The Dr Disrespect persona is all about Speed, Violence, and Momentum, sometimes resulting in over-the-top behavior, but underneath that is a former developer Guy Beahm. Dr Disrespect is the type to be banned from Call of Duty: Warzone 2, while Beahm is the type to provide unique insight into game dev, connect with his fans, and support his community (who, in turn, have supported him). A recent donation is proof that Dr Disrespect is more than a pair of sunglasses and a mustache.

Dr Disrespect doesn't break character often, though it has happened by surprise before. It is often an emotional moment when Beahm come out, as he has done to apologize and take accountability for his actions or respond to fans who need him to be serious.

During a recent stream, Dr Disrespect received a $10 donation from a United States Marine who revealed that a friend and fellow Marine had committed suicide. The viewer would go on to say that he and his friend loved watching Dr Disrespect's streams and say that his streams help people through dark times, even when the Doc doesn't know it. The Marine thanked him and ended with Semper Fidelis, a Marine motto meaning "Always Faithful." Doc sits there and stumbles over how to pronounce Fidelis, but it's clear by his facial expressions that he's trying not to break. Even with the shades on, it's clear by his body language that Doc is really hit by the message.

After saying sorry to hear that and taking a moment, Dr Disrespect responds with a "I'm sure your friend's still watching." It's a heartwarming response to a heartbreaking situation, and as pointed out by Redditor Jasonclark2, it's often clear how serious donations like these result in Doc's countenance changes. It's really sobering to see the Doc try to swallow emotions and give an appropriate response, something often appreciated by his community. Sometimes in a situation like this, there's not really a good response, but perhaps Doc's words will make watching his streams a time when the friend can feel connected to his fallen fellow, instead of being heartbroken by it.

A study published in September 2022 suggested that Veteran suicide was double federal estimates, putting it closer to 44 US Veteran deaths a day. Per Military Times, this study seeks more accurate tracking methods and access to such information "to improve public discussion on the issue of veteran suicide prevention."
