100%, it’s all now just another box ticked on a social content calendar. + Agreed Toffee, it’s always such shallow and self obsessed content with absolutely no time taken out to consider what role social media & SM influencers have upon ppl’s mental well-being.I'm finding that awareness days for serious topics like mental health, cancers, minority rights and many others are increasingly becoming just a check box on social media for a lot of people. In a way trivialised. Bung up a post on the relevant day, job done until next year. Heart disease one day, cookie day the next. It starts to become meaningless, and difficult to access links to real practical help and useful information if hashtags become flooded with "noise".
I think you can tell the difference between those who are genuine about a topic and putting in work throughout the year to try to make a difference however small, and those who are just posting because of an annual prompt on their social media calendar.
I'm tired after a long day and probably haven't explained this well. Hopefully you get the gist.
I'm worried about my eyes looking at his jumper.That post just feels so, so off after he's reeked of privilege all year.
I'm sure those who can't afford a big house, countless home projects, four overseas trips this year alone, festivals, clothes shopping sprees, expensive hobbies, etc, etc, will be relieved he's feeling less pressure after talking to Clemmie.
I'm sure those who face redundancy year-round or have actually lost their jobs will be comforted to know that he escaped redundancy (from a job where he hardly seems to actually have to do anything) that one time 2 months ago.
I'm sure those whose finances are crippled by cost of living increases feel so much better that he appears to have the option of not impacting his children's lives if he does a bit of budgeting.
Your "outward projection" of wealth, travel, material goods and lifestyle contributes to other people's mental health problems Simon. But you know that, and you don't give a shit. Look at the backdrop of your enormous home study while you reel off your faux "worries" in an attempt to be relatable for mental health day.

I think he borrowed it off one the his daughters, surely that is not a jumper for males.I'm worried about my eyes looking at his jumper.
You'd think those awareness days were created for Instagram. Give them something to talk about between the endless ads.I'm finding that awareness days for serious topics like mental health, cancers, minority rights and many others are increasingly becoming just a check box on social media for a lot of people.

His mother wrote that one.I am grateful to you!
Isn't she on a silent retreatHis mother wrote that one.
If he was my son I’d tell him I was on a silent retreat foreverIsn't she on a silent retreat
If I were him I’d be more concerned that it took my wife months to notice I was stressed. Dunno about anyone else but I’m pretty tuned into my husband. State of their marriageThis doesn't really add up, in particular the bit about staying silent for "months" with worry about:
View attachment 1641956
- cost of living increases (did that really impact them to a great degree months ago?)
- the threat of redundancy (two months ago according to him, around the time of the MW holiday/childcare)
- big jump in mortgage (seems odd - what exactly happened there if it was months ago when rates were still low?)
- getting less and less sleep (yet he was flogging sleep drops earlier this year and claiming they worked for him).
How convenient Clemmie "saw he was stressed" about finances in the short gap between their extravagent spending in Copenhagen (extra flight*, £100-£200 meals per night, drinks, multiple shopping sprees) and World Mental Health Day. Because as others have indicated, even if their flights and accom were pre-booked, their spending pattern on the Copenhagen trip sure as hell wasn't that of a couple on a small budget.
Even if they're feeling the pinch, they have scope and assets that so many people in desperate situations can only dream about. And don't even get me started on the whole "am I present enough for my girls?" and "I spend too much time on my own" thing, because that's a whole different rant. Lol.
* He was prepared on the spot to pay for an extra flight without any knowledge of whether that would cost £100, £500 or possibly even more.
also- yes to all this. He takes his followers for absolute mugs. My husband and I both work and we couldn’t afford one foreign holiday this year never mind 3-4, however many they’ve had. They stink of privilege. Hell mend them sat in that draughty house in a few years time when they’re having to pay for their daughters to have private therapy. Maybe they could put a couple of their kitchens on gumtree.This doesn't really add up, in particular the bit about staying silent for "months" with worry about:

I’m guessing they were on a variable rate mortgage and it’s either gone up in line with interest or they’ve decided to fix which would have been a bigger jump. I struggle to have sympathy it appears a lot of the MC mama lot were on variables and are now whinging, sorry but it’s a higher risk product that you’ve reaped the rewards of for however many years/decades of historically low interest rates and now you’re at the higher risk part, sorry huns. Once they got to 0.25% they were really only ever going to go one way (up!) so you should have been prepared for this?This doesn't really add up, in particular the bit about staying silent for "months" with worry about:

He seems to gave forgotten to add ‘I spend too much time filming my family to use as content for my insta’That post just feels so, so off after he's reeked of privilege all year.
