Top Comments of this video!! :3
These were the kind of theories that I was really scared of loosing when Mat left. The ones that start out talking about the media we all love and then, go into real world things and really help remind me and ground me in the world. That short made me cry when I first saw it. These depictions of these disorders are getting better, more accurate and are helping with acceptance and normalization of really difficult things. Thank you Lee, this was a wonderful video 😊

I deal with anxiety, and I've dealt with panic attacks on a semi-regular basis. Therapy has helped so much with giving me the tools to manage my anxiety. This short really connected with me because of this, and this episode did a great job exploring that territory. I hope, if anyone watches this video and it resonates with them, that it helps them realize they're not alone, and that they can overcome anxiety. It's a lot of work, and I personally still have road ahead of me, but it's a lot more manageable already. Thanks for shining a spotlight on this issue.

This reminds me of that one episode from the Teen titans(the original, not TTGO) animated series where Robin was fighting Slade but he is literally the only one who sees Slade. None of his friends could see Slade.
When Robin finally calm down with the help of his friends. "Slade" finally vanishes. There was no Slade to begin with. It was all in his mind. Hallucinations due to mental stress and PTSD.
The episode ended with Robin turning off the lights to double check if Slade is still there. There was no Slade at all.
That was a very dark episode for me when I was a kid. Back then, I didnt even know what mental health is and how realistic that experience is irl.

Something I would like to add, Miles in the comics had similar problems with anxiety to the point that his Spidersense would randomly go off without there being any threat or just not work at all, when it mattered. He did get help and actual therapy later on to help him deal with it.
I can only recommend Ziglar's current run with Miles. It's really amazing and great for his character.

I had a huge panic attack a year ago followed by much smaller ones, but the first was out of nowhere and it was the most scary thing I've ever lived thru; I was literally talking and playing with a board game with my friends when I suddenly had all the symptoms that they mentioned on the episode, specially the whole body tingle. I did as best as I could to stay calm and relax but it was impossible, my mind was struggling to focus on anything but "staying alive", I felt my breathing starting to shorten until I gave in and went to the hospital a few minutes later without anyone knowing. The doctors after calming me and relaxing me with both medicine and chat, just ruled out I had a panic attack with no real evident cause so I had to go to a psychiatrist to check me and actually rule out something, I ended going and not really sorting what really caused it, it seemed to be a mix of a bad sleep schedule and lack of exercise (After coming back from a month-long trip that made me walk about 20k steps a day, it seemed my mind made me think I had stored excess energy that I wasn't burning it made me feel like I needed to release it, apparently) made both me and my body crash down hard when the stress built up, luckily I tackled it as early as I could and nothing bad came out and it took me some months to fully recover from it.
In the end this episode was almost word-by-word what happened to me, to the point it was a bit funny to see my experience being described in this episode and made me want to write this comment, just to share all of this, hopefully this also helps someone or gives a better perspective on what the episode was about!

It's interesting to see how the Spider-Verse weaves in aspects of mental health alongside traditional superhero narratives. This in-depth interpretation is impressive. It drives home the fact that superheroes, despite their superpowers, also experience human emotions and struggle with problems like everyday people.

I think the reason Insomniac Miles (IM) gets a pass while Sony Miles (SM) doesn't is because the spider that bit IM was from his universe, unlike the one that bit SM. In SM's universe, the blonde Peter was supposed to be the only Spider-Man in that world, while in the Insomniac-verse, there was meant to be both a Peter Parker and Miles Morales Spider-Man in that world. More than one Spider-Man can exist in a single universe (otherwise characters like Silk don't align with the canon), it's just that that wasn't meant to be the case in SM's universe.

The spider Within really does a fantastic job showing anxiety in a realistic way,I understood the allegory immediately and related to it as someone with anxiety (generalized) Lee I appreciate you for bringing attention to anxiety disorders and the team for researching seriously,I learned some new things myself

Hey man just wanted to say you really spoke to me because I've been struggling with alot of spiritual anxiety and not knowing how to handle the sudden fear attacks or the sudden unease and I'm working through it but just hearing you talk about it how to treat it letting us know we aren't alone in this (obviously we have Christ through everything but still) it really helped me calm down so thanks man I appreciate it

One of Matt’s last theories was how there’s no good role models in media anymore or that they’re being erased/mocked. It was good seeing miles confide in a father figure who’s actually his father. It’s hard enough finding good father figures let alone good fathers and this short just lets a dad be a dad. So good
