Coping, Attachment & Chaos - Talking with xQc

[@toomanysymbols]

it's actually pretty insane how much these abstract psychological conversations can be mapped onto other people's lives. like our lifepaths are completely different, but i understand almost everything he's talking about, and i can see how the solutions would apply to my own life. this is why i love psychology

I want to back what xqc said about Dr K using short but impactful sentences. I am scientist and watch a lot of scientific, medical and mental health content on social media and I find that Dr K speaking has a very unique way to be altogether easily relatable, scientifically accurate, informative AND actionable. I don't know any other content creator who provide content that is so heavily packed in actually useful insights and a different perspective on things that makes you reflect, without ever being condescending. Just wanted to show appreciation for that :-)

[@notarielle441]

i am diagnosed adhd and autistic, and i relate to Felix so much on how my brain works. it feels like my mind NEVER shuts up or fully shuts down unless i’m drunk or on some kind of mind-numbing substance it’s constantly a battle to balance everything in your life and be a functional adult that i used to just give up and not care about what happens to me i had to let go of high value friends that were also high depend bc i could not give the same energy back. thankfully, those friends eventually understood that i’m trying my best and toning down their attention to me is what made them okay with me not constantly reaching out to them. so glad he’s getting some help or taking about all of it since therapy for a few years was the only thing that worked for me

[@Chizuru94]

Felix also has ADHD and a ton of struggles with it (as do I), so same :) I wish more people knew how related it allis and how much we struggle D: Instead, we are usually just a joke and get told to just do better and quit whining, but if someone was in our shoes just for a day or a week or even a month, they'd want to go back to their old life asap, but we can't just do that :/

[@scamps9449]

I was told by docs I prob have ADHD and am pretty sure I have bipolar I because of diagnoses and opinions from multiple doctors (said prob because I am hesitant about the diagnostic system overdiagnosing and identifying to much with it in general) and relate to it all way to much. A lot of the time I can just pool out paragraphs or jump from one to another. A lot of the time sitting down and watching a movie or TV show even is impossible for me. Substance use felt like the only cure to calm down and it just created infinitely more problems, these days I’m just trying to adapt to what my brain is interested in and wants to do

[@zodsi]

[@oo0OAO0oo]

@notarielle441 it really sometimes hits like a brick when you read (or hear) that there are actually people who experience the same. I was in therapy for depression when I realized that I have ADHD through googling a symptom I have, without knowing why that could be. I ended up on a Forum and I didn't payed attention to the Forum name, but I've read two pages and everything they wrote was me. Then I saw it was an ADHD Forum. I told my therapist that I have the suspicion of having ADHD and she immediately, without saying anything further, said she thinks that I do (have it) as well. Unfortunately this was the second to last session before she moved and I didn't have any replacement, so I never did any proper analysis or diagnosis. So I had this thoughts often and often lately and bothered me: I'm kinda not myself until my brain shut down a bit, when I'm drunk or quasi-drunk, aka sleep deprived. And when I just read your comment, it hit me like a brick. This whole interview/ discussion with Felix had a lot of my mindset in it and ai thought no one could understand that. Because nobody I know is like that and I always was different. I didn't even knew what it was until I had this realization in adolescence. Now I'm 28 years of age and I'm still trying to figure out and struggle about myself.

[@Fantazy1028]

Man, the hate comments and focus on his internet drama here are really sad. It’s a minority, sure, but seeing it at all is disheartening. The dude is pouring his heart out about how he feels like his life is falling apart and feels hopeless about fixing it, and people are talking about react drama that will be a blip in everyone’s lives within a month. Any amount of empathy makes it clear how vulnerable he is making himself here- talking about how he feels like he’s at rock bottom, and people still feel the need to shit on him because they don’t like his take on react content. It’s also absolutely clear that a lot of his more immature or inflammatory reactions lately stem from this dark point in his life. You would think it would at least make him sympathetic enough to not attack his character right here but I guess not. I don’t really watch XQC like I used to, and actually dislike how he handled himself recently around react stuff, but it literally takes a drop of humanity to see the guy is really struggling. It feels so gross to shit on him in this setting.

[@bxbydrxgxn]

I know nothing about xqc, but I'm very familiar with suffering from mental health issues. Just taking the step of seeking help and talking about it gives me anxiety, so for him to discuss this so openly makes him completely vulnerable. To attack someone in such a position is so crummy. It seems so hard for some people to have a little compassion just because the person in question is rich or successful.

This made me realize that rich people who are extroverts are far more likely to be taking advantage of and thus feel lonely versus the introverts who are comfortable being alone.

[@cli.]

I feel that Dr. K is really amazing at creating this judgment-free environment so that even Felix doesn't feel the need to react defensively. It's clear that he's really responsive to his gentle approach. I was surprised by how self-aware he was, and how good he was at expressing his feelings. The video itself was sad to watch because you'd expect someone as successful as him to be in a better position to make himself happier, but it seems like he's suffering from it all terribly. I had to stop watching lately, after the whole H3 thing, because he was behaving in a really immature way. I didn't recognize him anymore, with how he was flaunting his wealth, and how his negativity was bleeding into his content. I noticed that he started using really gloomy language since a while back, and I found that quite alarming. My hope is that he'll start surrounding himself with people that genuinely cares about him. Seems like that's what he needs the most right now.

[@franjkav]

This whole comment is odd. One could argue Dr. K is reacting (well) to Felix’s gentle approach and not the reverse as you stated. Dr. K has expertise in coaching but only Felix has expertise in Felix-Dr. K isn’t dictating the approach, he is matching it, it’s mutual. Also “I was surprised…” is a backhanded compliment in this context. You could simply say you appreciated x, y, z things. The rest of the comment is a bunch of subjective judgments, observations, and assumptions (one doesn’t in fact have to assume being “successful” means happy or whatever) as well as an airing of grievances. Save it for Reddit or somewhere else.

Ugh… it is gut wrenching to listen to someone for the first time who has been through the same “loss of home” as I have. Unfortunately I didn’t have a sense of safe “home” much as a child and building that as a nearly 30 year old on my own is difficult. Without feeling like you have a safe “home” almost everything else in your life becomes 10x harder. You have no solid foundation to build on so you end up in survival mode all the time. We NEED people we can rely on in life. It’s part of being human. When we don’t… we suffer.

[@Chizuru94]

1:10:00 Omg, exactly the same for me. I relate to a lot here. Also, the ADHD doesn't make consistency or not frigging up all the stuff all the time almost immediately any easier. One just knows and experiences failure all the time, so ofc we learn to predict it and try to not experience more of it, still while desperately trying to chase our dreams and stuff. It's just the worst.

[@oConshien]

Scratched phone analogy, I felt. Think it also relates to the whole, psychological weight of growing up with ADHD and failing things / letting things fall through the cracks / letting people down, but not from a lack of effort or caring. Eventually, it's easier to say, "let's embrace the chaos" and not ever try to climb the 'wall of awful'. Over time our ego learns to protect itself (and perhaps, in attempt to protect those we care about) because it hurts less to fail if we know we didn't try than to actually try really hard and still not succeed the way you think we should be able to.

It’s interesting and fun to watch dr.k talk to all these streamers and see more of the side of the person and not the streamer

[@oo0OAO0oo]

Honestly. I couldn't stop watching. It was an honest and thoughtful interaction. And I found my self A LOT in Felix shoes. Maybe it's a ADHD thing and it hasn't be the norm for everyone, but I see myself in this mindset too. I don't really know XQC or watch him, but I was surprised anyway, in how he is processing with things internally. I didn't expect to find myself there. Of all places, I never heard someone talking about this, nor describing things in the way he did. So Dr. K and Felix did have to a big extent my internal thoughts and mindset discussed. It was like watching my internal discussions on screen, which is weird but also refreshing and helpful. It reminded me that I have to work harder on myself. Thank you all for doing this.

[@Drakonus_]

I mean, he had a whole drama about illegally taking Adderall which turned out to be untrue because he actually had ADHD and was prescribed to take them by the doctor. So you're relating a lot more because you both probably have more struggles in common.

[@nowie4007]

So I am not alone with ADHD who related to Felix in this interview 😮

[@chaselorenz6767]

Dr. K is an advocate for mindfulness in a video of his that I think is really helping me. There’s just a concern I have. In times when I’ve been consistent with mindfulness meditation, I’ve been way less anxious and a better communicator and worker, but I felt as though it suppressed my ego in a way. The problem with this is that I think I need to integrate my ego more to become more assertive and driven. Does anyone else relate to this?

[@franjkav]

Why do you think you need to be more driven?

[@patricklapinski1526]

I think the judgment youre unintentionally making towards yourself is your ego trying to retain some of you control. Listen to that ego, give it its space and respect it. However you dont need to act on it. Acknowledge its a part of your experience but you're the one with the power to act im a way that is true to your values. Hope this helps somehow lmao

[@rayanmozamel1458]

i watched the video bcuz of the word chaos but i never expected to relate that much i feel like felix in this vid is just me and d. k was talking to me i haaaad alot of realizations and its sooooo eye opening specially the control talk omg this was sooooo helpfull

[@kylespevak6781]

Never heard of this guy and whatever drama he was a part of but I like the way that he describes everything through pretty vivid imagery

[@richardsmith3917]

This could be the results of having para-social relationships on the content providers side. By using your audience as a diary /sound board they can start directing the content creator in a direction that ultimately doesn't feel like it's themselves but a character of themselves which they get more disassociate with as they grow and change.

[@izio1111]

You're amazing Dr K! Keep it up! ❤

[@cimaaaaaaa]

pls do a checkup on him

[@Kelly-wc2si]

Did anyone else watch him describe the self-sabotage thing and feeling broken -- and think of Bojack? The show hits on these points SO well, would highly recommend watching

[@AnaOhKay]

the older talk with xqc was always among my favourite interviews from healthy gamer, excited to catch up on this one!

[@randymartin9040]

Absolutely fantastic session, very intelligent questions. What you essentially prescribed to XQC at the end is the basis for existentialism lol.

[@migi7787]

I navigated from a tiktok excerpt here, but I left aside everything I was doing so I can watch the discussion, amazing DrK, you're my favorite person on UTube, I loved the questions you asked, how you were able to dig the profile while maintaining his privacy, refined and subtle pushing to arrive to self discovery, I am your number 1 Fan, please don't change! 🌞👍🤗

[@CrossaIicious]

I watched this live! This was a fantastic conversation

[@IllustriousBronson]

Little did I know going into this that I would realize that Felix and I are very similar, especially in the controlling aspect of our lives. God damn.

[@DarkManBeatzUrFace]

Feel for xqc he knows he has some addictions and bad habits I remember seeing how messy his room was full of junk food and how he has night terrors that wake him up cause he doesn't sleep cause he streams 24 hours

[@Chizuru94]

1:26:32 Kinda true, but in my case, it's the ADHD putting fire to everything I built eventually. That's the issue :( I hope I can get meds in the future and get some fires to not even break out or deal better with them, at least. 1:27:17 - I felt and was powerless almost all my life, though. ADHD can really, really mess it all up.

[@Mushroom321-]

Ive had that feeling too. A.d.d lies !! 😾😬

[@Mushroom321-]

Thank you for "putting the time stamp " . !! 🎉🎉🎉

[@ollifant0168]

This was your best talk.

[@izio1111]

Hope they had a second talk off stream so X could be more specific on what's going on instead of having to be vague due to court legalities and the fact that they are on stream. That way things could be more clear between Dr. K and X but anyways, the interview went really well and Felix even said it helped him a lot which I as a viewer saw as well. Dr. K and Healthy Gamer are amazing at what they do. Keep it up Dr. K!

[@macrayla]

this resonated so hard

[@CookieSlime-tf8gq]

[@regulusthestar]

god i love the way felix has gotten so much articulate from the last session

[@Windprinceinfiresman]

This was like watching myself get on my own video therapy call. Very uncanny almost but still so vulnerable ❤ thanks for sharing.

[@CornFedWhiteBoy27]

Being a therapist gotta be hard. You can only help one person at a time. If you are really trying each human story gotta take alot out of you. Let's say you help 8 people everyday of the year for 30 years you only saved 87,600 people. Wild why we need more people like this is an understatement.

[@temptaytion]

Omg I'm so excited to watch this!! Love seeing X's progression over the years. ❤❤ Proud that you're Canadian, xQc.

[@kalixmaxwell4742]

i wish i had dr.k's power of correcting self deprecation or downplaying immediately, its the only time he interrupts

[@nakiwinkydim]

17:45 i read something about that. The fear of not knowing what you don't even know.

[@lanwish]

1:00:40 - about breaking things, i have the same thing. I was 32 when i found out i have dyspraxia.

[@PetStuBa]

starting from 1:17:50 and a little further was really very hard to hear I'm that typical spiritual guy who wants everbody to be happy that's not happiness what we're hearing here, that's the pain of somebody who's basically feeling lonely loneliness is something that I HATE so much for people to experience ... because loneliness means DARKNESS life should be light, fun and loving the heart chakra is in pain here ... I pray for Felix and for all other people who have to go through this I'm 99% sure that dr K was worried a LOT about some of the things Felix said, but he's professional and respectful and he was good at hiding it but every professional knows Felix said some very troubling things THE most dangerous thing is when a person is drifting away more and more from his or her own personality ... very dangerous !! that's happening here to Felix

[@sashalee5498]

Thank you so much for sharing! This was really helpful to listen to 💛

[@iJerrrrrry]

Dr K. said about saying something vaguely and not directly exactly how you feel really resonated with me and what I am currently going through now. Looking for the sprinkles of gold dust for my own life. Thanks Dr K. On another note, gosh damn XQC has it pretty hard. I feel for him, some similar traits and experiences though not as severe.

[@Halfmoonia]

I just really hope that we would come to the point when man would feel safe speaking of things that hurt them. It is powerful to do it, it is not making you weak its making you strong.

[@DrCornTato]

I want more of this.

[@seanocd]

I'm yet another person who finds it hard to see why people enjoy watching xqc. I don't think he's an unlikable guy, but so much of his public behaviour is instinctually repulsive to me. But I understand that many other people enjoy it. I am vaguely familiar withsome of his controversies, and none of it makes me feel more positive about him. However, prior to watching this, I did recognise a pain and discomfort in him that many seem to completely miss in their efforts to demonise him. This was an excellent discussion. By far the most human I've ever seen him behave, and enlightening as to why he performs the way he does. In many ways he has been both incredibly lucky and hardworking. He has also, in some ways, been quite unlucky. I would seem to me that he has trouble identifying the position that luck, both good and bad, has played in his career and life, and that the lack of recognition can lead him down some destructive paths of understanding himself. Great self-conscious that is just missing tiny, but key details. I hope he can find ways to deal with his pain and change the way he interacts with the world. For his sake. At the core I see a wounded manchild who is unsure of how to heal and mature, while living in a self imposed exile from the environments that would be conducive to that healing. I can relate to that more than I would care to think. Good on xqc and Dr K for a beautiful and thought provoking discussion.

[@natalieanderson_]

I initially wasn’t going to watch this because I absolutely despise XQC but this interview really developed a sense of compassion for him in me, it was a good feeling.

[@bxbydrxgxn]

me too i also watched aiden's but x's was so refreshing

[@RB-zw6ym]

Yeah maybe do some introspection about why you develop hatred for a man who you've only seen small snippets of!? I think that reflects more badly on you than him lol

[@MarronFrui]

Its been the first time in a year or more i'm really glad to listen to xqc and empathize with him

[@p4nd0r43z]

Did he lose a parent or a partner recently? It's clearly crushing his soul. I'm so glad Dr. K noticed this in person and decided to bring him on. I think he truly needed someone to talk to. Therapy is not something anyone should be ashamed of needing. If you don't it's more concerning.

[@pboe0]

Partner. from what i understand, they were in a "common law" marriage. He recently signed a 100 million dollar streaming deal with a website. He was having health problems, scary enough to talk with his parents about a will. This partner over the course of time was more worried about if they were in the will than xQc's health and happiness. so, xQc is fighting in court with them right now. there so much more drama that piles on as well as this. it is a lot for him to carry around

[@p4nd0r43z]

Thank you for the context. That really illuminates this conversation. I truly hope he gets the medical help he needs as well as the emotional support he needs.@@pboe0
