Yep, I have seen the system up close, albeit this was over 20 years ago. More recently someone close to me was sectioned (their second time) so I’ve had a front row seat to the NHS’s MH decline (although it wasn’t very good in the 90s and early 00s either) and I’ve also seen how people who are able to articulate and advocate for themselves get much better access to treatment than those deemed as “others”.
I hear what you’re saying about explanations, but she’s been like this before, hyper attention seeking post break up. Sure it’s not mentally sound behaviour, but I think she’s that privileged that if she’s got to the grand old age of 34 without engaging properly and honestly in treatment despite multiple opportunities, then that’s on her, and she’s a twazzock.
I’m finding it all very funny, though.
Evening all-first time commenter here! Sorry if this has been covered in previous threads, but isn’t JM a non-binary transgender? I remember reading years ago about this and recently found a HuffPost article from 2016 saying ’they’ were diagnosed as trans in 2015. Sorry if this is old news!!
100% agree. I’m actually quite conflicted in how I feel. I wouldn’t be surprised if she tweets tomorrow to say she didn’t make her year (although if that is the case, she probably just won’t bring it up). I’ve stayed open minded when others have thought she’s picked up but whether she has drank alcohol or not, this is surprising behaviour for someone so into AA they’re a secretary. Sadly I have seen people in that position thoughYikes. I feel bad for laughing earlier. I should have know better, I had a feeling this might be the kind of chaos that starts out hilarious then quickly turns “omg wtf”.
I don’t even know if I feel sorry for her. It’s all so performative, like others have said. If she wasn’t sharing all this on Twitter then, it wouldn’t be a big deal. What if this teacher she’s matched with sees what she’s just been tweeting?!
I definitely think for sure that Harold was real, but she didn’t love him, she was just using him for her own needs (mortgage, etc) and for narc supply.
. If she is dishonest about AA then it really is only her she’s hurting.I’ve recently had an AA birthday and they’re still quite reflective for me. Thinking back to my 1st birthday, my lovely dad was really poorly and I had been called to say they didn’t think he would make the night. Those are different circumstances to being dumped and they’re probably not even comparable…but I know I had worked hard on myself in that first year and something like that was obviously tough, but I felt equipped to deal with it.
I loved my first birthday meetings. It was a real privilege and I also got the chance to thank the people of the groups for loving me until I could love myself, not judging me when I was in and out, turning up drunk etc. This is a merail (sorry!) but I just pick up the vibe that Jack has never really allowed herself the chance to work on her. The chance to look at her behaviours and what motivates them and to be honest, whether she has drank in the last 12 months, getting the chip will be quite bittersweet for her. Unless of course she really can’t see anything wrong in her behaviour.

A live chaos? On a Tuesday? Jack hun, put the phone down. I've cringed to death and come back to life, but genuinely a wee bit concerned about how manic (I don't use that word to be a smartarse) this all is.
We can hook them up with Graham from Linda McCartney. A wee support group.
This is…not right. WHO shares this much info? Also who has the time for that level of messaging, let alone dates organised?!
I met MY OH on Bumble so no shade re Tinder, but this is insane.

She's celebrating with schlong
Especially when Jack works 20 hour days. Unless she is doing the messaging in her tea breaks.
Is that bloke on the black sofa ex OH? It looks like he sounded?!
Hopefully she's remembered to feed the poor dog and cat in between all this chaos.
Soundtrack to the thread so far
ETA: I honestly think this is approximately 70% performance Vs 30% real. LJC came back as bubble buddy when Jack was struggling, maybe she thinks she can still get OH back, or at least make him regret dumping her and show how quickly she's moved on. It's like how kids would handle a breakup in high school/uni
Because sperm banks don’t pay maintenance or babysit.
For actual duck's sake, I picked the wrong day to be in the office.
Jack might be the first person Tinder bans for sending unsolicited food pics.

I hope there is some real-life stuff happening behind the scenes, for SB's sake more than Jack's, she is not well. She had piss poor judgement in getting a puppy hoping it would mend her broken heart. She hasn't put up any photos since the one of Coops closely trailing after Laurie (4 days - which in Jack's time is like a fortnight). It's all so grim considering there is a child and two animals involved.
Just a quick reminder that she's posting all this on her WORK Twitter account
More cringe.
I hope she's not doing this to 'show' mithering ninnies or twitter trolls because she's just making herself look like a walloping twit.
