PewDiePie brought to tears over fan\u2019s emotional message YouTube – PewDiePieYouTube star Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2018 Kjellberg had an emotional response to a fan message after learning he had helped him get through a bout of depression. PewDiePie has a fan-run subreddit called PewDiePie Submissions, where fans will post memes and messages for the star to feature in his LWIAY (Last Week I Asked You) episodes. During his video on September 20, he scoured through the subreddit in search of content, and after looking through several memes, he came across a particularly emotional submission. The video is titled \u201cThis Reddit post got me teared up\u2026\u201d \u2013 and while he doesn\u2019t actually get that post until the end of the video, he does have a surprisingly emotional reaction to the post from a long-time fan at the 21:20 mark. This fan explained that they first started watching PewDiePie videos in 2014, and said his content helped with their self-harm and eating disorder issues. PewDiePie\u2019s own struggles in school gave the viewer something to relate to, and they explained how these hardships helped them feel less alone in the world. The YouTube star responded to the heartwarming post with a sincere message and motivation for the viewer to keep going. \u201cThat\u2019s so sweet,\u201d he replied, fighting back tears. \u201cThe feels out of nowhere. Keep staying strong, I\u2019m proud of you.\u201d It was an unexpected moment in an otherwise upbeat and funny video, but it goes to show how much impact a content creator can have on another person\u2019s life.
