Executive Summary

• Smit admits to struggling with extreme emotions and has stopped using drugs and alcohol.
• He is currently declining media appearances, including dating shows, to focus on his mental health.

The Incident: Nazi Accusations and Public Outbursts

In the fall, Smit was removed from the SBS 6 program “De Alleskunner VIPS” following misconduct.He reportedly accused the show’s editors of Nazi practices. This incident was followed by reports of Smit scolding people in shopping centers.

Diagnosis and Seeking Help

Smit has now revealed that he suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder. He told Party magazine, I always encounter that my emotions are too high. That is also the reason that it went wrong behind the scenes at the all -rounder VIPS last year. I live in extremes. If I am happy, I am very happy. But when I am angry, I am very angry.

He is actively seeking treatment. I went to my doctor and he found a personality disorder with me. I signed up at a clinic for personality disorders and I hope I can go soon.

Commitment to Recovery

Smit emphasizes his commitment to sobriety and seeking professional help.

I use zero drugs more, really zero zero zero. And no more drinks at all. I really stopped,because that was disastrous,a drama. That is what I can do myself, for the rest I hope for good help. I filled in the registration form and wrote ‘urgent, urgent, urgent.’

Rogier Smit

He expresses fear of his own behavior and social interactions. I can suddenly start scolding people. I have become afraid of myself. If someone says something to me or looks wrong, I can suddenly shoot entirely out of my shoe. I have even got a little fear of street. I am afraid to be among people.

Future Plans: Stepping Back from the Spotlight

Smit is currently declining media opportunities to focus on his recovery. I have been asked for two television programs, among other things a dating program. For that, I first thanked for that now. There is still a lot of work to do in the personal field, so I don’t think it is wise to work on TV now.

He wants to avoid further negative publicity.

Suppose I get another Akkefietje, just like with the all -rounder VIPS, then I get negative in the media again. I keep things like this from a distance. I am currently an unguided projectile and I want to get rid of that. I want to work on myself as soon as possible. I would like to be normal today. I want to be normal.
