I think the coke was giving her the anxiety realistically. I still don’t think she’d go that far away for a month at the same time as her sisters wedding for anxiety she’s had for ages

100% this - she must think we are all stupid hahaaaaa and clearly her team have read the threads about suggesting to go down the mental health route to shut everyone up / give her followers an explanation. Also why go to SA for anxiety when she lives in London and there will be amazing professional help on her doorstep.... oh yeh because she's addicted to the sniff!

Even places like Spain have beautiful retreats if she wanted somewhere warm and picturesque. They all probably follow the same sort of programme so I really don’t believe it was anxiety alone
 
The timing is so odd. I think if it was true addiction alone, she would have waited for after the sisters wedding. Something forced her to go around her sister’s wedding date.
Also think it’s stupid that Sophie and Jamie cannot speak of each other without reminding us all that they are best friends. Feels a bit forced when they have to remind us daily.
 
I definitely read her message thinking "coke-induced anxiety" or "anxiety-induced coke". The message felt quite disengenuous, like she's telling a half-truth. It strikes me as weird that someone would travel all the way to South Africa for anxiety issues (and a no-brainer considering she checked into a facility that also treats drug addictions). Surely travelling to the other side of the world would be anxiety-inducing in itself. There's more to this than she's letting on.
 
I think it would have been addressed earlier too if she was going away for anxiety treatment. They hoped it would go unnoticed and were trying to post on her behalf to stop people speculating. The plan wasn’t for her to be open about her anxiety and use it to help people or she’d have been honest about it

Exactly - anxiety disorder is a b*tch. It just strikes me as a bit odd, because when you're in a really bad place with it, you tend to seek safety in the familiar to keep you grounded - not fly to the other side of the world (and incidentally stay at a facility that also treat drug addictions). That would just introduce a whole other element of anxiety. I've had AD most of my life and during really bad bouts I couldn't physically leave my local area/city for months. I even had to back out of going to a wedding abroad during one of my worst spells. Sorry to get quite passionate about this, but it's because I don't think she's giving us the full story, and I resent people pulling the mental health card when that's not the full truth (in my opinion). My gut just thought "BS" when I read her story.

I'm not denying she has anxiety, but I also don't think the speculation from multiple sources just appeared out of nowhere. No smoke without fire.

I think she's saying "my husband and best friend" meaning Jamie and Melissa on the separate podcasts
 
I’ve had my share of partying and I did get to a stage where I wouldn’t enjoy a night out without getting a bag with my mates what seemed relatively fun and the thing to do at the time because genuinely everyone around me was doing it definitely contributed massively to my anxiety so no wonder she ended up in a facility for it if she was heavily using. I would only take it on the weekend for fun but by Sunday evening I would feel so low and down and would be in tears the rest of the week. Sorry if some people can’t relate but I just wanted to give my perspective as it’s definitely seen as a very normal casual thing for young people to engage in but it’s absolutely awful for your mental health! I don’t do it anymore as I started to hate how I felt and I feel so much better for it 🤗

Could have written that myself! I was the same, used to dread the "suicide Tuesdays" as that's when I felt most down.

Now diagnosed with depression and panic disorder so that's fun! I haven't touched the stuff for a couple of years but wish I never had.
 
Is she really clean now?

The video of her dancing at 7am, was that just excitement to be back home, with the love of her life?

I hope to be totally wrong on what I think is going on, but the only pic of her that looked somewhat believable (her being sober) was the pic Jamie shared when she arrived back.

Aww bless you! I do hope you’re doing better now lovely!
