I can tell you a couple things that I’ve heard/read. This is coming from multiple sources who were in Jared’s private session at nashcon. First of all, he said that he’s having a lot of anxiety. He even mentioned in the gold panel that he’s seeing his therapist twice a week right now. People have been speculating a lot about why that is but with the new baby coming, I understand it completely. Work is another factor- it’s been hard on him. He talked about how he and Jensen are actually confirmed through season 14 but mentioned the possibility of shorter seasons. He’s also helping with running the bar and he said that it will be a test kitchen for Jensen’s brewing company although they can’t actually join the businesses due to Texas laws.
The cutest thing from that session is that when Jared was talking about having a girl, he mentioned J.J. and called her “Birdy”.
Anyway, I think he just has a lot going on right now and it’s hard on him, but he’s doing his best. He’s getting professional help to get him through and that’s the best thing anyone can do.
EDIT: My friend who was at Jared’s nashcon thing said that Jared calling JJ “Birdy” came about because he was talking about how much he dotes on her and how he’s sure he’s going to be totally whipped by his new baby girl as well.
For the anon who wanted a better angle of Jensen nodding and laughing when Jared does his hand-smelling thing. Also there’s a little bit of Jensen butt going on in that last gif. (X)
