He tweeted recently about spending the night on a hill near solar panels, I wonder if anyone's checked there?

 

Hope he's found safe.

[Marshal Moriarty]

Is this true? Because its terrible news if it is!

 

I really hope he's okay.

[Madmoe77]

In a perfect world, there wouldn't be such a stigma preventing people from openly engaging and seeking help with the mind. It's not a place we can escape from, no matter the effort. 

 

We need better systems to help with this, better institutions available for this, and a society that doesn't capitulate 'normal', isolating those who may have different ranges of that. 

 

Hope he is found and given all the assistance needed.

I really hope he's found safe and well. 

[martiancake]

Oh no. I hope he's all right and found safe and soon. 

[DarkAmaranth1966]

I hope he is found, or if he doesn't want to be found at least reaches out to a trusted friend that can tell us he's okay but, doesn't want anyone knowing where he is.

[BansheeOwnage]

((( terrible news I so hope he is okay. About fifty mins ago allegra tweeted that she was checking noho park

Solas, find him!

 

This is really terrible news. I hope he's okay and can get the help he needs.

 

Hang in there

I've got a close family member who's bipolar , and I witnessed my fair share of bad manic crisis...it really sucks because manic create some kind of "high" so the person is super happy but stops sleeping , gets paranoid and starts to loose it.

 

Hopefully Greg is alright , and someone is going to find him soon.

[meganbytez]

hope he is okay and gets the help he need for his mental health. very important. 

[SamaraDraven]

I've just learned! Can't believe it. My sister is bipolar and when she is crazed there's no reasoning with her. I hope Jonny is found safe and sound soon!

There is still so much stigma with "coming out" with mental disorders, and the public thinks that you can just will these issues away. You can't half the time because your brain's wires are crossed and twisted. It's like trying to delete a permanent virus in your PC, you can't do it. You have to think of creative ways to get around your issues and literally plan your day out as best you could. 

 

I use a service dog now to help me get through, but I get really dirty looks from people because I'm able-bodied. This made me more visible as "someone with issues", and the general public is largely ignorant and rude about it. I do get treated worse when my dog is with me, so I also understand the need to keep hiding if you have invisible disorders.

 

I hope that he finds the peace and security he deserves. I know how it feels to be in that warped state of mind and it's a hell you can't seem to escape at times...

[TagiDoll]

I will be checking back to make sure he is found safe 

[Eelectrica]

Wow never expected this.
My thoughts go out to him and his family. Hope he's found safe and well.

Come on Cullen, I got you off the lyrium remember.

I suffer from this disorder as well. Last manic episode I had was in February and it was horrible and I ended up in the emergency room.

 

I love and adore Greg Ellis' work, but this goes far beyond what he has accomplished professionally, and I honestly wish more people would take it serious enough to not make inappropriate remarks and joke about Dragon Age - I mean, sure I get that you are fans of him via that, that's how I found him at first as well, but he is a MAN. He is not Cullen. He is an individual in need of serious help and he has a child that must miss him terribly.

 

In light of all this, my anxiety has gone through the roof. I know what being unmedicated feels like, and hope that if/when he is found he can reconsider. This being a matter of bipolar mania hits so close to home for me and I can't stop watching the news. Thank you to those keeping us updated, and those helping in the search and rescue. ♥

It's amazing for all of our documentaries putting man on a pedestal it is the dog that 'get's it.' Thank you for sharing that with us. I'm glad there are methods available to you that help cope with all of us and the rough days. I have a sister with bi-polar and schizophrenia, and a brother with bi-polar too. They both self-medicated and became addicts. It's a lesson learned that without the right help, people will find solutions that only complicate matters worse. Sadly for us, they are both in their mid-life now and certainly less flexible to pursuing a healthy course of action. Encourage, support, and be versatile; that's all we can do.

Well I hope that "exclusive message" on WhoSay doesn't mean anything. http://www.whosay.co...84?code=FLVbIM5

 

Knowing other people in the entertainment industry who tend to be cryptic when shite is going down in their lives, I am hoping that was not Greg/Jonny's way of saying something no one saw. Last one in entertainment that got cryptic on Twitter almost OD'ed the night of the cryptic post but, I saw it and called his sister to go check on him. Don't know anyone that knows Greg that well but I have asked those I know to keep their eyes and ears open for buzz that might not reach the news, media or, authorities.

 

Anyone been out to check around the windmills in the desert, and the beach up toward Santa Barbara that has the steep climb and all of the muscles on the rocks - the sort of reminds you of Pirates of the Caribbean one and never has many people on it? Still those solar panels or the windmills would be my first guesses because "Leave only vital energy."

Being bipolar myself this hit close to home when I found out he was missing and has bipolar and having a manic episode I've been there. I was just saying this to a friend it is really hard to talk about having bipolar/mental illness or go for treatment sometimes we rather not deal with the issues of being bipolar/having mental illness because we sometimes feel like we are a burden to our loved ones,friends,family or that we are being judged as some nutter.

I found that Society is also quick to label/not care/just sweep it under the rug or act like mental illness isn't real or that it is all in our heads and we are doing it for attention we definitely need better awareness for mental illness and better mental health care systems. I really do hope they find him and he is safe.   

[Marika Haliwell]

Oh NO I hope he is well

I know what you mean. I'm bipolar too and, I do deal with it without therapists, psychologist or medications - in other words I too refuse all treatment and have for decades. Tried meds ONCE when I was 18, hated them, psyc was an ******* so, none of that for me. I completely understand where Greg/Jonny might be coming from and, it isn't impossible to handle it w/o meds and therapy but, it isn't easy either. You've got to be very self aware and, know how to out think your mental default at times both ways either to go party, spend foolish amounts of money on junk you want but don't need or, talk yourself out of killing yourself. You have to put both parts of the roller coaster we ride for life to productive or at least self healing use. As a friend says -"enjoy the roller coaster rid that is life."

 

I hope Jonny just let that roller coaster run away a bit and will get it back in control soon.

[Hanako Ikezawa]

I hope he is found safe and sound.

[GithCheater]

I too hope he will be found safe and sound.  Without him there would be great void for family, friends, coworkers and fans who have been acquainted with him.

 

I too am bipolar, and have mostly managed my life reasonably well under effective doctor and medicinal treatment for 27 years, but has not always been "easy".  It took 3 hospitalizations in six month diagnose me and determine an effective course of treatment.  I have since only been hospitalized once in the past 27 years, and have been employed by the same company and remained married for 26 years and counting.

 

For those with bipolar disorder there is always hope.  I hope Jonny Rees / Greg Ellis pulls through his current difficulties.

[demonicdivas]

I too have bipolar and it really hit close to home when I woke up and read about this today. I had a horrible manic episode last year when my lithium dropped and we didn't realise. Mine was also compounded with postpartum psychosis. It's truly frightening, both for the person going through the episode and for the love ones who live through it too. I can well understand why people don't seek treatment and refuse to acknowledge publicly that they have a condition (only close family and friends know in my case). Just reading through some of the comments since Jonny Reese's disappearance was announced shows how far we have to go. I am praying for his safe return and that he and his family are given the privacy he needs to get better.

PS we aren't 'crazed' when we are in a manic phase. We are ill. It's that type of terminology being assigned to us which makes it all worse!

[Irethofnorgothren]

Oh God, this is terrible, I hope he is found safe and sound as soon as possible, thanks to him we were given an amazing character whom we all love and care for. 

[BSpud]

This is heartbreaking.
