The irony of wanting to be more unaware but not realizing that inner peace comes from being aware of your thoughts. Been there, done that. Ignorance is not bliss, it’s oblivion. 😅
i have schizoaffective disorder which is basically schizophrenia/a mood disorder. i am also a new mom w an almost 2 yo. was diagnosed ab 6 months ago. i also had those same stereotypes in my head before i was diagnosed. when in reality, the stuff you see on the news is just a small fraction of people living with the disorder. it’s possible to live a happy life as long as you’re taking care of your mental health. no matter how hard it is, i know i have a family who loves and supports me. and a daughter i would do anything in the world for. the judgement is unnecessary, we’re all human. all deserving of love 🩶
Thank you for sharing. Though my mother was delt a bad hand in life and didn't have the support she needed living with schizophrenia, I learned a lot about how disorders present differently in everyone even if it's similar symptoms. Sick of the "end all be all to insanity". We need to provide support 💜
THIS!!! I am *so* fucking tired of the "othering" that happens when people talk about mental health conditions. We're tired enough, we don't need stigma to *consistently* be reinforced
It’s so amazing to hear of people with this disorder that are living a healthy life. My ex partner had schizoaffective disorder and he was dangerous, self-destructive, codependent, and abusive. I urged him to get help and he would take his meds sometimes, but he would go through phases where he was angry and refused to take it. He did not want to take care of himself. I ended up having to leave, and I hope he ended up doing better eventually, but I have no idea what happened to him. He harassed me post breakup, so I had to block him everywhere. I now work in mental health (with a degree in neuroscience) so I know these stereotypes are not true for everyone, but even my view of the disorder is unfortunately tainted due to personal experience :/
@@sarahparr565 i completely understand your perspective because i have also had a partner with a mental disorder. he was the same. very abusive, self destructive, and refused to get help. but these disorders look different for everyone. before being diagnosed i was ignorant to what it really means for different people. now i know that its possible to be healthy and happy as long as you’re willing to put in the effort to care for yourself. because people cant help you, you have to be willing to help yourself. 🩶
Yo, i cheated through my public speaking class in college (it was online and i had my friend hold my cards behind my computer) and NOW I speak on stages in rooms of 600+ people as part of my job lol... It's terrifying but just remember: Nobody wants you to fail. And find what works for you!!! Some people have to memorize things, but if I do that I bomb because I'm too focused on/anxious about messing up. You've got this!
not a medical professional but i am majoring in psychology with an aim toward therapy. i would just like to say that the way schizophrenia was described in the reddit post was quite stigmatizing. i want to emphasize that while schizophrenia and other related disorders can absolutely be debilitating and life altering, it doesn’t mean the affected person is doomed to a life of insanity. with proper treatment, a persons condition and quality of life can be greatly improved. help is out there, you are not your diagnosis❤
I'm I wrong in saying that not ANYONE can get schizophrenia? When Morgan said anyone could get it from taking too many drugs, I was under the impression that you HAD to have the brain conditions for schizophrenia to have it be induced by drugs
I have schizophrenia (paranoid) and have spent years trying to destigmatize as much as I can. Thank you for saying this, I'm so tired of people thinking I'm living in lala land or going to hurt someone.
@@SamIAmWich If it means anything, I for one do not think you’re crazy/dangerous. I have mental illness I’m still trying to get diagnosed myself. I remember kids in middle school seeing me have an anxiety attack in the hallway, backing up all scared bc I was shaking. Don’t let people make you think you’re a monster, you’re not. You are not your disorder. No one is. 🩷
As someone with schizoaffective disorder with bipolar, I can say it's not the end all be all. I'm able to function at a fairly "normal" level. For the most part i live a stable life. I am on medication and it helps manage it to where it doesn't rule my life. Granted, i know it's not the same for everyone and some people don't want to be on meds or can't afford it because it's expensive af without insurance. But i am proof that schizophrenia stereotypes are not true, and i know multiple people with schizophrenia that are also able to live mostly normal lives. I hate the stereotypes so much since that's what most people think of when it comes to the disorder. There are people that do fall under the stereotypes, but not everyone. People need to be educated about it and all other mental illnesses as well. The stereotypes are so harmful, and it'd be. A better world if people took the time to research and understand mental illnesses.
When Chris asked how many serial killers are there that havent been caught remembered me of my psyquiatry teacher who to always said to not fear the psyquiatry patiens but the ppl out there roaming in the world unchecked
You guys have NO idea how much I love you 😭❤️ I’m a Two Hot Takes subscriber and remember when you guys did a collab a while back, love the energy. This just confirmed you guys are my fav duo. I love the morbid humor 😭 please do more content together!!!
I work in digestive health! Don’t trust cologard. Colon cancer is preventable. In 20 years of my clinic having 20 MDs, we’ve never had anything crazy happen. Get your screenings by 45 or earlier if you have a family history of colon cancer/polyps, or if you have stomach issues!!!! I always love when Morgan reminds everyone, it’s so so important.
can i ask, what do you consider stomach issues? i have gerd but don’t know if that’s associated with colon cancer. my grandma and my aunt had colon cancer, but it never spread so they were able to remove the cancer through surgery. my aunt was in her 50’s and my grandma was in her 70’s. i’m so paranoid about developing colon cancer so i just want to figure out when i should get screened. my doctor says not until 40 but i feel like I don’t want to risk anything. I’m 27 rn
@@Erin49694 that’s a great question! Although I said “stomach issues”, I don’t think GERD is associated with colon cancer. There is a risk that if it’s left untreated that it can lead to Barrett’s Esophagus, though, so definitely keep treating it!:) I’m talking mostly about lower abdominal pain, or constipation. Sometimes constipation can be a sign of a polyp blocking a BM, and polyps are what can develop into cancer. The general consensus right now is to get screened 10 years earlier than the first instances of family history of crc. There is an unknown reason why colon cancer is becoming more prevalent at younger ages. I don’t want to scare you at all, but if it is something that is feasible for you to do and would put your mind at ease, you can definitely share your concerns with a gastroenterologist like Morgan did and get a screening sooner. March is Colon Cancer Awareness Month so I just want to spread awareness for that! 100% talk to your doctor, though. Yes, I work in digestive health, but I am not involved in your specific health care, unlike your doctor:) I’m sorry for the essay, but I hope it was a little informative and I hope everything goes well for you!!
I have drug induced schizophrenia and it’s super fun knowing that I broke my own brain. After 4 years and no illegal drug use, I still hear voices at night. When I was still using, the voices were screaming in my head and now they are more of a whisper.
I'm sorry you have to deal with this. Idk if this will help but maybe try to think of it differently? So like what if you would have died from the drug use but now you have a constant reminder not to go back to it and it shows how strong you are that you're still here 🖤
I was 17 when Zoloft induced my schizophrenia. While on the meds was the worst time of my life. And now it's kind of a background thing I just deal with (except I have to avoid horror at all costs)
I feel as though Chris could have been more sensitive to the topic especially considering he is an avid marijuana smoker and absolutely could end up getting diagnosed via drug induce
For the public speaking -- giiiiirl in my mandatory coms class , the first speech was supposed to be three items that were important to us. I literally cried 😂😂😂 in front of the room,,, thinking i could talk ab my dad (he passed). I cried, took deep breaths, and finished my speech. The only outcome of this was a random jock bro in the class stayed after to give me a hug and say that took a lot of courage etc. If i can cry and still give the speech and pass and nooooo one thinks ab it or cares etc, you will be totally fine. Speech class is terrifying for damn near everyone!
The emotion made it a better speech. The random jock guy probably lost some one close to them and that speech probably touched him so deeply he couldn't help but reach out. The pen is mightier than the sword for a reason.
these two NEED THEIR OWN PODCAST TOGETHER. after watching the episodes with chris on the two hot takes channel, i have never wanted a podcast duo to make more episodes together before in my whole life. this is just the comedic relief I NEED everyday in my life. PLEASE do more episodes together...
Morgan when you talk about wishing you were dumber, I’m the same way! What I do if someone is telling me something I don’t want to know within the world like the news, etc. I talk to myself in my head while they’re talking to me so I literally force myself to have no idea what they said to protect my piece😂
Not me Turing on the sink to brush my teeth after a shower as Chris starts to talk about led still being in our pipes I never looked my self in the mirror with so much horror in my life 😭😂
The schizophrenia / dementia bit got me. My dad is 60 and his dementia started at late 40's. He had to be permanently hospitalized 2 years ago when the schizophrenia started happening. It's so fucking hard to witness. But I'm ride or die. Love you, Dad. Oh, and my dad said the same thing about " pull the plug dont make me suffer " so it sucks extra ass to know how much he didn't want this. But things fell how they fell and we take care of him 24/7. You never know.
@@BeccaPatches Thank you. It's very weird to be 30 and literally taking over my dad's whole life, properties, retirement, livestock etc etc. and making those decisions. I'm just glad he's alive and remembers my name, and most days he's laughing and loving life even if he's not on the same planet as me, we still vibe. ❤
hi public speaking girl here :’) crying :’) thank u so much chris & morgan & all the beautiful sweet ppl commenting with advice and letting me know i’m not alone in this…. i’m literally going to listen to this episode before every speech. THANK UUUUU for believing in me🤍🤍🤍 u gave me so much strength
Holy crap. That is scary. Justified though. Just remember it's all in your head. Our minds have a way of taking over and making things way bigger than they are. I know this is a month old but I know it went well. If it didn't... Guess what?... Nobody is going to even remember. Just a blip in time. ENJOY IT!
@@kaitlynmunson4005 omg hi!! i just saw this notification now hahaha, yes i made it through the class with a B+ which is way better than i had expected!!! i did end up skipping one class due to anxiety and made up the speech the following week but lol, overall it was a semi good experience in that it challenged me to confront and overcome the Scary Feelings but i will NEVER give a speech again in my life i promise u!! tysm for asking
The best advice for public speaking I ever heard was “No one listening to you wants you to fail.” When someone is public speaking and your in the audience don’t you want them to do well with confidence? Isn’t it awkward as hell for you to watch someone fail at a speech. So remember everyone wants you to do well.
HOW DID I FIND THIS SOONERRRRRRR. I love your vids and Morgan’s channel is amazing!! The crossover I never considered/thought I needed and IM LIVINGGGGGG😍😍😍
I hope the person who needed public speaking advice is reading this (I’m late to the party 😅) : Ask if your professor will allow accommodations. I.E. Giving your speech in a one-on-one or small group setting. Or if you’re able to sit (it can help with the shaky feeling + if you’re super anxious you don’t want to become light headed). Or any other accommodations you think would work for you. Even if you may not have a professional diagnosis you may have a professor willing to work with you to make it easier. I took public speaking in HS, it’s something I had to push myself to do because I have diagnosed social anxiety. I could’ve chose to do another class instead because of my diagnosis but I wanted this accomplishment for myself. 7 years out of HS and it’s one of my own personal highest achievements as a teenager. (This is all to give you motivation that you CAN do it too, it’s scary and I very much empathize but it is so rewarding to overcome!)
LOL one of my favorite memes recently was an The Onion-style headline: “Why Brain Damage Might be the Solution You Didn’t Know You Needed: You know, just to take the edge off things” 😂😭
There so few channels I can listen to the intros to but anything with Chris and Morgan have me wheezing, I feel like I’m with my girlfriends it’s so comfortable and inviting!! Subscribed without the video even starting 😂
This entire episode is a mood, a mood I find myself in literally every day, particularly while lying in bed sweating and staring the ceiling about 3am.
That first listener write in is giving the same energy as that meme about blocking ur ex everywhere and then getting a request from them on LinkedIn 😭😭😭😭
The one about the passwords is SO right and in fact my company has changed it's policy on password changes. Instead of rules that were similar (although less strict) to that OPs, the company I work for has changed it's policy to a increase the number of characters with much more complex requirements however, we get to keep this far more complex password for a little bit longer. I totally agree, having people change their password every 4 weeks with such strict guidelines is actually putting the company more at risk due to employees not be able to remember their constantly changing passwords. (Let's not even get into the cost of the IT required for the people who WILL lock themselves out for wrong password)
Asbestos is an extremely sharp fiber that is usually cut into very small pieces and put in polymeric composites. The problem is that when the polymer starts do decompose, the abestos fibers get loose in the air and into our lungs. This can provoke internal bleeding.
I had the same exact feelings related to public speaking (like I was puking from nerves). It was a required class in college and I struggled through, got a C, and moved on with my life and still got honors when I graduated 😂 It will suck for a short amount of time but you’ll survive and then can move on!
my mom had a stroke out of nowhere 9 years ago and thankfully she’s made mostly a full recovery. but she had to learn how to do everything with her left side of her body. so morgan, I also worry about having a stroke every day, if not multiple time a day
THE FIRST STORY HAPPENED TO ME FR A MONTH AGO BUT I WAS THE STALKED ONE BRO (different person) I KNEW DUDE FOR A MONTH TWO YEARS AGO. THEN HIS GIRL KEPT CRAZY CALLING ME BACUSE SHE WAS MAD AT ME AND THOUGHT I WAS TRYING TO STEAL HIM EVEN THOUGH I DIDN’T RESPOND.
chris essentially saying that he would rather die than be disabled is honestly so sad:( to those with dementia- your life is important! you are valued!! you are loved!!!
Girl, as a disabled person, I too, would rather die than be, who I am currently not wanting to be disabled doesn’t mean you’re ignorant or mean or fucked up it’s not like he said anything bad about it
@@amymcdonald4752funny that he wants to be more ignorant. This is my first episode I’ve watched because I love listening to Morgan (even love to disagree with her) but his takes on mental health were disturbing to say the least. I hope he seeks therapy because it is possible to live a life you love.
Schizophrenia is so freaking scary! My son was on meds that made him schizophrenic for awhile and he was like 10-12. I’ll never forget the time he was having an episode, luckily we at his therapist, and he ended up in a seizure from it. Obviously help was called and he was taken to emergency care and was held for a couple days. The look on his eyes though when he was looking out the windows saying these men were there to kill him with these big rifles still haunts me years later.
story 2- this may not help you but i feel obligated to suggest it as it helped me so so much. i use to shake sweat go purple red in the face when public speaking i never felt sick but it was still horrible so i can some what relate. one time A teacher told me to act and i ended up getting a A on that speech compared to all my fails previously. I still get nervous but if i go up there and pretend i’m not me it’s seems to go a lot better. so if you have even the slightest “acting” ability try tricking yourself into thinking i’m just acting. It’s not actually me up there talking i’m someone else. i hope this makes sense and can help!
I’ve been waiting to listen to this. My TH-cam marked this as already watched. Was so confused. Glad I called bullshit. I love your guys energy together
Very off topic but have to note, I'm glad for the info on Wawa being a gas station - I have pieced it together from other THT and similar places by now, but the first few times I was so confused because to me its a small town in Northern Ontario with a giant goose mascot.
I was just telling someone on a first date last Saturday that locked in syndrome is my biggest fear 😅 the worst part is some people can’t even move their eyeballs to communicate at all.
Late af to this but I had a psychotic break when my dad died and was using weed and alcohol heavily. At 18 I had a 50 1 50.. it was not good. I am 30 married and sane. Kids be careful out there.
to be honest,, hearing y’all talk about schizophrenia in a negative way made me so upset. i was diagnosed with schizophrenia about a year ago, then eventually diagnosed with schizoaffective which is basically schizophrenia/ a mood disorder. i’ve struggled all my life with my mental health and bullying. finally i got a diagnosis and i felt so much better. then came the judgement. schizo disorders are absolutely misrepresented in media. we are more than capable of leading happy and healthy lives. im raising a two year old daughter and i am the best mom i could be. my disorder doesn’t effect my ability to be a normal human being. not everyone with these disorders are going to go on some murderous rampage. i am perfectly capable of love and positivity just like anyone else. much love to you but please educate yourselves more on a topic that deep if you’re going to discuss it. again,, all love 🩶
After receiving a diagnosis of kidney cancer, I developed a seizure disorder. Mostly due to the mental stress of it, it was not epilepsy My seizures started out as tonic chronic seizures and then evolved into something truly horrific Much like locked in syndrome I had no controller for my body. I would crumple to the floor the moment the seizures kicked in but I could see everything I could hear everything. I just couldn't communicate. These were always triggered by fear or extreme emotional upset. Just imagine it. You're terrified because somebody yelled at you and your body. Just wilts but you can still see and hear everything that's going on
The password sticky note is ABSOLUTELY true. Nothing worse than calling IT for 45 min to unlock your account because your finger muscle memory. I would have one on both my monitors, my laptop, and my phone for at least the 1st 3 days.
My mom had a stroke and lost all her function on the left side of her body, which was her dominant. Then we got into a car accident where it got mangled and she had to have it amputated. We don’t have a relationship now but I remember she always used to get phantom pains in her left arm that wasn’t there anymore. She could literally still feel her arm, it still freaks me out to think about
You guys need to wats Greys anatomy, its biased on true stories, including a dude who cuts off his leg because he believes its not his. Love you Morgan!!! Congrats on the engagement. Chris, I'm glad I found this page through two hot takes. You are so funny, you have great opinions too. Cant wait to watch more videos
That Feeling better about my life is definitely something reddit stories do to me😂. Love being single, small family so way less drama, nothing to inherit. It's so peaceful
I had a colonoscopy 2 years ago when I was 30 for stomach issues and it was super easy. The worst part was the prep and the IV. And honestly, being knocked out during the procedure was THE best nap I've EVER had in my life. I think about it often lol so peeps don't be afraid to get one!!
My sister used to be super sweet and careing then she got into drugs and now shes diagnosed with schizophrenia and has been in and out of jail for the past 10 years. Its so sad cause she doesnt feel like shes doing anything wrong and wont let anyone help. Im 23 now and havent see or heard from her since i was 14
I blocked my ex husband on everything and he messaged me on Pinterest. I had to block him on Pinterest!!!!! He has been physically and emotionally abusive. He’s threatened to kill me. Leaveeee him. He is not okay.
To the person in public speaking- you are the perfect student for that class! There isn’t a switch that goes off, it takes practice!! That class is a safe space for you to practice and learn
I hated public speaking… literally couldn’t get through it without making a mistake and breathing like I was on a ventilator. The most embarrassing thing I’ve ever been through but you get through it. 😅 practice practice practice. Record yourself for reference of how you want to look. That’s the only thing that helped me.
i was put into a psychosis-state at 15/16 when they prescribed me aderall, don’t remember that entire year except for the fact that i thought i was going insane😭💀

these two NEED THEIR OWN PODCAST TOGETHER. after watching the episodes with chris on the two hot takes channel, i have never wanted a podcast duo to make more episodes together before in my whole life. this is just the comedic relief I NEED everyday in my life. PLEASE do more episodes together...
Agreed! ❤
ok CHRIS photography IS worth it! thank you morgan!!! -a fellow photography major
“Your bf might be stalking his exs Pinterest but listen, you don’t have a pencil in the back of your head “😂😂😂
Morgan when you talk about wishing you were dumber, I’m the same way! What I do if someone is telling me something I don’t want to know within the world like the news, etc. I talk to myself in my head while they’re talking to me so I literally force myself to have no idea what they said to protect my piece😂
Not me Turing on the sink to brush my teeth after a shower as Chris starts to talk about led still being in our pipes I never looked my self in the mirror with so much horror in my life 😭😂

i love for this specific collab combo omg thank you for this beautiful crossover
Yay!! Please start doing more reddit stories episodes!! I promise to come and watch all of them.
I’m having a horrible day & about to have a really stressful week. So glad to have something to listen to to laugh at tonight.
I love how reassuring Morgan is, she makes feel safe ❤
I love the artwork and the face. Perfect set decor for a podcast called Unhinged and it’s just very Chris Klemens branded ❤️😂
Yes! I love you guys podcasting together!
Such a good episode!!! Love Morgan’s energy
The schizophrenia / dementia bit got me. My dad is 60 and his dementia started at late 40's. He had to be permanently hospitalized 2 years ago when the schizophrenia started happening. It's so fucking hard to witness. But I'm ride or die. Love you, Dad.
Oh, and my dad said the same thing about " pull the plug dont make me suffer " so it sucks extra ass to know how much he didn't want this. But things fell how they fell and we take care of him 24/7. You never know.
That’s so young I’m so sorry ❤
@@BeccaPatches Thank you. It's very weird to be 30 and literally taking over my dad's whole life, properties, retirement, livestock etc etc. and making those decisions. I'm just glad he's alive and remembers my name, and most days he's laughing and loving life even if he's not on the same planet as me, we still vibe. ❤
❤❤
Hands down my favorite episode and I love your guest's energy, she has the best personality ❤
hi public speaking girl here :’) crying :’) thank u so much chris & morgan & all the beautiful sweet ppl commenting with advice and letting me know i’m not alone in this…. i’m literally going to listen to this episode before every speech. THANK UUUUU for believing in me🤍🤍🤍 u gave me so much strength
also the face mold GHKGKFM
Holy crap. That is scary. Justified though. Just remember it's all in your head. Our minds have a way of taking over and making things way bigger than they are. I know this is a month old but I know it went well. If it didn't... Guess what?... Nobody is going to even remember. Just a blip in time. ENJOY IT!
No pressure to respond, but I am curious. Have you started the class yet, and if so, how is it going? I hope well!
@@kaitlynmunson4005 omg hi!! i just saw this notification now hahaha, yes i made it through the class with a B+ which is way better than i had expected!!! i did end up skipping one class due to anxiety and made up the speech the following week but lol, overall it was a semi good experience in that it challenged me to confront and overcome the Scary Feelings but i will NEVER give a speech again in my life i promise u!! tysm for asking
The best advice for public speaking I ever heard was “No one listening to you wants you to fail.” When someone is public speaking and your in the audience don’t you want them to do well with confidence? Isn’t it awkward as hell for you to watch someone fail at a speech. So remember everyone wants you to do well.
HOW DID I FIND THIS SOONERRRRRRR. I love your vids and Morgan’s channel is amazing!! The crossover I never considered/thought I needed and IM LIVINGGGGGG😍😍😍
I hope the person who needed public speaking advice is reading this (I’m late to the party 😅) :
Ask if your professor will allow accommodations. I.E. Giving your speech in a one-on-one or small group setting. Or if you’re able to sit (it can help with the shaky feeling + if you’re super anxious you don’t want to become light headed). Or any other accommodations you think would work for you. Even if you may not have a professional diagnosis you may have a professor willing to work with you to make it easier.
I took public speaking in HS, it’s something I had to push myself to do because I have diagnosed social anxiety. I could’ve chose to do another class instead because of my diagnosis but I wanted this accomplishment for myself. 7 years out of HS and it’s one of my own personal highest achievements as a teenager. (This is all to give you motivation that you CAN do it too, it’s scary and I very much empathize but it is so rewarding to overcome!)
Looooved this. More in person chats like this please ✨ talk show vibes ✨
LOL one of my favorite memes recently was an The Onion-style headline: “Why Brain Damage Might be the Solution You Didn’t Know You Needed: You know, just to take the edge off things” 😂😭
There so few channels I can listen to the intros to but anything with Chris and Morgan have me wheezing, I feel like I’m with my girlfriends it’s so comfortable and inviting!! Subscribed without the video even starting 😂
This entire episode is a mood, a mood I find myself in literally every day, particularly while lying in bed sweating and staring the ceiling about 3am.
now we need an episode of morgan’s experiences working in the psychiatric unit!!!!
That first listener write in is giving the same energy as that meme about blocking ur ex everywhere and then getting a request from them on LinkedIn 😭😭😭😭
The one about the passwords is SO right and in fact my company has changed it's policy on password changes. Instead of rules that were similar (although less strict) to that OPs, the company I work for has changed it's policy to a increase the number of characters with much more complex requirements however, we get to keep this far more complex password for a little bit longer.
I totally agree, having people change their password every 4 weeks with such strict guidelines is actually putting the company more at risk due to employees not be able to remember their constantly changing passwords. (Let's not even get into the cost of the IT required for the people who WILL lock themselves out for wrong password)
I love Morgan! She is so insightful🙌
SHES SO SMART
I found your channel from the episodes you came on THT. Love Morgan and now love you!
Asbestos is an extremely sharp fiber that is usually cut into very small pieces and put in polymeric composites. The problem is that when the polymer starts do decompose, the abestos fibers get loose in the air and into our lungs. This can provoke internal bleeding.
I needed this to get me through today 😂 LOVE this collab! ❤
Thank you for bringing me to life Chris & Morgan!!!!
So excited to see Morgan on tour and upset I missed you in Philly!
you guys as a duo is awsome
I had the same exact feelings related to public speaking (like I was puking from nerves). It was a required class in college and I struggled through, got a C, and moved on with my life and still got honors when I graduated 😂 It will suck for a short amount of time but you’ll survive and then can move on!
I love that this is the first episode of this podcast I've listened to 😅
my mom had a stroke out of nowhere 9 years ago and thankfully she’s made mostly a full recovery. but she had to learn how to do everything with her left side of her body. so morgan, I also worry about having a stroke every day, if not multiple time a day
So excited for this one I need more of y'all!!
The best duo😍
I LOVE THIS TWOO TOGETHER
The boiling coffee story Morgan told is like every Monday morning working the drive through at McDonald’s in high school 😅 so bad.
THE FIRST STORY HAPPENED TO ME FR A MONTH AGO BUT I WAS THE STALKED ONE BRO (different person) I KNEW DUDE FOR A MONTH TWO YEARS AGO. THEN HIS GIRL KEPT CRAZY CALLING ME BACUSE SHE WAS MAD AT ME AND THOUGHT I WAS TRYING TO STEAL HIM EVEN THOUGH I DIDN’T RESPOND.
chris essentially saying that he would rather die than be disabled is honestly so sad:( to those with dementia- your life is important! you are valued!! you are loved!!!
Thank you for this. The dementia bit had me in tears. It cuts deep when you deal with it everyday.
His ignorance is why I can’t stand to watch him
Girl, as a disabled person, I too, would rather die than be, who I am currently not wanting to be disabled doesn’t mean you’re ignorant or mean or fucked up it’s not like he said anything bad about it
I was a caretaker for my elderly grandmother at 18. I'm also physically and psychologically disabled. I too would much rather be dead lol
@@amymcdonald4752funny that he wants to be more ignorant. This is my first episode I’ve watched because I love listening to Morgan (even love to disagree with her) but his takes on mental health were disturbing to say the least. I hope he seeks therapy because it is possible to live a life you love.
Love this duo! Thanks for being my escape and transporting me to the best tea party whenever I press play 😂❤
Schizophrenia is so freaking scary! My son was on meds that made him schizophrenic for awhile and he was like 10-12. I’ll never forget the time he was having an episode, luckily we at his therapist, and he ended up in a seizure from it. Obviously help was called and he was taken to emergency care and was held for a couple days. The look on his eyes though when he was looking out the windows saying these men were there to kill him with these big rifles still haunts me years later.
The set is incredible Chris it’s soooo nice
I love two individually and together!
I mean this in the nicest way possible, but your humor and personality reminds me of Roger from American Dad! lol
Me trying to use the advice about public speaking for court tomorrow where I'll be, for the first time alone, representing a client. Panic central 😊
story 2- this may not help you but i feel obligated to suggest it as it helped me so so much. i use to shake sweat go purple red in the face when public speaking i never felt sick but it was still horrible so i can some what relate. one time A teacher told me to act and i ended up getting a A on that speech compared to all my fails previously. I still get nervous but if i go up there and pretend i’m not me it’s seems to go a lot better. so if you have even the slightest “acting” ability try tricking yourself into thinking i’m just acting. It’s not actually me up there talking i’m someone else. i hope this makes sense and can help!
I work with kids on the spectrum, these teacher stories are so real. The amount of incident reports are crazy.
I really chose to listen to this at 7 am on a Monday morning
This is literally what goes on in my head every day I love you too together I want to hear more of you two together
25:27 this made me cry, my late father growing up..
41:17 DIDNT THINK ID NEED TO HOLD BACK MY BREAKFAST FOR THIS EPISODE, THAAAANKS CHRIS.
Omgggg I’m nervous
I’ve been waiting to listen to this. My TH-cam marked this as already watched. Was so confused. Glad I called bullshit. I love your guys energy together
Omg Morgon I want to thank you because I also think about dying everyday and I am CRYING because I'm so happy that I'm not alone in this...
44:26 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sorry but I died here, busted out laughing and almost woke up my toddler but it was worth the laugh. “What did you just call me?” 💀
loved the energy. i will say i wish it was a split screen because switching between chris and morgan was making me dizzy
This was the collab I didn’t know I needed, but absolutely did! Please do an episode with Leo Skepi, next!
Very off topic but have to note, I'm glad for the info on Wawa being a gas station - I have pieced it together from other THT and similar places by now, but the first few times I was so confused because to me its a small town in Northern Ontario with a giant goose mascot.
I was just telling someone on a first date last Saturday that locked in syndrome is my biggest fear 😅 the worst part is some people can’t even move their eyeballs to communicate at all.
Late af to this but I had a psychotic break when my dad died and was using weed and alcohol heavily. At 18 I had a 50 1 50.. it was not good. I am 30 married and sane. Kids be careful out there.
I LIVE FOR THIS COLLAB
i love this duo so much
to be honest,, hearing y’all talk about schizophrenia in a negative way made me so upset. i was diagnosed with schizophrenia about a year ago, then eventually diagnosed with schizoaffective which is basically schizophrenia/ a mood disorder. i’ve struggled all my life with my mental health and bullying. finally i got a diagnosis and i felt so much better. then came the judgement. schizo disorders are absolutely misrepresented in media. we are more than capable of leading happy and healthy lives. im raising a two year old daughter and i am the best mom i could be. my disorder doesn’t effect my ability to be a normal human being. not everyone with these disorders are going to go on some murderous rampage. i am perfectly capable of love and positivity just like anyone else. much love to you but please educate yourselves more on a topic that deep if you’re going to discuss it. again,, all love 🩶
Get off the internet then
After receiving a diagnosis of kidney cancer, I developed a seizure disorder. Mostly due to the mental stress of it, it was not epilepsy
My seizures started out as tonic chronic seizures and then evolved into something truly horrific
Much like locked in syndrome I had no controller for my body. I would crumple to the floor the moment the seizures kicked in but I could see everything I could hear everything. I just couldn't communicate. These were always triggered by fear or extreme emotional upset.
Just imagine it. You're terrified because somebody yelled at you and your body. Just wilts but you can still see and hear everything that's going on
The face on the wall creeps me out 😂
Omg when worlds collide. My two favorite podcasts 🫀
The password sticky note is ABSOLUTELY true. Nothing worse than calling IT for 45 min to unlock your account because your finger muscle memory. I would have one on both my monitors, my laptop, and my phone for at least the 1st 3 days.
My mom had a stroke and lost all her function on the left side of her body, which was her dominant. Then we got into a car accident where it got mangled and she had to have it amputated. We don’t have a relationship now but I remember she always used to get phantom pains in her left arm that wasn’t there anymore. She could literally still feel her arm, it still freaks me out to think about
i got my first colonoscopy and endoscopy when i was 27! the prep sucked, but it was worth it to get some answers.
You guys need to wats Greys anatomy, its biased on true stories, including a dude who cuts off his leg because he believes its not his. Love you Morgan!!! Congrats on the engagement. Chris, I'm glad I found this page through two hot takes. You are so funny, you have great opinions too. Cant wait to watch more videos
So glad someone else was thinking of that greys episode!!
That Feeling better about my life is definitely something reddit stories do to me😂. Love being single, small family so way less drama, nothing to inherit. It's so peaceful
I had a colonoscopy 2 years ago when I was 30 for stomach issues and it was super easy. The worst part was the prep and the IV. And honestly, being knocked out during the procedure was THE best nap I've EVER had in my life. I think about it often lol so peeps don't be afraid to get one!!
My mother has lead piping in her house and I lived there almost a year. She still drinks tap water..
WAAIIIIT the public speaking girlie- im in the exact same situation! so thank u
My sister used to be super sweet and careing then she got into drugs and now shes diagnosed with schizophrenia and has been in and out of jail for the past 10 years. Its so sad cause she doesnt feel like shes doing anything wrong and wont let anyone help. Im 23 now and havent see or heard from her since i was 14
Chris you’re hilarious, I’m glad I found you from listening to Two Hot Takes!
I 100% understand the feeling of “PULL THE PLUG!!!” Me too Chris, me too!
My FAVE duo ❤
I blocked my ex husband on everything and he messaged me on Pinterest. I had to block him on Pinterest!!!!! He has been physically and emotionally abusive. He’s threatened to kill me. Leaveeee him. He is not okay.
To the person in public speaking- you are the perfect student for that class! There isn’t a switch that goes off, it takes practice!! That class is a safe space for you to practice and learn
I hated public speaking… literally couldn’t get through it without making a mistake and breathing like I was on a ventilator. The most embarrassing thing I’ve ever been through but you get through it. 😅 practice practice practice. Record yourself for reference of how you want to look. That’s the only thing that helped me.
i was put into a psychosis-state at 15/16 when they prescribed me aderall, don’t remember that entire year except for the fact that i thought i was going insane😭💀
