I really wish they didn’t write Kutner off the show by having him kill himself. I know the actor needed to quit immediately to work for Obama but they could have just had him find a new job or just pulled to a new calling. The only foreshadow that makes sense to me is the mirror mirror episode where the patient mirroring kutner said he didn’t mind pain because what mattered was experiencing something new and that he didn’t want to keep wondering what was on the other side
@@silvershocknicktail6638 No, the hot tub thing was one of the only things they could extract from the patient that wasn’t him mirroring. As Kutner says later in the episode, he hates hot tubs. Give it a rewatch
@@robert9016 it was meant to be that after being in the water a bit, a bit of the real him peeked through but he was mirroring Kutcher. Kutcher was agreeing with the mirroring but slightly correcting him saying he’s not a masochist but like new experiences.

I once had a horrific headache for days and nothing worked, I couldn't even sleep with the agony. It went away but during that time all I wanted to do was die.
I know the feeling, had headaches daily that were beginning to turn into crippling migraines 3 times a week, this was lasting for most of my entire life slowly getting worse. In the last 5 years where it was getting even worse I was seeking help from every specialist I could only to be told there was literally nothing wrong with me and I was in amazing health. Skull being on fire every day, and having to actively avoid light because it instantly caused me huge amounts of pain I would call not healthy. With no answer to fix any of the issues I was having, the mind tends to wander to the ultimate end solution. On a random aside my family Dr after one of my blood tests just said I should try taking some B12. My B12 levels were only slightly lower than mid range, but he'd noticed that my B12 levels had been slowly decreasing when comparing my blood tests. Bought myself some B12 and literally couldn't be more over the moon for the first while as I was finally able to go outside and not feel like my skull was on fire, not wake up and instantly be in extreme pain. However I now have to take B12 daily or at the very least every 2-3 days, otherwise the headaches come back with a vengeance, but before that a massive wave of apathy and general depression. Chronic pain is no joke, not being able to escape pain even to the smallest amount will just drive one insane.
Speaking as a survivor of the club, it's one thing to want out. It's another to use your kid to help you carry it out. Your kid's supposed to be the reason you keep going, not your accomplice. I don't use the use the word "selfish" when it comes to this sort of thing lightly because I don't think people who do it are, but it is horrifically selfish not to consider how helping you die will mess your kid up. Even surviving, that's still going to mess him up. Yeah, you think you're doing him a favour, that he's better off without you. Nobody is better off with this in them. Especially a kid.
@@dietotaku Seems like a hard thing to bond over. Imagine throwing bread to the ducks one day with your old man and going "Hey dad, remember that time you asked me to distract some doctors so you could top yourself? Wacky fun. Oh, how we all laughed."
I think the writers thought, "we'll show how the kid gets it now (that his dad's pain is unbearable)," and were in the middle of constructing other plot points and just didn't think it through, or decided to ignore it. It doesn't work for a second reason too - the kid wouldn't be able to make that turn... he'd be begging the doctors to find a cure.

I had an abscessed tooth once and hoped that I was dying. They should have known the pain was legit and deeper in the brain when they disconnected his head earlier in the episode.
Yep. Only someone with balls could know how horrible the pain is when they are injured. Women could never know. Just like we could never know what birth feels like….
@@dietotaku Dude...brush your teeth and get a good mouthwash. I recommend Hydrogen Peroxide. 50/50 with water and swish/gargle for a whole minute. My teeth have never felt better or shined whiter.
I live with chronic severe pain. I understand why someone would want to off themself to stop the pain. There is always someone else who will be affected by anyone who does something like that. That is one of the main reasons i have not done that. Im also the only person bringing home a paycheck in my family. Love with make you do things that even severe pain wont.
So what i never understood about this episode is - wouldn't he have tried anticonvulsants at some point? Pregabalin for example is prescribed for chronic pain. But maybe they just weren't the right ones for his type of epilepsy 🤔 I have no medical background I'm just a person on the internet with chronic pain who's taken anticonvulsant meds for it
As a doctor, a lot of characters in House are, but Taub is hands down the worst in bedside manners and anchoring bias. In real life he'd be sued for malpractice within 1 year of licensing.
Doctors get sued for malpractice *all the time* Didn’t House have like 60 malpractice cases (Cuddy mentioned something like that at one point) throughout his career? That’s what insurance is for. I like Taub because of the way his anchoring bias works with the rest of the team. House assembled his team based on personality so he could get dissenting voices and different specialties.
@@lpedr0l Well, for one his belief that sane people don't commit suicide is very silly. If the mind or body is constantly in excruciating pain, what is the human mind wired to do? Find a way out of the pain. If most attempts to solve the problem have failed and the pain continues to be debilitating, what is the last solution available to try? This idea that suicide is a decision only the mentally ill can make is simply not true. But I have a feeling it's because he hasn't been in constant excruciating pain like that. Imagine spending years feeling that level of pain day in and day out
@@harashe1000 bro, his approach was to consider the patient was having psychosomatic pain or drug seeker, both of wich aren't very rare and in life, you exhaust the common options first, always
@@dietotaku It really isn't. There's nothing sane about it. Depression causes distortions in viewing reality and results in behavior that interrupts life. It causes isolation, and sluggishness, exhaustion. It makes people give up, to never feel happy in world with many reasons to make one happy. you are allowed to feel sad. if sadness is all you feel, then you are depressed, and that's a problem.
I have a full body pain condition that has been getting worse and worse since I was a child. It's redefined level 10 pain more than 5 times in my life. I can no longer help around the house and my sleep is terrible due to pain. Nothing works to alleviate it. Even opioids only barely take the edge off. You do get depressed. And sometimes I do want to die. But I would never take my own life. My continued pain is nothing to the pain I would cause to my loved ones if I chose to end my life. It's the most selfish thing a person can do.
i wish this was true !!!!! i have the exact pain this describes and just like him no doctor can find why. i know its just a show but this one hits hard.
Kunters remark about Suicide not being a trait of mental illness..... That was definitely foreshadowing that he was Depressed On top of that. The fact that this mans SON could tell he didn't want to be alive... It's such an ADULT concept that a child shouldn't have to understand
Making your kid an accomplice to your own no-breath attempt seems psychotic, even if you were at that low a point. What's the kid's mental state gonna be 20 years down the line when he lays in bed at night remembering that he helped knock off his own dad?
"Hideo Kojima Tries to be Interviewed by Dan Ryckert" Yeah... Dan was definitely the weak link in this interview. Kojima answered everything, offering additional insights, and Dan would say, "Oh, yeah," or "Okay." Nothing bad about this interview came from Kojima's side of it.
Saying somebody who wants to commit suicide is crazy is rediculas. Some times its the only rational option. If you are a burden on your family and are going through torment every day of your life and doctors just treat you like you are making it up makes suicide the only option for some people. And most doctors will send you to a psychiatrist when a few tests come back negative. Most doctors only care about the status of the job and couldnt give a sht about the patients.
There is nothing good about saying it is crazy and there is nothing good about saying it is rational. It is ultimately an emotional decision. A sane but depressed person can look at his life and say well, based on all my pain, objectively, most people would probably have tried to hurt themselves. This is actually how I used to think. The part missing here is that the pain tolerance of the individual is often a key measure of what happens. At least in the cases not involving self-medicating and then overdose happens. If you have been in pain for 15-20 years and brainwashed yourself emotionally that hurting those around you would be a worse pain to you, well you stay alive. It doesn’t if that had no rational basis to you. You fucken lie to yourself as many times as you need to give yourself hope at the times when you need it. Felt like a survival instinct to me and I was lucky. Furthermore, it is irrational and crazy to act like we can predict the future. I never thought I would get out of that pain but I also thought the pain could be manipulating my thought process. I could have been completely wrong about that but it doesn’t matter. Cuz I could see that scenario being true at least 1% of the time and that was enough hope to keep going. Alot of people who go theough pain for a long time also feel like if they give up, they are not only saying that they can predict the future. But then all those years of surviving meant nothing. Pain tolerance is unfortunately what separates how people decide what to do. If you have had to handle alot of different types of pain in your life, including external sources like a bad break up, it makes a big difference. Wheras, if all the pain you have ever experienced was inside your head, you are more likely to feel like you can’t handle it. Because if you had something like a bad breakup and eventually the horrible pain subsided, you will never forget that it is a possible outcome. Whereas if all the pain you have had had been buried in your mind and you never have gotten relief, it can be much harder not to convince yourself that you aren’t a defective person and this pain is really just telling you to quit. The trigger that makes someone want to kill themselves is ultimately governed by their emotions. Which is why there are so many spur of the moment suicides where someone has a horrible set of circumstances and just decided to jump off a bridge. Attempting suicide shouldn’t be labeled as crazy or rational. We are humans who when influenced by strong pain, can have very powerful emotional reactions. I used to punch walls, smack myself in the face and cry all night. That was enough for me to not get to the thought of I can’t go on like this. Everyone is different but their emotions at the time is the deciding factor. So many people who die are not even leaving notes or giving the impression that it was planned. An unexpected amount of pain will either convince someone to fight harder or give in.
@@TwinklingStar0839Which is exactly how my Aunt and grandfather completed suicide. I think I will live if I see something that reminds me of it. I have cPTSD from childhood abuse, and PTSD from having my ankle broken, and being stalked for the last 11 yrs (so far) by my ex. I somehow still manage to navigate my life just fine. People need to toughen up.
Did the pain start from a testicle injury he got when he played hockey in his youth as his son mentioned or what caused this specific epilepsy episode?

Whats wrong with him? He doesnt show that side of him to patients as far as i remember.
Doctors get sued for malpractice *all the time*
Didn’t House have like 60 malpractice cases (Cuddy mentioned something like that at one point) throughout his career? That’s what insurance is for. I like Taub because of the way his anchoring bias works with the rest of the team. House assembled his team based on personality so he could get dissenting voices and different specialties.
Taub was always the most centered and pragmatic person, how can he be the worst?
@@lpedr0l Well, for one his belief that sane people don't commit suicide is very silly. If the mind or body is constantly in excruciating pain, what is the human mind wired to do? Find a way out of the pain. If most attempts to solve the problem have failed and the pain continues to be debilitating, what is the last solution available to try? This idea that suicide is a decision only the mentally ill can make is simply not true. But I have a feeling it's because he hasn't been in constant excruciating pain like that. Imagine spending years feeling that level of pain day in and day out
@@harashe1000 bro, his approach was to consider the patient was having psychosomatic pain or drug seeker, both of wich aren't very rare and in life, you exhaust the common options first, always
I used to think I wasn't depressed too. Used to just try and shake it off.
i'd go so far as to say depression is the most sane mental state to be in, considering the world around us and the realities of life itself.
@@dietotaku Only for a nihilist
@@dietotaku It really isn't. There's nothing sane about it. Depression causes distortions in viewing reality and results in behavior that interrupts life. It causes isolation, and sluggishness, exhaustion. It makes people give up, to never feel happy in world with many reasons to make one happy. you are allowed to feel sad. if sadness is all you feel, then you are depressed, and that's a problem.
This episode was a real kick in the nuts.
The thumbnail goes hard 😭😭😭
If you’re not breaking ribs, you’re not doing CPR right
It never lupus, but sometimes it is the nuts
"....unless it's in a place too deep to see with an EEG." (after house's solution) *they confirm with an EEG* lol
0:25 I think there was a typo in the script when they gave it to her
The line normally read as "Get back in the _fucking_ car Zach"
Funny Martin started off his acting career as the son of a receptionist in a hospital series.
Watching a tv show and they attached a crisis hotline, they can’t help themselves
I have a full body pain condition that has been getting worse and worse since I was a child. It's redefined level 10 pain more than 5 times in my life. I can no longer help around the house and my sleep is terrible due to pain. Nothing works to alleviate it. Even opioids only barely take the edge off.
You do get depressed. And sometimes I do want to die. But I would never take my own life. My continued pain is nothing to the pain I would cause to my loved ones if I chose to end my life. It's the most selfish thing a person can do.
I hope life will be good for you… you really are one hell of a trooper for resisting that urge that I’m sure you feel very often
Who woulda thought the cause of your chronic pain is your balls
Prayers up! 🙏🏻✝️
This is nuts
Double Munchausen by proxy with the kid thriving on the attention as well as his dad.
Painless. My favourite episode 😞
i wish this was true !!!!! i have the exact pain this describes and just like him no doctor can find why. i know its just a show but this one hits hard.
He meant a revolver with 1 bullet Taub not an assault rifle!
Brazil nuts kill you.
Man nuts save your life.
I know which one I'm eating.
That was nuts!
the kutner response to taub is fucking tragic man...
Can you guys do the "Can't fake that" montage
3:25 Imao Taub ...
Kunters remark about Suicide not being a trait of mental illness..... That was definitely foreshadowing that he was Depressed
On top of that. The fact that this mans SON could tell he didn't want to be alive... It's such an ADULT concept that a child shouldn't have to understand
What's up, House crew!🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Viewer discretion advised!?!
I'm here for the ball scratching!
house md is good
Kid looks like Moe from the simpsons
With catalytic converter, doesn't quite work as well as you think (1st scene)
Making your kid an accomplice to your own no-breath attempt seems psychotic, even if you were at that low a point.
What's the kid's mental state gonna be 20 years down the line when he lays in bed at night remembering that he helped knock off his own dad?
"Hideo Kojima Tries to be Interviewed by Dan Ryckert"
Yeah... Dan was definitely the weak link in this interview.
Kojima answered everything, offering additional insights, and Dan would say, "Oh, yeah," or "Okay."
Nothing bad about this interview came from Kojima's side of it.
People talking about foreshadowing, allow me to remind you that episode 20 wasn't planned yet.
Anyway it predicted that Kutner would commit suicide
@@lpedr0l it did, which makes it more impressive.
@@sashaenglebert ah sorry mate, I thought you were criticizing lol
The milk of human kindness, just made me think of fallout 4, is house strong? 😂
what the heck is the electrical noise interrupting the sound on this video?
Is that the actor from Torque?
Haven't seen him much
Saying somebody who wants to commit suicide is crazy is rediculas. Some times its the only rational option. If you are a burden on your family and are going through torment every day of your life and doctors just treat you like you are making it up makes suicide the only option for some people. And most doctors will send you to a psychiatrist when a few tests come back negative. Most doctors only care about the status of the job and couldnt give a sht about the patients.
Yes generally they come around on this attitude with people who are over 60.
But the attitude is still there for young people who aren't terminal.
There is nothing good about saying it is crazy and there is nothing good about saying it is rational.
It is ultimately an emotional decision. A sane but depressed person can look at his life and say well, based on all my pain, objectively, most people would probably have tried to hurt themselves. This is actually how I used to think.
The part missing here is that the pain tolerance of the individual is often a key measure of what happens. At least in the cases not involving self-medicating and then overdose happens. If you have been in pain for 15-20 years and brainwashed yourself emotionally that hurting those around you would be a worse pain to you, well you stay alive. It doesn’t if that had no rational basis to you. You fucken lie to yourself as many times as you need to give yourself hope at the times when you need it. Felt like a survival instinct to me and I was lucky.
Furthermore, it is irrational and crazy to act like we can predict the future.
I never thought I would get out of that pain but I also thought the pain could be manipulating my thought process. I could have been completely wrong about that but it doesn’t matter. Cuz I could see that scenario being true at least 1% of the time and that was enough hope to keep going. Alot of people who go theough pain for a long time also feel like if they give up, they are not only saying that they can predict the future. But then all those years of surviving meant nothing. Pain tolerance is unfortunately what separates how people decide what to do. If you have had to handle alot of different types of pain in your life, including external sources like a bad break up, it makes a big difference. Wheras, if all the pain you have ever experienced was inside your head, you are more likely to feel like you can’t handle it. Because if you had something like a bad breakup and eventually the horrible pain subsided, you will never forget that it is a possible outcome. Whereas if all the pain you have had had been buried in your mind and you never have gotten relief, it can be much harder not to convince yourself that you aren’t a defective person and this pain is really just telling you to quit.
The trigger that makes someone want to kill themselves is ultimately governed by their emotions. Which is why there are so many spur of the moment suicides where someone has a horrible set of circumstances and just decided to jump
off a bridge.
Attempting suicide shouldn’t be labeled as crazy or rational.
We are humans who when influenced by strong pain, can have very powerful emotional reactions.
I used to punch walls, smack myself in the face and cry all night. That was enough for me to not get to the thought of I can’t go on like this. Everyone is different but their emotions at the time is the deciding factor. So many people who die are not even leaving notes or giving the impression that it was planned. An unexpected amount of pain will either convince someone to fight harder or give in.
Good thing there was Dr House. Chronic Pain patients only, Ever get Taub's Idiot Pain Profile.
Oh youtube "AI" your flagging a 16 year old clip from a tv show because it may contain self harm or suicide. Defund Google
the beginning of the episode is a guy trying to kill himself with carbon monoxide
@@TwinklingStar0839 Yes, from a tv show from 16 years ago, at a made up hospital. This is not a documentary
Well UA-cam ceo died today so maybe the new one won’t be so hard on this stuff
@@TwinklingStar0839Which is exactly how my Aunt and grandfather completed suicide. I think I will live if I see something that reminds me of it. I have cPTSD from childhood abuse, and PTSD from having my ankle broken, and being stalked for the last 11 yrs (so far) by my ex. I somehow still manage to navigate my life just fine. People need to toughen up.
@@jenx5870 i don't disagree, but youtube's autoflagging system is telling it like it is, not how you wish it was.
Did the pain start from a testicle injury he got when he played hockey in his youth as his son mentioned or what caused this specific epilepsy episode?
man i miss kutner
Why is the video titled stretching his nuts🤔😂
Thank you for posting 988 hotline number it should be everywhere
Omg.... this was a early sign from kutner
1:58min Didn't that guy kill himself in a later season?
Hits different knowing Kutner commits suicide
You mean Kutner
@@balajikanakasabapathy6998 yes fixed the comment thank you
you mean kutner
What's the wonderful song playing around the 9-minute mark?
write the lyrics in a search.
Ray LaMontagne, "I Still Care for You", 2008
How could anyone be depressed owning such a sweet car? (looks like about a 72 Chevelle SS)
what was the song at the end?
we found a guy like that in forest dead, the skin extremely yellow in color + some corpse stains.
UA-cam is getting way to PC about stuff.
Kutner :(
Sadly No…not all epilepsy is treatable. Some are drug resistant and have no single pinpoint area of the brain.
What is this title bruh 💀
Initially I didn't know which ep this is and thought: wow, the title is so offensive yt has to give me a warning😅
😢man i hate how Kumar was wrote off from House, it was so sudden
He got an opportunity to work with the Obama administration and asked to be let go. Still, it didn't have to be that way.
Nice Thumbnail
