Imagine coming back from a luxury vacation in Italy with your husband and children and whining that you miss people validating you on social media! What a twisted perception of life and happiness. Seriously. I would love to take a trip somewhere but I am on a high-deductible insurance plan and had unexpected medical expenses that sucked a vacation-sized amount of money out of my pocket. (vacation-sized for me, that is. For Chrissy, it was probably the cost of a dress.) I would love to whine and complain about it but honestly I am grateful that I had the money to cover it. And I have health insurance! If this turns into surgery it will be covered because I will have met the deductible by then. But if this had happened 6-7 years ago after I got laid off from my job, exhausted my savings, and had bare bones insurance, I would have been in trouble. I've been able to build some savings back up since then, so I could cover this year's medical surprise. So many people are suffering financially from the pandemic that I am absolutely not going to whine about it. I truly am grateful. I think a lot of people, especially celebrities like Chrissy, live in bubbles of extreme privilege for so long that they have no idea how to relate to the mess of life that every day people wade through. |

Latest IG is her sweet little dog passed away in her arms. Now that gets my sympathy big time. And she’s so wacko I could imagine she’s a little relieved she has a legitimate reason to be depressed and to elicit sympathy.

I think Chrissy got back from Italy and was like, Alright, back to work! Step #1: Put on sweatpants, lie on couch, tell everyone I'm depressed so I can get uncancelled.

Courtney is contradicting Chrissy's claim that she apologized via text to Courtney. Neither Courtney or Courtney's team has received anything from Chrissy either via text or email.
I wonder if Chrissy texted an old number? I don't think Chrissy would lie about texting someone when it could so easily be disproven. But honestly, what do I know? I've been surprised by the character, or lack of it, some people have shown.

I've been surprised by the character, or lack of it, some people have shown. I don't know that a lack of a text is that easily disproven. The existence of an incriminating text is fairly easily proven (although could be doctored or sent under a false number), but proving that someone never sent a text seems more difficult. Yeah, getting "cancelled" is actually doing her a huge favor, if she could only see it. Stepping away and realizing that a hole is being left by the empty adulation of strangers should be a clue that your priorities are off and that you might have gone down an unhealthy rabbit hole. But it doesn't seem like she's ready to see that yet, if ever. |

She’s hit a new low: on IG tearfully showing a pile of miscarriage sympathy cards and letters (she says) just arrived from her agency’s reopened mailroom.

At this point, she's just making me uncomfortable. I don't like her, but I don't hate her either, so I'm not invested in her permanent cancellation. (In fact, I just took a look at her IG and she's selling some popcorn seasoning that looks really good, so I might give her some business.)
But the way she's desperately reaching out for the love and affection of millions of social media strangers is so awkward. I think she's trying to reclaim something that she doesn't realize never existed, and therefore never really went away. This "I love you guys, I miss you guys" stuff is so misguided and she doesn't seem clued in.
The apex of her popularity, such as it is, was when she had a miscarriage. So now she's trying to revive that tragic period because it's when she felt the strongest flow of "love" coming at her from strangers. I don't know if she's in therapy, but she really, really needs it.

Chrissy also needs to take a muuuuuuuuuuuuch longer break from social media.
I know people who are like her. People I respect. Oftentimes they become exhausting with their whining, attention seeking, and self diagnoses. I really wish they would seek therapy, or find a new therapist.
For the most part I stay off social media to avoid seeing their content. They're not always intolerable, but it feels as if they've gotten worse. We all have stuff we're going through and rarely do I see these people step outside themselves to ask how others are doing.
Chrissy is the worst of them, however.

First last week she cried about her dog passing and now using her miscarriage for sympathy. John needs to take her phone and computer away. She needs to be off social media completely. It's become pathetic. |
