For an award winner money blogger she seems to fall victim to an awful lot of scams. Ahem Chinese Pallet.
She’s just always after a quick fix for something that she doesn’t think further than what she could potentially gain, completely ignoring any potential losses. A blind man and his dog could spot scams quicker than Emma ever could if there’s something too good to be true on offer.
She's too greedy to stop to think.
That's right Imma bring out your mental health when you're being berated for neglecting your Dad.
I’m sorry but what the duck does she have to be depressed about?! She never has to be uncomfortable, she’s a spoilt princess that gets to do exactly what she wants all day with a simping pathetic husband that worships the ground she walks on, she’s got her little show off dog, no money problems, no housing problems, a nice car?! I don’t get it?! I’d be despressed if I was her because I couldn’t cope with not being a functioning member of society & contributing to society but that’s the way she wants it so again wtf?! I was trying to stay away from here but nah she’s pissed me off now. Maybe instead of whinging on Insta or whining to drs use that money for some decent private therapy instead of wasting it on clothes that don’t fit all the bleeping time? Why should the already on its knees nhs pay for the treatment for this dubious depression?! bleeping “not ok” I can’t 
She’ll probably whack the wish list up tomorrow

Maybe she is depressed but do you know what really grinds my gears.. all through the pandemic all she has done is sat on her arse, moaning, bragging and neglecting her Dad. She has had it SO easy compared to some.
I have had to juggle childcare, face my own depression and anxiety and work every day meaning my child has had to go to school. I have not had the luxury of sitting at home, watching stupid videos to get free £20 vouchers to sell the crap I bought with the vouchers back on Ebay. Every day she never has much to be positive about.
She paid 10k.. 10K!! on some weight loss surgery and she can't stick to it. She joined a gym, can't stick to it. She buys a dog and can barely look after it. She has a parent who needs her, she can't sort his issues or point him in the right direction to get the right care.
Why does she not invest her time in getting help instead of banging on about the dose of tablet she is on and sounding off that better days are ahead. Better days are ahead, if you work on yourself and actually WANT to help yourself instead of using any cards you can to make excuses up for your lack of motivation and failures.
Get off your bum Emma and walk. Have structure to your day instead of eying up your next meal. Get a job for a few hours a day, so you can meet people and get some focus to your life.
Sorry for the rant but im sick of the pity card.

Before getting the Dr to check her vitamin levels she should probably address some of her lifestyle choices if she is serious about coping better with her depression. Emma I know you read here and these are genuine suggestions, doing them won’t make you feel worse, but they could make you feel better;
Talking therapy (CBT) NOT for ‘passenger anxiety’ but address your coping strategies for life in general.
Routine - it’s the summer now, maximise your exposure to daylight, train your body into the same bed time every night and get up at the same time every day.
Purpose - DO SOMETHING. Anything. Volunteer, genuinely help your Dad, get a job in a pet shop or a charity shop.
Diet and Exercise - Emma I 100% guarantee that nobody ever came away from the gym feeling worse than when they went in. I know it’s a slog being fat, I know sometimes you can’t be fucked going. On those days, walk outdoors instead. Make a commitment to yourself to walk for one hour each day and go to the gym three times. Your cysts will be fine stop making excuses. Eat as many different fruits and veg as you can and stay under 2,000 calories a day - the weight will drop off you. Take a vitamin D supplement.
Relationships - be a bit nicer to people. Stop being a smug twit, be who you really are not who you think is impressive on Instagram. The world is opening back up, clubs and networking/ socialising are back on. Check ‘meet-up’ for groups in your area that you could join, maybe doggy related walking club, if there isn’t one, start one. It’s daunting I know but get out there. If you volunteered even 1 day a month you’d make friends there, talk to people at the gym/ micro pool you swim in. It’s tough making friends as an adult but you need relationships that aren’t Tony.
You’re the only person in control of your life and you can have a brighter future if you take control of it.

I know that this is controversial and I might get some heat for saying it, but here goes: I do wonder whether Emma mistakes pure laziness for depression?
I know that I only see snippets of her life, but her default mode seems to be playing the victim and blaming everything on some external force instead of taking responsibility for her life. Whenever she declares that she's sick/has anxiety/has depression/is having a nope day, Tony runs rings around her like a personal butler - I find it so manipulative! She also seems to use her mental health as a reason to practice "self-care" by treating herself to online shopping and junk food.
ETA: If Emma is actually depressed, upping her dosage of antidepressants isn't going to be a magic cure. She needs therapy to address the root cause of her depression. But that means that she would have to actually want to change and have to actually put some effort into something!

Just effing grow the eff up Emma, take some responsibility for YOURSELF instead of expecting external factors to fix you, YOU have got to put the hard work in to fix yourself...banging on about vitamin deficiencies then eating salt and pepper chicken and chips, where’s the vegetables & nutritional value? The already overstretched NHS can’t fix you, chucking £10K away for private WLS surgery didn’t fix you, YOU are the only one who can put the effort in, my favourite mantra is “if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got!”.
I think you've all got it spot on. The thing with Emma though is she doesn't want to sort herself. She was having therapy, then stated that she discovered something she wasn't ready to deal with.
Emma, that is therapy, its not meant to always be enjoyable, you will discover times that make you feel uncomfortable. That is how an adult will deal with things. Work together with a good therapist, which you portray the image you could afford to have a few times a week, you will be amazed and how good you'll feel long term.

Completely agree with all that’s been said before.
Mental health issues can strike anyone in any situation so despite Emma having an “easy” life, your brain doesn’t take anything like into consideration.
HOWEVER....Emma does absolutely zero to help herself, and as mentioned above she ran away from therapy when it got hard. She eats utter tit, never moves her body at all, wallows in her pit to reward herself for a hard day and then again when she’s having a bad day - her brain is confused! She can’t differentiate between a good day and a bad day because they all result in tit food and lying in bed.
I’ve mentioned a few times on here that I’ve hit rock bottom twice in the last 6 years (once where I had to be rescued from the side of a motorway as I didn’t know what I was going to do). And even in the absolute depths of despair and being completely and utterly broken, I still did absolutely everything to help myself. On the bad days, everything was making sure I got out of bed and had a shower, on a good day I’d tackle a huge to do list and stick to a rigid routine to help me get back on track. I too was on the highest dose of antidepressants but it wasn’t my only form of attack/defence. I didn’t sit back and wait for medication to do the heavy lifting, I worked my arse off to get my life back. I had therapy a few times and one particular series broke me in ways I didn’t know possible but the therapist had to do just that in order for me to be able to put myself back together. I’ve been “well” for 3 years now and I swear that it’s because I’m in a job i absolute love now, I have a great work/life balance, I lead a much healthier, active lifestyle and my life is filled with so much that brings me joy. I may not have much money but my word, I’ve got a lot to love in my life and that is what makes the biggest difference!
Emma needs a new job where she is accountable to someone else and where she actually does something to make a difference in the world. She needs a major diet and exercise overhaul. She needs to stop spending altogether and start finding pleasure in non-material things. And go to therapy!
As someone who’s got major depressive disorder I’m not going to question or give my opinion over Emma’s mental health, at the end of the day none of us have absolutely zero idea of anyone’s mental health struggles and assuming it’s this or that or do this or that is ignorant and isn’t helping anyone.
I say good on Emma for contacting her Dr to discuss it. Hopefully she can find the right tools to get through to the other side of it.

Good on her?! I mean they’re already throwing the highest dose of meds at it and that isn’t working because it’s not meds she needs, it’s a complete lifestyle overhaul with people in her life that actually hold her accountable instead of just simping around her, but she isn’t prepared to do that so on and on the tit show will rumble. Good on her for wasting precious nhs time and resources when she could easily pay privately, you go girlboss

I’m not surprised Emma is feeling depressed, she is a failure in most aspects of her life, she has no purpose and no drive. However instead of helping herself she expects someone or something to sort it for her.
Emma is all about instant gratification and would rather take medication (or in this case increase it) instead of improving herself. Exercise, eating better, routine, work, socialising, volunteering, haircut, wash, therapy etc will help her feel miles better.
She is so quick to give up, any sign of negativity and it’s a nope day. She gave up on her therapy because she was cured and didn’t want to address deeper issues which I think is the route of all this.

I would like to see both her and Tony have an adult autism evaluation. I think they both need a therapist who understands these sorts of issues. Unfortunately her father can't continue to enable her behaviour but Tony does and I think that is unlikely to change unless they can understand what is hapening. I don't think a few pills will make everything alright. If she had taken Poppy to puppy school this week she would have met more dogs and their owners. I know it is hard to start doing things that are out of your comfort zone but that is the only way things are going to change for Emma. It still does not make it O.K. to make your living scamming the vulnerable and it does not some how make you better than them.
