  1. Nobody even knows if Chris was aware of Jada's hair loss illness. I did not know as I am sure millions of people are not aware of Jada's hair loss illness. Plus I do not feel Chris was being hateful, hurtful or intended to hurt Jada or anybody. Geez

  2. It’s a Skin condition! I have vitalago, BFD! She is not courageous. She screws her son’s friends! This actor is a perfect example of why Dr. Drew should do this show alone. Puke!

  3. #1: Does ANYONE believe Smith was in a rational state of mind in the height of his episode?
    #2: Can we agree he was not in his "reasonable" mind?
    #3 Can we agree there were outside psychological influences before he left his house?
    #4: Two other FEMALE comics made two specific jokes that humiliated him on the world stage.
    #5: Rock's joke was about G.I. Jane MILITARY (Bad-ass) appearance (I might add is an attractive look, She wears it well), not a direct Alopecia attack, a filler joke. a 4 out of 10 joke.
    #6: Can we all agree Will Smith had a medically diagnosable breakdown, A nervous breakdown, an Emotional breakdown?
    Not excusable actions, but Does It Not explain the multiple facets of a mental breakdown.
    Just the Facts, Ma'am.

  4. Seemed impossible, but it’s been over 7 months and I don’t crave a drop of alcohol, the KEY difference was that I didn’t suffer withdrawal, not even within the first 30 days after I actually applied what I talked about. No need for AA meetings or meds either, I just luckily go’ogled Steffon Barkload’s latest, man, wish I had done it sooner.

  5. For people who condone wills behavior, can we slap all the people who make fun of bald/balding men? Or slap those who make fun of people including celebrities like Elizabeth Holmes, Michael Jackson, Alec Baldwin, Donald trump? Seriously think about it. And alopecia is not racial. It can be caused by tight hairstyles.. and maybe that could have a cultural slant but there are many types of alopecia. Men know it better than anyone. So next time you make fun of a man losing his hair, beware the slap.

  6. Drew makes fun of people with neurological disorders REGULARLY. Not sure if the guest has ever seen that unwatchable show called Your Mom's House? They all make money off of exploiting people with the most devastating medical conditions. Laughs and mocks them before diagnosing them on youtube! I don't know how that's allowed. Callous and inhumane.

  7. Why is everyone trying to reationalize Will's behavior- he should be discipline, probably arrested If you're angry- USE YOUR WORDS- it worked for my 4 yr old

  8. He was great in heroes, but more importantly I believe he was the player character in Condemned: Criminal Origins a phenomenal action adventure game classic of the early 2000s.
    I know hes done a lot of stuff but that's my favorite I think.

  9. I appreciate Drew making a fair remark that all of that event was on many levels a mess. It’s not straight forward as judge and jury people are making it.

  10. He has conflicted feelings about not being able to protect his mom from his abusive dad. That yelling he did would be normal to him. The hitting would be normal. He had an extreme over reaction over this issue of protection. He was trying to protect Jada. I think he has a deep wound around feeling helpless as a child to help his mom. Chris Rock rubbed salt in that wound. Probably that combined with whatever issues in his relationship with Jada or his mom that are presently weighing on him overtook him in the moment. He is probably as surprised by his reaction as everyone else is.

  11. I realize I am hyperaware as a parent of a child with epilepsy, but I am profoundly disappointed at Dr Drew’s laissez faire attitude toward the genuine and unique trauma a parent of an epileptic child goes through. Especially the lack of addressing SUDEP.

    The episode that Dr Drew has referenced when he was in medical school and had a panic attack and it saying to his doctors “it must be my thyroid”. I myself had a almost exact incident where as an EMT I am speaking through a non rebreather to fellow
    Medics saying that it must be my thyroid. This event was one of my first panic attacks as a result of PTSD of finally confronting our neurologist about my sons true risk of SUDEP after Cameron Boyce passed. Despite being under neurological care for >5.5 years at that point, NO neurologist had ever said anything. Let alone a pamphlet, etc.

    Basically, I know this is not your specialty etc…but bottom line I have been your fan since I was about 7 years old. Now at almost 37, I am just discouraged at your reaction to some of the things Greg brought up.

    Thank you Greg for using your platform. It truly is a certain trauma that we go through, and no one genuinely understands unless they live it.

  12. This is so ridiculous. You can’t keep health matters like that private and then expect for no one to ever notice or say anything that might offend you related to it. Had Chris Rock known that, there’s no way in hell he would’ve made that joke. But he didn’t know. So this entire thing is on Will Smith and his wife.

  13. This guy knows he's talking out of both ends and talking to a doctor. Yet hes not getting help lol. Guy has woke sickness and looks like he needs help.
