 Man, why is the beauty community starting drama on World Mental Health Day? Everybody, this is Chris from the Rewired Soul where we talk about the problem, but focus on the solution. And if you're new to my channel, my channel is all about trying to help you with your mental health. So what I like to do is pull things going on in the community or pop culture and try to teach you how to improve your mental and emotional well-being. So if you're into that kind of stuff, make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell because I make a ton of videos and you're sitting here like, Chris, why are you talking about stuff in the beauty community and why do you know so much about it? Well, I actually got plunged into the beauty community by my lovely girlfriend and her best friend Shelby and I know a lot of stuff about the beauty community now, so yeah, that's what's going on. But anyways, this is an important topic because when I was out of town, October 10th was World Mental Health Day and yeah, like I got a tweet from one of my loyal subscribers about some stuff going on and I was out of town like, well, what's going on? And yeah, Manny MUA released his first video and I'm going to talk about it. I'm also going to talk about Jeffree Star and some other situations going on with the beauty community and World Mental Health Day. So anyways, let me tell you about the tweet that I got from at T Serial. Manny MUA is uploading a documentary series on mental health but it is about his mental health. His video editor in the section makes it clear this was purposely posted on Mental Health Day. I feel like someone with PTSD from a sexual assault that is transparently uncaring. So T Serial, thank you for shooting me this tweet and letting me know what's going on. So yeah, I want to talk about this. So I don't know, like first I'll say this. Like I actually recorded this entire video already and I uploaded it to Zach and the audio didn't work. So I actually had this done on World Mental Health Day but yeah, I'm just going back and trying to get that emotional fuel that I had. But yeah, like first and foremost, I'll say this, like I am going to have some videos in the future about like his mental health, like becoming like a trendy thing or people like faking it to try to get sympathy or empathy or people using it as a way to push better help because there's all that stuff going on kind of still. So I am going to make some videos about that. Like I don't want to say exactly what Manny's mental health state is like but I will talk about this. So this video is actually going in a playlist that I have called How to Apologize. All right. I've made a playlist about how to apologize because people have no idea how to apologize and like I swear to you, I swear to you. Once I started watching this Manny MUA, like this first episode of his little like mini documentary about where he's been, like I just wanted to turn it off. I was like five or six minutes in and I just wanted to turn this video off. This was just the worst and if Manny has like some kind of PR team or PR agent, like he needs to fire them like yesterday, like, oh my God. Okay. So let me tell you this. The first problem with this was he started out this video by talking about himself, what he's been going through, his mental health, his, you know, his self medicating, you know, going to the hospital and everything like that. I went to the emergency room on I think the 15 because I had a full blown mental breakdown and anxiety attack. Sadly. I remember when he texted me. When you're in the hospital, like throwing up and like crying and, you know, your body shaking, like as if you're seizing, you like get into this like zone where you're like, I can't ever go through this again. Like I don't want to minimize that, like as somebody who, you know, has had mental health issues, I've worked, you know, in the treatment industry for, you know, a few years, like, I'm not trying to minimize that, but like the best way I can, like kind of put this into, you know, a way that more people understand, like, I am a recovering drug addict and alcoholic. I've been clean for six years. Now, part of this process, you know, of me getting clean, staying sober is like making amends to people and like apologizing and, you know, being truly sorry for what I've done. But like, can you imagine, right? Like I used to lie, cheat and steal from my family and friends, right? Could you imagine these people who I have hurt, the people in my life who I have hurt? And if the first words came out of my mouth was like, well, you know, I have an alcoholic mom and I had a rough childhood and I had a lot of anxiety and depression and that's when I started to self-medicate and that's what caused my addiction. And then I go on into the apology, like, that is awful, like, no, like, many should have come right out of the gate and just addressed, like, the biggest concerns people have, right? About what's going on with him and Jeffrey, him being a social climber, all those things. And then he should have started talking about his mental health, okay? So, like, the way that he did that was just absolutely awful. Like, I need to go check out John Cucky and see if, like, Manny's losing subscribers or maybe I'll go check on Social Blade. But, like, I don't know, like, I want to hear from all of you, like, were you as, I don't know, upset about the way he did this as I was? Like, when I watch this, ugh, and I'm going to talk about Jeffree Star in a minute too because I'm not too happy with him either. So, in the last video I made about Manny MUA and him doing, like, a trailer for this little documentary series he's doing about his mental health, like, I talked about mental health breaks and how, if you're going to take a mental health break, you have to do something, you have to take action, right? But, like, it doesn't seem like Manny changed, like, the only thing that we saw he did was, A, spend time with family and, B, read self-help books. Like, what? What, like, you guys, this is why therapy is so important because you need an outside point of view, especially because what I'm about to talk about is how Manny has a very, very enabling family, all right? Like, if you want to know what a family of enablers looks like, look at Manny's parents, okay? Now, before I talk about the parents, I want to say this, like, Manny also screwed up by having his own editor do this. Like, you can tell by the way that the editor asked questions of Manny as well as his parents that they are clearly biased towards Manny, right? Like, they're in favor of Manny, like, oh, yeah, well, it must have been really hard for you, right? And then why do you think people are painting it that, like, you're the one always benefiting, that you're the one who's, like, going from friend to friend and collab to collab when, in reality, everyone is grown together at the same time? I never really understood that. So, like, I don't know, half of it was the editor's fault for the way he was asking these questions, like, that was awful. But throughout this entire thing, you see how his family was enabling him. You see what his dad's saying. You see what his mom is saying. Like, they're protecting him. Easier to jump on the bandwagon and to go with it instead of sticking up and saying, that's not true. We're talking about what's the right, what is the truth. It's easier to just jump on the bandwagon and agree with other people than to actually stand up for something that's not the norm. Now, hey, don't get me wrong. Like, it's important for parents to, you know, protect their kids. But, like, they have very few critiques of Manny. Like, it's almost in the same way that Manny's seeing it, right? Like, hey, I might have screwed up a little, but you screwed up more. You know what I mean? And that's even how his mom and dad said it. Like, I forgot who I was watching. It might have been Peter Mann. And they, and the mom, Peter Mann said, he talked about how the mom, like, said that, you know, Manny, you know, kind of screwed up the relationship with Jeffrey. You know, that might have been the case. But, like, the way that I, like, listened to that sentence and, like, the way she was talking about it, it seemed like, oh, you know, Manny just goofed a little, you know, but it wasn't really his fault. Man, he's just like that, you know? And, like, that's just the way his family is. And they're not making him stay accountable for what's going on. Like, and again, that's why you need to get outside points of view. Like, you can't do that. Now, whether or not, you know, his family is just being on his side because he's, like, supporting them, not even really supporting them. But he, you know, has them running his company and all of that. Like, I don't know. But going back to Manny's mental health issues and his self-medicating, like, I've talked about this already. Like, this is some real stuff. And whether or not, you know, this was a PR thing just for World Mental Health Day, I don't know. But, like, I've said this a million times. Like, I said this, like, in a Bobby Burns video, I think. And I think I said this in a Trisha Paytas video. Like, there is no reason why these millionaires should not be, like, seeing a therapist once a week. Like, I just, I don't, like, I get it. Like, I get it because some of you have asked me to make videos about, you know, being afraid to go to therapy or how to find the right therapist. So I kind of get it. But when you're in this spotlight, like, and especially with all the pressure that they have and all of that, like, you've got to take care of your mental health. And it is not going to come through self-help books, all right? So that's kind of my take on this. And again, like, the reason I make these videos is to help you kind of see, like, can you relate to this? Like, do you have an enabling family? Is your family, like, co-signing your BS and not holding you accountable? Like, are you, are you taking action during a mental health break? Do you know how to apologize? Because, like, if you look at what Manny's doing, he does not know how to apologize. But that's what I have to say about Manny so far. And I don't, man. I don't even know if I want to watch the rest of his videos because this one was just so poorly done. But now I'm going to talk about Jeffrey. Jeffrey, Jeffrey, Jeffrey. Be better, okay? Be better. Like, I don't know. Like, you know, I try to pull things from the, you know, the YouTube community and try to teach you guys about the mental health. But, like, the more I'm seeing, like, with the beauty community, especially just between World Mental Health Day and today, the stuff that's going on, like, it just bums me out. Like, I hate to say it, but a lot of them are acting like children, okay? And I don't know, if you guys want me to make other videos, like, on some of these topics, let me know in the comments. But, like, Manny and Jeffrey, bunch of children. All right, Gabriel, child. The thing going on with Tati Westbrook and that other person who made the video about her, that's childish. I forgot who else. Oh, oh, oh, James Charles and his whole Netflix. Like, oh, the beauty community just needs to grow up. But anyways, getting back to this, if you're wondering, like, why I'm talking about Jeffrey Sark, so part of Manny's video was that he, like, apologized to Karina Kaboom. And Jeffrey commented on it and he says, he uploaded on World Mental Health Day because his manager told him to. His first two apology videos flopped, so they're trying to, trying to shame Dawson, wow. It's effing pathetic and so calculated it makes me sick. You want the truth? Absorb it? I think that's what it says, my thing got cut off. Then it says, can the real sociopath in the beauty community please stand up? Like, Jeffrey, like, did you need to say that? Did you need to put those jobs in? Did you need to do that? Like, I don't know, it's just there's so much passive-aggressive and just pettiness. Like, Jeffrey was at the top of his game when all this stuff was going down and Jeffrey was just staying quiet. Like, that's when Jeffrey was just being the adult in the situation. But like, this right now, like, hey, and I get it too. I try to teach you guys from my own experience. But like, I used to have this insane need, right? To just say whatever was on my mind. I had to let you know how I felt all the time. And some people think this is like a good quality, right? Like, I don't know. It's really interesting to me how, like, some people, like, in our society, things like, oh, I like that person because they speak their mind, right? That's not always a good thing because if you're speaking your mind and people think that you're a jerk, that's not great. So what I had to do before I opened my mouth, people taught me to ask myself three questions. Does it need to be said? Does it need to be said right now? And does it need to be said by me? Feel free to write that down. Like, if I pause before opening my mouth to attack, right? Or to just put out this information or this unsolicited advice, right? Does it need to be said? Does it need to be said right now? And does it need to be said by me? Like, those things, like, if you ask yourself that and you check in with your ego and you calm it down, most of the time, the answer's no, right? Like, most of the time, you don't need to do that, okay? Like, if Jeffrey would have stayed quiet, like, the community would have just done their thing, you know, and that's something that I've learned throughout the years. Like, it's something that I try to do. I comment and reply and stuff like that, but like, there's many times when I just don't and I watch you, my loyal subscribers, you reply for me because I have a loyal following and a lot of you know my true intentions and my morals and my values and things like that. But anyways, that's what I have to say about this situation and I hope you learn some things from it, like, quit being petty, quit being passive aggressive, like, grow up, be the adult, keep your mouth shut if you have to, like, so many things, but like, I don't know, I make these videos to try to teach you and I just really want you guys to actively watch how these relationships unfold and all this cattiness and stuff going on and you can say, wow, do I act like that? I might need to fix some stuff, all right? But I would love to know your thoughts and comments down below and like I said, if you want me to make videos on some of the other beauty guru issues going on, give you a break from the Shane Doss and stuff, let me know because I am all around the interwebs and if there's something that I can do to help you and that you can relate to it and get some context out of it, I'm all about that. All right, but that's all I got.
