@drjoe_md: Thirty-year-old Kyler Effinger was on his way to visit his dying grandfather when he experienced a severe mental health crisis at the airport. According to his family, Kyler had bipolar disorder and was having a manic episode. In a state of confusion and distress, he ran through the airport, made his way onto the tarmac, and ultimately climbed into the engine of a commercial aircraft, where he did not survive. His story is heartbreaking, but it's also an important reminder that mental illness is every bit as real as physical illness. A mental health crisis can completely alter a person's judgment, perception, and behavior in ways that are difficult for others to understand. If you or someone you love is struggling, please reach out for help. #truecrimecommunity #netflixdocumentary #missingperson #MentalHealth

As much as I want to believe your raising awareness, this should be taken down. I know the family personally, please respect their privacy. The tragedy this family suffered is absolutely not a source of views or income for you. This is so wrong.

I hate this, my biggest fear with being bipolar is being in a stressful situation by myself and being torn away from reality. I tend not to do stressful things on my own because just having one person there is usually enough to bring me back down. I hate that no one seen him and tried to intervene.
