BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to provide a straightforward response to Mike Majlak, a close friend of Logan Paul, after the latter recently confessed about his mental health struggles.
The controversial influencer counseled Majlak, letting him know that his life was better than those living in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas conflict.
When it comes to discussions about mental health, Tate's viewpoint has often been criticized as lacking understanding, as he has previously stated that depression is a choice and dismissed it as an insignificant issue.
How did Andrew Tate react to Mike Majlak's confession about his mental health struggles?
In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter) Mike Majlak, a close friend of Logan Paul, openly discussed his battle with mental health issues.
He aimed to raise awareness about these challenges and candidly shared, "Since i was 13 years, i have spent some part of every single day of my life tortured by crippling anxiety, obsessive and intrusive thoughts, and intense sadness as a result."
"my battle with this monster has affected every aspect of my life, my relationships with my family and romantic partners, my sobriety, and my career," continued Majlak.
He went on to reveal, "It has led me to recklessly harming myself, sabotaging any good in my life, and extreme bouts of despair. i have avoided commitment. i have run from potential job opportunities. i have isolated myself. but through all of this, i never once lost hope that things would one day get better for me."
"I got up every day. i went to the gym. i pinned a smile to my face. i remained grateful. i leaned on my people. on some days i did my best and other days i did whatever i could. i walked. i crawled. i dragged myself through what people who didn’t understand would call “an imaginary issue” or “a character weakness”," further stated Majlak.
The 'IMPAULSIVE' co-host added, "This week i am starting some new treatments that i am excited for. i wanted to take a minute this morning, on a day where i am not feeling entirely strong, to write this out. this isn’t for the people who don’t get it. this is for the people who do. the millions of you who know exactly what i am talking about and how i feel."
In conclusion, Majlak wrote, "I am hopeful for me. i am hopeful for you. for all of us. that we will one day feel free from this and experience it feels like to live in peace. not if, but when. keep going."
Responding to Majlak's heartfelt confession, Tate, known for his controversial stance on mental health, remarked, "I state this with love. Your life is not fine, its infact better than most. Look at life in Gaza for 10mins then get over yourself. Anything other than happiness is dumbs**t."
In response to Top G's comment, Majlak stated, "I agree with this entirely, and that is what makes it most frustrating brother. being grateful is of course the cornerstone to happiness, and i am grateful for the blessedness of my life every day. unfortunately there is more at play for us who struggle. i will keep working."

Soon after Andrew Tate replied to Mike Majlak's confession about his mental health struggles, numerous users stepped forward to share their opinions.
One wrote, "Agreed. People need to put themselves through more physical suffering, willingly, if they are struggling with the mental demons."
Another user wrote, "Imagine complaining about being a multi millionaire cause ur anxious. What a child."
"2 rich ppl arguing about what happiness means lol," noted a user.
Someone else expressed, "It’s not that someone has the worst circumstances that makes them depressed or suicidal. It’s that their narrative and expectations are too far away from their reality. Dismantle your false expectations and rewrite your narrative. Your life isn’t bad!"
A critic of Tate replied, "That’s unfortunately just not how human biology and neurology works. It’s complicated. Life can be excellent. But that has nothing to do with how some people ruminate, carry fear, doubt, overthink, etc."
