The way Jack phrases who he wants to be is very interesting. When he is talking about his dad, he essentially says "I don't want to be like my dad", except the language he uses is that he wants to be an improved version of his father, but not for himself, for his father. It's just a super interesting way to feel it, as I don't think most people who say something like this say it in such a way. It shows the love and respect he has for his dad. It's as though he doesn't just want to make his dad proud, but to be the type of man his dad would be proud to be. Sounds like he's doing a pretty good job too.
I feel very similar to the way your saying Jack feels about his father. Jack has since lost his father, and my dad is still relatively younger (50) and healthy. I don't really want to be "like my dad," but I do think that I'm very similar to him, for better or worse. I want to be better in many ways than he was in many situations, but I also want to be my own person in the end.
@Shiva Ramoutar i don't think we should think about it as good or bad, just interesting. many have a broken relationship with their parents without realising, this shows that he realised it but still cherished his relationship with his father
My best friend from school, we're 33yo so it's been a while, has a story that is very similar to Sean's with the older father and practically same details entirely on that subject. He lost his dad around start of winter and never said much about it until a couple weeks ago when he said "didn't realize how much I'd miss the old man 'til every time I'm about to call him." His mood instantly got better, so I added "It's never going to stop being weird, especially when I have to restock the fridge so I can keep stealing his beer". And be be there for in the future whenever he needs to "talk" again. Sean might not be thinking philosophical, might just be that he doesn't want him to be forgotten.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jack at Vidcon in 2019, and spent about an hour talking to him. This man is the sweetest human being i have ever met in my life, and every second was amazing. I saw the tweet where Jack said he was gonna talk to Dr. K, but sadly i was unable to watch it live, so i've been really excited for this upload. This man has done more for me, and 26 million other people, than he could ever fathom. Jack, thank you for being you.
@@crazuhuge my best bet is he's asking the comparison between what Jack acted like and told you during the hour-long conversation you had with him vs his talk with Dr. K. But it's just a guess, I too, have no clue
didnt mean to trigger you, was just "the sweetest human being" - thinking about putting someone on pedestals, but it is really whatever that's why the ":P".
What Jack was saying about his school grades, always passing but never with the flying colours his friends did and feeling lesser as a result, yet simultaneously not feeling the drive to improve... Man that hits hard. The EXACT same thing happened to me in school.
so he's worried about people thinking he's 'fake' when he puts on a character, but the problem is how he labels it. don't label it 'fake' label it 'performance'. you're an entertainer and yes you do have to put on a performance. fakeness is not genuine, performances are genuine and a work of art.
I totally disagree, what you wrote about labeling just sounds like coping to me. Yes, performances are a work of art but there is fakeness to them and there's no way around it. Jack was looking at it very realistically, especially because of the position he's in, where he's expected to put on a performance even when he doesn't feel like it.
Jack is such an emotionally intelligent and well spoken guy. This was a really nice episode to see. I relate to a lot of things in this and this whole conversation helped put words to things I was feeling and things in my past
Fascinating how the first words out of Seàn's mouth were "This is the first time that nobody's been able to hear Jacksepticeye, and the people rejoiced." By the end of the conversation Dr. K loops back to his perceived ability to be heard. Thank you for this incredible conversation!
being a streamer/youtube it seems like they often have the feeling of being a voyeur of their own life, "what do i look like", "is it okay", "are people going to judge me". That's tough to go through
Totally! A lot like being a film actor or politician... Just imagine though what it must be like for children of people who run those weird YT "family channels" - enough personal questioning already goes on in childhood & teen years without having millions of people watching your every move... 😬
Talking about the persona of jacksepticeye vs Sean was weirdly really relatable. Obviously we don’t have the audience that Jack does, but we all have these personas of the “best” parts of ourself we present during interviews or at work or school or certain relationships. Most of us tuck away major parts of us the majority of the time.
After losing my mother everyday I thought I was over the grieving stage and each day, week, month and years passed before I was over the grieving process. Now I have come to the conclusion that grieving is a survivors life long journey.
Damn, I don’t watch a lot of Jack’s content, because gaming video are becoming stale to me, but I have always respected him as a person, this reassured that’s feeling
This is actually a really interesting video for me. Because I think this is the first time I’ve watched Dr. K and he wasn’t the primary talker (Not that that is in any way a bad thing). It’s refreshing hearing jack going in deep and getting everything out without Dr. K having to be the primary director of conversation. I’ve noticed that most people kind of roll with any suggestion Dr. K brings up but jack actually had a lot of this stuff already thought out for himself.
I was a Jacksepticeye fan and this was the first healthygamer video I watched. I am proud to say that I have grown soo much after watching Dr.K and self evaluating . I love this community
Jack has a great perspective on a lot of things. I love how he questions a lot of what he does and how he lives, as well as his self-awareness and hard truth bombs. I'm still watching the video, but I've already gained a lot of different perspectives from the both of you. Thank you for making these videos :)
Seán has always been one of my favorite youtubers. He is genuinely one of the nicest and down to earth people I've seen on the platform. No matter what kind of content he is making, he is always positive and kind towards others. Such kindness from others is so important for young kids and teens to see as they try to figure out who they are and who they want to be.
Don't forget, there doesn't have to be something inherently "wrong" for you to go to therapy. You don't have to be already broken or in the process of breaking to start therapy. You can be whole and happy and still benefit from therapy
@@VioletEmerald Therapy provides insight into how our individual minds work. The pursuit to understand "nian" (the "understanding" concept Dr. K described in this session) can help us learn how to be better versions of ourselves as well as be prepared for life's future challenges. As human beings, nobody is omniscient, so the pursuit of understanding will always be beneficial to us; always be the learner because our education never truly ends.
More importantly, it's often not easy to distinguish between being whole and happy, and feeling kinda "whole and happy". Because most people who actually struggle will enter therapy with the conviction that everything should be fine, and that everything is kinda fine... but that something is wrong in some weird anyways.
That whole game is about fighting literal giants so it's interesting to think that this issue is probably related to his love of the game subconsciously.
Myself and Jack live in the same area and we bumped paths when we were in our late teens a couple of times. He's really hit it out of the park with his success, fair play to him. That said it's hard to hear him talk about his struggles and not be able to be there for him. He's a brilliant representative for the gaming community.
It's refreshing to see Sean allowing himself to trust open up & at the same time maintain boundaries with others. ESPECIALLY his fans. Working in the public eye is a tough yet very soul strengthening lesson about self love balanced with service to others.💚🍀💚🍀
I rarely listen to entire vods because I get bored very easily, but this one right here was an exception. I really liked the way the conversation flowed and the themes that were touched upon. My fave quotes were the one about finding "consistent inner happiness" and "if you stop the overcompensation then you can actually fix the problem". That last one is definitely giving me much to think right now. Thank you!!!
@@ew4645 I know he probably has a lot of heavy stuff to talk about, but so do a lot of people that came on to the show, so it's not as delicate of a situation as you might think. Plus he is pretty open about his struggles and anxiety without expectation
The conversation about not being heard and being talked over was something I really needed to hear, and has helped me understand more of why I spent nearly 15 years only speaking when spoken to. Fantastic video 🙏🏻
You know, I've seen Jack for a while now, since I was 12 o 13 maybe. And, I would say that he raised me in a since, the person that I am today is a reflection of the subtle things he said or did, for example the way he was so nice and kind, really made my young self try to be more like him. However I kind of shifted to other content as a teen and wasn't really present when he did all the tour stuff and interviewing apparently, etc. I'm currently watching some of his new videos (some past series like the detroit become human) and some streams and highlights of these past years. At first it was strange... I missed that green headed irish man who screamed like there wasn't a tomorrow. But it helped me understand the person, Sean. Seeing how, just like everybody, the phases that we go through as people change, and we as people also change. It helped me to try not to idealize the content creators (not only youtubers or streamers, but also musicians, actores, etc) that I admire and start treating them more like people, trying to be more empathic. Maybe in a couple of years Sean will have another hair color, and maybe he won't scream at all, but I'm thankful for the things I've learned from him, and hope that no matter what happens, he can be able to find love a truly peaceful and happy life. I hope everybody who reads this does.
damn this really me. Been watching since the turbo dismount days, stopped watching during teens and now going back and watching his lets plays of god of war and stuff and i prefer the current him
I'm 32 and managed to scrape up a bachelor's in psychology during 11 years of struggling. Now learning to be a programmer and got a drive for it like nothing else before. We can figure this out, better late than never!
@@maaria_w I feel so good about doing it. getting better at it has been so much more fulfilling. Not that I did not enjoy psychology or enjoy learning it. I hope your programming goes amazingly,.
@@sbsftw4232 Chat from the outside is very nice yes but it also feels very genuine when Dr. K focuses solely on the person his with rather than reading chat.
Imagine going to a therapist and the therapist interrupts you in the middle of you crying about how your dad never loved you and says that they have to listen to a voice message sent to them by someone and just plays it and sends one back. That'd be incredibly disrespectful, you'd be looking around the room for a hidden camera or you'd just stand up and leave. That's the level of disrespect I'd imagine I'd feel if he was reading Chat while talking with me. I feel like it should be a given to not do that.
@@patrickstar1134 Jack streams on Twitch regularly (except for the past couple of weeks for obvious reasons), I feel like you miss a lot of fun content if you don't watch his streams because he only really uploads among us stream highlights and single player games like hitman on his channel. Doctor K's guests usually don't stream while talking to him though so they wouldn't have a chat to look at anyway
Stan culture was named for the Eminem song Stan! This song illustrates the dark side of fandom and it’s possible repercussions when it is taken to it extreme.
Fucking finally someone says it. What stans are now is mostly ok with some certain unhealthy parts. But if go all the way back to the root of it, the whole term is based off a mentally unstable fan that did something horrible, and that can't be forgotten
@@PeataPoeet to be 100% honest I didn’t really understand the definition of “stan” for a while when I was younger so I proudly called myself a stan but that’s changed now. I unfortunately see people in my fandoms who actually are stans but don’t believe they are. smh it’s weird how it can be twisted
I remember hating jack at first. I don't watch his videos on a regular basis but I imagine it's the persona that bothered me. Now that he's more genuine? Him and many of the other veteran youtubers at this point are WAAAY more appealing to me than all these newer content creators who are purely business minded... and usually fake as fuck making fortnight videos etc
WE'RE ALWAYS HERE FOR JACK - he's a genuine person regardless of his flaws. He's not perfect yet to us his personality and his videos shows how much of a nice person he can be. This is not literally just saying to support him. But if you see how he is as a person, he's wonderful.
I love Jack a lot, you can always tell he wants to be the best version of himself. I love how informative this conversation was, I learnt some really useful concepts :D
I fear what happened to Jack on a daily basis. I have panic attacks sometimes, even right now I'm feeling weird inside, about my parents passing. When he said that his parents never really vocalized their love I literally felt that in my chest. Currently driving down the highway, and it's times like this that I always imagine that what if I die and I never tell them again. It really makes you think about life differently, especially when you never feel like you say it enough. The thought of, what if I never see them again going through your mind. I can't understand what the pain is going through, and I'm not very excited to go through it myself. I just hope that he's gotten through it okay.
This man's poise, introspection, eloquence, and calm humor are fully statted out. I'm not really familiar with his character/content (outside seeing him popup in Free Guy), but I'm definitely rooting for him as a human & by extension a content creator.
These vods are so useful for me for just self-education and better understanding of myself and others, I'm so glad you do these things online and publicly and so thankful so many streamers are willing to open up like this
I feel so bad for Jack, he usually posts highly often and the second he told us he was going on break, everyone decided to throw a fit over it, like give the man a break. And the fact he still posts for us even though his father passed away shatters my heart, I feel so bad for him. :(
when he said that being talked over makes him feel devalued and like what he said didn't matter, that hit me so hard. My boyfriend struggles to understand this and will often interrupt me or cut me off as a way of "adding to the conversation". I tell him that when he does that it makes me feel like what I wanted to say doesn't matter or isn't important enough to listen to, and he just calls me sensitive or tell me that I just don't know how conversations work. hearing someone else say exactly how I felt was so validating.
@@v1ped lol it’s been a year since my comment. We broke up shortly after this, but he’s getting some help with mental health issues and we’re both doing better 👍
never seen a dr k stream before but I really enjoyed this! i loved the rapport between sean and dr k, and as a hindu i also appreciated him sharing concepts from vedic philosophy and buddhism, i've heard most of those terms before but never really had them explained to me. this was a really nice chat, thanks so much for organising and sharing :)
This was a wonderfully strange video for me to watch. I adore Jack, I watch him all the time, and I really respect Dr. K and his aim to help gamers and streamers. The strange part is that I never pictured the two doing a video together, but the wonderful is that Jack is so open that this would have been so helpful to him on so many levels, but also this will help so many people in such similar positions as Jack. I am also struggling with some of this sort stuff and I love how helpful the two of these came together. It is truly awesome. Thank you both ♡♡
Self-analysis and introspection are incredibly important. I can say with certainty that I would not be alive if I didnt look at myself every ones in a while. Its as important as eating. Even if you don't feel like there is anything to reflect upon. That just means you don't see it yet and it might take a long time to admit to yourself things like for example your own flaws. That is okay.
But Introspection can come with an double edge sword that is caring too much about other ppl think, specially in social media age, where ppl show an mask of themselfs, of what ppl would want to see them to be like, leads to a lot comparison that can also leads to anxiety and depression.
I was actively avoiding big YT channels such as Jacksepticeye but ever since he collaborated with Game Grums I really enjoy him, so i tried to watch some of his content and he acted nothing like I saw with GG. The only video I saw of his channel was the interview with Arin, it felt so chill, so genuine. Listening about his life and how this character he developed and how it affected him and how negatively reacted his followers really breaks my heart. Maybe it's just me for not liking that explosive UA-camr style, but please Jack, do anything that makes you happy ❤️
Seeing people joke and meme about Jack's Dad's passing actually hurts my soul. I know twitter was an -interesting- social media. But, to see people do that?. What's wrong with people?
Jack, if you see this, there are many people who may have discovered you through others but love your content for you. I love your personality, it's so comforting to me just how you are, how you talk to people during streams, how you care for your youtube friends, I was genuinely thinking the other day I would love to have that special ability to be so likeable, it's probably because I was always the blunt one and hard to express any feelings one and not be overly friendly, that I always admired how friendly you can be and how genuine it feels
I love this! I will always love all of Jacksepticeyes content. It makes me really happy to see him be able to express himself as exactly who he is. His perspective on life and his personality itself is always so refreshing. I’m thankful he did this video because I can imagine how difficult it could be to feel like you’re under a microscope constantly and then to also open up to someone with the intention of being open and analytical of yourself with self improvement as a goal could be that much more challenging. Dr. K is so great too I’m new to watching him but I’m really enjoying his videos!
this connects too much, i have the exact same issue of not being listened and being like a ghost in the room. like sean it was school when i was always weak with other people like when in school sport things where 2 people pick teams im always last for some reason, and that made me never want to be a part of soccer/basketball things and my middle school gym teacher acknowledges that and tells me to compete while i would just watch. with school im finding recently (im in 11th grade high school now) that everyday i have to get up social stairs and they slowly reset every day so in my school group i have to talk individually with people to gain notability then after a couple months i can reliably call their name to say something, even further when i impress them with my skills that they say are better than others in the group its still just a burst of conversation then that vanishes and overall it makes trying to talk a competition of who can get as many interactions.
this is the first time I've come across this channel (through jack). I think this is going to be a fun weekend to reflect and get myself back on rails after a rough week. Keep up the good work!
Man, I would love to have a discussion similar to this one with you. (I'm not famous of course, but especially when you started talking about Sean's childhood it kind of hit me that I could definatley understand myself more if someone professional gave their perspective or the good old "What they are hearing"
I watched this live but rewatching this makes me realize how closely Jack observes people around him, and how deeply he thinks about their experiences and point of views. I kind of do that too. There are some very specific things I relate to when it comes to Jack's experiences, but they are almost always from a different perspective (naturally :P). I hope they do a part 2, because there are a lot of things I would love to hear them talk about.
I live for these kinds of talks as well! Very thoughtful conversation. It was interesting to me how they brought up being talked over. I noticed earlier in their chat there were a couple times on accident Dr.K talked over Sean or started a sentence but Sean completed his thoughts anyway. I think that shows growth on Sean's part possibly. 💗
This meditation technique was nice. Had a tingling sensation at all times between my eyebrows and once I covered my eyes with palms and removed them before opening saw a black circle and white outline around it.
Damn.. Been watching Jack for about a year now. And his latest video helped me find this channel at even my own vulnerable time rn in life. Therapy is healing, definitely helps when you got a guy who knows what hes doing. Thanks Doc for doing what you do for people.
may I also say thank you to this channel I understand that it isn't meant to be a therapy and it's not meant to help us as viewers with our mental health issues. in saying that though I would like to point out your chats and other guests talks are very eye opening and get one thinking. inward thought is a form of therapy.
Oh my god, this is the perfect video ive been looking for man... "The root of suffering is attachment to expectation" ive heared this in one of Dr.k s old videos but i forgot and ive been searching fotlr it for months now, im so happy that this video and these people exist.
Jack is great and I am happy to see him at a stage where he really started wanting to know about himself and his inner world. This is coming to more and more people nowadays - the self reflection and as we are turning towards our inner world we will collectively strive to bigger self awareness and understanding of who we truly are.
Very interesting conversation. Jack seems to be a very down-to-earth and reflective person. The last part where they were talking about insecurities was brilliant.
I want to tie two things together in this video. When Seán explains the feeling "Do they know who I am?" That is the worm speaking and he is walking around in public as Jack Septiceye. But if he separates himself from his channel and presents himself as Seán, the question could turn into "Does that person know about the content that I create?" In debate, they talk about attacking the subject at hand, not the person. Feel better soon Seán, With love Ricky Vestal :)
It's nice to see someone I've admired so much, for so long - get some unselfish affirmation in the places that he needs it most. It's so freaking fantastic bc I know im not qualified and he was still tended to with so much responsibility and intelligent analysis. So thanks for helping out my friend and teaching me a multitude.
Never seen this channel before. The dude on the left’s ability to so well connect his knowledge with what he’s hearing is a pleasure. The dude on the right has a dope intuition and impressive logic. Good shit!
Dr. K talks about enlightenment and ending suffering. But that seems to be a way of coping. Like a natural antidepressant that numbs things and makes them bearable. I would love to hear his thoughts on Robert Frost’s poem “Reluctance”. Especially the last stanza- “Ah, when to the heart of man Was it ever less than a treason To go with the drift of things, To yield with grace to reason, And bow and accept the end Of a love or a season?”

I’ve noticed that most people kind of roll with any suggestion Dr. K brings up but jack actually had a lot of this stuff already thought out for himself.
its so weird seeing jacksepticeye & dr.k in the same title
Same with daily dose of internet
Facts but I do appreciate the analysis on Jack
I was a Jacksepticeye fan and this was the first healthygamer video I watched. I am proud to say that I have grown soo much after watching Dr.K and self evaluating . I love this community
Jack has a great perspective on a lot of things. I love how he questions a lot of what he does and how he lives, as well as his self-awareness and hard truth bombs. I'm still watching the video, but I've already gained a lot of different perspectives from the both of you.
Thank you for making these videos :)
Seán has always been one of my favorite youtubers. He is genuinely one of the nicest and down to earth people I've seen on the platform. No matter what kind of content he is making, he is always positive and kind towards others. Such kindness from others is so important for young kids and teens to see as they try to figure out who they are and who they want to be.
Don't forget, there doesn't have to be something inherently "wrong" for you to go to therapy. You don't have to be already broken or in the process of breaking to start therapy. You can be whole and happy and still benefit from therapy
Why would therapy benefit someone who feels whole *and* happy... ?
@@VioletEmerald Therapy provides insight into how our individual minds work. The pursuit to understand "nian" (the "understanding" concept Dr. K described in this session) can help us learn how to be better versions of ourselves as well as be prepared for life's future challenges. As human beings, nobody is omniscient, so the pursuit of understanding will always be beneficial to us; always be the learner because our education never truly ends.
More importantly, it's often not easy to distinguish between being whole and happy, and feeling kinda "whole and happy". Because most people who actually struggle will enter therapy with the conviction that everything should be fine, and that everything is kinda fine... but that something is wrong in some weird anyways.
@@VioletEmeraldIt’s about understanding yourself and your mind better
Yeah... can't afford that without a good reason lol
"You become a character in people's lives rather than a person." Wow, I totally felt like that without realising..
It's funny that they kept coming back to "standing in the shadows of giants" since Shadow of the Colossus is Jack's favorite video game
Really? He's got good taste.
That whole game is about fighting literal giants so it's interesting to think that this issue is probably related to his love of the game subconsciously.
that's very interesting, I never thought about that, that might be related to him subconsciously
I thought about that too
Myself and Jack live in the same area and we bumped paths when we were in our late teens a couple of times.
He's really hit it out of the park with his success, fair play to him. That said it's hard to hear him talk about his struggles and not be able to be there for him. He's a brilliant representative for the gaming community.
It's refreshing to see Sean allowing himself to trust open up & at the same time maintain boundaries with others. ESPECIALLY his fans. Working in the public eye is a tough yet very soul strengthening lesson about self love balanced with service to others.💚🍀💚🍀
I rarely listen to entire vods because I get bored very easily, but this one right here was an exception. I really liked the way the conversation flowed and the themes that were touched upon. My fave quotes were the one about finding "consistent inner happiness" and "if you stop the overcompensation then you can actually fix the problem". That last one is definitely giving me much to think right now. Thank you!!!
I'd love to hear Corpse chat with Dr. K!
Why?
That would be amazing I think corpse has a lot to say.
I feel like his situation might be a bit too delicate to be aired out in front of everyone like this
@@ew4645 I agree. I don't think any of us should even CONSIDER him doing public dissection like this with ANY of the faceless streamers or creators.
@@ew4645 I know he probably has a lot of heavy stuff to talk about, but so do a lot of people that came on to the show, so it's not as delicate of a situation as you might think. Plus he is pretty open about his struggles and anxiety without expectation
The conversation about not being heard and being talked over was something I really needed to hear, and has helped me understand more of why I spent nearly 15 years only speaking when spoken to.
Fantastic video 🙏🏻
I hope him and his family are doing well. Missed his humor during these weird times of this 2019-Covid Era. :)
You know, I've seen Jack for a while now, since I was 12 o 13 maybe. And, I would say that he raised me in a since, the person that I am today is a reflection of the subtle things he said or did, for example the way he was so nice and kind, really made my young self try to be more like him. However I kind of shifted to other content as a teen and wasn't really present when he did all the tour stuff and interviewing apparently, etc. I'm currently watching some of his new videos (some past series like the detroit become human) and some streams and highlights of these past years. At first it was strange... I missed that green headed irish man who screamed like there wasn't a tomorrow. But it helped me understand the person, Sean. Seeing how, just like everybody, the phases that we go through as people change, and we as people also change. It helped me to try not to idealize the content creators (not only youtubers or streamers, but also musicians, actores, etc) that I admire and start treating them more like people, trying to be more empathic. Maybe in a couple of years Sean will have another hair color, and maybe he won't scream at all, but I'm thankful for the things I've learned from him, and hope that no matter what happens, he can be able to find love a truly peaceful and happy life. I hope everybody who reads this does.
Dude, that's sooo spot on with my life around his channel!
damn this really me. Been watching since the turbo dismount days, stopped watching during teens and now going back and watching his lets plays of god of war and stuff and i prefer the current him
i love this cause I'm 34 just figuring my shit out... I was in psychology and now working towards what i wanted to be animation
I wish you the best of luck!
I'm 32 and managed to scrape up a bachelor's in psychology during 11 years of struggling. Now learning to be a programmer and got a drive for it like nothing else before. We can figure this out, better late than never!
@@artofadval thank you!
@@maaria_w I feel so good about doing it. getting better at it has been so much more fulfilling. Not that I did not enjoy psychology or enjoy learning it. I hope your programming goes amazingly,.
@@maaria_w For sure! I'm 30 and working on a bachelors for CS. I'm sure you can do it to!
I don't watch Dr k a lot but honestly here it feels welcoming that Dr K is not watching his chat and actually listening to people.
No chat really adds to the genuine feel of these videos. It really seems like you're in the room for these sessions. I love it.
@@sbsftw4232 Chat from the outside is very nice yes but it also feels very genuine when Dr. K focuses solely on the person his with rather than reading chat.
Imagine going to a therapist and the therapist interrupts you in the middle of you crying about how your dad never loved you and says that they have to listen to a voice message sent to them by someone and just plays it and sends one back.
That'd be incredibly disrespectful, you'd be looking around the room for a hidden camera or you'd just stand up and leave.
That's the level of disrespect I'd imagine I'd feel if he was reading Chat while talking with me.
I feel like it should be a given to not do that.
I just have to say that Jack is UA-camr not a Twitch streamer so he doesn't have a chat to look to so that kinda mirrors in Dr K too i think.
@@patrickstar1134 Jack streams on Twitch regularly (except for the past couple of weeks for obvious reasons), I feel like you miss a lot of fun content if you don't watch his streams because he only really uploads among us stream highlights and single player games like hitman on his channel. Doctor K's guests usually don't stream while talking to him though so they wouldn't have a chat to look at anyway
I would love to see disguisedtoast !! (edit: 2 months later and its happening guys- may 12th )
I would love to see sykkuno
He wouldn’t tho
Toast said he would cry too much
Ooof. That'd be... Interesting. Maybe a couple of private sessions first would be nice tho 😂
@@TheIonizator yeah but I don’t think that’s a bad thing, sad that he sees it that way
41:45 the way you gas up Jack here is so fricking wholesome. Loved the whole conversation! I will surely keep an eye on this format.
Stan culture was named for the Eminem song Stan! This song illustrates the dark side of fandom and it’s possible repercussions when it is taken to it extreme.
Fucking finally someone says it.
What stans are now is mostly ok with some certain unhealthy parts. But if go all the way back to the root of it, the whole term is based off a mentally unstable fan that did something horrible, and that can't be forgotten
@@PeataPoeet to be 100% honest I didn’t really understand the definition of “stan” for a while when I was younger so I proudly called myself a stan but that’s changed now. I unfortunately see people in my fandoms who actually are stans but don’t believe they are. smh it’s weird how it can be twisted
Ashley Tamura when I was younger like Stan culture hasn't only been around for like 5 years.
@@serentique sorry I don’t think I understand what you mean by that?
I remember hating jack at first. I don't watch his videos on a regular basis but I imagine it's the persona that bothered me.
Now that he's more genuine? Him and many of the other veteran youtubers at this point are WAAAY more appealing to me than all these newer content creators who are purely business minded... and usually fake as fuck making fortnight videos etc
Eh they’re still annoying
@@CaptainFracture na
@@forcedge2302 You've misunderstood this comment so unbelievably stupidly.
This is one of the reasons i loved watching vinesauce. There's characters made out of them but they honestly are just being themselves.
I love how thoughtful and reflecting Jack is ❤
loved the conversation and the chemistry
WE'RE ALWAYS HERE FOR JACK - he's a genuine person regardless of his flaws. He's not perfect yet to us his personality and his videos shows how much of a nice person he can be. This is not literally just saying to support him. But if you see how he is as a person, he's wonderful.
I love Jack a lot, you can always tell he wants to be the best version of himself. I love how informative this conversation was, I learnt some really useful concepts :D
I fear what happened to Jack on a daily basis. I have panic attacks sometimes, even right now I'm feeling weird inside, about my parents passing. When he said that his parents never really vocalized their love I literally felt that in my chest. Currently driving down the highway, and it's times like this that I always imagine that what if I die and I never tell them again. It really makes you think about life differently, especially when you never feel like you say it enough. The thought of, what if I never see them again going through your mind. I can't understand what the pain is going through, and I'm not very excited to go through it myself. I just hope that he's gotten through it okay.
Happy to see Dr. K's name is reaching the big guys!
This man's poise, introspection, eloquence, and calm humor are fully statted out. I'm not really familiar with his character/content (outside seeing him popup in Free Guy), but I'm definitely rooting for him as a human & by extension a content creator.
These vods are so useful for me for just self-education and better understanding of myself and others, I'm so glad you do these things online and publicly and so thankful so many streamers are willing to open up like this
I feel so bad for Jack, he usually posts highly often and the second he told us he was going on break, everyone decided to throw a fit over it, like give the man a break. And the fact he still posts for us even though his father passed away shatters my heart, I feel so bad for him. :(
Sadly😔
when he said that being talked over makes him feel devalued and like what he said didn't matter, that hit me so hard. My boyfriend struggles to understand this and will often interrupt me or cut me off as a way of "adding to the conversation". I tell him that when he does that it makes me feel like what I wanted to say doesn't matter or isn't important enough to listen to, and he just calls me sensitive or tell me that I just don't know how conversations work. hearing someone else say exactly how I felt was so validating.
are you guys still together? lol how did things go
@@v1ped lol it’s been a year since my comment. We broke up shortly after this, but he’s getting some help with mental health issues and we’re both doing better 👍
Yo these Interviews are acctually insane, with this Interview i cant really relate but it ist just very informative an i like it a lot.
Big up Dr.K
Its so crazy because i feel like I was able to relate with this interview so much more compared to some others lol
never seen a dr k stream before but I really enjoyed this! i loved the rapport between sean and dr k, and as a hindu i also appreciated him sharing concepts from vedic philosophy and buddhism, i've heard most of those terms before but never really had them explained to me. this was a really nice chat, thanks so much for organising and sharing :)
Didn't know about the passing of his father, it's been years since I've watched Jack's channel.
check his yt channel, he made a vid abt it.
it happened just recently
he passed away at the end of January
This was a wonderfully strange video for me to watch. I adore Jack, I watch him all the time, and I really respect Dr. K and his aim to help gamers and streamers.
The strange part is that I never pictured the two doing a video together, but the wonderful is that Jack is so open that this would have been so helpful to him on so many levels, but also this will help so many people in such similar positions as Jack. I am also struggling with some of this sort stuff and I love how helpful the two of these came together. It is truly awesome. Thank you both ♡♡
Self-analysis and introspection are incredibly important.
I can say with certainty that I would not be alive if I didnt look at myself every ones in a while.
Its as important as eating.
Even if you don't feel like there is anything to reflect upon. That just means you don't see it yet and it might take a long time to admit to yourself things like for example your own flaws.
That is okay.
But Introspection can come with an double edge sword that is caring too much about other ppl think, specially in social media age, where ppl show an mask of themselfs, of what ppl would want to see them to be like, leads to a lot comparison that can also leads to anxiety and depression.
Dr. K this really does help, my most sincere thank you!
I was actively avoiding big YT channels such as Jacksepticeye but ever since he collaborated with Game Grums I really enjoy him, so i tried to watch some of his content and he acted nothing like I saw with GG. The only video I saw of his channel was the interview with Arin, it felt so chill, so genuine.
Listening about his life and how this character he developed and how it affected him and how negatively reacted his followers really breaks my heart.
Maybe it's just me for not liking that explosive UA-camr style, but please Jack, do anything that makes you happy ❤️
Seeing people joke and meme about Jack's Dad's passing actually hurts my soul. I know twitter was an -interesting- social media. But, to see people do that?. What's wrong with people?
The worse Something is, the more we need Help coping. And for many thats Humor even if its black/gallows humor
Jack, if you see this, there are many people who may have discovered you through others but love your content for you. I love your personality, it's so comforting to me just how you are, how you talk to people during streams, how you care for your youtube friends, I was genuinely thinking the other day I would love to have that special ability to be so likeable, it's probably because I was always the blunt one and hard to express any feelings one and not be overly friendly, that I always admired how friendly you can be and how genuine it feels
I love this! I will always love all of Jacksepticeyes content. It makes me really happy to see him be able to express himself as exactly who he is. His perspective on life and his personality itself is always so refreshing. I’m thankful he did this video because I can imagine how difficult it could be to feel like you’re under a microscope constantly and then to also open up to someone with the intention of being open and analytical of yourself with self improvement as a goal could be that much more challenging. Dr. K is so great too I’m new to watching him but I’m really enjoying his videos!
i always appreciate seeing jack around, i hope he's doing alright
this connects too much, i have the exact same issue of not being listened and being like a ghost in the room. like sean it was school when i was always weak with other people like when in school sport things where 2 people pick teams im always last for some reason, and that made me never want to be a part of soccer/basketball things and my middle school gym teacher acknowledges that and tells me to compete while i would just watch. with school im finding recently (im in 11th grade high school now) that everyday i have to get up social stairs and they slowly reset every day so in my school group i have to talk individually with people to gain notability then after a couple months i can reliably call their name to say something, even further when i impress them with my skills that they say are better than others in the group its still just a burst of conversation then that vanishes and overall it makes trying to talk a competition of who can get as many interactions.
i love how even the fist line is an echo of the entire subject matter.
this is the first time I've come across this channel (through jack). I think this is going to be a fun weekend to reflect and get myself back on rails after a rough week. Keep up the good work!
Jack is so emotionally intelligent! love it! :)
Oh boy oh boy have I been looking forward to this
the conversation was so entertaining it ended so quickly POG
Man, I would love to have a discussion similar to this one with you. (I'm not famous of course, but especially when you started talking about Sean's childhood it kind of hit me that I could definatley understand myself more if someone professional gave their perspective or the good old "What they are hearing"
I watched this live but rewatching this makes me realize how closely Jack observes people around him, and how deeply he thinks about their experiences and point of views. I kind of do that too. There are some very specific things I relate to when it comes to Jack's experiences, but they are almost always from a different perspective (naturally :P). I hope they do a part 2, because there are a lot of things I would love to hear them talk about.
Oh, man... Thank You for reaching out to Jack, or Vice Versa (💚 Jack!), Dr. K.
Jack's one hell of a man
I live for these kinds of talks as well! Very thoughtful conversation. It was interesting to me how they brought up being talked over. I noticed earlier in their chat there were a couple times on accident Dr.K talked over Sean or started a sentence but Sean completed his thoughts anyway. I think that shows growth on Sean's part possibly. 💗
Man, the more I listen to Dr.K, the more I think I would never be able to find a psychologist so good.. 1:23:18
This video could geniunely be life changing to many people, i love it.
This meditation technique was nice. Had a tingling sensation at all times between my eyebrows and once I covered my eyes with palms and removed them before opening saw a black circle and white outline around it.
This is a collab I never expected but I’m so happy about it 💖
WOAH I never thought I would see this crossover so soon! This is awesome 😎
Damn.. Been watching Jack for about a year now. And his latest video helped me find this channel at even my own vulnerable time rn in life. Therapy is healing, definitely helps when you got a guy who knows what hes doing. Thanks Doc for doing what you do for people.
I hope he is feeling better now. Time to hunker down and have a watch.
I want a part 2 :) enjoyed their conversation so much
may I also say thank you to this channel I understand that it isn't meant to be a therapy and it's not meant to help us as viewers with our mental health issues. in saying that though I would like to point out your chats and other guests talks are very eye opening and get one thinking. inward thought is a form of therapy.
Oh my god, this is the perfect video ive been looking for man... "The root of suffering is attachment to expectation" ive heared this in one of Dr.k s old videos but i forgot and ive been searching fotlr it for months now, im so happy that this video and these people exist.
Damn, now i really wanna see pewds talking with dr.k about marcus aurelius view and other concepts of life ...
I love those videos.
I've watched a bit of his content before, but it's nice to hear him in this way. He seems pretty clued in and is well spoken.
Start of Meditation: 1:34:45
(This is mainly for myself cuz I couldn’t find a comment with it… if it helps someone else, I’m glad)
Jack is great and I am happy to see him at a stage where he really started wanting to know about himself and his inner world. This is coming to more and more people nowadays - the self reflection and as we are turning towards our inner world we will collectively strive to bigger self awareness and understanding of who we truly are.
Very interesting conversation. Jack seems to be a very down-to-earth and reflective person. The last part where they were talking about insecurities was brilliant.
I want to tie two things together in this video.
When Seán explains the feeling "Do they know who I am?" That is the worm speaking and he is walking around in public as Jack Septiceye. But if he separates himself from his channel and presents himself as Seán, the question could turn into "Does that person know about the content that I create?"
In debate, they talk about attacking the subject at hand, not the person.
Feel better soon Seán,
With love Ricky Vestal :)
Pls. Get the Big Guy Jschlatt here would be really interesting the other side of him...
of course if he wants to!
I would love this show in podcast form

The Best Dr k discussion I've seen yet.
There’s so many great takeaways from this one.
That meditation at the end was beautiful
It's nice to see someone I've admired so much, for so long - get some unselfish affirmation in the places that he needs it most. It's so freaking fantastic bc I know im not qualified and he was still tended to with so much responsibility and intelligent analysis. So thanks for helping out my friend and teaching me a multitude.
I'd love Corpse to be on Healthy Gamer, talk about how to cope with his anxiety so he could feel better and obviously to listen to his amazing voice
I think Corpse could bring up soooo much good insight just from what he shares on his UA-cam but he had to be ready to talk so vulnerably
only watched a few of his streams before and i can genuinely say this dude is well respected and i wouldn’t understand how people can hate him
Never seen this channel before. The dude on the left’s ability to so well connect his knowledge with what he’s hearing is a pleasure. The dude on the right has a dope intuition and impressive logic. Good shit!
you don't know the dude on the right?
55:17 Dr.K going straight to the point.
He was like Jack cut the shit😂😂
Dr. K talks about enlightenment and ending suffering. But that seems to be a way of coping. Like a natural antidepressant that numbs things and makes them bearable. I would love to hear his thoughts on Robert Frost’s poem “Reluctance”. Especially the last stanza-
“Ah, when to the heart of man
Was it ever less than a treason
To go with the drift of things,
To yield with grace to reason,
And bow and accept the end
Of a love or a season?”
These videos are so good. Love ya Dr. k and Jackyboy!
