- Ladies and gentlemen, I am extremely,
extremely confused about Amberlynn Reid
and I really, really need your help.
(gentle upbeat music)
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's 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 you're into that kind of stuff
make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell,
because I make a ton of videos.
I actually think I'm making three videos today, alright?
But like, this is just something that's been on my mind
for a long time and like I need
to talk to you guys about it.
I need to talk to you guys about it.
This video, for all of my loyal subscribers,
like this video's gonna be different.
It's gonna be a little different, okay?
We're gonna be talking about mental health,
we're gonna be talking about bullying,
we're gonna be talking about what my channel is.
I was actually going to make this a Patreon only video,
but like I really needed to make this,
like just a public video, because I'm confused.
Like, the mostly highly requested YouTuber
that I talk about is Amberlynn Reid, alright?
I have literally never watched one of her videos.
Even to this day,
I have never watched one of her videos, okay?
So, if you're for some kind of tea or anything like that,
like sorry, thanks for coming by,
subscribe, ring the notification bell, alright.
But anyways, I'm curious and I need your input.
So, what I try to do with my channel,
which is one of the reasons my channel
is growing in my opinion,
is I try to take different topics from the YouTube community
I just said this in the intro,
and try to teach you how to improve
your mental and emotional well being.
I'm trying to find certain things that you could relate to
and then teach you like, hey this is probably happening
in your own life, like what's going on?
But, I get a lot of suggestions.
I get suggestions left and right.
And I don't, like I said,
I don't know anything about Amberlynn Reid,
but it seems like she's a very polarizing YouTuber.
It seems like a lot of people
have very strong opinions about her.
Seems like a lot of people judge her.
And I'm sitting here and I can't,
and I might be completely wrong,
and if I am wrong, let me know down in the comments.
Like, I hope my comments section blows up
and you guys can explain this to me,
but what this feels like to me
and again, I might be wrong, is like,
do people come to my channel and they're like,
okay Chris you're a mental health channel,
we want you to analyze somebody
who we think is really mentally screwed up.
Because if that's what you think I do here,
you mistaken, alright?
I think the most I know about Amberlynn Reid
was Peter Monn made a video about her a few weeks ago,
maybe two or three weeks ago, and I watched it.
And a lot of the, you know what he was saying,
it kinda made sense, he said he was a fan,
but he was talking about how like
people hate watch her and all of that.
And I'm sitting here, I'm like it sounds
like she gets bullied a lot, you know?
And like, that confuses me.
Like I really I'm intrigued and I want to look into her
and make some videos on it, but I'm more intrigued by
the audience rather than her at this point.
Like, what's happening, you know?
What is going on?
And then, a video came up in my suggested,
maybe it because everybody keeps typing
the words Amberlynn Reid to me,
but it was like, it was just this like bully video.
It was just somebody like talking trash
about Amberlynn Reid and her weight for whatever reasons,
and it was like a really, I don't know,
it was a really quote on quote popular video
and I'm like that's messed up man
and don't get me wrong, I love watching channels
like Danny Gonzales and Drew Gooden.
Jarvis is one of my new favorite YouTubers.
I love that guy.
Jarvis, if for some reason you watch this video,
me and you need to collab.
Jarvis does some awesome stuff over there
and he talks a little bit about mental health
in an interesting way and I don't know
how many people pick up on that.
But anyways, I love those channels who
like kinda just like talk about and poke fun,
but they're like not malicious, you know?
And what I do here, although I give tough love a lot,
and I have strong opinions when I talk about people
like you know Tana Mongeau or you know,
just other YouTubers in you know in the public eye.
I might have strong opinions on it,
but I'm never here to do anything malicious
or mean or hurt anybody.
Like, even Keemstar, like I've made some videos
about Keemstar and,
he's made some really childish fat jokes about me,
but I mentioned in my last video like I love the guy,
but I just don't like him, right?
And like, I just I literally hope the best for everybody.
So, I don't ever want to come off malicious
and like, I wanted to kinda clear the air on this,
because I don't know if like some people come to my channel,
because they're like, oh snap what's Chris
gonna say about this YouTuber, right?
And I'm like no, that's not really what it is,
'cause these videos are for you.
Not to just spill tea or whatever on YouTubers.
That's not what I do.
So, if there are topics that are beneficial
that you think, like let me know down in the comments.
Like one of the things that is interesting
to me is that people have been saying
that there's a lot of enabling from the,
in the comments section of her videos.
That's interesting to me,
because I've talked a lot about enabling lately
and I would wanna touch on that.
Now one thing, if I'm being honest,
'cause I like to be honest on my channel,
one thing is, is that clearly,
I don't know if you have your camera
or like your video turned on right now,
but I have some weight issues of my own.
And it'll be difficult for me to talk about people enabling
her weight struggles (laughs) when I'm sitting here,
still continuously trying to lose weight,
but anyways, I hope I can get some clarity
from all of you, like leave comments down below.
Like I said, this video was a little weird.
I just wanted to get this out there,
get feedback from all of you,
I might do videos, but like again,
it's not here to be, I'm not here to bully anybody
or talk about anybody's mental illness in malicious way,
even though some people think it comes off like that.
So, let me know down in the comments below, alright?
But anyways, that's all I got for this video.
Quick little video.
