I've never seen someone want to be ill so badly as Gabbie does. She is the biggest hypochondriac out there.
New thread suggestion:
Gabriella Lindley #6: Over-dramatic kidney infection, can someone stage an intervention?

I really didn’t want to post but she’s tipped me over the edge.
I’m training to be a clinical psychologist and my mum is an NHS counsellor.
We are bound by certain codes of practice in both our roles, I’m not sure what type of therapist she has seen but, generally speaking, they all work within the same guidelines (which they will have had to demonstrate a working knowledge of quite thoroughly in order to be qualified to actually treat people).
Initial sessions are always an assessment. ALWAYS.
You can’t begin to treat someone without first getting their history etc so all a therapist will do is ask lots of questions...
No one has ever challenged her and she has lived a very sheltered life.
My guess, as others have said, is that the therapist asked probing questions which made her uncomfortable (therapy isn’t comfortable at first) and she’s done the typical Gabby thing of blaming the person instead of taking any responsibility whatsoever for her own behaviours.
She has a large platform and her bratty behaviour could influence others to not reach out for help which is incredibly dangerous. She’s a grown woman. She needs to get off social media and work through her plethora of issues before she does some real damage.

She's worried about the weed, but not the constant paint fumes that fill the apartment. Idiot.

"I would give anything to be in Les Mis"
Apart from get off my arse, leave my flat, attend auditions, start from the bottom, work hard...etc etc...
She is hoping that someone high up in a West End theatre will just offer her the lead in a musical. The YouTube generation are all so entitled.
Niomi Smart thinks she's a chef. Zoe Sugg thinks she's a author. Tanya Burr thinks she's an actress...
I am so fed up of these entitled individuals that think just because they were relevant a few years ago, and have a reasonable social media following that they can literally have everything handed to them on a plate.
Gabby wants to be on the West End, yet doesn't appear to be doing anything to achieve that dream. She posts snippets of her singing and hopes someone will notice. Her attitude, and the attitude of the countless others on YouTube, make a mockery of genuine people who work hard to achieve their dreams.
Side note, she definitely thinks she is an interior designer now; and all because she bought a flat and redecorated 1489 times in a year.

‘Names don’t have a gender’ hasn’t she always gone on about her favourite boy and girls names? Such a hypocrite!

She’s such a hypocrite. She needs to check her own comments before she lectures anyone else. Here is just one example.

She’s left the house more during this crisis than she has the past 6 months
“When it comes to work, I’m an overachiever” is she deluded??? Has she looked at the ‘content’ she puts out??? That’s not work and certainly not overachieving at it lmao.
Also the fact she’s had 10 items sent to her in about a month is crazy to me considering most youtubers get more than that per week. She really is irrelevant

Going to get a bit personal here but I suffered with mental health issues really really badly about 5-6 years ago. I spent the best part of a year in a psychiatric unit because of it. And yeah maybe she is overreacting, but maybe her therapist was a complete bitch. It’s possible. I’ve had my fair share. All under the NHS too so the first appointment only being an assessment isn’t necessarily true- it may be how things are supposed to be done but it’s definitely not how they are always done, and she may not be under the NHS either.
I met my first therapist when I was about 12. My dad was really unwell and I was isolating myself because I wasn’t coping well with it, so my school referred me and she was horrific. Not in just a ‘I feel uncomfortable talking about this’ kind of way because I wanted to talk about it, and I did to my teachers. But she was just nasty, rude, judgemental and I got upset so I ran out of the room crying my eyes out and my teacher actually put in a complaint on my behalf after I told her what happened. When questioned she admitted it all (I didn’t realise at the time but another teacher was in a separate room and could actually hear what was being said, so she couldn’t exactly deny it when another member of staff heard it). Looking back I would say it’s still the worst therapy experience I’ve ever had so if hers was anything like that, I get it. I really do and I feel bad for her. It put me off of going to therapy for years and I wish I hadn’t let it do that but it had taken a lot for me to accept the help and to have a bad experience ruined it for me.
Then I got a bit older and things got a bit more complicated and I was referred to a more specialised therapist. He was incredible. He changed my life to the point that it’s been about 5 years since I last saw him and I still consider reaching out to him to do some private therapy sessions because it was like WOW, finally someone gets it. It wasn’t easy. We basically spent 6 months in silence and he even wrote that in the card he gave me when I left therapy- it must have been torture for him trying to make conversation with me. Then one day it clicked. And I started talking and explained what was going on and then I went into hospital and he drove once or twice a week to see me in the hospital after work as he was worried that once I was discharged we’d be back at square one in building the patient-therapist relationship again. But that didn’t happen and I managed to work through issues that I never thought I’d overcome. I owe him my life and that is why despite my bad experiences, I would always recommend that people keep trying with therapists until you find one that you click with. You can’t expect it to happen instantly but I also know that you can tell instantly when you are NOT going to click with a therapist.
Whilst in hospital I also had to partake in the therapy that they offered, which I was fine with. I attended therapy with a guy from South Africa, he was harmless, I nodded and smiled and answered his questions and then left. I didn’t get much out of it but it gave me an easier life because they could tick the box on their to do list. It was something to pass the time and just nice to have a conversion with someone different for an hour a week I guess.
And then came my second awful experience. She ended up being banned from communicating with me because the way she handled a particular situation (in front of other patients and members of staff too). I don’t want to go into the details but it was horrible, I was a very quiet, shy and terrified person at the time and she was the complete opposite of what I needed in a therapist. Three nurses put in complaints against her because of how she treated me which is why she ended up being banned from any form of communication with me as she became detrimental to my recovery.
I had a couple of other experiences that weren’t too bad but they weren’t great either. And I’ve also had a really nice therapist since. I can’t say much helped me long term with the most recent one but it helped me cope with life at the time so it worth it.
I guess what I’m trying to get across is that therapists can have all the credentials and qualifications in the world but if they don’t have empathy and can’t adapt to the needs of each individual then it just isn’t enough. I’d hate to think that people looked at my situations and thought it was me that was the problem in those circumstances when in reality it was other people who had no obligation to be on ‘my side’ that stepped in and did something about it, because they knew it was the ‘professionals’ that were in the wrong.
I truly hope that she finds a therapist she can connect well with and that she doesn’t let this set her back or stop her from looking for a new one. But I do understand that you build yourself up and when it isn’t how you expect it to be it can be very upsetting and disheartening. There’s a lot I don’t like about Gabby from what I’ve seen of her online but my main concern is that somebody who has had a bad experience with a therapist will read this thread and think they are the problem rather than the therapist when in reality that may not be the case at all.
anyway sorry for rambling I won’t say anything else on the matter now. I just had to make sure anyone reading knows that they aren’t to blame or to feel guilty if they didn’t get on well with a therapist in the past

ok so I've never posted on this thread before so hi haha but has anyone seen her latest instagram stories? How can you show the amount of weight you've lost and then in the next story say that you don't want to talk about it. You know people will ask questions about how you've done it etc, if it is really that triggering for you I don't understand why you'd even mention anything to do with that if you didn't want anyone else to ask questions.
