Abuse and hardship has a way of making kids grow up to fast

[@BasedRanger]

​​​@@Stayjolly33 The sad part of this is that a lot of people with severe trauma go through a period of regression later on. There's a book by the name of, _"The Body Keeps the Score;"_ I would highly recommend that anyone with a background of extensive and severe trauma reads that book so as to hopefully avoid or minimize the odds of further suffering.

wow. it makes so much sense now how brett is so mature for her age. she's been through more than many adults. i feel for her brother. i work with people with severe and persistent mental illnesses (usually schizophrenia spectrum) and these are really severely traumatized people. i can't imagine having your twin die in front of you at 17. that's horrific.

For those people saying Brett sounds emotionless when talking about the situation: that’s a coping mechanism. You suppress all your emotions to the greatest extent possible because they’re just too painful to deal with, and try to look at the situation objectively instead.

[@ldandco]

Yep... many people think they may be psychopaths. To the contrary, the pain has been so intense and for so long, that the ones that can talk about the issues expressing no emotion, are probably the ones that suffered the most.

Because she's massively AstroTurfed

[@djlovesyou8302]

She's got a big following because she's a young, attractive and articulate woman in the right wing grift scene. It's a scene dominated by people who are either older, male or incredibly stupid. She gives people validation because she makes their (often quite unpleasant) views feel more justified because someone who doesn't 'look like them' has the same views.

Very interesting life. I went through a lot of family turmoil and a death of a brother too as a teenager. I can definitely say that it matured me having to deal with my own side of problems as well as seeing family members hurt. It puts things in perspective because you start to see other everyday issues as insignificant, just things that you deal with and move on, because you've been through a lot worse and managed to pull through.

[@louissivo9660]

I lean liberal, but have been watching more of her videos and honestly (like many) really impressed with her at her young age. So hearing from her about her "childhood" it's very telling what pushed her accelerated maturity. Just adds to my admiration of her and really owning her life. I can tell she loves her family, but yes, when they play you as a pawn or try and mess with her life goals (and she was making it work as she had a plan) she was right to step away and fight it. Glad her mom supported her.

I feel like our American culture really doesn't have a healthy practice or period of time for grieving over the death of a loved one. We try to move on quickly while other cultures have community mourning for many days or weeks. It helps process and in a natural way and in community rather than isolation. We don't process those deep turbulent emotions in the moment in a natural way or in community, and that can lead to the emotions not dealt with and substance abuse, anxiety, depression, isolation and loneliness eating away at us over the long-term.- So very sorry for the loss of your brother.

oh god, to see your twin brother die in front of you and not being able to do anything? yeah, you can't get over that. twins are much more connected than normal siblings, they share the same egg cell ffs! im honestly shocked that the surviving twin didn't, ya know, go be with his brother after all of that. (its another reason many twins are, ill say incestuous. many many many times ive seen twins get sexual with each other and idk why it happens exactly but it prob has to do with them sharing cells like i said before. its almost like super masturbation in a way but also a weird narcissistic thing too. sorry that this is kinda off topic but the subject of twins made me remember it) dont know much about brett, all i know is i come across her videos and im like "brett? is this a boy or girl? why does she look like ben shapiro if he went trans? whats going on here?" and after seeing this video i think i understand who she is a little better. being exposed to things like that at an early age can really mature a person. either that or destroy them, it depends on the person and situation and all that. when it comes to schizophrenia though you do need medications otherwise you're miserable. my grandma was diagnosed with it and before she was she'd be acting weird, saying she saw black shadow people everywhere but once she was on the meds it stopped but the docs did try to put her on more BS and my mom was NOT having it. my mom didn't want her mom to be a bed ridden zombie not able to do anything. luckily it didn't happen, i mean yeah she did lay in bed more after the meds but she wasn't going insane all the time thinking people were after her. i know my mom has always told me she doesn't wanna be a vegetable and if shes in that state to unplug her. im an only child too so if that time comes, its gunna be so much harder because i wont really have others to console about it. a husband sure but its not the same as other family that knew my mom, ya know? her brother didn't hit rock bottom at that point yet with drugs which is why he didn't want help yet. usually once you hit that bottom, thats when you wanna start getting clean. you get tired of using drugs and the outcomes of it after awhile. if you're lucky i mean. most times people die before reaching that low point because thats how drugs work. real drugs anyways. you always want that next big high so you do more drugs in hopes it works and you end up ODing instead and dying. i smoke weed for a lot of issues but also "for fun" and im addicted to it but i know im addicted to it and after about 3 years of constant smoking, im now starting to not really wanna smoke weed anymore. my addiction to it is slowing down and hopefully i can stop all together. one reason i smoke is to calm myself down. i get stressed SUPER EASILY but weed keeps me calm which is soo nice, you have no idea how nice it is to not be angry at stupid things lol. but thats another reason i got addicted, the nice feeling of not feeling anger and weed isn't deadly so the only harm im really doing to myself is like, smoke inhalation. i know back in the day my mom had jobs at 14 and we live in upstate NY. i really do think at 14 there should be part time jobs for teens to start learning how to be an individual. again, back in the day, when there used to be gas station attendants? THOSE were the 14 and 15 year old boys who did those jobs. they went and cleaned your glasses and filled your car for you but as we all know those jobs dont exist anymore because who wants to pay anyone money for a job the driver of the car can do themselves?

@@orphanedhanyou At least there's a system they need to follow at schools. If you luck out and get a bad teacher at home or parents who don't wanna teach certain subjects like evolution. You get fucked.

brett cantik ! matur suksma

[@rosemeteor54]

DANG I'm sixteen and have never made more than 10.50 an hour. I might go try to get a job at trader joes. My mom would LOVE IT if I worked there

[@D_Cali_Life]

What state are you in ? Minimum wage has been $16 and hour for the last 3-5 years in California. I saw girls were laid $2.50 and Hour in Texas.

[@rosemeteor54]

@@D_Cali_Life I'm in Alabama and I was talking to my uncle about it today and found out that Alabama actually doesn't have a state minimum wage law, so the minimum wage here is $7.25, the federal minimum wage. I did wind up quitting that job and am now making $14 bucks an hour, and I don't get an employee discount or anything but they do give us random $100 gift cards which is awesome

[@triggerwarning3010]

Sounds like Brett cared more about her carrier then her family

[@marwar819]

Giving out someone's personal medical history is a serious violation of their right to privacy.

[@rn2cro03]

What a story...

[@matthewbennett9585]

Brett is the most intelligent, beautiful girl i have ever seen at her age....her husband is a very lucky man

[@kevinklein9565]

I 100% disagree with her on the “anti-depressants/etc”. I know lots of people and heard from lots of people who eat extremely healthy and exercise extensively, and it has not solved their problems.

[@RianeBane]

I don't think she was implying that lifestyle changes *alone* can fix mental illness *for everybody.* In context it seemed like she was pointing out there were other options that her brother could/should have been directed to since he was refusing medication.

[@Chuby_ubesie]

How did America societies turn like this? I'm sure it wasn't like this in the 50s and 60s, seriously the lack of religion destroys a society.

[@thomaswalmsley8959]

Homelessness (near enough), neglectful or abusive households, sever mental illnesses? Nah we invented them in the 90s. This shit has always existed, does exist and will exist forever till humans disappear.

[@Sam_T2000]

everything about this is really sad.

[@darrenheapy1265]

Sometimes its safer and easier for kids to just leave and do it on their own.

[@007carson]

Too many stupid comments

[@TheMasaaz]

- Brett: My brother is diagnosed schizophrenic - Graham: Yikes ROLFMAO!

[@scarboroughjames7]

I wonder if Brett's brother that became a drug addict is still alive?

[@pauldonovan9527]

Brett, you are a breath of fresh air. I wish you lived in New Hampshire so my 25 yo son could meet you. Our family has been praying for someone like you. He's struggling with his vocation , either priesthood or marriage. You could definitely make up his mind. So much wisdom in a young beautiful woman.

[@zr3755]

Am I the only person who lost respect for Brett from this clip? Yes, I feel bad she lost her brother, but she literally got manipulated by her mother into cutting her father out of her life. That's not maturity

[@isaaccutlip5815]

Shes cold

[@Pattmore]

No she’s a survivor.

[@eliciagarcia3601]

How did she support herself at 15? What was her job?

[@eliciagarcia3601]

Oh never mind. I heard her say she had an acting job?

[@FirstLast-dm7hv]

Never heard of her.

[@scarboroughjames7]

This explains why in her comments section videos Brett Cooper sounds like a woman who has been on earth longer than she has been

[@abigailswick7493]

Side note... my iced coffee never lasts me an hour. 4, maybe 5 sips all in quick succession, and I'm immediately regretting my life choices. This is why I order mine extra hot.

[@LenaBelleMusic]

I hope Brett had permission from her brother to tell this story. That’s really his private business. She’s sharing really personal details that most people would not want shared.

[@dafxrxfox4466]

Is that Ben Shapiro in a wig

[@coltenbeachel645]

She’s been run through since 15 lmao.

[@gabrielledarlington7110]

Bro what? How u know?

[@Juliobrem]

I’ve always said this. There are two ways you choose when your life falls apart. 1. Be responsible for yourself , stop blaming everything and star working for your future (conservative) 2. Blame everyone, try to take down everything you believe is wrong . (Liberal)
