Jake Paul Just Claimed Anxiety Is Self-Imposed, In Case You Needed Another Reason To Unfollow Him

Jake has a history of abusing his friends, whether it's for clout and relevancy or that's his personality.

Jake Paul Just Claimed Anxiety Is Self-Imposed, In Case You Needed Another Reason To Unfollow Him

I am practicing the art of no longer canceling people because I canceled Taylor Swift just because my Internet friends and the media were. I didn't think about how she felt and now I recant every bad thing I said about her. Jake Paul, on the other hand, I never canceled because I simply do not care about him.

Never have and never will.

Jake Paul is always involved in controversy in some way, shape, or form. His latest tweet said "anxiety is created by you." It has since been deleted, but you KNOW the internet is around to provide screenshots. He tried to backpedal and say that he was spreading awareness and said that he didn't know he had anxiety until he was 18, but dealt with the effects his entire life.

Given that yes, people suffer from anxiety and will never know unless they go to a doctor, remember that this is the same person who allegedly bullied his "friends" and employees to the point where their mental health actually started to deteriorate. This isn't the case for just one or two people — there are at least 10 people who have spoken up about Jake's abuse or tried to hide their true feelings to avoid any backlash from Jake.

The Martinez Twins talked about the serious hate and disrespect they got from Jake while being apart of Jake's Team 10 crew. Chance Sutton left and revealed in a video (that has since been deleted) why he left Team 10. Others created videos, like Tessa Brooks and Tristan Tales. This circle of bullying started with Alissa Violet's string of Snapchat videos where she said Jake kicked her out of his house and then other Team 10 members began to also bully Alissa. It's a whole mess, I'm sure there are Drama Alert videos somewhere about it.

Anytime a video came out about Jake, how mentally draining he was, or how damaging the environment he promoted was, people would attack the victim instead of Jake. That's why I never bothered to give him a single view, like, or comment. Yes, I judged him before I watched his videos, but then Shane Dawson did his documentary with Jake, which was absolutely amazing, but it didn't change how I looked at Jake because even in his videos that I went back and watched so I could see where people were coming from, you could tell that behind his jokes and giggles, there was some truth to any and everything he said.

I can play devil's advocate for a second, he also has been on the receiving end of hate from parents. At his old house, parents would bring their kids to see him and the other Team 10 members and if any of them refused, the parents would say things like, "These kids made you famous. Be appreciative of them." This could have most definitely played a role in how Jake acts and treats people, but that does not give him the right to hop on the Internet and claim to be a self-care and mental health guru.

Why are we so shocked about Jake's tweet-and-delete when we should be used to him speaking out of hypocrisy and ignorance? He's clearly no mental health advocate.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
