To be in BB?I honestly don't think so.It's quite sad to see someone in that state being paraded on camera.She seems very depressed and constantly angry.This obsession with Jim is certainly not the work of a healthy mind,It seems like he's all she can think about.BB is supposedly a very mentally challenging enviroment to put yourself through,Surely people with issues like Linda should'nt slip through the vetting process should they?It can't possibly be good for her in there.

they will probably hire private/independent assessors who will put through whomever they're told to...

This is the second thread on Linda's mental health.. so disgusting

[Northern Monkey]

Yeah but suppose the experience made her worse?Would'nt C5 get into trouble for putting her in?

[Pincho Paxton]

It is safer for us that she's in the house.

Absolutely NOTHING indicates she is mentally ill now stop with your vile excessive hate

Why shouldn't be people allow to discuss this?

Linda's own sister was in the paper saying Linda was suicidal which would make her mentally unstable so I think these threads are alright tbh.

[Me. I Am Salman]

People are basing that assumption on her relationship with Jim though, and so far I only see her as standing up for herself

[reece(:]

I think it's an offence to mentally unstable people to be labelling anyone with a backbone and/or a vendetta with the term.

Doesn't give you the right to tell people to stop discussing things...

As far as I can see these threads have been in no way insulting, OTT or offensive.

This is only your opinion.

Lindas own sister said she was suicidal in the papers, that makes her mentally unstable if true, people have a right to discuss it.

It's not offensive at all, if you don't like it don't read it.

Her current pattern of behaviour is unhealthy and I infer this is more likely associated with her mental health than her bowel habit. Thus I will discuss her mental health in the same way that football fans discuss footballers' physical fitness. Get over yourself.

Salman,people base their assumptions of Jim on his past,you don't mind about that

She's not having a relationship with Jim, the arguments are coming from her own mind, which is not normal.

So you think her obsessive behaviour is normal?I honestly don't.It's one thing to not get on with somebody for something that may have happened years in the past,but to make them the topic of 99% of discussions you have and literally screw your face up whenever they speak and pick at every word they say is'nt the norm.They don't have to like each other but what she does is like some weird stalker thing.Not only that,She always has this unhappy look on her face,I've barely seen her crack a smile.She seems like a very unhappy person.

Reece have you qualifications to make such a statement? Are you familiar with the diagnostic relevance in ICD10 of preoccupations, overvalued ideas and delusions? "mentally unstable people" thank you for your concern.

Exactly,I tried not to be offensive.I think Linda seems depressed to me and takes it out on Jim in the house,She more than likely does it outside the house aswell i bet but with other people.Imo.

I think 3 weeks with jim davidson would break anyone!
She needs to avoid the sexist raincloud of doom.

Linda has had a tough time in recent years and isn't earning any money. She got a good fee for going into Big Brother and she took it cos she needed the money. I think there have been a lot of celebrities in the past who haven't coped well with being in the house. Its a bit like Im a celeb get me out of here when a lot of Z listers sign up and then have to eat all kinds of bugs, endure baths full of spiders and sleep in bad conditions to earn their fee. I think the Big Brother gang get a better deal. Im on the fence where Linda is concerned really but if she needed the money and they asked her to do the show good on her!

I totally agree.

I don't even think it's that personal about Jim.

She entered the house clearly unhappy and i think she's just using Jim as a hook to hang on all her unhappiness while she's in the house.

Some people get addicted to negative drama and are very clever at hooking others into arguing back, so they can then use them as a target and blame them for all their inner upset. She does this very well with Jim all the time.

It's not nice and i feel sorry for Jim trapped in there with that. He is doing well to ride it out as calmly as he does, especially as he is battling his own issues himself.

I think BB would be more of a brain drain than Celeb too because of the amount of hours they are doing nothing but sat around thinking with nothing to keep them busy and their mind active.People need distractions and to be able to escape their own thoughts for a while.I don't think sitting around obsessing can be good for somebody who may have an issue.

[smudgie]

I think she is doing ok.
She does not seem any more unstable than Jim, they both argue like cat and dog.
She digs at him, he digs at her. Two of a kind.
