This is my first time posting on here. I too, like most of us here at some point... got sucked in by Mrs Hinch. I brought a flat in 2017 and I’ve been slowly trying to make it my own over the last couple of years. I’d love to have the money to buy nice things for it. I can barely afford a new photo frame each month!
MH’s page just made me feel depressed that I didn’t have my home as complete as hers, all perfect and in place. I wasn’t admiring the decor and colour palette (the grey and white theme just feels cold and clinical to me), just how everything seemed all done and perfect. The time she spends on cleaning and how tidy everything seems to be.... I wanted that. It just made me feel less perfect, more messy, more untidy than ever before. But I’ve woken up. It’s all BS!!! It’s okay to have a clean home, to take pride in your house, but this has really blown out of proportion now to the point it’s unhealthy and encouraging unhealthy behaviour. Selling
tit to the masses, the parcels that come to her everyday. More junk, more stuff you don’t need, putting more thoughts into your brain if not having enough, needing to buy more, clean more. It’s not real life, it’s not healthy! The amount of time she spends on social media too. All these poor young people getting sucked in, going out and buying all this stuff. It’s excessive... adding more toxicity to an already toxic world. And to be honest I feel kinda sorry for her, she’s got in way over her head.... and it’s gunna take a while to dig herself out and I wouldn’t be surprised if she has some mental health issues after this instagram explosion is over. I have to question her ethics.... but I’m not going to get personal and start slating the fact she doesn’t have friends, or her makeup or her looks or whatever. 2 wrongs don’t make a right. My life is imperfect and messy in places, but I’m okay with that. Nothing is perfect. I know she did that post a little while ago about how everything isn’t perfect all the time. So why don’t you show it more often?? Showing off a perfect world is more damaging to your Hinch Army who have tacked into this like a cult! Spending all their money on stuff you can afford or are sent for free, and they are using their minimum wage to buy with! Wouldn’t be surprised if they did a Black Mirror episode on this madness.
