It sounds like you have good awareness about your behaviour. That's always the first step to changing it (if you want to change it). I'd say there's nothing wrong at all with a variety of interests and trying out new things, but it's the trying out new personalities that's not particularly healthy. Just accepting who you are and learning to love yourself, with all your good and bad bits, is really freeing. You can still enjoy trying out stuff or going through certain phases, but your true self will always be at the core of it. I'm no expert, but I'm sure that's a healthier way to live life. Please believe you can live a life you deserve without hiding behind masks.

The title may seem harsh to some but she literally wrote it herself? They're her words.

I get that nobody wants to read their darkest thoughts about themselves but also... don't put these things out on a public profile with a quarter of a million followers?

Sorry if I seem horrible, I just think she's an absolute drain.

On a lighter note, those trainers with those dad jeans really remind me of Homer Simpson in his Assassins...

I am all about DMs even in my 30s. I don't care what people think. I love them

Babe, same. I haven’t seen your other posts so don’t know if you have a diagnosis or even feel as if you need one, but there’s so much you can read about online regarding this and what may have caused it. Peeling back the layers until it’s just your genuine self (I promise she’s in there somewhere!) is a fascinating experience, like getting to know a whole new person. I recommend digging into it if you’re in an okay place mentally

Have to say I have less sympathy for Jack due to her selling her identities and getting aggressive with those who can’t keep up etc...

A chiropodist I saw told me ASICS were really good for painful feet. He was wearing some. I don’t know what style number though. I quite like some of the New Balance ones.

I definitely don't look.cool. but I look like me. And I like myself. Even when I wear tragic mum clothes. I'm at peace with it.

Possibly but pre kitten and all the ED triggers I might have agreed now I think she knows exactly what she is doing as illustrated by the lake picture earlier

Hate to be the person who brings it up again but just fleetingly for a sec. One thing that struck me at the time and I won't forget it, is when (in the middle of kitten-gate) she said that she wouldn't be sharing the medical details of the cat because "people have to spoil things". She was f*cking furious that she couldn't get away with the bullshit. And what did she do a few days later when she legit saw a vet? Shared more than she ever, ever should have. She was on top of the world!

That's what I think is so important really. I know it's cliche but it would be a boring world if we all dressed the same.

I totally agree with what @MancBee just said. I do feel a teeny tiny bit sad for JM, in that she’s recently had a break-up and has totally ruined her chances of getting any paid cooking tv jobs after the Hellman’s shocker. But, all of these things are her own doing. She seems to be the architect of her own misfortune, but chooses to blame others for things that go wrong for her. And if it isn’t that, then it’s one of her many ailments that cause her to do ‘a chaos’ (for which she will eventually apologise.) And as for the pity party/sad fishing on social media, it’s absolutely pathetic! Pets die, relationships break down. It’s not ideal, but people deal with it. JM seems to milk her followers for sympathy with her lies and they fall for it every time.

Yes, it's easy to forget because we've had no chains in Scotland, train journeys, Greek ancestry and trainers since, but she shared EVERYTHING about the kitten once she finally got to the vet.

Oh god sorry I hope I haven't upset anyone in saying this - I've only been a catty cow because she pleads poverty yet has MULTIPLE pairs of £180 trainers, seemingly needlessly as she's not making any effort anywhere else. It's absurd to me, in the same way it's absurd she spends so much in homeware but her kitchen was filthy on DKL & let's not mention the nails. Just bizarre.

I've just eaten one of those black pepper ryvita and my tongue is burning for my sins x

And her mate Vix was complicit in that with her “another a+ pass” comment straightaway the pair of dicks.

Can we organise a pay rise for Pocahontas please? She's working harder than the rest of the cabal.

Oh, yes please Vlad, a filthy deposit of bitcoin would be much appreciated and welcome. I’ll also humbly nominate Silver and Marmalade and all others who painstakingly provide receipts on here. What a team!

My style had never really changed. I wear jeans and tshirts and either converse (usually non branded) or ( branded) DMS everyday. I dress up on the rare occassions I go out.
