'Young people started watching people live their lives, instead of living their own lives. And those lives they were watching, were fantasies'

Dr Phil has revealed the real reason behind why he quit his popular television show, with the talk show icon explaining that he has done everything that he "set out to do".

"So you are ending your show this spring after 21 years on the air. And over all that time you have either been the number one or the number two most watched show in daytime syndicated talk shows. So why stop now?" Chris asked Dr. Phil. He also spoke of how he wanted his show to "talk about the things that had such a stigma about them that you just didn't talk about them", adding: "And I really wanted to push mental illness to the forefront of the narrative in America."

"And young people started watching people live their lives, instead of living their own lives. And those lives they were watching, were fantasies, and we compare our reality to other people's fantasy. And by comparison, we come away feeling worse about ourselves."
