.VirutalHug I think plenty of people in her life have told Jen she needs real therapy, talk and/or meds. I’m sure that she tells them she she knows where best for herself and then goes into a long winded lecture about how throughout history whenever a woman wanted to break from society’s status quote she was treated as a histrionic nut job.
Jen doesn’t understand that just because something is true, doesn’t mean it applies to her. From what she has shown and revealed about her life, she most certainly has real, long-standing mental health issues.
Again, I do think it’s sad how people with these issues are treated but she most certainly does not belong on social media at this point. It’s not good for her well-being.

Is it true that TLO is involved in porn movies? Other than some of the tags under his posts, where do we come by that info?
You know, I didn't see it at first, to me she seemed a rich stay at home girl but then I gradually came to the conclusion that she IS indeed a person suffering from a mental illness. She is so great at manipulating her shortcomings at her own advantage it's insane! Not here to diagnose of course. From time to time I occasionally watch one of her old party or organizational videos, they are strangely soothing to me, and calming. I NOW see all of it so clearly (well...not just 'now', it's been a while!), all of her mental structure so to say, all of her strategies, her manipulative tactics, her teenage behaviour and enabling husband and relatives.
Well, of course she knows what's best for her! and am sure we all have in your life that exact same person who knows best so after a while you just give up, you stop giving advice and you sit there and watch.
People like Jen rarely heal or grow or understand, unfortunately.

I think she needs to get off social media and at least get a part time job. Or a part time volunteer gig. Something that forces her to get out of her own head, to interact with other humans, and to be accountable to.
I wonder what other rich people do who don’t work. Like…does Paris Hilton do anything productive? I suppose if you aren’t nuts, having tons of free time, next to no responsibilities, and no drive isn’t a bad thing.
(Edit) And I also she had some sort of childhood trauma.. -
.
Paris Hilton is now a DJ somewhere. And she has way more money than Jen could ever dream of. . -
.
And she has a cooking show on Netflix. . -
.
She will keep posting on Youtube and social media because she feels 'called to share' which basically means that she's addicted to the attention and has very little interaction with other people without it. . -
.
^^^ It's sad AND pathetic, like don't you (Gene) want more from your life?! 
How do you not want more out of life?
. -
.
Okay, so Paris Hilton was a bad example. I didn’t know she actually works. And I know that Paris Hilton has way more money than Jen! I was just trying to think of people who don’t work because they are independently wealthy. . -
.
I know quite a few women in Jen’s former position who were so bored with their lives that they became alcoholics.
You know... I just got up to be ready for work, and I have to work all day and also squeeze in time to finish some projects for my volunteer position, and then spend the evening with my partner. And I’d much rather have a busy day than wake up every day with nothing on the agenda. I get depressed.. -

Most stay at home moms of toddlers are busy. But she just dumps them at “school” as soon as they can walk and now only has them 50% of the time. . -

Jen is the least busy mother of 2 I've ever seen 
she really fully embraced Glennon Doyle's approach to motherhood
ME ME MEEEE. I have to be happy! ME first!
which basically means always put your needs first. to hell with the kids. they'll figure out a way to be less miserable. -
.She’s down to 60.7k followers on Instagram now. Any guesses on when it will hit 59? I say 2 months
I wonder what her actual engagement is though. Like most people, I basically just watched IG for stories now, I barely scroll the grid. And if you stop watching someone's stories or flip through them fast the algorithm will shove them to the bottom of your list so you basically never see them pop up unless they happen to post a grid pic. Therefore it is super easy to unfollow someone without actually unfollowing them because their content just won't show up anymore.. -
.
Per usual, Jen over-complicates everything to the extreme.
Jenions would be creaming themselves if she uploaded the most basic, low effort content TWO! times a week: What’s in my walking pharmacy, DITL on Errands Tuesday, Organize my bathroom cabinet with me, Favourites
Instead, Jen sleeps in her car at an abandoned nuclear plant and calls it re-branded content.

I’ve actually known some who were even less busy than Jen and had nannies raise their kids and full-time housekeepers, but those things probably would have saved Lazy Jen’s marriage.. -

Idleness is the father of vices...
When I discovered Jen's channel in 2011, I was dating a very wealthy man and I felt very similar to Jen. Back then, my dream was to be a stay at home 'wife'. Which came true to a certain extent. I was very happy playing the perfect housewife and I had no money problem, had plenty of time on my hands. We were travelling a lot, he treated me to Michelin starred restaurants, champagne, expensive gifts without batting an eye. I dare say I was happy at the beginning.
But he was out of the house the majority of the time and I got so bored. I cleaned, went grocery shopping, cooked, exercised, explored the area, went shopping at every whim....But when these activities were over, what was left for me to do? I was so bored. I tried to find a job, find a hobby... I couldn't get out of my head. I started to over organize everything and became more and more unsatisfied. Never felt more 'caged' and at the mercy of fate in my life back then than I ever felt in my entire life. It made me clingy, frustrated and unhappy, I felt ashamed to say to people I was a housewife (= no money of my own). My brain turned into mush. Days were simply too long to fill. I got depressed. It was terribly hard to break the circle and build something on my own.
I discovered that just being a housewife, which I thought was for me, was not good for my mental heath. I can do it, yes, but for limited periods of time(ie on holidays) or while having a part time job or a full time job.
From that experience, I learnt a lot. I swore to myself to never repeat the same mistake again. I understood I need to be independent, and have my own money to be happy and fulfilled. Independence is freedom! It's terrifying to be at somebody's else mercy.
And Jen is still at D's mercy.. -

i wonder why no nanny... jen, who gets her handy man in to hang up a picture frame, would have probably wanted one, no?
i think that jen already had some form of significant depression, and topped it off with some ppd once the kids were born. she probably could have and should have waited longer between cc and donny, but they needed to get that heir in.
someone wrote about jen never actually wanting kids a few pages back - i would agree. i think she figured that she'd want them later on in the marriage like she was "supposed to," so it never was a problem. til she ran out of time, had them, and hated it..
