Many people have stuff close to that to a way more personal level, a lot of what he said can be applied to so much situations

it's hard to get Twitch chat to take things seriously

Truuuu

@@raenastra True. Honestly, it is bit tilting sometimes when chat can recognize themselves from the things Dr.K talks about and relate to it, but go all spam- mode with "TRUE KEKW". I mean they kinda accept that what he said is true but it always makes me wonder that are they actually taking in what he is saying when their first reaction is to make fun and spam about it. Idk maybe I'm taking it too serious or overthinking but I genuinely wonder do they actually genuinely understand what he is saying and take the advice in when half of their attention is typing funny jokes and emotes in twitch chat. Then again, brushing it off with laughter is kinda natural reaction for us when something hits too much home for us because we don't want to feel emotions that make us uncomfortable. Too bad that with facing those emotions lies the pathway to actually doing something about the problem and potentially healing it. I understand what I just talked about is bit generalizing but this is just what I've been thinking about.

@@KanohiVahi I agree. He intentionally caters his content for the gaming community, which makes the environment much more casual. However, the environment is so casual that it's easy to take the quality of his content for granted. He's spent a significant amount of time studying and researching this stuff - we're lucky that he offers all of this for free. I wish the gaming community could stop memeing for a few minutes and take his information a bit more seriously. I get that professionalism is not expected from chat, but it could be much better.

We need people that takes stuff serious sometimes

Considering the ultimate question he's left with is why on Earth is this person leaving such bait, taking the bait is arguably essential to understanding their perspective. "Piss off" may be the most intuitive response, but it doesn't answer any of our curiosities about how they think or act. More to your point though, the troll is clearly basing the story on things that many of people in their modern existence actually struggle with in one form or another, and thus even taking the bait itself is useful without knowing it's bait, because it actually does apply to many people even if it doesn't apply to the one who created the thread.

true

Upvoted for satan

the moment where he sees right through the chat and knows what they think collectively they thought he was getting trolled but he turned it around on it's head lol this is why i love psyschologists

LOOOOT of WeirdChamp going on when chat tries to troll someone who is dedicating their life to help people... pretty yikes on the kiddie's part.

Even if it is bait it that probably broadly resonates with a few people in the chat

Twitch chat were never known to be the brightest.

Plus either way I’m sure people could be helped by it anyways

the chance of this happening is much higher than 0.001%.

Like a person rejecting true love for short term dopamine rush.

That's actually pshycology class 101 to not dismiss any thought of a patient.

@@squirrelhallowino29 Not all of us have taken psych 101 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

it is NOT FAKE A lot of "SIMPS" DO SUFFER THIS. they just do NOT recognise its BAD. its something that really doesnt give them real long lasting happiness.

I think it's also because he heard a lot of worse story by his patients.

Very low IQ chat

PepeLaugh TeaTime

The low IQ is implied since it's twitch chat lool.

@@tehtayziez twitch chat has no IQ lol

@@AlexanderMartinez-kd7cz this the POINT of twitch chat. It is its first principle of existence.

Kwame Mintah yeah. Its real and its kinda sad.

Goes both ways

Simp

Reminder that simp isn't anyone who looks at a pretty girl, it's someone who goes to great lengths for someone who'll never bat an eye at them/give them momentary attention.

WeirdChamp

osu

Off chance? I almost guarantee this resonates with a lot of people.

Even if it's bait there are easily real people that are like that so it's not wasted advice.

Just started watching your channel. Not sure if your wife is also a physician, but she is super smart.

Ghevi Sartor if u have to say i are to to prove u are nice that means u think u arent nice. Nice people dont go around saying they are nice, they think they are normal, they think they arent nice or they just think that their action is just normal. But still, that may not be what that person is trying to say. Its just that alot of creeps out there have the tendency to claim they are a nice guy when infact their action maybe nice but their motive isnt.

@@ghevisartor6005 Hello Ghevi. While I do agree with you that this is reductionist. However, words and phrases changes meaning with time, that is just how language works. The phrase "I'm nice" when given in this particular caller's context makes it creepy. Because in media/culture in the past decades or so, we see men being friendzoned ALL saying I am "nice." Like Yozuro-san said, these men are forcing favors onto their crush expecting something in return. Girls HATES that, makes their skin crawl. The phrase "I'm nice" is a warning sign for women, puts up red sirens all around their heads. Guess what? That was me when I was younger. I believe most young men go through that phase, at least those that are not fortunate enough to be born with extraordinary money and looks. I was being "nice" to the girls I was pursuing. I was not being "nice" I was being annoying and frankly a pest. The young girls are also learning how to deal with this "niceness" so they do not what to make of it. They put up with it for a while and just "friendzone" these men because the women too are "nice". Soon the woman will mature and realize these "nice" men are only being nice to them, it is not a trait of their character, but the men want something from that specific woman. From what I have learned, it is best to be "kind" and not "nice." Treat EVERYONE with "kindness", do not treat one person with "niceness." Smart women, especially the ones around my age, have very strong bullshit detectors. I'm sorry, that was off topic. Ghevi, only the first paragraph was directed at you. The rest are my own musing, please do not get offended. I do not want to assume anything about you, these are all comments on myself and my own experience. These were very painful lessons for me to learn, as I am sure most men have to. I hope my little blurb will help some young men in the future.

I think it depends on the context. If your loved one says "you're so nice" and you reply "yea, I try to be as nice as I can" I think that's normal. However, if you tell someone "I'm a nice guy, I'll keep you safe" out of the blue to some random girl, it can be taken in many different directions, some of which are creepy. It's about how and what you say, to whom, and in what context.

Just sharing a thing on le internet ~~ am a fan of Twice (KPOP) and there's that dude know to be Nayeon stalker and He says the same thing... I really like this segment of Dr. K praise that troll question as I am curious as to what he thinks of the matter stated :D... If you might not have asked the guys name Josh1994 (could be seen in YT)

I'm sure doctors have met and dealt with way crazier stories too. This one isn't even that wild, in fact it is quite likely to be common.

jebayed

Is it simping if you marry her?

If his wife is Indian, that's technically Asian.

@@Pakyakachu but is it simping

@@MrTriple3D If his wife wears the pants XD

Its not brand new in that sense. People have been awkward in real life too towards each other and their relationship. There are plenty of guys that are scared shitless to talk to girls irl and do awkward things to get attention. Thing with twitch is that anonymity helps you overcome a certain fear and money is the way to form connections. No matter who you are or what you look like. Guys like this feeds on the attention he gets and creates an illusion of an actual relationship.

@@dusanbiga4948 its new and its cause of the internet

true

Really good explanation

Damn, heroin gives you an euphoric rush. Donating makes your wallet wake mah bwoy.

I ain't gonna waste my money on some random chick in the internet but I kinda understand where they are coming from... Interesting...

Yeah. It’s all gross and those guys probably need serious help. Not just throwing money at a girl on a screen.

Agreed. FWIW, I've been seeing a therapist since January of this year for what I was told is depression and generalized anxiety disorder, and on the 2nd visit when he told me my diagnosis, he mentioned the diagnosis itself isn't particularly important, as the treatment for my past of completely disengaging with the real world through internet use, gaming, etc. is going to be the same. What I gathered from that was that the label itself isn't too important, at least in my case anyway.

@@zeroethsort1071 it helps determine the patterns your thoughts may be forming the real difficulty is determining why and what other habits you may have formed or environmental factors that make you want to keep up the patterns. So you start asking questions and try forming the answers.

@douglas wahid Perhaps you can share that clip instead of simply claiming that he's "defending that creep culture" and expecting us to not only dismiss the possibility that you're lying, but dismiss the possibility that you've simply misunderstood what he was saying.

@douglas wahid Yess, please share the clips. 😊

That's interesting, why do you need to be a psychologist to be safe for giving other people the benefit of the doubt?

Kittaamon because they’ve seen some stuff that normal people don’t. I bet someone in their whole life only sees someone think something super dumb that a psychologist has seen hundreds of times. It’s best to assume it’s a poorly made joke

The vod is in the description if you wna watch the whole stream

To be fair, this channel IS called "out of context " lmao

As a doctor, this was the only appropriate response. Firstly, even though it was a troll there are people like this even if they wouldn't self-describe this way. Secondly, the risk of it being a real person and the backlash of them opening up and then being dismissed as a troll is FAR too heavy a risk to dismiss people like this.

In the Dr.K stream you go! Jokes aside I agree with you totally, it's a really important and interesting subject that isn't discussed enough. Partly I think it's because it's still kinda new phenomenon, but I could be wrong

@@KanohiVahi Yeah, it really scucks. Because on one hand I'm socially awkward and have social anxiety, and I'm very introverted. So I don't meet a whole ton of people. But even the women I do meet I don't like very much. It sucks when you find someone online like on twitch who you have a lot in common with but they're on the other side of the country and have no clue you exist lol.

SkintSNIPER262 Dude you need some control over your life, forget these women and focus on yourself first.

Easier said than done like anything we like or do it's mentally integrated due to how we are raised, outside influence like school and people we meet or hurt us, then I'll say society because I'm lazy to go on forever. We're molded over time you can't change it on command time and help is needed Easier said than done. ..

@@Blue-mr7fe Yep. I agree. it also has to do with biological instincts. But I'm slowing working on myself. Pushing forward with diet and excersise.

So this is a Wave A, and this is Wave B, and this is Simp Police comming for you, now what happens when you push wave B...

"If you freeze the wave early you can force the girl to overextend and leave her vulnerable to ganks"

I was literally thinking this on the last one I watched.

@@shutupMaji imma try this tomorrow

''now, if you slowpush wave A and B, then crash the wave on C you can get a free cheater on her, but it's usually frowned upon in the current meta''

not really. there are plenty of people that know what they are doing is wrong. but they are so addicted to it that they just can't stop. there are pedophiles that don't act on their thoughts cause they know its wrong. there are drug addicts that want to stop but just cant. can't really compare simping with pedophiles and drug addicts but i can compare addictive behaviour with addictive behaviour

some people see all the negative connotations to what they are doing and need some form of validation to feel good about what they are doing. take people with anxiety that dont go outside yet feel pressured to do so, once you diagnose them their actions (or lack of) are now validated, they no longer feel pressure as they have a reason for being the way they are. it isnt always like this, but it happens fairly often across the spectrum of issues.

HE'S A SIMP, That needed to hear what doctor K has to say.

🤣

Future of me

Yeah but there are actually people who do this, so who exactly is "taking the bait?" Regardless if that guy is trolling, there's some seriously crazy stuff that has happened because of guys simping out like this. Look up Grant Amato for example.

People still bait like this? I mean I know jebaiting a streamer to click on something/read something they weren't expecting can be pretty funny, but this is like some serious 2012 internet era trolling. As Dr K was reading the thing I couldn't help but imagine the embarrassment the dude must feel after realizing this stupid joke was going to be taken seriously lol. Either way it's fun though

It's official, they use it for shorter videos. (I remember he once mentioned this channel on stream)
