leighroda October 29, 2015 Share October 29, 2015 I would have bet she was the youngest in her family or only child. I've never seen such a childish, whiny, delusional person on tv (and that's saying a lot). I thought she said she had 2 older brothers, then 3 younger sisters - so middle child issues? She certainly has to be the center of attention at all times. I cannot imagine her being on any sort of team, but yeah she was on the diving team at University of Hawaii and was a WAC titleholder or won some WAC awards. Wouldn't you love to hear from her old teammates? I also looked at her Linkedin profile. You would think coaching would be a natural progression since she loves the water so much, but you'd have to have patience in being a coach. The culinary school she attended, assuming she did not graduate as you'd list a certificate or something (do they issue diplomas?). In any event being a line cook and a barista does not make you a sous chef. How in the hell did she manage to graduate with a degree in history? I had roommates in college who took one or two history courses and it was a LOT of work (a cakewalk it was not). On behalf of middle children everywhere... I resent that. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1653420

OnceSane October 29, 2015 Share October 29, 2015 Raquel is the epitome of the cliché of the Millennial Employee. Which is sad, because I believe that each person should not be judged against the clichés of their particular generation. But she is spoiled, unable to work without constant praise, believes the world owes her respect...HER! I understand hating your boss, I get it, but please be discreet about it. Wait...it's Bravo; there's no payoff in being discreet about anything. She should hie herself over to that RHOBH spin-off, VanderPump Rules. She'd be a shoo-in (full disclosure: I've only ever seen commercials for it, never watched an episode) for the workplace DRAHma. A big ole Lana Kane-esque "Noooooooope!" to that.

yourmomiseasy October 29, 2015 Share October 29, 2015 Speaking of dogs. One of mine is kind of a Rocky. She needs to constantly be the center of attention, whines, is always wiggling her cute little butt, causes trouble all the time, her mood changes on a dime, she sings a lot (howls) and it's annoying, and she licks her fingers (toes) a lot. She had trouble in puppy school so I had to get her a private trainer. She was sent to boot camp to get her act in gear (it worked for the really bad stuff). She should probably go to the dog shrink and has a referral for one from the vet, but that's just too ridiculous and she's mellowed out a bit so she's just kind of annoying and not a danger to herself or others. She's only still alive because she's cute and she kept me too exhausted to murder her. Thinking about the parallels, I wonder how much of a terror Rocky was to deal with as a child. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1654862

RedHawk November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 (edited) I believe that Rocky has real, serious mental health issues and needs to seek treatment, not fame. I have just read the final published version of a book I proofread several times as it was being written. It's by a woman who suffers from bipolar disorder and PTSD due to a significant childhood trauma. She's now in her 60s and recounts her story in episodes from her life prior to her short commitment to a mental health facility, where she was finally diagnosed and started on meds. Her life is hard because she went far downhill for many years until she began treatment in her mid 50s. She writes that she is still "far from normal" and never will be, but she is very grateful to be where she is now. The thing that gets me is that now as I read the vignettes from her youth in my mind I see her looking and acting just like Rocky. The author depicts herself as beautiful, hyper-athletic, energetic to a bit manic, insecure, attention-seeking, annoying... and then swinging into belligerence, anger, and tantrums, fights for "justice" that include standing up for her "rights" and those of others' (who like Leon don't really need her or give a shit about her). It's a bit eerie, but confirms for me that Rocky actually needs HELP, so I feel drawn to watch her while also feeling sympathy and some concern. She clearly hoped for an emotional connection with Eddie even though she acted like it was just a casual romp to "blow off steam". I feel a bit that she was used by Eddie (he texted first, although there may have some flirting on her part that made him feel certain she wanted to hook up; we don't see everything that happens) and it makes me sad for her because she doesn't seem in control of herself, more at the mercy of her mood swings. They all see that she acts crazy. Eddie should have been mature and professional enough to not go to her for an easy hookup. After she threw the tantrum when Amy tried to talk to her in one of the bedrooms, she was later shown curled up on the floor of her room moaning, "What did I do to myself?" I think she knew she went way too far and felt embarrassed. It certainly wasn't the first time.

People are cast for their distinctive personalities and edited to exacerbate those traits. Not to say that Rocky stripping down and diving off the boat was a sign of stability, but diagnosing by comparing a reality TV character with someone in an autobiography probably goes too far. I agree with the original poster. I had a close friend that was suffered from manic depression. On a normal day, he was very straight-laced. Not that he didn't know how to have fun, but he was that guy that was super-serious. The kind you can't really imagine every having been a kid. In a manic phase, he'd call and suggest that we hop in the car and drive to Canada to gamble for the weekend or go out and spend his last dollar on an exotic animal because he wanted "a friend". The highs and lows were extreme, and I can see the similarities in Rocky. Its not so much the diving off the boat, its the extreme of everything. Having sex a couple of times in the laundry room becomes the greatest romance known to man. Feeling supportive of a co-worker against a common foe has become "BFFs". Everything is a superlative be it good or bad. Her ability to turn on an oven has morphed into "I'm a chef". There is no middle ground, moderation or even keel. Everything is at 1000. Another interesting thing about Rocky is that she lists her culinary education as ICE. While ICE does have a full-time culinary arts program for aspiring chefs, it also has individual classes that anyone can sign up to take. I've taken classes at ICE and I would never call myself a chef. Having taken a class there isn't necessarily indicative of her having any extensive formal education as a chef.

She wanted you to do the job that Rocky was hired to do and do it in a specific manner. She didn't even expect her to get it immediately and both Amy and Kate were patiently walking her through the procedures, in a situation Luke that it's important to have a system. And the few times she actually did her job correctly and without complaint she was quick with her praise.

HumblePi November 11, 2015 Share November 11, 2015 A person that is a 'ceiling gazer' like Rocky when talking to someone usually has something to hide. They are simply not being honest about what they're saying. Rocky is all about concealing her real self. Maybe she fears being seen as ordinary and that's the worse thing imaginable for Rocky. She wants to stand out and she'll do whatever it takes to do exactly that. She wants to present herself to others as a quirky, pretty, self-assured woman but in reality she only projects a person that's insecure, dishonest and desperate to be noticed.

Looks like Rocky was also on the show "Wipeout" a few years back. http://bitchbybravo.com/2015/11/13/breaking-news-rocky-dakota-bartlow-in-third-reality-tv-show-she-appeared-on-season-5-of-abc-tvs-wipeout-exclusive-videophotos/ Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1707494
leighroda November 13, 2015 Share November 13, 2015 I really hope someone can find a way to send that link to Kate, because the blogger dedicated a gif to her of Rocky face planting. I tried to tweet her, but I guess I don't follow her. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1707518
Uncle Benzene November 13, 2015 Share November 13, 2015 Ew. The person writing those posts on that web site has actually kicked the "trying way too hard" factor several notches up from Rocky herself. Shouldn't have clicked. Need a shower now. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1708591

fliptopbox November 25, 2015 Share November 25, 2015 (edited) The ceiling eyes thing could actually be a legit condition. It's called "oculogyric crisis" and it is basically the constant urge to look up. It's a type of dystonic reaction to different meds, such as antiemetics, antipsychotics, prokinetics, antidepressants, antiepileptics, and antimalarials . I know this because I have it and now have to take medication to prevent it...because it can become a really serious issue. For me it came from mixing two meds (Abilify and Domperidone, specifically) that when mixed together triggered that reaction and even though I don't take either med anymore the condition still stuck around. It also took me over a year to figure out what it was because it honestly seemed so ridiculous. So maaaaaybe that's Rocky's problem. I haven't watched the reunion yet so I dunno what her explanation is....but it could be an actual medical issue.

But I can commiserate, because I was once prescribed Lyrica and have had tinnitus ever since taking it years ago - and that is NOT a known side effect of the drug! 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1748403

leighroda November 27, 2015 Share November 27, 2015 Idk, I actually do it too (look up when I think) but it's more a split second thing not like I'm counting ceiling tiles. I've even been accused of rolling my eyes when I do it. I've taken very basic psychology but isn't that a sign of lying when you have to think that hard to answer? 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31688-raquel-rocky-dakota-master-of-the-ceiling-gaze/page/2/#findComment-1752515
