Native American actress Misty Upham is missing and her father fears that she might have done something to hurt herself.

The 33-year old actress starred in the 2013 film "August: Osage County" and the 2008 flick "Frozen River".

Upham was last seen spotted near her Auburn, Seattle apartment on October 5. After missing for 24 hours, her father Charles immediately called police to report her absence. Officials immediately went to the actress' home and found that her things were gone. Police believe that Upham had packed her bags and left of her own volition.

Due to their findings, the police isn't treating Upham as a missing person and shared that her disappearance does not seem " "unexplainable, involuntary or suspicious," as required by state law. Because of this, officials are no longer searching for the actress.

Because the police are no longer searching for the actress, her family has took to social media and the press to ask for help in finding her.

Upham's father stated that the actress suffers from mental health issues and that she has recently changed her medication. The actress, who has suffered from depression in the past and has made suicide threats, has recently exhibited erratic behavior ever since her medication was changed.

Although the family has expressed concern over her mental stability, they have not stated what her exact medical condition is.

Upham had recently moved from Los Angeles to live closer to her father who is currently recovering from a stroke.

Charles Upham shared with The Hollywood Reporter that he became worried about his daughter after a recent phone call he received from her.

 "She told me and her mom that we didn't have to worry about her anymore. ... I thought it sounded suicidal myself, so I called the police. She's always been a suicidal person," he shared.
