And that's something really difficult to digest because I grew up with the perception of my brother being this great person that I want to follow his steps.

In that journey where he was becoming old to match, what do you think caused the...

And I think that made him feel responsible for men's health and men's

lives so i think that's that's when it twisted like he got this this messiah complex of like he's the one that has to fix it i think that validation became his fuel so he got super addicted to it he still is

Hola!

But eventually, someone who follows El Tamach's content does agree to talk to me.
