Reality TV viewers diagnosed with severe whiplash due to sudden transition from Married at First Sight to MasterChef

Reality TV consumers are being treated by doctors after being exposed to a radical shift from extreme nastiness to heartwarming goodness.

Australian doctors have reportedly seen a sharp increase in the number of whiplash cases, thought to be caused by the sudden shift in reality television content airing on televisions across the nation. The cases have been seen across the country, with doctors concerned that viewers may not fully understand the severity of the matter. 

Chief Medical Officer, Professor Paul Kelly, warns that whiplash is a genuine concern, particularly amongst middle class women who are known to peruse the commercial stations.

“Know the signs, see a doctor if you’re concerned and please, for the love of god, regulate your intake of the Bachelor. That shit is wild” Kelly said in a press conference earlier today. 

A recent victim of the whiplash epidemic, Kristy Denham, has come forward with her story. The Sydney based marketing assistant is a big fan of Australian reality TV, reportedly consuming everything from The Amazing Race to the Bachelor on the reg. 

"Yeah I'm a massive fan. I just love that you can switch off when you're watching and forget about life's worries! Nothing better than Bachy and a glass of cab sav am I right?" she laughs.

But the recent 24hour turnaround from the MAFS finale to the premier of MasterChef has been too much, even for die hard fans like herself. 

The MAFS finale, which saw cheating scandals, abusive relationships and casual racism was arguably reality TV at its most toxic. One day later though, Denham had flipped over to MasterChef's heartwarming premier goodness with cheesy victory dances, covid-safe elbow bumps and incredibly healthy contestant relationships. 

When describing her symptoms, Denham said that she had experienced sudden onset pain in her neck, disorientation and dizziness. 

"I can't deal with how nice Melissa is. She doesn't even gaslight the contestants. Ugh, my head hurts just thinking about it".

Viewers have been advised to seek medical support if they experience symptoms again, particularly in the lead up to promotions for the Bachelor.
