I stopped watching her stories for a while, I just had a quick look this morning. I don’t know much about anxiety and I’m lucky enough not to suffer from it, it must be terrible to live with it. When I listen to her and others on IG saying they have anxiety, it doesn’t make sense to me. I understand it can come up in many different ways and certain situations can trigger it but what I don’t get is how they can live their lives on IG and show the most private details, family and moments of their lives to millions of strangers, or appear on tv and that doesn’t give them anxiety. I don’t post many pics of myself and I certainly wouldn’t post my family or my house because I would feel nervous that people could just turn up at my house or see me out and approach me or my family even if I don’t know them. I think I get confused with the difference between nervousness and anxiety when it comes to influencers because their anxiety doesn’t appear to trigger, or stop them when it comes to exposure or making £££. I would imagine that no amount of money can stop or postpone anxiety. Is it common for someone who suffers with anxiety to happily show off their kids to a bunch of strangers and god knows what type of sickos without a second thought but would struggle to go to an event that celebrates bravery, courage and pure human decency? I just can’t get my head around it. I know it’s a complex issue but I find it extremely contradictory when it comes to influencers
This is what really frustrates me. I have awful anxiety, and I know it presents itself in so many different ways but I just could not live the way Hinch does.
Some days I can’t set foot outside my home because I’m so utterly convinced that something terrible is going to happen.
I go through phases of not sleeping more than a couple of hours at a time because I have such intrusive thoughts of everyone I love dying in the most horrific way possible. It can take me 4,5,6 attempts at making a phone call because I hear the first ring and hang up and have to count my breaths to get my heart rate back down before I can speak.
it’s being scared of going to the supermarket, and panicking for hours in advance of having to join a work zoom call.
it’s watching the laundry and dishes pile up and not having the energy to do anything about it, yet feeling like I could bounce off the walls because I’m so anxious and ready to burst. It’s not being able to eat or drink anything because my stomach is so unsettled it just comes right back up.
Not even sharing this for sympathy, just that she hasn’t a fucking clue how debilitating it can be. She’s not anxious, she’s nervous because she knows it’s just a matter of time before the majority really catch on to what a lying, selfish, narcissistic pos she is. I
hate people who just use anxiety as a buzzword. She is a huge part of the problem, and it’s infuriating that she plays the ‘poor me’ card when she’s caused 100% of her own problems. Bellend.
she’s done fuck all since the pandemic started, her life has been the same. She’s a cretin. Absolutely in love with herself.
