We need dr.k to be in trash taste podcast. That’d be so interesting to watch

1:36:20 - When you choose an innocent looking dialog option in a game and trigger the bad ending.

So if Connor solves his emotions through actions imagine how grateful he must feel for mouse if he feels like he has to do these big charities

"paying off the debt of being a kid" hit so hard

never seen Connor in such a ''raw'' way. I really appreciate his braveness to be open and vulnerable with dr. k - great episode!

1:36:20 love it when Dr. k is just perplexed, and his face shows it. "Kind???"

Dr K: We're gonna practice, you can't say anything nice (about me). Gives compliments. Connor immediately: I appreciate that. Thank you.

I really started crying when he asked him if he was a good son. That shit hit home because I know I haven’t been one since as long as I can remember.

1:03:56 I feel like I felt Connor holding his urge to say the, "there are two wolves inside me" meme lmao or am I just projecting?

Doctor K:"Do you have title in your job?" Connor: "Monkee" 🤣

the ultimate crossover

Connor is such a nice guy. I'm glad to see him so open with this.

Connor will become unstoppable when he accesses all of his emotions conscious of (and accepting of) why he feels them and leverages his ability to always want more from himself by his own informed choice.

it is really beautiful to see Connor open up and allow himself to be vulnerable. I really enjoyed watching this. I finished Garnt and Mouse's interviews as well and I am just gonna blast through all the videos on this channel because I find it all so fascinating. My therapist has helped me realize a lot of things as well that are similar, and I love seeing people's perspectives open up in similar ways

connor seems like such a sweet man im happy this community has his positive presence

I've never been to therapy but if it is this effective then I'm all in. All it takes is to be introspective and accept suggestions. I can do that.

Seeing Connor have one or two similar issues I have, really helps me feel like its not just me, its nice to know honestly ^^

WOW Garnt and now Connor. We getting blessed

Connor is the most unaware aware person I've ever seen

This was one of the most useful session for me. Being unaware of my own emotions really holds me back a lot of times

"Everybody is a little bit scuffed in some way " That is words to live by

Thanks for this vod. Keep up the good work!

Love how you know exactly when the core theme is uncovered when near the end, the "any new questions we haven't covered" and Connor mentions that he's curious why his anger issues disappeared despite it being readily apparent in their formative years. Only for the metaphorical nerve to be struck when it's recontextualized as it being transformed from external shows of anger into internal judgement and shame for not being good enough. Going from angry at external stimuli to becoming angry at yourself. The perceived imbalances in social interactions where the gratitude you feel the more you must reciprocate it to clear the debt, a debt which makes you angry for being inadequate. The chronic thought to improve since otherwise you're stagnating or even reverting to a worst state. All of it viewed from the new perspective that the anger isn't gone it's just been turned inward after the realization that it was an ugly emotion to be ashamed of. The target of anger changing was what birthed the need to improve and/or optimize everything from social interactions to behavior and even to quality of work. Connor was going through the motions, as if answering a series of surveys each one giving a general theme for a plan of actions. The general theme being to sit and stew with your emotions, identify where you can, and acknowledging what you will do next before you do so. Just recognizing that you feel an emotion before you proceed and not to outright ignore them. Then Connor offhand mentions his unusual lack of anger, and it being rephrased as the source of his shame and guilt since he's angry at himself for not meeting expectations he himself perceives to exist. Tldr, Connor's anger being the source of the majority of his issues being revealed near the end was great, and so is the metaphorical light bulb going off when both of them connect the dots!

connor is literally an MC in a every story chad

Basically Connor only allows his good nature to express himself to avoid the consequences of not having solid boundaries. He’s captain America, always reliable, for the sake of never establishing his own will on life. Unlike the character of Iron man (tony stark) who only allows his bad nature (bad man side) to express to enforce boundaries but struggles to open his heart to those who care about him. Basically, Connor is a good guy who deeply no longer just wants to be a good guy, but also establish his boundaries, his frame for people to respect. He wants boundaries that are respected by others.

just now seeing this due to a clipping channel, but I resonate so much with connor when it comes to how he feels about caring how people he cares about viewing him, how he should hang out with his friends and make more friends but it's also exhausting. It's a huge struggle.

dude i appreciate the reupload. twitch is trash on my internet and I've been wanting to rewatch the stream

God, I relate so much to Connor and always feel incompetent when I feel like i'm not giving a good enough answer. I'm getting help now but it always feels good to see someone I watch suffer with something similar

What I found funniest about this is, I’m autistic and female, and I think i have a very similar experience with suppressing emotion ….because often as a teenager when I had an outburst, it was seen as an overreaction to a very mundane thing so ….I thought that getting angry or distressed over something meant that I was being childish or immature, ….but it was being overwhelmed because I had be suppressing or not noticed the emotions before they got real bad, and if I’d excepted them earlier, and process them, I wouldn’t of had a freak out. So while I perceive that it as just immaturity, which it was, it was an in maturity of NOT being in touch with my emotional state, rather than being immature, because I threw a tantrum. That was just how it ended because I’ve been suppressing my emotions. Like putting the lid on a boiling pot. Eventually it’s gonna spill over if you don’t have something to break the surface tension continuously.

Loved this episode. Thank you both!! 🙌🏻❤️

This was super helpful, the indebted vs gratitude and the blaming ourselves and feeling guilty part is so useful to identify.

Connor thank you for sharing, I don’t know about Joey but definitely similar to how Garnt feel about anger and being self critical in order to improve. Love them and wish they can stay true to themselves

this was pretty cool to see. maybe the first of these interviews I've seen (I've seen a few but not that many tbh) that resonated with me personally.

i felt this episode to my core, i appreciate Connor a bit more now, he's a great person

Thanks for posting this so fast, just finished watching the whole thing and realized it was an unofficial channel.

This is the enlightment timeline! Gotta love it!

I love watching stuff like this because I usually feel residual emotions that I can relate to or I can work myself along the trail of conversation and get myself thinking!

Timestamp: 01:22:33 Solution: 1) articulate emotion 2) process, integrate emotion, without action. Emotion is information. No fixing.

33yo and just starting therapy, Is like finding a guide for that 90s game you never could pass level 1, but for my life.

I've never seen a Dr. K video before but now I'm kinda hooked. This was super interesting to watch.

I already am a huge fan of both of them. It was really beautiful to see Connor very raw and vulnerable because I'm so used of his consistent hilariousness. Also Dr. K as always shows you things from a different perspective that you might not have been able to see before. I can't wait to watch Gigguk, Mouse, and Asmongolds. These streams also help you even potentially learn something about yourself. I really dig these videos from Dr K and the people he brings on.

5:49 - Dr K ga kita! 9:34 - Monkey appears!

He feels so guilty on vulnerability by being judged by others for crying, even if he thinks is completetly natural is insane.

Thanks for the vods

The doctor will now examine a monke

Thanks for posting these! Love it!!

Thanks for posting this 🙂

25:31 I get this soo much. I don’t have a lot of friends and I unconsciously only give people who tick all the boxes on my unconscious “standards” list a chance. It’s not that I look down on others it’s just if someone ticks enough boxes I can be 90 per cent sure we’ll get along and can talk about whatever

1:10:53 i’m most likely projecting but this plus connor always feeling like he needs to pay people back and be a positive influence etc KINDA feels like he doesn’t have a lot of internal self-worth and there’s a need for him to constantly be producing value for other people instead of recognizing his own innate value as a human being

Great chemistry

I have now seen every crossover I could not have predicted

I wish I can have a therapist that talks in memes too

This shit really just popped into my reccs when I was feeling bad about not wanting to go hang out with my friend.

Thats interesting with the whole song and lyrics bit. All this time, all the people around me always listen to lyrics and recognize lyrics while i really listen and recognize the instruments, melody, etc.. nice to see others that hear the same

Timestamp: 55:58 The insight into how guilt and indebtedness in social relationships are strings pulling on behavioral control.

Gonna love their podcast after Joye visits Doctor K

Now this will be great

I always thought Connor was a prime candidate for ending up in an abusive relationship. He'd give wayyy to much weight to someone else's out of control emotions and could be made to feel guilty for the other person's problems and demands, while making himself invisible emotionally and fully focused on "fixing things".

I relate so much to Connor’s introverted side. I’ve never resonated so much with people

I feel like this is very private and we dont have any right to witness this. Gratefull for connor willing to share this out

I love this so much.

Boy I was praying for this after garnt's episode

"Kind???" ".... Kind???" 🤣 I laughed at that so hard.

waiting for the Joey episode next 😁 And one with aki and sydney

Connor is such a wholesome dude 👍

Literally got teary eyed while watching this episode what the fuck Connor lol

Im glad im not the only one i understand what conner is talking about with remebering lyrics. When im listening to music i understand whats being said and kinda the meaning but i cant remeber the lyrics for the life of me. The only time i can is when im literally writing down the lyrics and resaying them. But yes i can just go of singing my fovoeite songs as i forget the words and what not. So damn relatable lol.

Btw whole binary aspect was amazing to hear. I am a impulsive person and also feel things very strongly but I’m also logical. However when faced with complicated emotional events I tend to ping pong between two states, my heart and my head and make a impulsive decision. But now I understand to try too combine the two and make a choice like that.

I feel like Death Parade is an easy recommendation to Dr K. I think he would have a HELL of an amazing series on his hands if he started to do psychological breakdowns on shows. Or even had someone on that maybe is, intentionally chosen to with they idea of them being, a little less emotionally articulate to converse about it. somewhat in the same vein as the Cinema Therapy youtube channel.

uff this whole interview hit hard ngl

Connor operates on its nice to be nice. Which is something I feel.

love it when you do the foreign accent XD

Good talk.

Now I want to see one with Joey too

Why has this not been uploaded to the official KZfaq channel?

I feel bad about hanging out with friends just like Connor. I want to hangout, I would love to hangout even! But sometimes it just feels like so much and I don't have the spoons to make sure I'm meeting the expectations they have for me (that I've set for myself). I've been getting better slowly but surely

Why do I feel like Dr K has never spoken to a British person before, lol? (Connor talking about feeling guilty, not wanting to let people down, and always being polite no matter the situation. Dr K be like, 'hmm... that's so weird'.)

Its so funny when they started talking about anime recommendations haha

I hope @CDawgVA talks more to this chap off camera

9:55 is why you came here for

As to the anime recommendation question you asked him, I wonder if you would be into some retro anime, or at least what a lot of people call retro.

27:05 Dr K's "tell me about it..." is so sassy hahahah

He just like me fr 🥶🥶🥶

Why are you apologising? I'm British

Connor fell in love with therapy

Oh my this actually happened first grant now conner 😮😮 is Joey next? 😂😂

Yeah I never listen to lyrics, I know like the first line of twinkle twinkle little star. When I hear a melody, I cant focus on the lyrics, somehow the instrumental parts take over my focus, everytime. I can just assume some words that they are singing but then it turns out they never sang things like that 😂 I’ve got ADD part of adhd 🤔

Why is this not on HelathyGamer’s channel?

He went along with raiding a Vtuber at the end...

Wow at the end Dr K is talking about some scary stuff, how do I prevent it from happening to me?

The "aversion to laziness" hit way too close home

💜💜💜

I have the same problem for the song lyrics. I cant hear the words properly, like my brain focuses on the actual song not the lyrics.

I seriously want to see Dr K on Trash Taste

This man copy pasted ma brain

Wtf ..idk how i ended up here....but im here for my boy connor

Dayum, Connor has a lot of jumbled up things inside. He definitely could use more sessions.

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeeaaaaaahhhh......

Oh, shit, he raided Henya! That's cool.

1:14:25 oh my god why are all of these issues so relatable 😅
