In a Tweet thread which he posted 11 hours ago, @ayofilmworks said he has been depressed since when he was 16 and never spoke to his family members about it because he has seen them dismiss other people's claims of mental illness.
Hi, by the time a majority of y'all read this, i'll be dead. i took my life at a gun range. it was swift and virtually painless; aimed right for my medulla. I'm sorry to those who have loved me while i lived, and i wish i had reciprocated your efforts equally.
no it wasn't anything spiritual/magical/mystical, and pls don't try to make it out to be. that annoying speculation is literally part of what kept me from seeking help from my own family. everything always boiled down to prayer and spirits. no real help.
i've been depressed since 16 yrs old and it just never let go. seeing the way they reacted to the mental health issues of others (mocking/dismissing depression as a joke or passing feeling) really discouraged me from EVER speaking to them regarding what i was going through. ''
A scheduled tweet from him posted five hours ago reads
Please don't make any funky photoshop wing edits of me. I'll personally come back to life and slap you. (these are scheduled tweets btw, i'm not tweeting from the afterlife... be a lot cooler if i was tho)''
His followers believe he has died and has taken to his comment section to mourn him
