a lot of you have some pretty strong opinions about amberlynn reid but in
this video we're gonna ask is amberlynn reid a lost cause what is up everybody
this is Chris from the rewired soul where we talk about the problem but
focus on the solution and if you're new to my channel my channel is all about
mental health and what I like to do is pull different topics from the YouTube
community to try to teach you how to improve your mental and emotional
well-being so if any of that kind of stuff
make sure you subscribe and bring that notification belt because I'm making a
ton of videos and OH like so I made a video last week like I
mentioned in my video last week one of the most highly requested youtubers I've
been asked to make a video about is ambolyn rude so I made a video and oh
boy like first off thank you thank all of you thank you for providing me with
some insight and everything like that do you want to address some of the comments
real quick like some people like you need to do research you need to do
research and it's like I know like I plan on it but a lot of people missed
the mark of that video like I explained it pretty well that the video wasn't
necessarily about amberlynn reid I want to know your motives or what you think my
motives are but behind making a video so like just so you all know I'm in the
middle of writing like an anger management book I'm thinking about tyke
peddling it rewire your anger and then that way I can make a series like rewire
your own anyways let me know if you like that idea but like yo if ambulant weed
is ruining your day like make sure you pick up a copy of my book what I'm done
with it alright but but yeah like just basically
what I talked about in that video was like what like do you want me to just
make a video so there's another voice on YouTube saying that ambolyn Reed is like
an awful person like it's not what you want because that's not what I do
so in this video I want to talk about is ambolyn Reed a lost cause so you again
thank you you provided me with a lot of insight I did go down some amberlynn
Reed rabbit holes watching Omegon and Michael Petty (MichaelBePetty) there was another guy who did a reaction of my video
you know how I was confused about a week stuff and and yeah you guys give me some
insight I learned a lot more I learned about the allegations I learned about
you know the lies I learned about you know her weight-loss quote unquote stuff
and her continuing to do mukbangs and I learned all that stuff so I might make
more videos on it addressing different things but in this first video I want to
talk about something that came up in the comments quite a bit which is Anne
Amberlynn Reid is a lost cause Amberlynn Reid is too far gone Amberlynn
Reid it's just a lost cause so let's talk about that real quick
um do I think amberlynn Reid is a lost cause
absolutely not absolutely not and right now you might have hit that unsubscribe
button you might have done like the video but sorry everybody
if you've been around since my series on Jake Paul or Jake Pollan Shane Dawson
you know you know my stance on things I'm extremely empathetic I know that
there are a lot of reasons for why people are the way they are but there's
a difference between a reason and an excuse so what I'm saying is there is no
excuse for ambolyn Reid's behavior all right but there's a reason behind it
and what where this comes from is you guys gotta understand like you were
talking to somebody who is not a perfect human being by any stretch of the
imagination for a decade of my life I was a drug addict and an alcoholic I was
an awful awful person for a decade of my life now I will let you know this like
the things that Evelyn Reid has done those are not necessarily things I've
done but you gotta understand I have lied cheated stolen
I have broke my family's hearts over and over and over again I didn't see my son
for four months and part of my brain didn't even realize that that was a
problem right I am let down so many people in my life I was a scumbag I was
a piece of garbage okay and I am a complete opposite today I've been clean
and sober for six years I have worked extremely hard on myself to become a new
person so I never think anybody's too far gone and this is an important topic
this is an important topic to talk about okay because there are people in your
life right now who you think are too far gone you think this person is a lost
cause and man I often say that the only the only reason I'm around today is
because of one word and that word is hope okay hope is something I didn't
have my entire life my entire life I didn't have hope and something happened
six and a half years ago where I just had this little sliver this little
little sliver of hope and I want you to have this hope too that maybe just maybe
your life doesn't need to be the way that it is any longer right like that
doesn't mean it's gonna change tomorrow but we need to believe in that and other
people too we need to believe that other people can change
I'm not saying forgive everybody right away I'm not saying that you know we
should forgive and we you know convicted felon who's done like violent offenses
I'm not saying any of that but based on science and neuroplasticity I believe
that people can change now when it comes to someone like Amber Lynn Reed or if it
comes to your friend your family member like the drug addict or alcoholic in
your life that whoever it is can they change I think they can but the trick is
the trick here's a tricky thing are they willing to change alright because this
whole thing this whole thing it's all about willingness are you willing to
change are you willing to put in the work okay something that people ask me
all the time is how many people do you think are gonna relapse like when I was
working in drug and alcohol rehab center how many people do you think are gonna
relapse my honest answer 90% and people like oh my god Chris oh my god how can
you say that that's terrible no it's just me being a realist because
I know most people are stubborn they're not gonna do the things that we tell
them to do right so like that's what I want you to look at with yourself like I
always say at the beginning of every video we talk about the problem and
focus on it but focus on the solution and like some of you watching this right
now you're staying in the problem all you need all you need is a sliver of
willingness to change that's all you need just a little bit of willingness
just a tiny bit of willingness to get you to do something proactive right to
do something productive to do something that improves your mental health then
you got to figure out a way to keep that as a routine and keep that going slowly
but surely things will get better like y'all like please don't get it twisted
one of the reasons buddy this anger-management book first
is because even like the first two years maybe longer like after I got sober I
was still a raging hot mess I was still lying I was still screaming at people
like I was still a terrible person the only difference was that I wasn't
drinking or using drugs that was the only difference but through growing
through this process of all these different mental health aspects and I
try to teach you I became a better person
bit by bit by bit so the two things I want you to take away from this video is
one I do not think that you are last cause if you are watching this video I
don't think you're hopeless I don't think you're a lost cause I've seen
people at the bottom of the barrel turn their lives around now if you had seen
if you could even see half of the success stories that I've seen you'd
understand where I'm coming from right so the first thing is I don't think
you're hopeless the second thing is I don't think anybody in your life is
hopeless either all right I think a lot of people it takes a moment of clarity
and might take an intervention it might take something for them to do it but
that's why I make a lot of videos about enabling so you can help a little nudge
into the willingness direction alright anyways keep this video a little bit
shorter than usual under 10 minutes so let's talk do you what are your thoughts
do you ever feel hopeless wait if you do what are you gonna do about it here's my
tip by the way find people to inspire you find people who had a really rough
life find people who are doing better now and look up to them and see what
they did and model yourself after them all right that's all I got for you with
this video if you like this video give it a thumbs up if you think I'm a moron
feel free to give it a thumbs down but sorry I'm just an optimist baby
but that's all I got a huge thank you to everybody supporting the channel over on

notification bell make a ton of videos I will keep you updated on my anger
