Connor Murphy the fitness influencer, has passed away

If you are ever swimming and you get tired you can float on your back to rest.

Don't perpetuate anti-therapy rhetoric.

Learn to identify it when you see it.

Just like anti-vax shit - there is a huge amount of anti-therapy dialogue floating on the internet. The slow slide into 'therapizing' every fucking normal human emotion has not done the field much good, IMO. Lots of online spaces do this and it ruins our ability to seek, obtain and reside in true connection. Women can be particularly prone to perpetuating and falling into this.

Most people I read speaking about therapy are coming from a place of ignorance. Repeating some shit they heard. Therapy can have huge barriers to entry and issues within the field - yes. Realise this, but don't downplay how powerful it truly is. If you have a shit time with humans - try equine therapy. Sounds loopy. Do the loopy

Jeremy fragrance is the german version of connor murphy, same maniac narcistic vibe:

He was very successfull, then something happened and he aged fast in just a few month and became crazy since then.

Yes.  Even swimming 1 mile in a lake requires a lot of effort and pacing for an ordinary person.

Yeah, people underestimate how hard it is to swim and stay afloat when in a dangerous situation. It is a lot easier to drown than people realize. People swim in pools and then think they know how to swim but it’s not the case. Even most fit people are mediocre swimmers and if you go far out to exhaustion you ain’t coming back especially if you don’t float.

What happens when the line between the psychotic and the mystic has dissolved.   I prefer to say you die within the same world that you live.

You can go on Yelp.com right now and search for spiritual therapists and counselors. There are thousands of them.

Finding a spiritual therapist is not hard if you specifically search for it.

You can even find psychic therapists. I did. I went to a therapist who would read my life as we did therapy.

Who is to say they aren't the ones who will lead to your downfall?

Why would you believe in psychiatrists? They are ideologically captured by the state. They do not serve you; they unconsciously serve the organism that maintains society.

If Connor was doing so many drugs, it's because he was looking to die and melt into nothing. He suffered. It’s not because he didn’t look like a cliche suicidal and depressive person that he wasn’t one.

To me, it’s quite clear he was longing to die and finally succeeded. You don’t need to take a bunch of direct killing pills to attempt suicide. What he was doing was a slow call for death because he never ever healed from the trauma of not being enough.

I don't think Connor wanted to die.

He was just reckless and thought he could get away with it forever. His luck ran out.

@AerisVahnEphelia I tnever saw any trauma in him or longing for dead. It was the opposite. He was probably in a constant bliss state after his ayahuasca experience 5 years ago. since then he was tripping 24/7, had still incredible physiqe, a lot of girls and a mission. For me connor murphy was in a power state all the time and more happy than a normal human can experience in his normal life. And he wanted us to show that through his videos that he is free of all fears, even the fear of death.

What you see in video is not the full picture but only what he wanted you to see.

He was not truly happy. Manic states never last.

@Leo Gura but he was definitely on a power trip. He felt probably invincible.

If you gave me a list of people who are most likely to die early from unnatural causes, Connor Murphy would have been near the top of that list. This was not surprising new at all, unfortunately.

His death should serve as an example of the dangers of ego when combined with hardcore spiritual work and substance use. It's clear that by his attitude and his behaviors he thought that he could basically do no wrong. From his perspective as long as he was trying to help people or get a deep message across, the ends justified the means and therefore he could rationalize any stunt or grotesque upsetting act. From the outside it appears he got nothing but positive reinforcement during his life and had an abundance of validation financially, sexually, socially etc. why wouldn't he? He was a very charming and good looking guy. He had so much success in different areas of life that by the time he came across spirituality he had a ridiculous amount of inertia and it was just another thing for him to conquer and add to the resume.

It looks like he didn't properly or fully integrate the serious lessons he encountered and it caused some underlying mental health issues and traumas to bubble up to the surface and made him go insane. I don't think he's a bad person, it's just that he bit off more than he could chew and didn't know how to deal with it other than expressing himself in a chaotic energetic way. If you are going to publicly espouse and share deep spiritual insights you ought to take time to figure out where people are at and make it somewhat edible, otherwise you will just seem like a spiraling maniac like he did. He also seems to have gotten a lot of amusement out of shocking people and challenging norms. I can tell just by looking in his eyes that he was totally lost in the sauce and felt that there was no way to go back in a mature capacity, so the only way out was through. Now he's dead.

Thanks for sharing your valuable perspective.

You don't know what he intended to do or create; you can only project yourself into it.

Well that is the case with bipolar disorder which I have.

I don't necessarily think it is purely pathological though.

There is a truth to that sense of anything being possible. The problem I guess could be if you start to put yourself and others in danger. I think most people live in a state of fear and limitation. This is also a false premise. Yet the over confidence of mania can be read as an issue. 

That state of confidence is intoxicating and I think that most of society is afraid of it. At the same time you do need to keep yourself grounded and responsible. Your behavior does have consequences.

Personally I think things like bipolar are forms of genius.

But if you do not have it balanced then it creates massive issues. 

Look at Kanye West. He is bipolar and his discography is legendary and conveys that confidence as well.
