Hi, new here. Held off to say anything until i had read a few threads. I am actually relieved others aren't falling for her BS.
SADLY, i did at first. At the beginning of lockdown i began online therapy for my anxiety and depression. I wasn't keeping on top of my house work as partner worked, and came across Hinch. I fell for this facade that i needed to have a super tidy home and i began to dislike myself, this impacted me with my already diagnosed low self esteem. I felt even more depressed that I didn't have money to decorate and make my home look nice or buy things and this made my stress levels peak as i struggled further to clean because i felt defeated.
Around a month ago, i actually had a good conversation with my therapist and i have fully woken up to this Hinch life.
I clean what I can and when i feel like it, and i am happy that my home is not black & white, i love my mis matched furniture and bright coloured crochet blankets.
Anyway, the point of sharing my story is that i was already in a pretty vulnerable place and that Hinch didn't help, it, if anything rubbed it in my face an gives a false vision of what our life should be about.
I'm post therapy now and she isn't a trigger for me anymore as i have coping mechanisms for my triggers, but i want to let people know that if you've ever felt guilt or shame for not 'being more like hinch' please don't. It's false, it's not everyone's way of life and however you clean or decorate is also perfectly valid.
Thanks for reading i am sorry if i jumped on here with this. I just feel as though she is very self indulgent and doesn't think about other people unless they are cheering her on.
All the best x
Also why does she have to point with her massively long Grinch finger.
