'Married at First Sight': Christina reveals she stopped taking ADD medications, fans say 'it's purely for tv'

Christina shared she was diagnosed with Attention deficit disorder and has been off her medication for over a month. Without her meds, she gets irritable

Christina and Henry are finally communicating after a rough few weeks. They have struggled with their feelings for each other and have hardly spoken about real feelings in the two weeks that they've been married. But after the massive blow up in the previous week's episode, the two are making an effort to understand each other better this time.  

Christina shared she was diagnosed with Attention deficit disorder (ADD) and has been off her medication for over a month. Without her meds, she gets irritable and that could be a reason why she may come across overwhelmed at times. Henry lent a patient ear, acknowledged her sharing it with him and told her that he will not be judging her in any way. He asked more questions about her disorder, which seemed like a sign that he was invested in Christina and would like to be there for her. 

Later, they had a conversation about love as each of them went about answering one simple question: When do you know you're in love? Henry spoke at length and it was surprising because he has been quiet all this while. He even asked Christina what her thoughts were on love. In her confessional, she admitted to liking Henry and realizing why she was matched with him. She appreciated that he brings a calming effect into her life.

Unlike older times, the couple has begun having free-flowing conversations and that could be a lot to do with Christina being back on her medications and possibly, feeling better than before.

But, fans are not buying it. Most have questioned Christina's decision to go off medication right before she began filming for 'MAFS.'

"This “change of heart” is PURELY for TV because girl how you see that?" a fan commented, while another shared: "Uh, Christina, your lack of ADD meds don’t make u an impatient b***h. Emphasis on the b***h part. Nice try tho. If we were 2buy your predicament, why would u get off of it 2 secs be4 you’re gonna be on a national tv show. Nah. I don’t buy this excuse."

"Wtf would Christina get off her meds and then go on reality tv and get married at first sight?" a user tweeted, another pointed out: "Christina just admitted she fights in every relationship. So it's not the meds. She's a jerk."

 
"Christina is a narcissist. A spoiled brat. She needs more than meds. #MarriedAtFirstSight #MAFS," a user expressed, to which another fan responded: "Exactly and why wouldn’t you be on your meds if you’re trying to impress your spouse. Sounds like a lie to me," a fan shared.  

"Not believing Christina's I'm off my ADHD medication excuse. She's trying to save face," a viewer wrote on the show's official page on Facebook.
