Suicide and Mental Illness

[Gilwean]

Hey guys some of you know me as Arthis P99 Shammy or Gilwean from E'ci or Wellmine from Temerity on EQMAC. Also I was streaming pretty steady this past summer till June or July. What you might not know is why I got back into P99 and why I dropped suddenly from the game.

April this year things were still same old grind same bullshit of life day in day out and then my father committed suicide and my whole world flipped upside down. EQ was a way to back in the day escape my fathers mental illness and try to get so consumed in something else escape the reality how mentally ill he was. So when my father did take his own life I got sucked into the game which was awesome and a great escape because I was not ready to deal with the reality of that event for months. Then I decided to try to work thru it and not suppress things anymore and tried to think of something positive to do.

I did my fathers bucket list, things he wanted to do would enjoy doing ect but was too ill or not in good enough health to do himself. It was the best thing I have ever done in my life saw 5 awesome bands from Flogging Molly, Sir Mixalot both of which I got to meet and get pics with. To Goo Goo Dolls Black Sabbath and Awolnation and Prophets of Rage. I went on to see many national parks drove over 14,000 miles and spent 65 days on the road and met some cool as shit people. Actually got to meet some EQ buddies along my journey in different states. I became as peace and discovered apart of myself that I had lost taking care of my dad for the last many years.

So it brings me to my post I am doing a walk called out of the darkness a suicide awareness and prevention walk. If you guys could share it or throw in a dollar or two I would greatly appreciate it and I hope to see you guys back in game and streaming in the near future.
