Convenient Timing

Some seem to think that the only reason Amber is speaking out her medication at all is because of her recent admission that she was not sober while filming Marriage Boot Camp. “I was heavily drinking on top of my bipolar and borderline medication,” Amber tweeted after an episode of her explosive behavior aired on Marriage Boot Camp .
“Obviously something you shouldn’t do with medications like that. However it happened and I went through hard times in order to be truly happy finally.”
She went on to say, “No matter what struggles I went through a year ago on ‘MBC’… I’m now happy, healthy and sober. The struggles & anger I went through are real & I’m happy to have ended such a horrific time in my life! Ready to live life clear headed and full of love. The future is finally bright.”
“Typical,” wrote user chrissycakes8726. “Anytime Amber is shown in a bad light, all of a sudden an article comes out from some magazine that she’s spoken to claiming that she’s doing some great thing that she knows people want to hear. All she wants is the praise from fans for ‘doing the right thing.’” User Modean52 agreed, “So another Amber mental illness/medication article appearing right before a new episode of [Marriage Boot Camp], how convenient. Is Amber advising her many followers to maybe not booze it up while you’re on any kind of meds?”
High Hopes

Amber has more plans than just meds to help her through her mental illness, though.
“One of the main therapeutic things that I wanted to do is a blog for people who have mental illnessesand want to share their stories about how they overcame certain situations, just to show people that we’re all in this together,” she shared with Us.
She added that she’s hopeful that things will stay civil between her and her extended family. “I just want a healthy baby. I want everybody — me, Gary, [his wife] Kristina, Andrew — to blend together and stop the back-and-forth,” Amber said. “I have a really calm, chill life and I’m happy for the first time, genuinely.” She added, “I’ve had people come up and tell me that it’s so much easier [to have a boy], and then I have people tell me it’s harder. So, I guess I have to find out for myself.”
No Rush

As for her relationship with Andrew, Amber pumped the breaks on insider claims that she and Andrew are planning to get married. “We haven’t talked about marriage or anything like that, and it’s not like a huge thing for us right now,” she said. “We’re happy where we’re at. If it happens, it happens, and there’s no rush.”
But apparently things are going very well for the new couple, at least according to Amber. “We just really connect and definitely feel it was good for both of us,” she said. “We’re the happiest we’ve ever been.” Of course, some of their more explosive fights have been caught on camera, making some fans question just how stable their relationship is.
