S07.E24: Sean LIVE CHAT

[DC Gal in VA]

Oh dear Sean, Dr. Now doesn't give you "attitude" about you gaining weight, he was honestly just trying to save your life.

How is it possible to gain 188 pounds in two months!?

I really didn't remember that detail. Shocking.

[CringeWatcher]

188 lbs in 2 months??? That’s more than James k. He just doesn’t give a crap. W.T.F.? 

[FormeryHeavyJ]

Maybe he should have used some of that ten grand on Chlorox, Mr Clean, Lysol, etc.

[suev33 3]

Shame on his mom for keeping him so sheltered and child-like.    No friends, no family to lean on.  His father could care less.   I can understand his wanting to die...😥this is so tragic

[Snarkastikate]

Gained 188 lbs in 2 months.  He's better off where he is, I think he just wanted to die and be with mom anyway.  Rest in peace Sean.  

[Suzywriter]

$9000!

[sainte-chapelle]

188 pounds in 2 months, how is that possible!?!?!? Oh but he is too poor for healthy food.

[OoogleEyes]

Wow..just like a heroin addict,  he came into some money and ATE IT ALL

Jesus..

[Dianaofthehunt]

If I could time-travel, I would dump quantities of spermicide in his grandparents’ water supply.

Agree.

[Azubah]

I think some of this is footage they haven't shown before.

[String Theory]

What happen to his hair?

[sainte-chapelle]

He hasn't washed in a week and he smells OMG you guys! The is horrifying

He ate 9k? I’m gobsmacked. Why couldn’t he buy a pair of dadgum pants? Purchase a bar of dial? Hire someone to clean his nasty apartment? NO. HE ATE $9,000 worth of food in two months.

somewhere James k is totally jelly.

Ate his inheritance I guess. Shrugs. Hand me my drawers, please.

[cmpbl]

He needs  psych evaluation.

[ShortyMac]

Wonder how he got $10K? Life insurance from his mom?

[Snarkastikate]

OMG we've got another 90 minutes to go?  Holy crap.

I think the shaved head is where the newer stuff begins.

They didn't say, but $10K is a common amount for a small life insurance policy.

[mmecorday]

There is something strange about Sean's eyes. There's some disconnect there.

Some kind of scalp infection?  It looks all scabby.

[MsVixen]

Look at Sean's expressions and body language!  He's checked out and ain't coming back!

[Hellga]

Everything about him is annoying - his look, his voice, his attitude.   His mother made him this way, but couldn't he have taken the chance to change when he started therapy with Dr. Paradise? 

[String Theory]

Dr. Now/Dr. Paradise need to have him admitted to a psych facility.   Wonder if he was on any antidepressants?

He was on a suicide mission and agree that he really didn't want to live after his mom passed.  Very sad indeed.

[hoosiermom]

OK. No potato chips later. Bur Ice cream sandwiches are still in. I just got them today!

[WhitneyWhit]

He looks like a long lost Assanti brother.

OK, he just used the word "myriad" in a sentence, correctly. I call no intellectual disability. He's emotionally crippled and unable to cope with life. But he's not mentally challenged. 

I agree. I don't find him intellectually disabled; I don't think he's on the spectrum, either. He's been coddled and babied and is grieving his mother. He can (could) make changes, but he needs help, like a group home or a social worker or something. 

Plus - I don't blame dad. Who knows why there was a divorce and whether/how much the mom poisoned Sean against his father? She may have made it difficult for the father to keep in touch with Sean. It happens. Sean is a baby, and I recognize it's not entirely his fault, but he is unwilling to put the work in - like every other obessee on this show - otherwise thy would have stopped at 3 - 400 pounds.

[Concerned]

Dr Now is right. He’s committing suicide.

[Carboncat]

Thank you   Dr. Nowzaradan!    For calling him out for HOW MUCH he must eat to gain weight.  thanks for spelling it out.  Ferme la bouche !                !

[MissLam]

Is a fresh spinach salad and a bowl of Golden Grahams a balanced meal? Asking for a friend.

He’s a disgusting, unpleasant version of Eeyore.

His face, hands and feet don’t seem to fat, he’s carrying all his extra weight in his torso. Doesn’t have elephant legs like Steven Assanti, though I would peg his IQ at about 75.

I don't know,the way he talk sometime it seems there is some smarts there, then other times....

He shaved his head in one of the earlier episodes. I think he lets it grow, then shaves it with a clipper because he can't go to a shop to get it cut.

Oh, goodness!  Hi peeps!   having kitchen/living room redone and it's 105 degrees in house.  Cats are panting and looking at me like this is MY fault.  But did put laptop in livingroom for Live Chat.

Wow.  My Mom's AC broke down when I was there and of course it was when it was 88 degrees and steamy humid because of thunderstorms - I feel for you and your cats!  I would be dead at 105,  C'mon, humans go into heat stroke at those temperatures!

[CircusPeanuts]

HI Pounders. I’m late to the live chat, but on time  for the show. This is very sad. I really feel for Sean. He is not mentally and emotionally capable of caring for himself. 😿

[Miracle Maxie]

I’m not sure if I’m ever eating again. Certainly nothing more tonight. 

[Wanda]

He has no idea what a care facility is. He really thinks it will be like life with his mother. Floundering in a bed eating multiple pizzas and burgers 

[Suzywriter]

His escort to and from the hospital is a saint.

OMG, that foot is growing shrubbery!  Disgusting.

[Ivylady]

Comcast is acting an ass, so I can only half-ass see what's happening. I'm struck, tho, by how much effort and energy Dr. Now put into helping Sean, but it was never enough. Sean ultimately didn't want to take care of himself. We can blame his mom, but he's an adult with access to counseling and world-class medical care. At the end of the day, he didn't want to try. 

[OoogleEyes]

Oh my God can you imagine what that apartment smells like and what kind of verman is running around in there? I pity his poor neighbors.
