If your mental health is at a point where you have screaming arguments with your hallucinations, being left to your own devices rather than to be under medical care doesn't seem like the right choice to me, at all.
It’s possible that, given it was mentioned earlier that he was on psych meds, he didn’t take them that day and it caused a hallucination/delusion that, because he was so excited about the eviction and was convinced it would work, it affected the hallucination as well causing it to stop. At least that’s what I think.
@@Voidspun-Yarns yeah, given that the ghost was almost certainly a hallucination brought on by severe mental health problems if he believed the eviction was valid it likely subconsciously impacted the nature of the delusion.
Story 35 54:48 - this sounds like OCD. Obsessive thoughts about bad things, including things like words that will not leave your head and committing unspeakable acts. The main thing is that these thoughts are not associated with any desire to actually commit them and are not urges, are absolutely _horrifying_ to the person having them, and won't stop. That's what the obsessive in OCD refers to, it's not a description of the compulsions like hand washing/tics/etc like people seem to think. It's actually a separate thing, that when combined with the compulsions, makes up OCD. Without the compulsions, obsessive intrusive thoughts like this can be part of schizophrenia. And, speaking from experience, having these thoughts is absolutely terrifying. I had no desire to act on these thoughts, there were no urges to do these things, just a thought that popped into my head every time a certain trigger occurred and would not go away and it was disgusting. They stopped entirely when I got on the right medication, which is how I know it wasn't me thinking these things, just a horrible side effect of imbalanced brain chemistry.
Was just about to say this same thing. Dude probably had an underlying issue and the medication made it worse. IIRC there’s an antidepressant that has actually been shown to alter some people’s brain chemistry to the point they do outrageous things. There was one guy who was straight but after taking the medication he was obsessed with gambling and hooking up with men.
late response, but yeah. i have OCD, and it manifested at about 7 years old for me. those thoughts are HORRIFIC, especially if you don't know why. the thoughts don't go away, and it can cause physical symptoms. hearing the guy be called a "racist pdf file" when he just. really really needed help and different medication. sucks, man. like OCD is a very misunderstood disorder and hearing textbook OCD be described as if the guy actually believed and wanted to act on the intrusive thoughts was awful. in the end, i hope he got the help he so clearly needed. on a nicer note, the lawyer who helped the delusional man "get rid of the ghost" was awesome! i have schizoaffective, and that's a really reccomended way to deal with delusions like that. same with the lawyer who helped talk a guy through the government stealing his thoughts. you talk to them as if you believe them, and apply real logic to the delusion. not to debunk it, but to help fix the fear that it causes. playing along to evict the ghost was the correct decision in this moment. being told you're not experiencing reality is super scary and can lead to hostility. being believed and having someone meet you where you are to help is an amazing feeling, and has helped me get into a space where i can get back on my meds or be talked back to reality more than once.
I was gonna say the same thing! I was like, "Wait, did someone just rip off one of the most famously bizarre AA cases and expect that AA fans don't look up actual lawyer stories?" Lmao
Ok so-- the guy in 35 might actually be a form of OCD. Looking to sue is something else, this should have been brought to a dotor not a lawyer. But the fact that he was having these obsessive thoughts, is trying not to act on them and actively sought out help is a kinda a good thing tbh. Calling him a racist predator is kinda icky if he is actively trying to control these compulsions and not do anything horrible. Good on him for going to the psych ward and I hope his meds get balanced so he can manage the compulsions.
Keep in mind these are Redditors making these post and they have a very strange morality system and way of viewing the world. It’s fun to confuse them with their own logic
46:04 Story 29 is all a reference to Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies, more specifically the DLC case where Sasha Buckler, a 22 year old girl working at an aquarium asks the Lawyer, Phoenix Wright, to defend an Orca. Not surprised the reference flew over the narrators head but it's not the first thing most people think about when mentioning Phoenix Wright lol
Wait a minute, the one about the sharks in the hurricane?! That one was gold! Are you kidding me?? Edit: Never mind, you meant the real chickens in the garbage that came immediately afterward. Please specify 😞
Story 35 bothers me because the guy doesn’t seem to be racist or a predator. He sounds more like he is suffering from OCD. Many people think OCD is simply wanting things clean and organized and while that is one subtype there are many other symptoms. The main part is unsettling intrusive thoughts that distress the person having them. With the guy in the story it sounds like he had an OCD theme revolving around racism that has now changed to POCD. OCD is debilitating to live with and is made worse by how misunderstood intrusive thoughts are. They are not desires they are your brain attacking itself to make you afraid, like the cancer of mental illness.
my one of these was so confusing... because I was working Tech Support. I had a client call up to get help with her phone (the one she was calling on) because she couldn't call out. I worked out that it seemed like she didn't have any credit, nothing to do with actual tech failings, and advised her that she could check which company she was with in the settings, showed her how, and was like "they're who you need to talk to" before she started to say she couldn't call out because the police were locking her phone and had stopped her being able to call anyone... and that she needed me to call a lawyer for her so they wouldn't know Let's just say I did my best to tell her how to explain that I was a tech support person, not a god, and basically didn't get an outside line, so she still needed to contact the cellphone companies or try free numbers to talk to the lawyers.
@@keziahpietersen9854not claimed haha but the story from reddit is edited with the green text and narrator image, which makes it look like they’re saying it instead of reading
This is horrible! Story 2 was put all in green as if Green were the one to say it, and I know some part was missing in story 3 that explained that this particular hospital had the mental ward on floor 5. It's better than a robot voice, which is why I watch it, but only slightly! The editing in the robot videos manages to be better sometimes because you can actually see what the people were trying to type as well as their usernames.
That one on the old soldier reminds me of my great grandfather. He made it explicitly clear to us that he wouldn't accept intervention or help from the family, and that he wanted to go out on his own terms. And, well, he did. He was found deceased in his home of a heart attack after spending the last 70 years of his life working. Grandpa Rex was a wonderful man who knew exactly how he wanted to go out and refused any input on his decision. I used to go to the post office he worked at as a kid and marvel at the mail sorting machinery they had, he seemed pretty happy there. But he was never the same after our great grandma passed, and we all knew it, so we respected his decision. I don't think there was a legal mess over it, either, since he passed of natural causes and he'd made his will clear.
"Pro se" is pronounced "pro say." It double time, "Pro ess ee" sounds like "Pro ess ay." If the client/opposition is pro-SA then they need to bin prison if they've actually done it, not be your client or opposition.
Not a lawyer, a legal secretary: My favorite claim that always came up in a boat sinking case is the client had all her jewelry with her. She was taking it to be cleaned and had forgotten it was still in her purse.
Dude in story 35 obviously has a type of OCD. The repetitive intrusive thoughts would be causing the person extreme distress (hence checking into the psych ward) and does NOT make that person racist or a predator
13:40 Green, you have AN AMERICAN ACCENT. STOP saying NINE-ELEVEN. You know better than this. Unless that's a Canadian accent, in which case you are still probably geographically close enough to know better, or you are AI, in which case, shame on you, Undersparked.
To be fair, I'm American and I've made this mistake more than once 😅 my dad works part time as a 911 operator and I once absentmindedly asked him how his nine eleven job is going and he laughed at me
AI/TTS would pronounce it as 9 hundred and 11. I know because I listen to it all the time (I use a TTS app to listen to stories/fics, because I can't afford the audiobooks and I'm chill with the robotic voice the app has)
@@onionbubs386yeah, on second consideration, I'm gonna say that as a voice actor in a recorded video they should have high enough standards for Green to do a second take.
20:00 it’s really awesome when you use the word “chicken” in a story about actual chickens- I promise- it does not make the story sound absolutely terrible- wait that was a lie- it does make the story sound totally absurd. There are so many words you could have replaced dick with- member & junk are two simple examples- I would think with the narrator being a dude his vocabulary for a part of the body he has had since birth (presumably) would not be so limited that he couldn’t think of one other word to replace “dick”. I also don’t understand why grown up words CANT be used on an app where there is a kids version of the app. I guess when you decide to not work and call UA-cam a “job” then you have to pucker up to kiss ass so as not to miss out on a paycheck. I liked it better when UA-cam channels were ran by people with a spine and didn’t depend on UA-cam to pay their rent. When UA-cam pays your bills because making a video a week is easier than having an actual job then you stock up on Chapstik like Diddy stocked up on baby oil- it’s probably easier to kiss ass when your lips aren’t chapped. I miss the days when adults could use adult language- instead adults have to hear how Jeffery Dahmer “unalived” people- because the truth of Dahmer murdering people is too harsh to hear- A dick is a dick, not a chicken. Dahmer and Bundy killed people, they didn’t “unalive” anyone- UA-cam was better when “creators” were not terrified of missing out on ad revenue because they had actual jobs and YT was a hobby- not their only source of income. It’s all a little too kid friendly and the stories from Reddit sound ridiculous with the stupid replacement words narrators choose.
3rd one is actually rather sweet. Helping handle the problem without mocking the guy so he can be more comfortable and feel safe.
Didn't he call him a "crazy idiot"?
If your mental health is at a point where you have screaming arguments with your hallucinations, being left to your own devices rather than to be under medical care doesn't seem like the right choice to me, at all.
The idea of the attorney filing an eviction notice against a ghost is hilarious.
I hope the crazy dude is ok
Do you know what game this is?
It’s possible that, given it was mentioned earlier that he was on psych meds, he didn’t take them that day and it caused a hallucination/delusion that, because he was so excited about the eviction and was convinced it would work, it affected the hallucination as well causing it to stop.

Story #3 is possibly one of the best bits of lawyering ive ever heard. What a sharp, and yet, compassionate lawyer.
Do you know what game this is?
The first story took me on a trip. So much whiplash from something that sounded totally logical at first, I had to listen to it again.

Yeah, this is absolutely OCD. Guy isn't a pdf, but he is very sick.
I came here to say exactly this. Also, some medications can actually make this worse. Maybe the guy didn’t have a case, but he certainly needed help.

Evicting the ghost was actually very touching. A wonderful compassionate move by the attorney.
