Michael Beasley: And the third—the ultimate thing—is this: it all comes from abandonment issues. Like I told my friend the other day... I saw my family on a sinking ship. I saw them. I saw them let me do things I shouldn’t have. I saw myself acting in ways I shouldn’t have. But I was just scared to get off the boat—because that was the only family I had. It’s like choosing between two evils: Either I cut my family off and end up alone in this world, or I stay and just watch what they do—and die with them. Yeah. And unfortunately... I just chose to die with them. -via YouTube / May 26, 2025
