Sam Sulek has something terribly wrong with his mental condition.

[HMD]

He seems like a rational person but for some reason, he’s killing himself. It’s slightly disturbing to watch him talk about the way he eats and then there is his breathless way of speaking. 
 

I am not sure if he is doing it for the love and attention. Because if that’s the case then he’s probably a narcissist with an under-developed ego that might have endured some trauma. And because of this he needs massive attention to sustain his sense of self.

[Carl-Richard]

He is young, passionate and aesthetically-oriented, not unlike many spiritual people, artists, etc. He just chose bodybuilding as his passion. When done to the extremes, it has certain trade-offs, like most things done to the extremes. I spent my late teens/early twenties frying my brain with weed (later replaced with meditation), sitting in the woods thinking about crazy stuff and listening to music, neglecting school, friends, etc. It's partially a part of being young, and some people are more extreme than others, and there might be some trauma and insecurities involved too. Still, despite the obvious trade-offs, you can still have a highly reasonable, insightful and inspired person underneath. Seeing the need for balance is something that comes with age.
