‘ABP’ Star Matt Brown Shares His Approach to Tackling New Problems

Former Alaskan Bush People star Matt Brown has been facing some tough times recently. He disclosed that he lost his job and is on the brink of losing his home. Matt plans to retreat up the mountain to live in the wilderness once again. Additionally, he has been dealing with someone hacking his phone and online harassment.

In light of these issues, Matt has shared how he is managing his current struggles.

Matt worried his Alaskan Bush People fans with a recent post, featuring a photo of him looking up, accompanied by reflective comments. He wrote, “It is as important to remember the people who help you in a time of need, who can’t get anything from you for it, as it is to remember the ones who don’t.”

This post alarmed some fans, especially since Matt had previously struggled with addiction issues before leaving Alaskan Bush People. Many fans were concerned that his recent problems might trigger a relapse.

The good news is that Matt followed up with a two-part video explaining how he handles his difficulties. Matt always maintains transparency with his fans. He mentioned that during his time at the Betty Ford rehab center, he learned a lot from his counselors.

In the first video, Matt hinted that he uses flash cards as part of his coping mechanisms. The second video showed him elaborating on this method. When he encounters something upsetting or realizes he is engaging in unproductive behavior, he pulls out these cards. On one side, he writes down the people and events in his life that are toxic or positive. On the flip side, he writes a “realistic assessment” of those people or events.

This practice helps him remember why certain things are harmful or beneficial, aiding him in making better decisions.

Despite the negativity from online trolls targeting Matt and his siblings from Alaskan Bush People, he has a significant number of supportive fans. These fans chimed in with comments to offer their encouragement.

Some of the comments included:

• “You got this Matt, Put your best step forward and take the next step!”
• “That’s a good principle. I do that sometimes too, just a little differently with pros and cons.”
• “Never give up on your true friends Matt they are always there for you no matter what.”
