AMARE DEEP DIVE | Is “The Mental Wellness Company” a predatory scam?

Not about this brand, but I have been using Dashing Diva mail strips for years! A few weeks back they launched a program that was basically an ✨mlm ✨ but they didn’t call it that. Consumers LOST IT and were so disappointed with the decision. A few weeks after the initial announcement, they finally came back and said they DISSOLVED the new program explaining that they value their costumer more than anything else. I share because it was a huge win! Thank you for sharing the negative side of these mlm companies and bringing light to the challenges and hard ships it can cause. I appreciate your content so much!

Unfortunately I have a friend that is deep into this MLM. It’s so sad to watch her, but - as an individual that has been on Lexapro for years - it’s also infuriating. I avoid her mostly now, but she did message me once claiming that her products might “help me get off the script” and I was enraged. I’m fortunate to have insurance, and my pills are $9 for a 90 day supply, and they have made life changing improvements to the way I function! Why in the world would she try to convince someone to PAY $200 a month for some crappy supplements that will most likely NOT WORK? The fact that my poor sweet friend is preying on people with these vulnerabilities is infuriating. This has 1 million percent negatively impacted our 20 year friendship:-(

[@bethradish]

I hope your friend gets out soon and she can recover from the experience ♡

[@msmagsmn]

I am so sorry. I'm also on medication for mental health that has ABSOLUTELY made life-changing differences for me, and I'm beyond grateful for it. Any suggestion from someone (and they're never mental health professionals) that I need to get off my meds gets me so heated. And to think these reps are out there, with no health care education, with the ultimate goal of making money instead of 'do no harm.' It's just vile. I hope your friend eventually sees the light...maybe she'll see this video and Hannah's lovely nature will prevail.

[@DagmarDollmaier]

Wow, I feel for you. That is an awful situation to be in, but I'm happy you know what's best for you. That is a huge deal and I applaud you.

[@LadyZubat]

I'm schizoaffective, I was struggling alone for so long until I found out that my local department of behavioral health would give me counseling and medical free of charge. With no insurance at the time it was like a god send. They also helped me get on Medicare so I don't have to worrying about paying for doctor's visits anymore. If you have a department of behavioral health or mental health in your town or near you I highly recommend seeing them.

[@jenniferfootman3257]

So sorry about the schizoaffective disorder. I'm working on my msw, and the hallucinations that accompany the psychotic spectrum sound terrorizing. I'm glad you're getting help.

THANK YOU for taking a hard look at one of these 'mental health' MLMs. I feel like they don't get as much attention but sound like they could be perhaps the most dangerous.

[@larissabrglum3856]

Health MLMs in general are especially insidious, and that's what makes them so interesting to me.

[@LisaHarvey16]

I agree they are very dangerous.

[@bpdbestie]

this reminds me of when an amare rep told me about the mental wellness pack (whatever its called) and how it would cure my bipolar disorder and tried to justify the price compared to how expensive medication is but with insurance i barely pay $10 a month for meds, but yes. hundreds monthly for supplements sounds like a steal 🤩

[@helenr4300]

yikes, even the thought of ditching my meds is scary, and how reps encourage it, and quit themselves. a lot of trainwrecks

[@LisaHarvey16]

It's great that you stuck to your guns and stayed with the meds.

[@hailyjohnson407]

For real! My meds cost me $5 per prescription (for the ones my insurance covers). My insurance doesn't cover the meds I really would prefer for my ADHD, but what I do take is better than any supplement I could take. I want the long acting form of my meds that is also harder to abuse, but insurance will only approve to pay for me to take two shorter acting forms of the medicine (two different doses, taking one of each per day), and this form is very common for abuse and makes me uncomfortable having it on me or having anyone know I take it because I need it and don't want to deal with it potentially being stolen or having someone offer to buy it. But again, what I have is much better than vitamins or supplements or anything I can access without a prescription, and it's cheaper too, since it costs me $10 per month total.

[@naeshelle]

@@hailyjohnson407 If you don’t want to deal with your meds being stolen, leave most of them at home. I, personally, only have two or three days worth in my bag at any given time. It would still suck if someone stole them but at least I’m out three days & not a month. Just an idea!

[@randl7423]

Yikes. Since going on meds for my bipolar 2 & finally stabilizing after decades, I wouldn't trade my meds for anything in the world, lol. What an awful, predatory person to try and destabilize you for their own profit 🤢

There's a global shortage of ADHD medication at the moment, we're talking rationing drugs and saving correct dosages for only the most desperate days. I won't lie, I can see this appealing to desperate people who have suddenly found themselves in an impossible situation, and I hate that. Some psychiatric medications have issues or interact adversely with certain vitamins and supplements, the entire thing is inherently unsafe. Absurd.

[@kadeelacayo4806]

And diabetic medication. I work for an insurance company I’m calling daily to search for stuff

[@notacatnt]

@@kadeelacayo4806 Had no idea about that bit! That's even worse, I have no idea what I'd do in that situation. Fingers crossed it's sorted asap, nobody deserves to live a life where they're worried they won't have access to necessary medications. I'm in the UK so we're dealing with pharmacists most of the time, and I feel awful because between three identical brands they genuinely can't find any. Mercifully I think we found one month's supply and managed to get it but the uncertainty is awful. I can't imagine how much worse it is with insulin, I really hope it resolves soon.

I think it's important to remember with the income disclosure statement aswell is that it's not a consistent monthly wage either. It's only consistent if everyone is consistently selling the same amount of units every month. You could never bank on getting that amount at the end of every single month

[@robinw2164]

I work in a laboratory and the "scientific" words they used are LITERALLY FILLER LMAO.... to define them super simply.... the "scientific method" is just the process of idea to test to result, back to another idea. "Liquid Chromatography" is used to identify unknown liquids by having it separate on a strip in liquid. "Mass spectrometry" is just vibrating the molecules to identify what bonds are in it, again to identify what it is. So literally jibberish in terms of quality 😂

The hormone pack makes me think of the pill my dermatologist just gave me. She saw me for this really bad acne I have, took one look, and was like "ah yes, this is hormonal" and prescribed me a (normally) blood pressure medication. It'll help even out my hormones because of perimenopause. So far, I am feeling a bit better, mentally, because my hormones aren't fighting me as much, and it's still new but my face is starting to clear. The fun thing is, she's a DOCTOR, she told me all the side effects and to make sure to look out for signs of certain things from taking these medications and possible interactions between this new medicine and the other medications I'm already taking. You know, like doctors do.

[@Kitty67722]

Spironolactone! I have horrible hormonal acne and my derm prescribed this for me but then she just casually said “it’s traditionally a blood pressure medication so if you start passing out give us a call and we’ll do some blood work” and I got so scared I haven’t taken it. How’s your experience been?

[@partysuvius]

Can I have your doctor too?! Or whoever is like her cause my doctor just checks my bloodwork and makes sure I’m not in the “dangerously malnourished” levels. I have concerns I’m not absorbing enough iron from my food and don’t know the root cause, which could be a textbook’s worth of causes

[@partysuvius]

My anti-MLM cousin got wrapped up in this company. I was so tired of seeing her posts about how her “mental wellness company” can save your mental health & make your life better. At first she only sold the products but then she jumped like 3 levels in a month and now all you see on her social media is about the opportunities this company gave her. She earned a trip to Panama and even made a post about “how can network marketing be so bad if everyone is happy.” She has lost weight on the products where she struggled before but still. Now she joined another MLM because it’s “smart business to have multiple avenues of income”

[@DagmarDollmaier]

I'm in training to become a mental health professional and the ratio of people to mental healthcare providers is staggering. For reference, the average therapist sees about 25 clients a week -- so if even 1/10 of the 350 people per provider need mental health services, therapists are still going to be overbooked. And that's without thinking about things like insurance, scheduling, medication management, etc. The mental health system in this country is broken, but MLMs are not the way to fix it.

As someone with a traumatic brain injury, I've previously fallen for the brain power supplement things in hopes of finding a way to get back to the way I was before. They don't do anything. The only way you're brain is going to heal and do the things they claim is to work on neuroplasticity, go to a doctor who does that, sleep, etc. An MLM supplement isn't going to do gunk.

Thank you for this video! A business woman (not mlm) and friend that I respect recently started posting about these supplements and I was intrigued. She was not looking to build her down line, in her words, since she is already successful and just genuinely liked the products. But, this is not something I could afford long term! Insane prices!! I heard something from a fitness de-influencer recently that stuck with me: do not invest your money on non-prescribed supplements if you are not: 1. Eating balanced nutrition 2. Exercising regularly 3. Getting the appropriate amount of sleep

Loving all of your videos! Something that's good to know: When talking about "mental health issues" it's important to note that ADHD & Autism don't fall under that umbrella. They're neurodevelopmental disorders, meaning they have to be present in early childhood or before a certain age to be able to be diagnosed. You can't develop ADHD as an adult if you didn't have it as a child. You can however get Depression, PTSD etc. later in life. Also, people with ADHD or Autism may or may not struggle with their mental health. In my case for example I have ADHD and mental health issues. I can overcome and heal my mental health issues through therapy but I can not heal my ADHD.

As an analytical chemist, they have pretty much listed every single analysis technique but not really what they are using them for. Just listing HPLC? Is it purity analysis, if so is there a spec saying how pure it is. It’s there limits. Where’s the CoA. As a chemist who understands and has used everything on that list, it’s just a list and honestly means nothing and I highly doubt they have even tested most of it properly

[@michellew8332]

I'm not a chemist but have done a lot of research reading and writing for a psychology PhD and could not agree more. It's just a list of tests and no descriptions of testing methods, what they are testing, or what the outcome of testing is...and you'd have to evaluate the quality of EACH OF THOSE! Not to mention the conflict of interest in funding something where they could easily leave out "inconvenient" data. They rely on people being ignorant to the games being played in academics and "the ministry of science".

[@DreadKittenOZ]

27:20 Hannah, what concerns me about the names of these ranks is that “Servant Leader” is a term that is widely used in the Christian faith - especially in Evangelicals/Pentecostal churches . The notion that Christ was the ultimate Servant Leader (ie the leader so humble that he would wash his disciples feet etc) and while it is a wonderful concept and I do not begrudge anyone their faith. This smacks of potential Faith Manipulation - aimed at The most vulnerable people possible. The evangelical church already has a pretty poor track record with their stance on mental health. I will have a look through the rest of their site to see if there is any other language that may be indicative of a faith based connection. Thank you for all the work that you are doing. I love your compassionate and reasoned approach to exposing the manipulative tactics of these predatory schemes.

thanks for making this video. a lot of people are going to turn to this out of desperation. in my area, it's not uncommon to have a 6 month waiting period to see a psychiatrist as a new patient. these supplements have the danger of people taking them and then blaming themselves for not "getting better" or feeling any different. that kind of guilt can weigh heavily on an individual and can push some to do things they could regret.

What a coincidence, lol I had never heard of this MLM company before. Thanks for researching these companies and educating us on them

[@sydneynicole9574]

I watch all of your videos, but forgot about this company. Someone I know started working with Amare and it sounded MLMy so I googled it and this was the first thing to pop up 😂 you best believe I am rewatching!

I used to work in food quality for a pretty major food manufacturer, and while it was customary for a company to have a document outlining their analytical practices, it's only a part of the necessary whole. Sure, those are what they claim to be testing for, but where's the evidence? what are your target specifications? what do you do if something is out of spec? what is your accreditation? who regulates your company? I'm going to guess that most of those questions don't have answers. That sheet is a farce and simply a way to try and look like they're compliant, but anyone with at least a passing knowledge of quality and food safety practices knows that analysis sheet might as well be toilet paper for all the evidence it provides.

I know someone who is in Amare so I’ve been waiting for this!!!

[@rosariosalido9835]

Semi new subscriber, can't get enough of your videos!

[@TheHeltonFam]

This is so wild! 86% of the people in this company at the bottom don’t even make enough money to buy their own products and break even.

[@dorotak2075]

Yay!! Thank you Hannah for uploading😊 let’s start watching

As someone who uses spectrophotometry in the lab. That's the measure of light absorbed in a solution, pertaining to blood work usually. Don't know what that has to do with supplements.

[@theresamnsota3925]

I don’t know about others, but I absolutely look forward to my therapy appointments. I’d rather talk to my doctor than any MLM pitch.

[@KelliConan]

I’m feeling like some reps in this company are gonna do that dumb “cures your kid of autism” thing. We know it can’t be cured. I’m autistic and my mom and family had to deal with a lot with me while I was growing. I didn’t find out that I have that until my late 20s. I was diagnosed with a.d.d. and o.c.d. Which autistic people can have both. As we know that reps try to shell this idea to people if they’re in a wellness mlm or trying to make the products seem more like wellness that Autism can be cured or made so mild that it’s like the kid doesn’t have it anymore.

So i struggle with anxiety and depression my family member knows that, and i feel like she totally targeted me after she signed up for amare. She messaged me saying "i feel like happy juice can really help you, you just need to heal your gut" ive tried everything gut related under the sun and i have cone down to the conclusion that managing my anxiety symptoms with coping methods help way more than some supplements would. I have ptsd from childhood trauma and happy juice wont just make that go away. I am a little hurt that she tried ti pitch this to me as the cure all hoping id be a customer

[@KristinaVeshtort-Kask]

So sorry you had to put up with her nonsense - it's awful that people who fall for these scams go after their own family! Sadly, MLM reps see us as easy targets since it's so well known that people with depression and anxiety have problems with their digestive system. My first stay at the psychiatric hospital i was asked if I had any issues with my stomach and I was like "uh, yeah, why do you ask?" They had a special diet and offered some meds and stuff too. Also, back and neck pains are a common thing, because we tend to kinda curl into ourselves and are tensed up all the time. Take care, take your meds and ignore the snake oil peddlers!

[@carolsummers8734]

I had crippling panic attacks along with depression and anxiety. I did try vitamins, self talk, supplements, etc. The only thing that helped me was see a psychiatrist and going on medication. It took several trys with different medications until the right one worked for me.

[@TedApelt]

The way their comp plan uses words like "Heart" and "Mentor" is especially disturbing.

[@MrsMuffin11]

you are doing the most lately miss girl! love it! ❤️

[@partysuvius]

You could walk me through how to make toast for an hour and your voice would help me clean, _with gusto._ if you ever tire from making these videos (not entirely, of course), something silly and lighthearted would be a way to destress these stories and information lectures 😊 you have a calming, energizing voice. It fights my depression monster

[@GlassShark86]

If releasing an income disclosure statement is the company's choice, WHY do they do it? It just exposes them right?

[@michellew8332]

They can cover themselves legally by truthfully saying they informed the people falling victim for this stuff. Doesn't matter if they didn't read it or understand it. "They could have" is enough.

[@karleigh1769]

I know if so many people that have started selling this crap. I decided to look more into it once I started reading their claims

[@abbey5899]

if a scam hits your page that will help fix your brain thats amare

[@Artemis-jr3pz]

For anyone wondering about the math on recruiting 3 people who recruit 3 people, you can only do that 20 times before you exceed the population of the earth

I am a mental health professional and coach, I support supplements that help the gut brain axis. I would never tell someone on a pharmaceutical drug to get off of it and only use a specific product. Who says that? People also need to use discernment with everything they purchase. Period.

[@amyr4189]

With all this inflation you would think people wouldn’t be able to afford this stuff. The only advantage to a MLM is people getting in because people think they are going to make money.

[@CarrieJess]

Funny to become a mental health professional I was in college & grad school a total of 7 years & I hold 3 degrees & a licensure. I wish I had known all I had to do was spend a few hundred & join an MLM & off I could go.

[@sarahdoanpeace3623]

I used their products and haven’t been the same since. They’re super expensive and I swear they messed me up and made me more depressed. I won’t ever use them again nor do I endorse them at all.

[@Strugasaurasrex]

You are absolutely GLOWING in this video!!!

[@ib9911]

29:19 When talking about the percentage of members by rank, one way I think about it is that it's not that recruits have a less than half percent "chance" of making a livable wage. I think say that they have a 0.5% "chance" is too generous - it sort of implies that getting to the top is a lottery. The reality is that the half-percent of people making a livable wage are doing it on the backs of the 99.5% other people. I think it's important to emphasize to people trying to join is that it's not just about "hard work" or "chance" - the small numbers at the top are only possible because there are 99.5% other people. The money only flows upward, so as a new recruit, I would picture having to step on the backs of your entire downline, because your downline is also in the compensation plan. Success in an MLM isn't in a vacuum, every person in your upline and downline is somewhere in this compensation plan - and I think realizing just how many people you would have to recruit and exploit just to make a living wage is a much more tangible and realistic picture that helps us understand just how small that 0.5% is.

[@jenniferthurman1282]

After a few attempts at MLM’s, I knew they weren’t for me. I have never heard of this company. I hope that people steer clear of it. I know several people who struggle with mental health issues and they have learned that it takes much more than supplements to help them. This is a scam.

[@timriehl1500]

I wonder if they aren't setting themselves up for a lawsuit.

[@AlexandervanDijl]

Hey Hannah! Thank you for this video! I was invited to this organisation by someone I trusted (past tense). This video made it all clear!

[@underthemusicaltree]

This company and the claims that reps make, make me literally sick to my stomach.

[@aviendha4285]

I’ve been waiting to hear from you on this one!! So excited

[@desireechilton9619]

What’s noteworthy about the price point is that one of the many symptoms of depression, anxiety, etc is impulsiveness. They could easily reduce the costs of these supplements, but it’s apparent that they are preying on people with mental illness’ impulsiveness and willingness to pay that amount of money for help. Really adds another layer of shadiness.

[@madhatter2695]

As a former burned out mlm rep...cause the first thing I think of is positive mental health when I hear mlm

[@weaverofworlds22]

I have severe mental health issues and have had to wait up to 6 months just to see a doctor to get back on my meds. I ended up homeless just because my insurance changed

[@CarboneCat]

Amare is an awful MLM. Not only it blatantly aim at a particularly vulnerable clientele, it has a convoluted 30 pages comp plan that I bet no one fully understand.
