Dr. Les Carter with an unknown female

Dr. Les Carter toughest fight

Presented with a new patient suffering from stage-IV malignant terminal narcissist disorder with chronic blame deflection syndrome would prove a whole new challenge for our favorite Doctor. Nothing could have ever prepare him for what was about to come.

First Appearance

The first appearance of Dr. Les Carter occurs in July 18, 2024, during forsen's League of Legends era. This was not the first link donation on the stream discussing narcissism, but it was the one that would ultimately establish Dr. Les Carter as the face of opposition against narcissist-sen fragile ego.

Confrontation

The patient would try to discredit Dr. Carter, only to further prove his points by embodying the very traits he describes. As pointed out by a r/forsen user:

Narcissists smirk when pressed > Forsen smirks.
Narcissists get sarcastic when they posses no arguments > Forsen becomes sarcastic to respond.
Narcissists do lot of character assassination > "This guy is retarded, look at the green screen behind him".

Forsen's live therapy session

During the February 24th, 2025, link reaction intro we get a legendary streak of 8 back to back Dr. Les Carter videos (-$160 ). This is, at the date, the closest we have ever gotten to a live therapy session on stream. Note how at 16:20 into the video Forsen raises his voice to talk over Dr. Carter, at the precise moment he is talking about how narcissists fight over control. You cannot make this shit up.

Recurring guests

Forsen's narcissism proved to be way too strong for the doctor to handle alone, so from time to time he would call for support, inviting his colleague to join the therapy sessions:

"No further Dr. Les Carter videos"

On February 21, 2026, Forsen bans any further links from Dr. Carter's "Surviving Narcissism" YouTube channel, explaining:

“Yeah this is the problem with this guy, he talks about the same thing every video, so I cannot keep track if we have seen it or not. I literally cannot[...]. Alright, from today on out no more surviving narcissism videos [...]." - Forsen

Obviously, this is nothing more than another classic technique of narcissistic manipulation: asserting his power over the stream by deciding which content is allowed to be shown and eliminating material that directly challenges his narcissism. In doing so, Forsen attempts to manipulate his viewers into seeing him as the unquestionable authority, positioning himself above both the content and those who challenge him.

Narcissistic Avoidance

Being overwhelmed by the truth, Forsen resorted to avoid videos where Dr. Les Carter is present. He would declare that he needs to "rinse his plate" (even though his plate was already rinsed) or just leave after saying "one second, i need to get my water" or other similar excuses. This is a recurring theme during multiple donations:

This can be understood as a form of escaping confrontation: When faced with uncomfortable material, the narcissist may physically remove himself from the conversation rather than engage with it.

Doctor last video on his channel

Sadly on July 31st, 2025, during the prime of Forsen's 2025 League of Legends arc, Dr. Les Carter announces his retirement of his main YouTube channel. Narcissist-sen proved as the only patient he could not cure nor help.

Bajs find a loophole

After the hobo ban on the main Dr. Les Carter YouTube channel, donos simply resorted to link videos on which Dr. Les is a guest, typically hosted by the channel of a colleague.

More examples of Forsen raging narcissism

Narcissistic Deflection

Here Forsen makes one of his classic shit plays and gets angry at his teammate. This is a textbook example of narcissist deflection as seen explained by Dr. Les in the video bellow.

This is what we call narcissistic deflection: the inability to accept personal responsibility, combined with an almost immediate need to locate someone else who can be held accountable. The play may have been his, but somehow, the team is always guilty.

Display of Narcissistic Dominance

During one of forsen's LIDL games playtroughs, Dr. Les Carter was unjustified kicked from the lobby. Another classic display of forsen's malignant narcissism.

Kicking Dr. Carter from the lobby can be viewed as another example of malignant narcissistic behavior: rather than tolerate someone who challenges his self-image, Forsen removes the perceived threat altogether. The act becomes less about the game itself and more about silencing an unwanted opposition through direct retaliation.
