I do not know this Auntie Bex lady but she sounds absolutely delightful.

This routine sounds vaguely familiar lol

Auntie - please take eb's comment as the compliment I'm sure it was meant to be. You obviously have very good taste in entertainment!

Me too!

Auntie Bex!!! Me too! I'm also a Bex! (Rebecca)

Horse's mouth.🐴

I lived in Costa Rica for a number of years. It’s very much less corrupt than other Central American countries. If the compound had been in the US, with all that opulence just lying around, I wonder what level of ethical practice we would have seen

@@loisherzog8803 ya I mean money and its power to corrupt are pretty universal (and let’s face it, pretty American too) so idk how exactly things would have played out in the US. It’s of course possible the authorities here would’ve been just as greedy and crooked as the ones in Costa Rica… but one thing’s for sure at least - there def wouldn’t have been *4* _(!!!)_ f@%*&#g trials 😏

Some US states have solved the problem by allowing the police to confiscate whatever they want without having to return it. It's enough that the police say that they suspect a person of a crime, or that the property in question has been acquired by some (unknown) illegal means. It's legal theft, so there is no corruption! What an invention.

@@X_Baron Definitely corrupt but isn't supposed to go to the police department as a whole and not into individual pockets?

I agree.🎯

Of course money is passive. It does nothing by itself. What you decide to do with it reflects your personality and foibles!

@@rejaneoliveira5019 Hi Rejane , I hope you are doing well.

Yes... money can bring out the worst in some people... or bring the worst of people around you.

@@nickyblue4866 so true!

Even money can't necessarily fix mental health problems.

@@Catlily5 no, the point was that they could access it.

@@coffeecat086 True.

Wait what??

@@merk.9285 ...watch the video? He says that sometimes these videos are more of a demonstration of what not to do.

Hint and 1/2!

Harmlessly appalling.

How 'bout appealing!

omg, how cute!!!

I bet he chuckled at this one?

🤣🤣🤣

Grande should've given you a 👍 like💓! Love your comment: you're quite "bright", funny. 😁

It's like when all those people tell they were in a dark place. She tried to change that at least.

Yea that lamp thing came out of left field. Strange. Yet tasteful!

She hoped they would lighten the mood.

A Pet will bring you more love and happiness than anything else in the World.

@@eadweard. hahahah

@@lorimiller4301 I agree, but at the same time, when they die, like in the case of my poor Shih-Tzu just 3 months ago, it is heartbreaking, it's like losing a part of your family, a part of you. Now he lives only in my memories and videos and pictures I took of him. He was so miserable I couldn't stand it, he barked in pain. They offered euthanasia right away, we immediately took him back home, cause we were not ready. They also said they could remove his eyes, with no guarantee of him getting better, no, his condition would only worsen after the operation. He was already deaf, practically no communication. When we returned with him to home, he barked in pain, his eyes were bloody red, there was puss coming out of his left eye and he had a growth on it. When no one touched him he barked, he was calling his family... we petted him, but his eyes must have hurt because even though he was petted constantly, he would finally bark again. When I write this I'm opening my wound on my heart. I gave him the best food ever, one he couldn't eat normally and I and my parents went with him. My parents stayed behind and I stayed with him till the end. Those images of him being essentially killed are burned into my mind. I hugged him through the process because I wanted him to know, that we will meet again on the other side, wherever that may be. In conclusion, pets are awesome, but when they go away it sucks, sucks immensely. I wish I will die before my parents do.

I lost the plot here. So sorry about the tragic loss of a pet. But how does that relate to the Bender case?

Same

One can take concious control of their mind with regular meditation. control of thinking eliminates mental illness.( negitive thinking) No matter the situation, if ones thoughts are controlled( off) there will be peace of mind. Many have sort of a romantic affair with mental illness. They've come to appreciate it. It's like an old friend. That is an insane form of ego. There are countless mental health professionals whom delight in giving a specific diagnosis of mental illness and an equal number of patients whom appreciate the diagnosis. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️ 🙏🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️🌅

@@erikparent8176 well that's not true. While mindfulness can help a lot withsome aspects of metal illnesses... it's best to combine that with therapy or something like CBT or DBT amd augmented with the appropriate psychiatric medication (if needed) as well as a good amd healthy diet and physical fitness.

Rejane, that was a great comment 😚❤

@@erikparent8176 Good one as usual, Erik.👍

@@nickyblue4866 Incorrect!! 🧨💥 Depending on ones dedication to present moment awareness, absolute equilibrium can be achieved in almost any situation!!! 🤯 There have been many cases when people have experienced severe limit situations during extreme combat situations and their egos collapsed resulting in the Peace that passes all understanding!!✝️ There is one female serial killer who's ego collapsed just before execution and she experienced Enlightenment just before death. She passed while in Spiritual ecstasy!! The ladies are getting fiesty!! Let's dance!💃💃💃💃💃💃🕺 Some people don't like it when I disagree with Dr. Mcdreamy!!!😜😜😜😜

A cage with golden bars.

A prison with no walls lol?? And screens lol

They were robbed in 2001 on the way home that’s why they had guards

There are many Yogi's who have mastered their minds with control of thinking. Turning off thought for extended periods produces Spritual ecstasy which no man made drug can touch. There are some meditators that spend years and a majority of their days sitting in meditation. Asrams all over the world are dedicated for that purpose. It's so powerful and intoxicating they strive for nothing else. They feel complete and whole and feel they lack for nothing. I recommend to everyone to meditate everyday with regularly. One will experience a life with so much joy and little fear. Life is appreciated at a level most cannot conceive of. 🙏🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️🌅

Hi Erik - As usual pithy and great emoji! Thanks.🙏

@@cht2162 I know somthing about that affliction. It lead to my awakening and Enlightenment! 🌅

@@bthomson Hi B.! Thanks! Your comments never disappoint!😘

However, it’s hard to be happy if one is very poor.

@@Ceerads yeah, money is a tool, and a life saver at times My girl used to say that money wasn't important at all, blah blah blah, until her uncle got seriously ill and in need of a very expensive medical procedure (if he was to have any chance of survival) Let's just say that if I hadn't lent her money for that particular medical procedure, her uncle would've died two years ago, give or take Since that occasion, she never mentioned that whole BS about money not being important again Have a great day

@@filipefigueiredo9847 that's great I'm so glad you could do that but I'm not talking about having enough, I'm talking about being super rich where you can have anything on a whim...that was the kind of wealth these guys had and it didn't bring them happiness.

So it's good to have just the right amount of money, not too little not too much. LOL

@@TheTrevelyansway hahaha! It gets ridiculous!😂

So bizarre.

Any angle of a case that can be commented on WILL be commented on!

Only if it's full of crocodiles.

And a float!

It's likely!

Mrs. R - Favorite topics! As much as we adore you maybe better topics should head the list?

@@bthomson 😂 omg you are right! Now I notice it too. I meant 'in the area of mental health topics' . Hugs! 🙂

I really knew what you meant - just kidding you a little!💐

I believe he had a case of Murchison but not for attention. I believe he was curing her with purges, injections if God's know what. And that she knew inside her life was in jeopardy. While I have no idea why he died. I believe there was control at play on his part and to be honest it is lucky for her that he passed as she was in rough shape.

@@shimmer8289 Do you mean Münchhausen?

@@MsSonali1980 my spellchecker there u r

Of course every location on earth has many qualities! Some good some 😱💀👺

I have many fond memories of visiting Costa Rica 😍

Even many non mentally ill rich people often don't help others.

Very true Lilly and that is a shame.

...and isn't interesting that television never offers this sort of educational insight into human behaviour, yet given the choice, people are keen to watch videos like this.

@@deanpd3402 i couldn’t agree more.

Not related, but I love your hair!

I have bi polar and that term is a great way to describe a manic episode. When im in the middle of one ill find a project that usually includes creating or building something and for the next few months spend all day and night working on it non stop. It always ends up being a postive experience as i channel a huge amount of creative energy into my project at the time. As well as learning new skills in order to be able to do it. Ive ended up learning how to grow weed and turning my bedroom into a functioning grow room, learning how to cool dmt and turning my kitchen into a chemistry lab, turning my living room into a fortress with tapestries hung everywhere, lighting, air-conditioning, humidity control, air fitering systems all of it operated by remote controls as well as housing my bed, furniture and whatnot. As well as getting into extreme shape by working our non stop, learning about suppliments/vitamin regimes and skin care products/chemical peels. The onlt bad part is when the mania eventually ends I swing into a huge depressive state and all the creative energy turns into extreme depression and lack of motivation.

@@nickyblue4866 haha. Well slow down there Mr Psychedelic Walter White. Funny what you did to your bedroom, like you needed every possible space! Is your bathroom going to be where the nitrous oxide pump is? Ha. While I actually didn't mention in my comment, I was actually diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder as well. The pandemic lockdowns made me go into a bizarre state of fixing up my apartment too. I didn't get around to a chemistry lab... Instead I made everything automated, to the point of got the Starship Enterprise going on in here. The manic renovations phrase, origin is a little dark.. So in Australia we have a slang term for like really drunk and disoriented, being munted. And unfortunately one of my good friends had a partner addicted to Klonopin (the person would eat an entire box of 100 of the 2mg in a single day!! They should have been sent to the military for experimentation honestly, it's insane they survived that and put up with the withdrawals). Anyway, the guy would go to target, buy cheap book-shelves, return home and attached them to the wall... Somewhat crooked, he'd wait for my friend to get home, believing he'd get praise for his fine klonopin induced craftsmanship.. But instead my friend was understandably pissed off, and started calling them munted renovations.. Lol. Of course the guy would argue back and specificly say "they're not munted.... They're good!!!". After my friend saw my place with all of the "actually impressive work" done, we realised this is what manic renovations are compared to munted renovations.. Now we have a bunch. Stoned renovations. Tweaked renovations. You name it. Compare renovations, it's a window into the soul. And yes, like you, I experience the depression as a come down.. Unfortunately though whatever is in my head still keeps the mania going for a few days, causing "mixed episodes"... That are horrendous, is the only way to describe them. Anyway, cheers for the laugh, stay safe. :)

Side note (at least for me): the manic phase projects tend to be very self-serving. This is why I watch Dr Grande; I binge watched everyone one of his videos and learned a lot about the state of Psychological research (and I thank him for whole heartedly for that, brilliant content)... People are sick of hearing me not diagnosing anyone and merely speculating... But going back to the self serving point, I found unfortunately the grandiose activities I got up to hindered my ability to focus on my other responsibilities.. So yes, while I admit I've done some fun things and have learnt a lot along the way. I compare it to having "extremely strong ADHD", I think it's important for some people to be a bit mindful of what they're doing and why they're doing it, otherwise you might just go off the damn rails. Haha... Yeah, mania can be a harsh mistress, even when you feel very accomplished..... Glad I learnt this lesson during various lockdowns, before doing something very aloof when l really needed to focus on other things.

Love that movie. Watched it couple of times

Here's an idea - become a patron! He does answer questions on that platform from time to time.

Dr. Grande may be making a video about you soon.

I was in the southwest peninsula in Costa Rica for several days. The temperature was only about 89 degrees, not really too hot for a native Texan. However the humidity was about 99%. It was the most miserable few days of my life. There was no A/C and no place to get away from it. There was no way to be cool by perspiration as it would not evaporate anyway. How someone from the States could live there with no A/C, I cannot imagine. It would have made me crazy too. Edit: Okay, just saw the remark about altitude. Point. I would have to see it myself to believe it was any better.

@@meenki347 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just googled the case. Absolutely horrible! 😳

@@ashleymarie3978 it certainly was (and still is). After watching Dr. Grande for awhile, I know he could offer valuable insight. What is haunting is that could have been my son, or many other sons or daughters who are just trying to buy a candy bar. (PS I am not related to the officer involved :(.
