I’m so sorry he let you down like that. He’s a vulture on mental health and uses it for his own enrichment.

The trouble is he acts and talks like some MH guru. 'Trust me! Buy my book and it will provide answers'. Yet when tied to specifics sort of shrugs his shoulders and says 'Don't ask me. It's just a book of my opinions'. He wants it all ways.
I really think he is quite dangerous tbh.

Gosh I’m so sorry that happened to you, that’s not fair. He’s an absolute horror and that book tour should not have been allowed, his ‘advice’ is dangerous.

Matt isn't trained in any realm of MH so he shouldn't be giving advice whether in his books or in person which is probably why he didn't know what to say. I find it absurd that someone who isn't qualified releases books on anxiety etc.

I am so sorry you went through that. This is why I think his ramblings do more harm than good. Is he even qualified? Other than having had issues in the past himself?

I’m so sorry you went through that. I hope you’re ok. He has no right pushing himself to the forefront as an advocate for mental health issues when the reality is he knows nothing. He’s a snake oil salesman.

Firstly, your post makes me want to give you a massive hug.

Secondly, it makes me want to go to another of his readings and explain to him in a clear manner how his books and SM posts are dangerous and triggering for so many people.

He makes me want to hide in a hole today with his latest book ideas. News flash Matt- we don’t need them.

he has no qualifications beyond being commissioned to write trite books

some screenshots I've taken today:

like, you could probably do something about this, given your "influence"




I have no idea what any of this means, but I know it sounds like a thick person trying to sound clever

Of course that would be his pet hate. Something about him. People making assumptions about him. Not litter, or bad behaviour, or animal cruelty or any number of things that are detrimental to society at large, but boohoo people saying mean things about him. He is so completely self obsessed it is laughable. Permanently looking to be fucking offended.

bitch please.

remember when you had a pop at her when she didn't credit you when she posted your inanities? like she'd even heard of you!

and you never stop going on about your own "worst week over a decade ago"

What's he even saying there, don't talk about your mental health in case people section you?

All the bandwagon jumpers saying ‘this seems really bad about Britney and how she was treated.
Also remember how the ‘leave Britney alone’ meme began when her fans were concerned that she wasn’t well, years and years ago.

#FreeBritney does go into conspiracies about her Instagram account etc - but they have been going on about this for a really long time, that she is exploited and refuses to work because she has no freedom. Now once middle aged men start talking about it maybe something will happen. Sigh.

it’s so sad that no one seems to care about her for herself, just the money she can make for them.

Yes isn't he a bit of a hypocrite here? Moaning on about her because put up one of his trite sayings without crediting him.
I remember that. Very passive aggressive. But he’s not averse to using her name now to throw out more of his bullshit. He’s a massive twat.

you're not funny pal. 160k deaths, rampant corruption in the government.

Haigy: how can I make ~hilarious~ "jokes" involving myself and my hugely bestselling books?
