    California Dreamin’… of Texas | The REAL Story with Dr. Phil
    Jun 28 2025

    They say no one leaves paradise — but they haven’t looked at California lately.

    California has the beaches, the sunshine, and the red tape.
    Texas has no income tax, booming jobs, and a working blueprint for the American Dream.

    Today on The Real Story: Why we made the move — and why businesses like Tesla, Oracle, Realtor.com, and John Paul Mitchell are doing the same.

  • “Bigorexia” Pushed On Social Media

    “Bigorexia” Pushed On Social Media
    Jun 27 2025

    Young men wanting to be muscle influencers but using performance enhancement drugs say they are suffering from “bigorexia” or muscle dysmorphia. Is social media to blame?   

    According to a recent study from the Center for Countering Digital Hate, there have been 420 million views of videos on Tik Tok pushing steroids to teens. Some experts say that trend is creating young men to develop "bigorexia," or muscle dysmorphia. Senior anchor for News on Merit Street investigates on how easy it is for teens to order illegal performance enhancement drugs online. Ryan says he was able to get these drugs online when he started bodybuilding to follow in his father, Shawn’s, footsteps. He started posting his journey online and developed a huge following. At just 16 years old, Ryan says his muscle gains plateaued. So he found another way to get to superhero status until he went blind. Plus, we meet Colton who says he’s using steroids now and looking to launch himself to internet stardom at whatever cost. But his fiancée Alex says she wants Colton to stop using steroids because it turns him into an angry person full of rage. And Callum Hood, head researcher at the Center for Countering Digital Hate, tells Dr. Phil about the study he led focusing on how Tik Tok videos promote steroid-like drugs. And Dr. Thomas O’Connor is a board-certified doctor of internal medicine and professor at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine. He's also known as the “Anabolic Doc” who knows firsthand what it’s like to be addicted to performance enhancement drugs.

My daughter has been stalked and abused by a man that is a horrific narcissist. Restraining orders and arrests don’t seem to stop this guy. He terrifies all of us, especially her children. This has been going on for almost 6 years! He thinks he is Gods gift to the world. Dr Phil, thank you SO much for the clarity. Bless your heart ❤️

Love this, Dr. Phil. I was married to a narcissist for 17 years, I wish I would have had this information much sooner. Being free from this person is like being able to finally breathe again. So excited for the rest of my life!
