you guys remember that time with Shane
Dawson did that Jake Paul series and
everybody freaked out because Shane
Dawson and Kati Morton were talking
about sociopaths oh boy was that crazy
what is everybody this is Chris from the
rewired saw where we talked about the
problem but focus on the solution and if
you're new to my channel what I try to
do is take different topics from the
YouTube community try to see what
lessons we can pull from them to improve
our own mental and emotional well-being
so if you're into that stuff make sure
you subscribe and bring that
notification bell and all of you loyal
rewired soldiers out there you're
looking around and you're like whoa
Chris that background looks different
well I'm in a hotel room because I am
actually in Anaheim California here at
VidCon and it's been so cool I'm
probably going to do some recap videos
and stuff there's been some really
awesome panels a bunch of awesome
creators I saw panels today with like
Kati Morton
with Jarvis Johnson Dan from the ASPI
world all sorts of cool people so I
might do some recap videos on that I've
also met some really awesome fans of the
channel I also got to meet nerd City the
dude who put my crazy Shane Dawson
reaction video but yeah it's really cool
I also got to meet the guy from deadbeat
my son absolutely loves that channel
like that channel got my son into horror
movies anyways if you're a big con find
me come say hi
let's check but yeah anyways tana mongeau I guess she's gonna be here at
VidCon too but I saw they uploaded this
video today about them taking the
sociopath test and I remember when
Tanner was doing the mukbang look bang
how do you say that with Shane Dawson or
Ryland Adams and Morgan Adams and
everything like that and I think they
were like talking about it anyways we
finally released the video where tana mongeau and Jake Paul take the sociopath
test so you can check out that video
down below if you want to check that out
I just wanted to take a couple topics
from that video and discuss them with
all of you beautiful people
so those of you who don't know me I am
NOT a licensed therapist I'm not a
licensed psychologist I do have
experience working in the mental health
field I'm currently working on my
certified alcohol and drug counselor
licensing and everything like that but
also disclaimer I don't know Tana mongeau I
don't know Jake everything like that all
right
but anyways those of you who have been
around for a while don't worry I'm not
gonna diagnose anybody in this video
actually do want to talk about diagnosis
so anyways one of the reasons I want to
make this video because there is a topic
that we really need to discuss all right
and that is self diagnosis or even
looking up symptoms online so like since
like the dawn of the Internet and like
searching and googling and everything
like that or WebMD this has been the
bane of people's existences right like I
get it like I used to be so anxious and
obsessive that when I was experiencing
something I would look online for hours
and hours and hours and if you have
anxiety and you get obsessive you know
exactly what I'm talking about all right
if you've done this in the past let me
know down in the comments below all
right anyways I just want to talk about
this stuff like always see a doctor like
I said I'm not a therapist I'm not a
psychologist although I talk about
mental health on this channel like
something I'm always trying to get all
of you to do is if you have the
resources go get help
alright if you have health insurance if
you have the money whatever it is go get
help go talk to a doctor go talk to a
therapist alright but looking up this
stuff online is never a good idea it's
especially it's not good if they're
trying to get like an actual answer so
here's here's my suggestion just for my
personal experience my personal
suggestions if you're gonna take any of
these tests online like when when you
see a doctor when you see a therapist a
lot of them do have like kind of a
checklist that they go through to see if
you have certain symptoms that match up
with a specific diagnosis order alright
and a lot of that information they just
talks online but there's so many
different variables okay so what I
recommend is like especially if you're
watching like here's the scenario I
imagine
you're on YouTube and you're looking
stuff up right maybe you see this
sociopath test with Tana mojo and Jake
Paul right or maybe you're looking up
like do I have depression or do I have
this or do I have that right
like with my videos like I hope like
here's a little how to use the rewired
soul if I talk about mental health
subjects like if I talk about mental
health subjects like I want you to see
like does this sound familiar like can
you relate to that because if so go see
a professional okay
like never try to diagnose yourself
never try to diagnose anybody else
anything like that all right but like if
you can relate to that like I've had
people like I used to make a lot of
videos just about like the different
symptoms like I would talk about you
know symptoms from the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual about different
disorders and everything like that and
like a lot of people would just stumble
across them you know because maybe they
heard about it I'm not sure how they
found them right or what sparked their
interest but like oh wow it sounds like
I might have this like another great
example is I did a video about
maladaptive daydreaming not that we'll
meet last year and a lot of people
stumble across this like oh my god I
think I have this right so like if you
think you have something make sure you
set up an appointment I go talk to
somebody okay
because here's here's one of the biggest
reasons why that is like so many
different mental illnesses especially
have like overlapping symptoms alright
so for example if you have PTSD you also
have anxiety people with anxiety can
also have depression some people might
experience you know manic manic episodes
and they might think they have bipolar
disorder but it could be some other type
of mood disorder you see what I mean so
when you work with a like a psychiatrist
a psychologist whoever it is you can get
more of an accurate diagnosis because if
you're not getting an accurate diagnosis
then you're not going to be able to
treat the right thing all right like the
way I usually explain it is your your
gonna have a problem treating your arm
if you have a broken leg you see what I
mean like so you want to make sure that
you get an accurate diagnosis all right
so the second thing I want to talk about
I am reading this amazing book right now
the most amazing book I love it so much
it's called an invisible influence okay
if you're into psychology if you're into
behavior like behavioral sciences and
stuff like that you have to get this
book all right like it was recommended
to me by a friend but anyways anyways
I'm like three chapters in I've been
listening I listen to it on my drive out
here to LA and I've been listening to it
like you know when I'm like - going to
and from VidCon and everything like that
but anyways like check it out check it
out like I'm gonna do so many videos
about this book because it explains
perfectly like mob mentality and why we
choose the things that we choose and
everything like that baby ways there
there's some specific studies in here
that they've talked about and I just
thought it was funny because Tana mojo
and Jake Paul were taking this test
together okay and here's the thing like
something this book talks about quite a
bit is your answers are not going to be
accurate right and here's the thing like
one of the examples it gives in there
was there was a study they did where
these like these psychologists who were
doing a study they dressed up as waiters
and they went to this like local brewery
right and they went to different people
and had him you know pick what beer they
wanted and they had like six different
beers alright and what they found was
cuz with one group they had that people
say it out loud and what they found was
many of the people who picked a certain
beer were really dissatisfied with that
beer but with the other group what they
had him do was write down on a piece of
paper what beer they wanted right and
they saw their satisfaction went way up
and basically what they were trying to
find out was like how does social
influence like play into the decisions
that we make so what they found was with
those beers right like people picked a
beer not even wanting that specificity
or not even liking that type of beer
because other people at the table were
all right like they even talked about
like another test another study that
they did where they had somebody come in
and you had to match a line right you
had a line over here and then you had
options a B and C all right
and you had to match the line which one
is the same length right and the answer
was C but what the person answering that
question didn't know was that the other
five people in that room were actors
okay so even though this person knew
that the answer was C all of the actors
said B all right so even when a person
knows the correct answer on a test if
everybody else is saying something
different they're going to pick the
wrong answer right like isn't that crazy
like I think this is so important like
my friend who recommended this book
invisible influence to me I was like yo
we got to get everybody to read this
book like there is so much in there and
it's something that I'm really
fascinated with not only as like
somebody you know who does YouTube but
just as somebody who like yours really
interested in seeing why people do the
things they do especially how about like
like crowd psychology works like
obviously cancel culture is this huge
thing and just see how people are swayed
in different directions because what we
start to see especially when people are
in a group like they lose they lose
their own you know freedom of choice
right they they stop making their own
choices they start choosing what the
herd is choosing right so there's so
much interesting stuff and I have like
50 million video ideas and stuff like
that but anyways anyways the takeaways
from this video is this take test by
yourself alright get accurate answers
second off use any of these online tests
as like just just getting your wheels
turned all right make sure you see a
professional to get an official
diagnosis alright
never forget that okay anyways that's
all I got for this video again I'm at
VidCon I might do some more videos while
