As someone with ADHD watching this, I just roll my eyes. We all struggle with, doesn't give you the right to be a jerk.

[@coolyeh1017]

I can sympathize with him to an extent as I have Tourette's (which can lead to unintended outbursts), it is rough having mental disorders like ADHD and the symptoms are different for people, some people have other triggers or distractions, etc. It is understandable it is more difficult for such people to filter or control their emotions, but it Pyro shouldn't solely blame the disorder for his own actions, if Pyro actually owned up to his actions and demonstrated that he is improving then I can forgive some mishaps here and there, it happens to the best of people. The problem is that it seems to be a recurring theme of him getting baited or having emotional outbursts, then he will apologize and claims to seek professional help, maybe he is seeking one but the therapy or medications may not be as effective as his professional thinks. Pyro needs to chill on the content creation stream, learn to filter the baits, and take a quick break while he consults with a medical professional. I know he has a couple mods that try to help him out there and there and filter out the obvious baits, but they are only human.

[@shrubninja6444]

Yeah if it were an occasional issue where he had an uncharacteristic outburst or something I would totally understand talking about his issues making things difficult. The problem is that these outbursts are the norm for him, and so it makes any apology seem super disingenuous. He needs to actually make an effort to change if he wants people to stop seeing him as an angry little drama troll.

[@kaster15]

Funnily enough. Him covering himself up with ADHD as an excuse brings back my trauma. A kid who had "ADHD" was given a free reign in middle school here (like 15 years ago) and everything he did, even if it almost killed me or my peers would be shrugged off "just ADHD thing" by the faculty. Yeah, Pyro can eat shit and start acting like a fucking adult and stop making excuses for his shit behaviour.

[@UTO7]

Especially with ADHD, it's pretty easy to notice a pattern in your behavior if you're trying. It also doesn't justify doubling down. I have ADHD and I've definitely said some dumb shit without thinking, but I almost always regret it immediately after instead of trying to convince everyone I'm actually right.

[@TheGreatJinx]

Nothing infuriates me more than somebody trying to use their ADHD as a shield. "Oh, I messed up? Well, it's not my fault, I have ADHD!" As if it absolves them from responsibility and consequences.

[@ilitsa]

As someone that was diagnosed with ADHD at 8 years old, and struggles DAILY to get their thoughts out exactly how I mean them to be, and not say or do something stupid that gets misconstrued, this clown will use any excuse possible to not take fault for his own stupid actions. Blame it on ADHD, blame it on mental health, blame it on XIV, blame it on twitter. IT. IS. HIM.

[@yeetusdeleetus4697]

Bruh, he said small things you disagree with online, you weird mfs think this man is like irredeemable and needs to lose his career because he typed a few things on twitter (that weren't even that bad) and he falls for bait in streams like 90% of streamers, the FFXIV community is just overwhelmingly shizo and one of the most hivemind toxic communities for any media that has ever existed.

[@midwestbox]

The obnoxious part is this clown doofus was acting the same way in wow. He was infamous for spazzing out over his brainlet theories when it came to wow lore. I don't feel sympathy for people who don't actively try to better themselves and just blame everything else except themselves.

[@ilitsa]

@@yeetusdeleetus4697 Where did I say any of that? He absolutely is redeemable. I said he wants to blame everything except himself for his actions. Yes he has a mental health issue and behavioral disorder that makes things a hell of a lot harder than it is for a neuro-typical person. It sucks. People with ADHD have harder times filtering stuff sometimes. We also don't form the positive habits like a typical person. Taking a shower, brushing my teeth etc is a conscious decision I HAVE to tell myself to make every day, otherwise I won't do it. Even to my closest friends who know and understand my issues, I will retype every text to them 4-5 times because I don't want to make a mistake with what I say. Having ADHD means you have to learn ways to work around what's simply a natural thing for other people. You have to look at your issues and choose to take one step at a time every single day. It will never just be normal, even when medicated. All I said was that he's choosing to put the blame and fault of his issues on everything except himself. He deserves his career. I want him to succeed.

[@yeetusdeleetus4697]

@@ilitsa then you're one of the vast minority here. Also he did not blame his ADHD, he put a whole video out after that one saying that he wasn't deflecting blame, but rather explaining his pov and what leads him to those moments when he fails to control himself/his emotions. Every single person commenting is likely guilty of far worse than one slightly rude tweet.

[@DonnieDarkoRemains]

@@ilitsa My wife suffers from ADHD and works as a Sales Manager. The stress is intense on her, but even with her mental health issue she NEVER lets it affect her work or how she interacts with people. She treats people with absolute respect and is a sweetheart to her team, even when they make mistakes (albeit these mistakes don't happen often, but still). So seeing This dude throws all of his problems at his ADHD, like it's some remedy that's supposed to fix any fuck up or ill treatment he has of others online. That's never acceptable. This attitude just pisses me off and spits in the face of other individuals who actually MANAGE their disorders and go on living their lives without blaming their issues solely on their mental inhibitions, be it anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, ect. Anyways, I agree. If he's going to improve his overall mental health and mood, he actually needs to address the problem instead of simply blaming it for his life's misfortunes. That attitude simply becomes repetitive and leads to an unhealthy cycle of self destruction, apologizing, never improving and then inevitably waiting to fuck up again.

[@madsraine6705]

This whole saga is giving me the vibes of "emotionally manipulating my viewers into feeling sorry for me". Everyone has things they have to go through, trials and tribulations. And just because he has ADHD doesn't mean that he can suddenly do and behave as he wants. My daughter suffers from SEVERE ADHD and I tell her all the time "Having a mental disadvantage does not mean you get a hall pass to act like a jerk." I always reiterate daily "Treat others the way you want to be treated, do to others the way you want them to do to you." Pyro seemed to miss that memo. I have ADHD, Bipolar, PTSD, anxiety, etc., and I could never imagine using any of those as a crutch to why I did something like this. Hell I was told I only produce 15-20% of serotonin and I still make sure I brighten everyone's day I come across just because I never want them to feel how I did with my years of abuse. You don't use your trauma as a get out of jail free card, same with mental disadvantages/disabilities. It takes approximately $0.00 to take accountability, ownership, and responsibility of your actions and work towards changing them in whatever means necessary (therapy, different med swaps, other forms of professional help, etc.) Just my hot take on the situation. I'll be glad when he finally gets his shit together because this is no longer accidental, this is a choice in behavior *shrug*

[@Terrible_name]

"emotionally manipulating my viewers into feeling sorry for me" He had a thing a while ago with his girlfriend (fiance? wife? whatever) figuring out she can't have kids via a miscarriage. Perfectly reasonable thing for a person to get emotional about, and if they as a couple want to make that public via a stream or whatever, that's fine. I wouldn't recommend that, but they're free to tell whoever, however. He milked that stream so hard, being as dramatic and emotionally dejected and sad as possible. And normally I wouldn't call that "milking the stream" because again, perfectly reasonable thing to be upset about. But whenever someone made a big donation or there was a technical problem, He would instantly switch over on a dime from openly sobbing and forcefully crying to being totally cheerful/annoyed and addressing it in his normal, every day tone as if nothing had happened, then forget briefly what he was talking about before going right back into the weeping and struggling to talk about it. I could deal with his annoying outbursts and kinda cringe behavior, but that was the stream that made me fully stop paying attention to him (I gotta click on my favorite ract strimmer's take though) It's absolutely emotional manipulation, and he's not even good at it. He's said himself that it's all to drive engagement and get that internet money. What he didn't say is that it's also what xeno keeps saying: it's about ego and attention and validation

I said this on his videos and I'm going to say it here. I was in an emotionally, mentally and physically abusive relatioship for 3 years and at the tail end of that, I sat in a hospital for two weeks watching my newborn daughter in a NICU unit pass away slowly. I have been through some shit NO ONE should ever have to deal with in their life time. Its been 5 years and I'm still absolutely broken. The amount of depression and anxiety I feel knows no bounds, I can barely leave my house to even get the mail without crumbling. I barely sleep, because the night terrors from that trauma is so frequent and so real. I have never in my life treated someone else the way Pyro continuously treats people. I make mistakes, I snap sometimes, I over react, etc. Because everyone does, because thats being human. The difference is the severity of when Pyro does it, and he just keeps going, he doesn't stop and go ohp I messed up. He double downs, triple downs, and then when finally the entire internet is at his throat he makes some garbage apology video while stroking his ego. He's a pos and hes an egotistical narcissist. Point blank. Him blaming every single meltdown he has had over all the years of WoW and now XIV on mental health bothers me a lot. As it clearly bothers a lot of people from the chat in the vod for this video, but also in the comment section. People like Pyro are the reason why mental health is so stigmatized, and why so many people think its just some made up non sense, because you have clowns like this that use it as an excuse everytime they go nuclear for 0 reason. He needs to stop streaming, and he honestly needs to stop playing XIV.

I will admit, The first few incidents i was on the "Just leave Pyro alone" train. But as they kept popping up, I started watching less and less. Then when I heard he quit his job and bought a new house JUUUST as his MSQ hype was at peak, I KNEW that was a very bad decision knowing the FFXIV community. I to have come the the realization that streamimg just might not be for him...or at least streaming as a JOB. He has, unfortunately, shown that people can get to him, and they absolutely will take advantage of that EVERY chance they can. I feel he now thinks he is stuck...new house, new wife that has had some serious medical issues very recently, and seriously declining viewers and subs. That, combined with his inablity to control his emotions has exacerbated his issues and he is now self imploding.

As someone with ADHD, i understand why it happened and why he acts like this and why he made the mistakes he made.

[@boanoah6362]

ADHD doesn't make you a toxic angry entitled asshole, sorry not sorry, I have ADHD and I've had it since I was a kid, it fucks up my ability to focus on things. It doesn't cause anger issues, it doesn't cause people to have a short fuse on benign topics, it doesn't make you scream at your audience because of a high chair in a video game. He's a petulant asshole blaming his angry outbursts on an inability to focus and on his penchant to act before thinking, none of which actually covers his ACTUAL problems. I'm sick and tired of people using their mental health disorders as shields for being mean awful people, if you have ODD (like I do) then I can forgive you for being an ass and being angry when someone tries to pull authority. If you have depression and anxiety then I can forgive you for not sticking to plans or socializing, if you have schizophrenia then I can forgive you for having a manic episode. But if you're coming to me telling me that you beat your wife because you have ADHD or that you solicit minors online because you have depression then no, that's just you being a shitty awful person. That's Pyro, that's this apology from him, it's garbage.

[@LockelyFox]

Exactly this. I have ADHD, it's pretty bad because I can't afford the medication so it's self managed with caffeine and trying to stick to routines. I don't blow up on my viewers or lose my shit because of it. Outward explosive rage is a symptom of *childhood* ADHD, not /adult/ ADHD. By the time you're an adult, the struggle is internal, not external. We lack impulse control, true, but we're not ragemonsters. Pyro's anger may be contributed to by the frustration that comes with ADHD, but it's not the overall cause, and it's not an excuse. He needs anger management tools.

[@acillius2]

That's the issue with people these days, they use the health issues as an excuse to act out. It is also why i do not stream, I wanted to but very quickly learned that it is not for me because I have many issues in my life that I am still dealing with and working on to improve myself from many moments of my life and I do not want to make them public. Pyro needs to take a step back to be honest and just do some self reflection, get off the internet, and touch some grass, for a long time. I do, I spend more time outside now than I ever have and it helped my mental health more than I can imagine and i am glad for that.

My psych helped me get medicated and I put myself in a 10-hour-a-week group therapy program for 2 months while working a full time job and now it's been a few months with blessedly no incidents.

I have ADHD and I understand emotional outbursts and irrational reactions because I used to have them badly. Full on uncontrollable crying panic attacks at work if a customer or manager chewed me out. It was BAD and it gave me horrible depression. Eventually I decided enough was enough. I got a formal diagnosis and help, and while I still experience issues, it's much less severe or frequent. ADHD might be an explanation for something but it is not an excuse. Plenty of people with ADHD are not assholes. Plenty of people without ADHD are assholes. It sucks to have a brain that does this to you, believe me, I know, but you have to learn to deal with it. It's just what you have to do as a responsible adult who socially interacts with people. If you lash out at someone who does not deserve it, whether you have ADHD or not: you apologize!

Its really a situation where "I see where I am messing up and I am presenting as vulnerable, I will only hold myself accountable enough to try to manipulate you into believing I am getting better and working on myself" to just turn around and continue doing the same things with no reflection. As if the pity party makes it all go away. People are not asking for unreasonable accountability. He is the one making this WAY BIGGER than it even needs to be.

[@riphope3470]

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria RSD is real, but using it as an excuse to shit on others is wild. Hes so desperate in finding a villain he will even blame a video game instead of touching some grass

[@StayNightGaming]

My 2 cents as someone that does have PTSD and a few issues that come with that, it definitely CAN negatively impact the way you react to certain stimuli, and sometimes you don't have a lot of control in that exact moment, but I personally get help as needed. I have methods of coping with my issues, and I avoid that stimuli whenever it's possible for me to do so. Obviously the world isn't perfect and you can't have 100% control over what happens every moment of every day but you can at least try to minimise it. In this case if I were him, I wouldn't be using social media at all, and definitely wouldn't be streaming because clearly that is a stimuli that triggers and exacerbates his issues. My doctor gave me a really good comparison when I was younger that put it into perspective. Especially since I never took my mental health seriously as a young man, having always recieved the typical "man up" response when it came to my mental problems. Treat it like it's a physical ailment. If you had a problem with your lungs where you occasionally had trouble breathing you should obviously therefore avoid smoking. If you have a torn muscle in your arms or back or whatever, where it hurts to do any physical activity, the last thing you should be doing is hitting the gym and deadlifting 200kg. TLDR, don't actively engage in activities that exacerbate your pre-existing issues.

[@snoof8995]

this is wild, i hope somebody is making a documentary on all the pyromancer drama over the years

[@zynrah5660]

If he believes his own shit then someone did him a crazy disservice telling him he cant do anything to manage his problems. By his logic, we're all just lumbering sacks of our own trauma and experiences, being led about by the whims of our own emotions and triggers. Basically everything sucks but it's no ones fault. Which is just not true. There are plenty of people with more shit than him who deal with it way better. There are plenty of people with less shit than him who are way worse. It's all in what you do with it. You can have no experience with his issues and still look at what he's doing and say it is fucked and he needs to be better if he wants to be a successful public figure. That's not cold or showing a lack of understanding. It's just fact.

[@Egolithz]

Stopped around the 15 minute mark to say that as a person who has Multiple Sclerosis: I empathize that you have a condition, but man you could have it a hell of a lot worse. I try not to complain anymore about my MS as I've had it for roughly 8 years now, but I could complain about how I will sleep for a week straight or that I have to go on disability because I can't hold a position. Imagining that I graduated college and then get something that changes your life course dramatically sucks, but I know people have it way worse than even I do. So I really hate how he uses something that a lot of people suffer with as an excuse for his shitty behavior. Nah man, you just have a shitty behavior and it doesn't come from your ADHD.

[@Starrky923]

Dealing with bipolar disorder and same, seeing people blame things on bipolar and even getting away with it is so cringe. In new few years ago there was some guy who wrecked whole hospital waiting room and got away with it because he was diagnosed with bipolar, absolute madness

[@OurHereafter]

He needs to to just go back to gaming. Wait a few months and start posting videos again and just try not fuck it up. The more he rehashes it the longer its gonna take to get back to normal

[@konshance]

11:42 I really dont get it either. like the key to being a adult is dealing with your own shit. you have your shit to deal with. I got my shit. It becomes a problem when your shit or my shit spills into each others shit. Like its all shit. doesn't matter how bad it is or less bad it is to me or to you. we dont want to deal with each other's shit lol. its not a dick measuring game. like why should I care you have adhd. its YOUR problem. its not a excuse.

[@Chezna.]

💯 agree with you again. Your mental health is NOT AN EXCUSE to be an asshole. It means he needs to be more vigilant about how he's feeling and know when to call it a day when streaming!

[@Zalikor_Gaming]

Autistic, depression, adhd, anxiety, ptsd I still treat people better than he does lol his problems are not something to be used as an excuse, yeah it makes things tough at TIMES but having a lack of remorse is nothing something it affects

[@ZatheHeals]

I'm late to this video but as a new viewer of your content recently, this guy pisses me off. I have disabilities related to military trauma. I have a personality disorder, severe anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc. and yet, I still do not take my issues out online with others. If anything, gaming online helps nurture some of the issues I do have. If this guys problems are that bad, he needs medication, therapy, something.

[@Mathren1]

Pyro always pulls this "aw shucks" shit and it's just so clearly a put-on for when people get mad at him because he flipped out. If you've ever watched like 10 minutes of his streams, you'll see that he's just constantly on edge and sniping at people.

[@lunaticmode638]

5:45 he basically came up with absolutely unhinged lore speculations and then had a meltdown when it didnt turn out to be true

[@SteveWebb-tb2ir]

He was cast out from the WoW community because he stole other class guide writers content and passed it off as his own. He also begged his viewers for money for his mother to move house but then bought a new car a week later.

[@vielara]

Wasn't there another instance during his WoW days where he asked for money for rent or some such then a couple of weeks later he unboxed a couple thousand dollars worth of WoW merch on stream, and his viewers thought he used the "rent money" to buy it? It was a few years ago. Still scummy as shit to do to people who support you but nothing surprises me about Pyro anymore.

[@Peaceful_Hermit]

I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and it's fucked my life over. I've lost jobs because of it. But you know what I don't do? Be a complete asshole to people around me. I've had moments of assholiness but I don't blame it on my depression, even if those moments happened on days when I was feeling like crap. That said, depression isn't something that's easy to deal with and it changes from person to person. But that doesn't mean you can go around being a cunt. When I made a mistake with my jobs, I did my best to make sure it doesn't happen again. FF14 helped me survive when I didn't know what was wrong with me. All I knew was that I wanted to die and my friends in FF14 and the game helped me cope, until I finally went to a doctor and learnt that I was suffering from depression. My only real problem with Pyro is that this seems to be a pattern. When I lost jobs to my depression, I did everything I could to make sure that it didn't happen again. I've even improved and only missed a total of 4 days of work in the whole past year, which I'm actually pretty happy about. Keeping my fingers crossed that I continue to improve. Sorry for the long ass comment, didn't mean to write this much.

[@lastdayer101]

Drama videos aren't the most viewed videos in the FFXIV community, its the music tracks and trailers.

[@CryptoSisco]

I take the exact medications he takes, and I've fallen off them before...you know what you do? "Hey I'm going to avoid going into a situation that may upset or set me off, I need to take a step away." You learn to deal with it, medication isn't a magic fix. It is a tool to help you. You have to take action.

[@krislikewoah]

I'll never forget in his WoW days another big creator made a meme of his Argus artwork and made a competition out of it. It set him off and he went off in a video. He eventually went back and edited it out. So he has BEEN like this.

[@tanddss]

Look up the definition of a covert narcissist 'cause this dude is IT. "Some situations that might trigger a covert narcissist include: Being ignored, feeling disrespected, threats to their ego, feelings of shame, being around high-status people, feeling less attractive or less educated that others, having less of something that others, not getting the attention they deserve, jealousy, lack of control." 🤔🤔🤔

[@coreydillon4330]

What people like Pyro seem to not grasp is people don’t come to watch the content, they come to watch YOU REACT to the content. For Example, Grinding Gear has created such an enjoyable community experience as Kyle and Garret make their way through the FF14 MSQ. They allow people to RP during points in the story, and provide very hilarious Voice acting during non voices segments. There’s theory crafting and all kinds of activities. Plus their chemistry together has made people interested in them streaming more games together like Diablo 4 and FF16.

[@Soress9]

I've loved watching Kyle and Garret go through it all. Preach was also very enjoyable with all the voices he's come up with.

[@terezii]

I LOVE KYLE AND GARRET

[@WijaVT]

[@katarh]

The GG guys are one of a small number of content creators I support directly. I'll watch the ads for most folks on KZbin with the volume on my headset turned down, or at least the first 30 seconds of em so they get credit. But the joy they bring is worth a couple of bucks a month to me.

[@GigasGalvantula]

If he has both bipolar and adhd alot of what he says about his adhd is probablly closer to what bipolar does But theyd both interact with wach other and make each other worse however This sounds like him playing the victim

[@christophernegron9497]

I dont know who this pyromancer guy is, but I have ADHD as well. You are still in control of your actions, ADHD doesnt MAKE you say outlandish things. Outlandish things pop up in my brain everyday but its my choice to act on my bullshit or not

[@naruheme5268]

Y'know I struggle with anxiety so strong that it causes physical pain that loops into itself and makes it worse until I either pass out or somehow server the loop with medication or other mitigation. I don't lash out at others, and if I know a panic attack or undue stress is coming I leave the stressor until I can come back with a clearer mind. The only time my problems can impede with life is when I black out from sound or shock. But that's because I seek help with medication and techniques. They're not an excuse to lean back into if I feel I want to lash out.

[@naruheme5268]

Also I'm in a wheelchair from the sound problem making me collapse onto my knee and now I'm getting buff biceps until I get that thing fixed. I'm not letting that get me down either even with depression making me want to inflect self harm when the pain gets too strong and triggers the fibromyalgia pain and makes life suck then pass out

[@kapified]

I am autistic and have ADHD as well. My take is that he really should find a different career. I don't know this dude, but I know from my life experience, proper counseling and proper ADHD medication can be amazing for some of us. Making your mental illness your personality trait is.. odd to me.

[@naota909]

"at least you have hair!" dam that hit different

[@ScarecrowJames]

He was striking ginger prime. Ginger tried to be reasonable. Imo fuck Pyro

[@shrubninja6444]

The thing that really gets me is that he's just dismissing his mental problems as something that's inevitable. If you work to control yourself, seek some counseling, medicate if you need to, just work on your state of mind and avoid the things that set you off, you wont be flying off the handle and ruining your own life all the time. I have pretty bad anger issues, and I used to have some pretty serious depression. I straight up attacked my boss once after a few particularly stressful days of work. I went to counseling, identified the different stressors in my life, and now I can identify when something is making me upset and I keep calm. This was all a few years back and now most people I know don't even know I have anger problems. It takes effort and work to improve your situation, but you have to acknowledge that you're in control and thus your actions are still your fault regardless of whatever conditions you have. That's impossible if you constantly blame everything else in your life for your actions.

[@Thevideogamejoker]

As someone who been diagnosed with depression (thankfully lot better now) I can say it really makes me annoyed when people use that as a crutch for how they behave. Cause my depression is what made me start doing youtube again and at most maybe I dropped hints of it in post or vids but never was very vocal about it. Only time id even really speak on the subject is when id tell my viewers like hey i need a extra day or two just mentally not doing the best and that was it. I never used depression as a excuse for my actions. Infact my last time being very depressed sent me to the emergency room from starving myself for 2 days without food and after vommiting so much non stop, sweating from every part of my body I realized I need to change my life around. So Started doing youtube again. And never once have I ever ever blamed my depression on treating someone badly. Cause even as someone who suffers from depression I know that's not right, and honestly I try hard to treat everyone really good and with respect. Im not perfect no one is but this idea of people using illnesses to always justify their bad actions is sickening. But you know what im not a doctor im not pyromancer so I cant speak on his problems. But bro all he has to do is accept he made a mistake, apologize and try to be better, its really not that hard. This dude ego what seems to be really out of control. Again I don't want to hate on this guy ect but its so frustrating as someone who doesn't watch but knows who he is and just see him act this way. To me personally seems like the first apology was cause he was worried about losing out on money and viewers which help generate money even if they don't sub. And ehhh its frustrating to put the least. Hopefully this dude gets the help he needs cause till his ego comes down a few notches idk but I don't see his channel or streams doing to good.

[@AnnaVictrix]

Pyro just seems like the kind of arrogant yet insecure personality who flips out when he doesn’t have everyone’s agreement or praise.

[@bean2122]

I am someone who deals with ADHD/Autism... watching this irk me. Please stop pointing blame to your disorders lol. Regardless YOU are still responsible and accountable for your action. You did those things. Stop pointing blame for your action onto other things. Your disorders aren’t an excuse for bad actions. Stop using it as a clutch. Many people struggle with mental health and don’t use it as a clutch. You are only harming yourself by using your disorders as a clutch and the reason why you make poor choices. Stop. Own up to your action and strive to learn from those mistakes. YOU are responsible for your action NOT your disorders. Your disorder isn’t your entire personality. Seek proper help and stop hiding behind the … oh well it’s because of my adhd .

[@forterocks123]

I came from the OG wave ADHD and Autism in the 90's, Pyros issue isn't that he has these issues, it's that he genuinely invests too much time on social media which can really make you cranky and crazy. Is Autism & ADHD hard to deal with? sure is. But blaming them for being a dickhead to people is absurd, I hate being wrong, I've been called an asshole many times but I apologize when I mess up. Pyros real problem is that he doesn't care, he's had a reputation before FFXIV, he carried his reputation over and slowly people got burnt out on him. Lets not forget he had a meltdown on stream, another youtuber made a video about it with the clip of the meltdown and he DMCA'd it, ADHD & AUTISM doesn't cause you to take a swing at fake copyrights and affect other peoples income and hobbies.

[@ipsyop]

a phrase an NCO told me a long time ago when I was in the army, was "your problems are not my responsibilities" and though it was directly about me it was more related to a situation outside the army I was going through etc. when he said that to me it truly changed my perspective on how I approach things, like I will try to help someone but if it's like every week you keep coming to me for help with x, y or z. I tell em I care but I repeat what that NCO told me years ago.

[@FutayuriShironeko]

I had heavy mental issues 7-8 years ago, my life quality was going downhill quick. I did not seek therapy or anything of the sort. I signed up for military service, ngl first 2 months was worse than ever, since no one knew about my problems, was ending up nearly crying in the bathroom at night for good 20 mins, just feeling sorry for myself. After 2 more months due to all the training and physical exhaustion i was ending up too tired to feel the mental rut and depression. 7 months in the service I became numb to my own mental issues and finally started to feel happiness in my accomplishments. After my service was done, mental problems no longer had any impact to my psyche, they simply became irrelevant to me. Now I'm in such a strong mental state to the point where i can relate to others mental problems, but they seem like first world problems to me. Sometimes it takes real struggles to overcome these minor nuisances that are mental problems. Why do i call them minor? Because after overcoming them that's exactly how they feel to me. Most of the time, therapy doesn't help in any permanent way if your own mental shift doesn't happen. It's your own mental shift is what solves majority of mental issues, not some dude with the degree in psych. Yes, therapists have their own value in the process, but they can't incur your mental to shift back to normal.

[@KabukiJava]

I have ADD and anxiety and yes a lot of us are sensitive to criticism like a simple comment ends up sticking with you for days and it’s all you can think about however this is not and should never be an excuse to lash out at others. It is our responsibility as adults to do what we can to control our emotions, for me that was getting cognitive behavioral therapy for pyro he might want to rethink his career choices or get therapy to learn to handle criticism but a job that involves being exposed to a lot of criticism just might not be a good fit for him and he should take responsibility for that.

[@MegaPewPew]

"My adhd makes me overly prideful" - That's it, that's the video. Pyro is so self absorbed, it's so over for him.

[@RoyJrthe2nd]

Having a disability sucks. It really does. While it does make certain aspects of social life more difficult, using it as an excuse infuriates me. While it makes life harder, you're still responsible for your own actions. While ADHD can be a factor, it's not the source. And you're responsible to do what you can to mediate yourself.

[@dhsyn666]

I have real anger issues where I've said and done stupid stuff out of anger. As I got older with more responsbilities, I changed not just because I wanted to be a better person but because I had to deal with the repercussions from my actions. Pyro is acting on it because he doesn't have to deal with the consequences of his actions. He gets to keep his YT channel , money, way of life and people around him who will enable him because he supports them. Until he truly suffers a repercussion he will never change and this is only a part of his pattern. At this point it's less ADHD and more Narcissism.

[@AnnaVictrix]

[@shanehunt3019]

As someone who has had ADHD diagnosed since I was single digit age, and been apart of multiple therapy groups; BEING AN ASS IS NOT A SYMPTOM. ADHD is impulsiveness, not being able to focus or organize, some cases even getting frustrated easily, etc. If your impulse is to snap in a negative manner, ADHD caused the impulse, being the ass is on you.

[@daniellambeth6769]

I have been diagnosed with ADHD and probably have depression but that hasn't been diagnosed. I think the mental illness is a battle against a very strong enemy. I can't really blame people when they falter. It all sucks. But what I don't agree with is mentioning it in an apology. I have ADHD and it might contribute to some really dumb, impulsive decisions. But it isn't like I couldn't have controlled myself better. I know my situation. If I say something impulsive and hurt someone, my apology isn't "sorry, it was the ADHD." My apology is "I fucked up and should not have said that. There is no excuse, it was a mistake that I wish I could undo. I hope you can forgive me."

[@darkoverlord4447]

[@KutluMizrak]

I'm younger than xeno by only slightly. Back when I was a kid, this diagnosis mania was just starting out. I was hyperactive as fuck, naturally aggressive and an all around hell child. My dad's a medical doctor and one of his psychiatrist friends tried to diagnose me with ADHD. Then issue me a "mild" medication. I took it for a day and promptly turned into a goddamn zombie, my mother's words translates from Turkish. So my dad immediately took me off the med, got me into kids basketball and started training me physically himself outside. That ADHD diagnosis was severe by today's standards. And I.... Outgrew it. My father taught me the skills to manage my anger, my basketball coaches taught me how to focus energy and aggression into productive action. Psychologists and psychiatrists have a confirmation bias. Most kids diagnosed by ADHD will effing outgrow it. Stop using the freaking diagnosis as a crutch. No, you do not have ADHD, only a small percentage of adults have actual crippling ADHD. Because actual crippling ADHD is so bad, you would not be able to be a streamer. What you have is a chronic case of being an asshole. And this goes out to not just Pyro but anyone who uses a childhood diagnosis to justify being an asshole the rest of their lives. Much love, - An asshole that at least has some self awareness

[@shrubninja6444]

I was also misdiagnosed with ADHD when I was a kid. I don't remember what the medication was but it gave me really bad headaches so my parents stopped pretty quickly. My current roommate does have legitimate, medically diagnosed ADHD and bipolar disorder and it's very noticeable, and much different from the usual self-diagnosis you usually see from somebody who just has a short attention span. And even then, he doesn't use those conditions as an excuse to be an asshole to people. I know he feels the urge to, since we talk about stuff like that as roommates, but he's an adult and he knows how to control himself.

[@Happygolucky1313]

As someone who recently got their ADHD dignosis and medication for it: Being undignosed and/or unmedicated can be hellish. BUT: Pyro claims to be medicated and getting help. Another part of getting help is finding other coping mechanisms to work WITH the medication and therepy to improve your life. Also stopping/lessoning the behaviours that fuck up your life. Pyro is just throwing himself a fuckin pity party cause he is getting called out on his shit. He is like.... the god king of missing the fucking point. Why is he torturing himself like this? Is the amount of money he is getting worth it?

[@boodysnagglers]

There are a ton of contradictions in his video lol. He can't say he struggles with impostor syndrome and like he doesnt deserve the attention he receives but then feel like if you aren't directly paying for a sub or watching ads and giving him money, you shouldn't be giving him attention. His apologies don't feel like apologies and more just "listen to me sympathy bait to try and justify my shit decisions and opinions"

[@Alanari]

As someone with ADHD, rejection sensitive dysphoria is a real thing. It doesn't affect everyone with ADHD, but it is absolutely a thing and there is psychological research on it. People with RSD tend to feel negative feedback and abuse more strongly than a neurotypical person might. That said; even if you lash out at someone without thinking; you have to acknowledge it and try to do better. Also, it isn't an excuse to say shitty, egotistical things to people online.

[@GARCIIIAmonster]

Not everyone needs a huge public persona to be happy and i think this dude should just find something healthier for him tbh. My issues don't make me toxic like this but I had many many nights that rumors at my expense made me soy side all and I just bottled it up and ruined my body trying to hide how much having even a SMALL following was affecting me.

He's blaming other people for how they react to his behavior, which is a huge red flag to me. It's a big thing for manipulative personalities. "Yeah I did that thing to you but you're supposed to be more understanding and tolerate it because of X, Y, and Z."

[@lsmith604]

I have depression, anxiety (those run in my family) and I have ADD (not exactly ADHD but it's similar) and I make it a point to not ever directly blame those for my actions or inactions. At most I will explain that a task was difficult because I was distracted or something along those lines but I never use my mental illness as an excuse or a crutch. I am actually disgusted by people who do use it in that way because so many use it so prevalently that it's seriousness has been watered down and people are capable of being better than that.
