It took getting blocked from what I thought was a close friend and a content creator I really liked to actually get a professional therapist. I wanted to talk to him personally about some concerns and he did everything he could to avoid it. Resentment build up from there for a couple months and my snappiness came out during the times we were in a shared space. I could tell he doesn’t want to be told anything negative or constructive that would’ve made him look possibly bad. His fanbase are just as bad as he is, gaslighting and justifying everything he says and does.

I’ve been banned from his socials and community for calling it out. The few people that used to talk to me stopped talking to me in due time and basically left me to fend for myself and my mental issues. That opened my eyes to what that was. I feel bad for the parasocial newcomers who’ll experience the same issues.
