Guys, i caved and ended up binge watching all the remaining episodes last night! Now i feel utterly ashamed of myself!!! lol.
Those bleeping 'professionals' need kicking off the show. They enable the toxic behaviours and dont address the right people! And its bleeping awful watching Billy, my heart breaks for him because this is having such a negative impact on his mental health.

Also Cyrell, i have grown to love her! I kinda see abit of myself in her. I hate when people 'diagnose' people, but honestly it feels like she also has BPD like me. It absolutely doesnt exuse her behaviour and i wouldnt ever do this show due to my own issues. But i do feel like she does have some level of bpd.

Jess is such a bleep, and her and Martha really need to update their make up! And what is up with all their dress sense- girls and boys, its like going back to 2005! lol

IMO BPD is a trauma really, so could quite possibly be. I've never worked with a patient with BPD that hasn't had a trauma.

I wish the experts would ask jess what she is playing at when she's undoing her dress in front of Dan etc. Hate how Mick is being made to look the bad guy

Jess isn't a strong enough woman to deal with a guy like Mick. In a relationship you need to hear home truths now and then no matter how much you don't want to hear what's being said. It's called tough love and you'd expect it of those closest to you.

But thats not part of her agenda! Its very clear she has made the breakdown of the relationship with Mick all about what he said about her family but the bigger picture is she set her cap at Dan as soon as she saw him.. I wish Nick had spoken up about her propositioning him ...not sure Dan would be quite as keen if he knew he was 2nd choice!

Tamara really, really reminds me of someone famous and I can't think who - please help! It's bugging me so much! I think it might be an actress from a comedy but I'm not sure. I've been asked if it's Gina from brooklyn 99 or Amy from big bang theory when I've said she reminds me of someone but it's neither of them. That's as far as I can narrow it down though. I think it's mainly her mouth/nose area when she says certain things or pulls certain faces but I can't really be more specific.

It's SO frustrating that Jess hitting on Nic hasn't been exposed! I appreciate that Nic probably wants to keep it under wraps because Cyrell would explode but I really want all of Jess' lies to be exposed!

Yes i know, ive got BPD and Bipolar and its absolutely horrible to live with. You say trauma, but i dont think i have had suffered trauma tbh. And this stumped my psychiatrist because i had an amazing upbringing- i never suffered any abuse or neglect in childhood. But i almost died when i was 11 due to a brain tumour- could that be classed as trauma? I am also a qualified social worker- i mainly worked in child protection but i also had special interest in Mental Health due to my own diagnosis and experiences. So i do like reading all about my diagnosis's and i would like to work in mental health at some point- my dream is to be an AMHP but thats a long way off seeing as im receiving treatment myself... Anyway thats a whole different story and ive gone off topic there :)

i see abit of Cyrell in myself because i have also reacted in similar ways to her. But what i also love about Cyrell and also myself is im good at sussing things out, and so is Cryell. I think because we are always on guard, we analyse so much, and we do see things that others dont necessarily see at first. But given the nature of the show i would never ever do it, and i dont think its ethically correct to allow people with such complex disorders to do it because its all but guaranteed to open trauma wounds and get hurt. But given the shows own 'experts' are absolute gaslighting twats, i dont think psychological welfare of the contestants is a priority.
 
I spied this thread the other day and was dying to come back but I’ve literally just finished binge watching. I’ve never watched any other of these series is there any others worth watching and where?
I find it hard to grasp that the experts don’t see what’s been filmed outside the couples time with them so it’s annoying that all they have to go on is what the couples tell them.
What Innes did gave the green light for this kind of deceitful behaviour from Jessika and I honestly can’t stand her and Martha’s smug faces. Feel bad that Mick is going to have to face Jess family all because she wants Dan (no denying all of these people are attractive in their own way but fail to see this in Dan).
I don’t know who told Susie she can make someone feel like tit on her shoe, I don’t think her and Billy are matched but I just don’t like her eye rolling and thinking she’s amazing and always right.
Cyrell was wrong for kicking off but I’ll be honest I see my own firey nature in her and I was incensed that she was brought to her worst by nasty bitching girls. Have they left school yet?

I’ve just read the article on Ines and maybe Bronson was into sharing but this SHOULD have been said by Ines and it makes me wonder why she would not have outed this. She could have done it at any public gathering but seemingly it was a secret unless it had been known by everyone else and not aired? No excuse for the odd behaviour by her and I’m sorry she may have been affected by this mentally but she knew what she was doing. Fawning all over Sam and them both lying about it doesn’t fit the “poor me” girl image she is trying to portray

Mick had the measure of Jess on day 2 when he asked her if it was all for Instagram. She’s just clinging for an extra 5 mins. She’s vile.

I thought this too. Since I’m not familiar with the series I assumed that they wouldn’t be allowed on social media during filming, it’s dishonest that they can do this. Their time as couples should be just that with no outside info. What’s to stop them researching their partners and anything they find using it to their advantage.
Honestly I started watching this because it seemed so real and different from anything else. But as I’ve seen, they want drama above all else and god knows who told the experts they were that. They have (as far as I can see) got one couple right this series. If a person has deep seated issues like cyrell, partnering her with anyone would not just “fix it”. Quite deflated now feel like I’m watching and elaborate edited Nd fixed hoax rather than something real 😩

I think sadly the Australian version has evolved into a ratings monster and the true ethos behind the show has been lost. In the recent UK version they were genuinely on the show for the right reasons and the show appeared to be genuine. The Australian version just seems to be really misleading and dishonest and way too many ad breaks! Take them out and each episode would be 45 mins not 90 !
