and likes to pretend it's a revelation. Besides, what kind of therapist teaches people about dharma?

Feels like he's trying to tap in that incel audience by giving them relationship advice. If it's not that, it's interviewing e-celebs who are probably the most removed thing from the general public. The general public doesn't get to pretend to be a ditz like Lilypichu to look "cute", they don't get to have an army of simps like Pokimane, and they're probably not 800k dollars in debt/owned a sex super smash bros house like Sky Williams. It's trying to take everyday problems like depression and burnout, but from a galaxy brain approach, because it wouldn't get views otherwise. Each e-celeb he interviews seems to have some form of vice, like open relationships, burnout, self love, self-value, depression, laziness, sadness.

Many of the people he interviews aren't people you should take lessons from. The doc probably knows he's a sham or genuinely believes he's going to help these people with his practice.

Ayurvedic medicine is a sham by the way. It's a pseudoscience. It tries to balance 3 "life forces" through a cleansing process to "restore balance". Ayurvedic products are poorly regulated and some of them are straight up banned due to foreign substances.

Back to Reckful though. To pretend that K was supposed to be a silver bullet for Reckful is silly. Reckful was already deep into it.

Exactly what I said about authorities treating you like a farm animal. That's what happens. For "compassion."

Damn that was a really sad read, hope he rests in peace

They've patched things Rextroy has broken its kinda awesome the insane one-shot vids he does.

Pretty much every server seemed to have its own thing for Reckful, even the classic ones.

co mon. you talked with the guy once and now you crying that his dead? you can be sad and pity him but cry infront of a camera for everyone to see just screams attention whore to me.

would someone really do that? Just fake a reaction to get more exposure for their ebusiness?

I wouldn't be surprised if he killed himself in a manic state. Based on experience and from other Bipolar people I've come across, you do more harm in manic states than depressed states. People tend to think you're worse off in a depressed state of mind. They're wrong. It's always mania, or is mania most of the time.

Mania can also add in an impulsivity to it. His method would be considered a pretty impuslive one.

Exactly. With depression you can be too tired to get out of bed, let alone harm yourself. Mania though, that's scarier.

Yep. The most dangerous mood state is a mixed episode where the person has the dark thoughts of a depression combined with the racing thoughts, paranoia, irritability/rage and impulsivity of mania, and, most importantly, the lack of sleep, which tends to be the thing that pushes people over the edge.

Bipolar is crazy like that. Manic thoughts and impulsivity, along with everything else you mentioned can lead to either self harm or harm to other people. Especially if they're self medicating or not managing their mental illness in some way.

Mood isn't a one dimensional thing. Someone can be overwhelmed with suicidal ideation and too depressed to act on it because they lack the energy. They're likely to kill themselves if they retain the ideation and desire to do it but suddenly have more energy than they used to. This is why sometimes people paradoxically commit suicide after the initial stages of an antidepressant seem to be working.

That's true. Impulsiveness makes it tricky too.
