    Peep is not a vulnerable narcissist.. couldn't be farther from the truth. One of the key characteristics is that they take more than they receive, but peep was extremely selfless and would often pay for his friend's expenses so that they could all continue making music together even though peep was clearly the most talented.

However, It also was one of the few things that felt authentic and true at the time. I kind of think of it like a stamp of that period of time in my life. I'm 20 now so I'm still young but I'm a lot more content with my life now. I think it has a lot to do with the individual and how they interpret his music.

    What kills me is that Peep was by all accounts a good guy - so many people in the industry suffering from substance abuse lash out at others and apparently that just wasn't his style - he even ended up ending his professional friendship with XXXTentacion because of the serious abuse that XXX was alleged to have committed. If there's anyone from the "emo rap" scene who ought to still be around, it's Peep.

One of his lesser known friends said there was a time at his house where it was full of people and he was just kinda hiding out in the corner away from everyone, and the friend asked "are you ok? do you want me to tell everyone to leave?' peeps face immediately went from anxious to relieved and answered "yes bro, please!".. he could never be "mean" enough to do it himself. knowing this, it's easy to see how all these "friends" ended up on HIS tour.. he was trying to get them exposure and help them out.... funny because when HE needed help, they were absurdly negligent at best, but possibly willfully unhelpful. there's a particular labelmate that's been HIGHLY suspected as playing a big role in his death- after all, he's the one who *knowingly supplied peep with LACED roxicets*... when this"friend" was told peep couldn't be woken up, he said " that's whack"and didn't even get out of his seat outside of the bus. peep was completely unmoved & not checked on for AT LEAST 4 hours that we know of - it can even be seen in various peoples pictures/videos throughout those hours(in the background)... & his "friend" KNEW what he had given him.. he didn't take any himself bc he knew that they were laced..

    This all sounds very familiar. For 22 years I ran a group home for men dealing with Substance Use Disorder and other serious mental illness. I also lived there. In nearly all cases they started using drugs or alcohol because they gave immediate relief from their mental illness. The problem, as you point out, was that the substance use made their other mental health symptoms worse rather than better over the long haul.

    What a dam shame. I had never heard of this guy before, I think I must live in a different world! Lil Peep, my heart hurts hearing this sad, sad story. I can relate to his pain, from very young I was having accidents, going to the hospital and somehow different from my peers. Breaking things, loosing them, always covered in paint, even when it wasn’t art. “What’s Caroline done now” we’re words I’d hear so often. “Caroline must try harder”, I was always doing my best. At nine my parents were called into school because I was always covered in bruises, they thought I was being abused at home instead I nearly got tested for dysphasia. By the time 13 arrived I hated myself so much I wanted to be dead. Then I found drugs and alcohol thinking with them too came the solution to my deep-self hatred. Instead though I hadn’t take a cross off from around my neck, one of mental health problems, I had actually draped another equally heavy weight to carry, that of addiction. It is people like Lil Peep who I am dedicating the rest of my life to helping, to make amends for the huge, unknown quantity of damage I have done during my 25 years in addiction. To make a difference at that critical time in young people’s lives who have mental health problems and are at the same crossroads that me and Lil Peep were at, where we both went the wrong way, convinced at the time we were going the right way, that drugs and alcohol were the answers to our pain.
    Rest in Peace Lil Peep 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈.

    A lot of people with mental health problems self medicate with drugs/alcohol, which does not just add another problem but makes it impossible to treat the first one effectively. It's even worse w/young people, since both the drugs themselves and the fact of being intoxicated so much of the time & learning to "solve" life's problems w/drugs affects their still developing brains negatively

Great vid Doc as always, thx for this one. Gonna share it with my little cousin I'm sure he will like it and my hope is he subscribes to you after watching 👍✌
    Just wanted to add his music reminds me of my teenage yrs so I guess I not too surprised at the fact I enjoyed some of it. My little cousin had alot of similarities to peep also. The music, the drugs. He has stopped with the xanax all together and now only does marijuana. So many kids of my cousins generation share alot of similarities with peep, I think we should definitely be on the offensive with this. Just my opinion, because I thought my generation was messed up but they seem to be surpassing us in many ways. All negative. Saddens me to think of how these kids don't seem to be getting much in the way of education on positive things. I see spoiled, excuse making, no responsibility taking kids that honestly seem to be learning it all from their parents. Idk really that's just my perception on the subject. Light handed opinion honestly.

      Very intelligent comment. Good luck to your cousin and peers. I agree, offense is needed. It's difficult, but necessary. Once a person gets addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, it's a lifelong struggle. 💔

    Some of the most dependable, hard working, trustworthy , smart, capable people have tattoos. Stop being such a judgmental snob Dr Grande.

      Agreed. I generally enjoy these videos, but a professional in the mental health field should not be such a harsh critic of how people decide to express themselves. These kind of things make me nervous about seeing professionals due to things like this

      Exactly! And then they wonder why troubled people turn to drugs and alcohol🤔

      I was a substitute teacher for 10 years. I'm covered with tattoos but chose to cover them up. I ran into a lot of ignorance but my work ethic and professionalism spoke for itself.
