I wonder if they read these comments...maybe Gleam need to...and the bosses of Loose Women.
And when he does that he doesn't drive straight home, he hangs around to wait for her - usually in coffee shops, so what will he do now?Mark is driving Nadia to Loose Women next week??? What is wrong with the pair of them - how can they possibly think that is essential?
We think Maddie has read here in the past as there were some offensive? message put up - I didn't see them as they were deleted before I saw them. Others might remember what they said.I wonder if they read these comments...maybe Gleam need to...and the bosses of Loose Women.
I was convinced a burn out would come before they started their 4 and 5 uploads a day.Well i finally unsubscribed after being a loyal viewer for two years, the relentless chat & content (YouTube & social media) based around this lockdown and pandemic was the final nail in the coffin.
I think every viewer will eventually reach where i got to with them, just down to the amount of stuff they are putting out coupled with their manic 24/7 over the top characters...it is complete overkill and i just don’t understand why they would think it’s a good idea to completely saturate themselves on to their audience the way they do. I mean talk about spreading yourselves thin as people and a family.
I’ve obviously not seen a change in Marks behaviour as i haven’t watched in over a week but can’t say it would be a surprise. The one thing i did always pick up from him though was a strong vibe of being very sneaky/secretive under the surface which i don’t mean just in regards to drinking, i think N has her head in the clouds most of the time though.
Anyway, the realisation is that they can’t possibly continue as they have been, a massive blowup or burnout is inevitable, they must see that surely?!!!
Fair comment if you're professionally trained however as much as they infuriate me, it's a strong allegation towards someone in recovery and their support network which I'd be hesitant to do. All sorts of drugs including those he has/is on for anxiety cause similar side effects as do the drugs that are prescribed for those not considered alcoholics but 'problem drinkers' (I hate that term) to help support a decrease in their consumption of alcohol. I found your post very informative, please do not think I'm arguing.Bit of a long one...
I have spent my career working with heavy drinkers and alcoholics, and in my opinion, Mark had been drinking before last night's "Past the Peak" vlog.
Notice how his skin colour keeps going redder then back to normal and he gets an intermittent light sweat on his forehead?
Alcohol causes vasodilation, or widening of the blood vessels in the skin, which can increase the temperature of the skin. In response, the brain signals the sweat glands to cool down the body, and the perspiration begins.
Alcohol changes the way you think and feel, and therefore influences how you act.
His tone of voice was intermittently louder than normal and his behaviour towards his wife oversteps the mark when he pokes and flicks her. He was, and often is, erratic for no reason. All classic behaviours of a secret drinker who thinks there is no evidence of their drinking. The non verbal evidence is always there.
As the alcohol ravages their body, secret drinkers suffer from skin problems and their overall appearance may suffer. Paying less attention to physical hygiene can be signs someone has a problem with drinking. These are just some of the physical effects I believe Mark shows in response to his secret drinking.
He also drank lots of water throughout the vlog which I believe was to dissipate the alcohol smell and to rehydrate. He's out of breath just going to the kitchen for more water which is uncharacteristic for someone who is fit but not for someone who is drinking.
I'd go so far as to say he's been drinking throughout the lock down. His erratic behaviour has definitely deteriorated online throughout lock down. There is no comparison to the vlogs of old and vlogs of new with regards to his behaviour.
Also Mark stays up late, drinkers often stay up late to drink in peace. Many will stay awake after everyone else has gone to bed. They can drink on their own without anyone monitoring the amount of alcohol being consumed. They feel more free when no one else is there to judge them.
If Mark is relapsing, he needs to get help asap. I believe the evidence is all there for everyone to see. His wife repeatedly keeps calling him annoying, In my humble opinion I would say his behaviour is classic relapsing behaviour.
I can't stand all the self pity these two constantly show, especially Mark. I'm not diminishing anxiety and depression in any way when it's genuine but these two love having such labels as it legitimises their wallowing in misery. Mark wants everyone else to be as miserable as he is all the time. Did anyone else hear Mark in one of the vlogs a while back say he was so proud that his daughter(Kiki) was doing really dark artwork. I wouldn't be proud that my 12 year old child was having dark thoughts and showing it in their artwork, i would be really worried.
My favourite thing about this comment is that fact that it's the ONLY comment 2 whole days after the article was published! N's constant whingeing no longer even has any £££ value as clickbait.View attachment 121172
He looks like a woman & she looks like a witchdo they not care what they look like??? I’d be embarrassed to put myself out there looking like they do
This is the latest crap she is giving an interview for in daily mail & the one comment!!View attachment 121173View attachment 121174
That's exactly what she does, always accompanied by her woeful, wounded fawn expression. I loathe the gormless cow.I don't follow Stacey I am not a fan, I think she is another one who plays her audience and the few times I have seen her on Loose Women she's always playing devils advocate and trying to be a people pleaser....just saying what she thinks everyone wants to hear.
Hi CatwomanFair comment if you're professionally trained however as much as they infuriate me, it's a strong allegation towards someone in recovery and their support network which I'd be hesitant to do.

If you’re right and he has hit the bottle I wouldn’t think the present crisis would be the reason. As long as he doesn’t catch the virus he’s no worse off than anyone else in Lockdown. In fact he’s in a very fortunate position compared to some with issues like M who are maybe living alone or in poverty for example.Hi Catwoman
The post is just my opinion. I value your opinion equally. As far as what Mark tells us, he's not on any medication for his depression and anxiety anymore. The probability for someone with so many issues relapsing during this very challenging time is very very real. His wife constantly tells anyone who will listen that he had serious issues with alcohol, however during a very serious crisis she shows no apparent thought for the extra support he may need to cope everyday.
