“I’m dying mentally”: Mr. Beast Gets Overwhelming Support After Revealing His Struggles With Meeting Weekly Content Demand
Renowned for his philanthropic YouTube stunt videos, Mr. Beast has solidified his position as one of the most highly paid content creators in the YouTube stratosphere. Jimmy Donaldson, the face of the channel, has ascended to the exclusive 100M YouTube Subscribers club. Mr. Beast’s channel secures the fifth spot in this prestigious league, after T-Series, Cocomelon, SET India, and PewDiePie.
Occupying a pinnacle position among YouTube channels, with an impressive user base of 2.1 billion monthly active individuals, bears substantial responsibility. Recently, Mr. Beast candidly opened up about his exhaustive video production schedule and his mental health, at the social media platform X, previously recognized as Twitter.
Mr. Beast on his retiring mental health
Jimmy Donaldson, known as Mr. Beast, embarked on his YouTube journey in 2012. However, it wasn’t until 2018 that his channel took off skies in popularity, thanks to his unique concept of generously gifting substantial sums of money to random individuals. This selfless approach earned him the title of a philanthropist.

Upon reaching the significant milestone of 100 million YouTube subscribers, Mr. Beast assumed a new responsibility: delivering top-notch content regularly to maintain his prominent position. Regrettably, this newfound commitment has taken a toll on his mental well-being.
In a recent post on his X account (formerly known as Twitter), he candidly shared his unwavering dedication to his craft, highlighting his determination to film videos daily to ensure a steady stream of content throughout the year.
“In order to upload weekly videos later this year I’ve been filming every single day (and only have a couple days off filming between now and end of year) and I’m dying mentally. I hope you guys love these videos when they go up, I’m pushing myself to the max to get them done 😭”

Jimmy, your work ethic is off the chart.
There are more sides to life than work.
I know you enjoy creating. If you're "dying mentally," take a break, watch some anime, and spend time with family.
Enhancing your greatness can wait, and so can we.
