Legitimately felt depressed for her watching that vlog. I want to scream at her because it’s so clear what is going on and she’s been like this for years now. She REALLY needs to take charge of her life and mental health.
Her healing process sounds largely normal. I personally don’t think she really had ‘infections’, I presume she means bacterial infections as she mentioned antibiotics but then make a big fuss out of some nasty junk coming out of her nose. If she had a bacterial infection she would be seeing all sorts of nastiness on a daily basis. I wouldn’t put it past Gabby to misinterpret / exaggerate a mild cold or flu into what I presume she thinks was a sinus infection which isn’t unusual in flu season.
Anyway. The obsession with her health is really inhibiting her. I 100% believe that she enjoys being sick for the attention it gets her. She can revert back to being a child and have Mum look after her. I don’t know whether she is fully aware that she is deliberately doing this
She desperately needs therapy, proper medication and the beginnings of a routine. I don’t know how she can watch back her vlogs and not see the cycle she has been in for so long. Meanwhile she is getting bigger and bigger and feeling even worse about herself. I’ve always held back on commenting on her weight as having had an ED myself I just don’t think it’s the most important thing about someone. But she’s clearly spiralling SO badly.
