Community Munchausen's by Internet (Malingerers, Munchies, Spoonies, etc) - Feigning Illnesses for Attention

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Is there a single munchie on earth that actually believes they are a munchie? No. They will all point the finger at someone else who is definitely a munchie but them? Nope they are the only person truly suffering. If you have to state you aren't a munchie....you're a munchie.
To be fair, some of them either directly or indirectly respond to their thread and try to address criticisms. They wouldn't do that if some part of them didn't know there is at least a possibility they are suffering Munchausen's.

It’s been a while since any of them showed up here though, hasn’t it? Not sure if I missed anything at some point recently

In one of her videos she explained that she has a less severe case than typical because she has a compound heterozygous mutation (typical cases are some form of homozygous mutatiion I guess?). And she apparently is going to be part of a research study spanning a decade. The information is within the first several minutes of the video.

I've always thought of Cheyanne as one of the munchies who is legitimately sick but also happens to be a drama queen who got used to making sickness into her identity. She's spoken about having to be in the hospital for long periods of time as a child, that probably would leave some sort of mark of it being part of who she is. Getting a bunch of positive attention for it probably doesn't help either.
TLDR: She's not full of shit, just shitty.

View attachment 3145197Bonus, I found this comment from Victoria while I was trying to find the video.
Cheyanne has an eating disorder she very very barely hid behind her alleged diseases. A few years ago someone was collabing on a deep dive on her, but we never published it because they got cold feet about how close to death she was. IIRC they had figured out her early hospitalizations were mostly her starving herself sick, getting put in the hospital, and then her mom screaming it wasn't anorexia and shopping around for a different diagnosis. I very strongly remember one of the things they found while digging was that she would hang out on MyProAna and those types of sites claiming she was doing research for school projects.

Her main problem that caused the rapid organ failure was she was TPN-dependent and claiming no oral consumption at all because of MCAS, but also claimed she reacted to every single lipid complex because ana-chan. TPN with no lipids blended her liver into paste in a short amount of time. Then while she was in the hospital for the liver issue she started shitting blood clots and by her description her intestine was so fragile from disuse it was falling apart while they were trying to scope her. They told her she needed a multi-visceral transplant and that she needed to be on megadose steroids. She had a little baby temper tantrum that she couldn't use steroids and lipids and accused the hospital staff of trying to kill her or something, they sent her packing.

Suddenly when they told her that was it, end of the line, and she would die without a transplant, she could tolerate steroids and her lipids just fine. She looked like moonface lisa simpson for a long time and i guess after years of compliance they let her get listed for transplant. I don't know why she's okay with this genetic mutation, whether she's lying about it or it's an incidental finding while she scrambled for a way to make this Not Her Fault or it's one of those things that doesn't always cause disease but is found on autopsy when it does. Who knows?

Her diet pre-TPN was nuggies, oreo cakesters, and candy which she "tolerated" but only in small amounts. Typical junk food ana.

Having an ak-tual diagnosis is meaningless since most munchies have a DX for something that can't be tested for. Fibro is one of those things. Enjoy your wastebasket diagnosis with 0 credibility. Most people with chronic pain and fatigue suffer from a high level of deconditioning. The longer you stay in bed and stationary, the harder it becomes to live a normal life. It's a rut that you need consistency and dedication to get out of. And you're going to feel like shit while you're working on it. This covers most POTS patients as well. Lose weight + lift weight. It works.
DiaryoftaMunchieKid is/was interesting. She acknowledges she's a munchie who injures herself on purpose and sabotages healing but claims every new toy she gets is something she really needs that isn't related to her munchausen.

Cheyenne also insisted pre-TPN that she could only run a specific infant formula (not designed for tube feeding, just normal infant milk formula) through her feeding tube, and went as far as to mix said formula in actual baby bottles. She’s so obsessed with being small and childlike that her ED to munchie pursuit of that is killing her. Didn’t she also claim to need an oncologist and bone marrow transplant (that never happened afaik) for her totally real MCAS? And don’t even get me started on her bizarre and frankly disgusting “Hospital Princess” handle, that alone should qualify her as a champion munchie.

She sure did have a BMT saga.


She needed a BMT to survive the multi-visceral transplant because if not her immune system would reject them or something. I can't stand listening to her talk so I just read the auto-generated transcripts. Then suddenly she was going to be in a long-term study that required bone marrow biopsies all the time. Last time she mentioned getting a BMT was months ago and she was on the fence about whether or not she was going to go through with it.

Also worth mentioning her whole exome sequencing was done by a company called ProbablyGenetic, who offer at-home genetic tests and target munchies on social media. She also is their social media person as of Sept 2021.

I forgot she was the baby bottle one. Yeah she's obsessed with being smolbbygorl, and the "i need pediatric organs!" is an extension of that. I honestly hope she dies so some kid who didn't cause their illness can have those organs, fuck. She's a nasty piece of work constantly trying to blame every medical professional and the companies that make the things she supposedly needs to stay alive for her many health woes. She once tried to claim that some neonate formula she was on was contaminated and start a recall to get out of running her feeds. One of the reasons the hospital fired her was because they didn't have the exact correct IV tubing and shit and she kept screeching they couldn't use anything else because of her MCAS while she was in there with sepsis or a bowel obstruction or something that was an actual "you will fucking die" emergency. She fucked with her J-tube so much she almost died from the same complication that killed Jaquie at one point. And miraculously, whenever her lines get pulled because she gives herself infections, she can magically "tolerate" juice and oral meds.
 
Lol at that “Hospital Princess”, jfc. She sounds like a piece of work, nothing annoys me more than munchies taking organs, blood products, etc from those who have zero control over their situation. What a little cunt.

It seems like the majority of munchies I’ve run into lately have been the anorexia/former anorexic masking type. It’s well documented that anorexia can cause some nasty gastro issues down the line, with gastroparesis being one of the common offenders, alongside the usual cardio and osteo shit. It boggles my mind as to why all these anachan munchies go on to make up really elaborate backstories about “it was the oh-so-rare hEDS (but never a detectable type)/MCAS/extremely rare genetic mutation that no one understands making it hurt to eat all along!” when a lot of the after effects of being anorexic can genuinely fucking suck. Why not just lean into those for their asspats? Some sort of stigma thing in a desperate attempt to not being seen as mentally ill, even in past tense? How ableist, oh dear.

Because while there's a lot of romanticizing eating disorders there's still this underlying idea that it's something you've done or accomplished. The pro-ana weirdos think it's something they can work hard to achieve and normies think "just eat a sandwich, damn" or "Imagine starving yourself to death in a culture where food is everywhere". It doesn't have the "oh poor you" factor of being born into a fucked up body you can't fix and it doesn't come with permanent toys - you get tubed if your weight gets too low, fattened, and then they take your toy away. You don't get a luxury powerdrive wheelchair for everyday use for the rest of your life, you get Ashley Isaacs' transport chair she can't self-propel in but is too weak to go without. You don't get a super special service dog to alert to the fact that you haven't eaten today. Etc etc.

In short, if you have anorexia people expect you to get better and any lingering complications are "oh well, what did you expect?" whereas an illness you can't cure and didn't cause = forever asspats.

I've seen examples of chronic alcoholics or people otherwise judged to be incapable of the upkeep of the organ being refused transplants.

Why would any medical ethicist give a CHILDS organs to an ana who would only re munch them into a paste.

MOTI but I would actually rather see this person die in minecraft that have a child's precious organs be used for this.

Ah, then by my count, she's munching.

I too like to pull random %s out of my ass but use two different ones on the same page of my website.

What actually happened is that miss munchie submitted her DNA and got back two incidental/non-pathogenic mutations in genes, one of which she could munch hardcore about and happened to line up with her self-inflicted GI damage. Considering that this rare disease is, well, rare, and almost always fatal in early life, what really is the chances of her really having it?

This also explains the two mutations thing. We all have many, many single nucleotide variations of which almost none are pathogenic. Therefore, a proper case study isn't gonna give a rats ass about an incidental mutation cause each of us has thousands of them. But a random company that did the sequencing? Isn't gonna give a shit.

I can't believe she might have munched hard enough to get in a case study for a disease she don't have.
 
Is there a single munchie on earth that actually believes they are a munchie? No. They will all point the finger at someone else who is definitely a munchie but them? Nope they are the only person truly suffering. If you have to state you aren't a munchie....you're a munchie.
I just tried to find the post but unfortunately can’t, but there was a fascinating post on Reddit (maybe it was /r/MunchSnark) where 1 or 2 former munchies were telling their stories. The one I remember said she was fully aware she was a munchie the entire time. Not in denial, but consciously faking it. I think she said she had a broken ankle as a child and became addicted to the attention or something so just kept finding other ways to seek it.

Until that post I assumed they’re all in deep self-brainwashed denial or delusion. But since reading that, I just assume all munchies know exactly what they’re doing.

Anorexia is an ugly rat-monster of a disease. It is monstrous and transforms a person into something monstrous as a result. The munchies don’t own up to the eating disorders or consequences thereof because they are still under its hold. I tried to insert an image but it’s not working for me right now, but imagine that picture of a possum defending its full dumpster with the “don’t touch my garbage!!!!!!!!!!!” caption. That’s anorexics with their disease. They’re terrified to give it up because they believe it is the only thing that keeps them from immediately becoming fat. They’ll die to defend it like an infested host protecting that which has infested it, like they are being manipulated like a puppet from the inside.

That behavior looks quite a bit more sane, if not exactly reasonable, from the outside. Hence the lack of sympathy. It appears that anorexics are purposefully, knowingly sabotaging their own health. Of course that isn’t really true but you can understand a normie’s response to it. Funnily enough, I have observed that truly recovered anorexics get a lot of sympathy from their support network about the long-term consequences because then it IS something they are not actively inducing in themselves. But that requires recovery which is unacceptable to most with an active eating disorder.

Re: “am bby” behavior. I’ve observed self infantilism in both anorexics and munchies. It doesn’t appear to me to be fetish-based, like you’d see in trans-identified males, but more like a fear of being seen as capable of assuming responsibility for one’s own life. What’s that about? Is it a symptom of a personality disorder or something?
 
A super old episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is on the TV on one of those shitty over the air stations. Episode focuses on a family that adopted 13 Haitian, inner city, and retarded kids. According to this family in their sob story tape, all hell broke loose when the mom was "diagnosed" with Ehler-Danlos as an adult. They show her on the couch, looking like she's in a stereotypical fainting on the couch position as she has a saline drip and a voiceover states that she "had" to get part of her intestines removed. She's also talking as I type this about how her temperature plummets during the winter (no shit, it's cold during the winter in Toledo). I know it's not "internet munchies" but I'm getting strong munchie vibes from this episode. Especially since she seems and is acting relatively fine otherwise.
 
So I've been a bit quiet on Casey (Wheelie Boy does a spin ) and I figured it was time to finish the saga out.
Original timeline and the DFE

Last we left Casey, they claimed that they didn't actually have POTs but just had such severe anemia that it left them wheelchair bound. However that hasn't stopped Casey from still using and filming in their wheelchair.

  • In a munchie first, Casey decided to make themselves the single fugliest jacket I've ever seen that has pockets for Narcan and first aid supplies as well as patches and buttons about their pronouns and identity.
  • Casey has now decided that despite the Canadian government giving them a free place to live, and having willingly left their mum's home that they are homeless and impoverished.
  • They're now a DID system that contains an ageless British archangel named Uriel. They clearly have never met or heard a British person talk based on their fake accent.
  • By reposting their content without their permission we face "fines or jail time for copyright infringement, libel, harassment and other criminal charges"

Part 2 & Part 3
Fun fact Casey's back at it again. Claiming hypermobility / hEDS, hinting at POTS, yelling at his mom because she won't give up her office for him to sleep in.
He has a walker now, mom bought it for him, he's working his way back up to a wheelchair, talks abt it constantly.
I have his socials & proof of everything I'm saying
He's crazier than u think lol.
Wanted to post him to reddit but munchsnark is defunct

Important timeline things:
- moved back home from the transitional after going into someone's room, taking their kitten and leaving passive aggressive & borderline obsessive notes abt how this girl was "neglecting" her kitten while he posted pics of maggots in his cats litter box

-calls his transitional house homelessness, called himself living with his mom homeless

- crowdfunded 4k for a supposed friend that he brought to his moms house to live with them without asking his mom if said friend, his gf, and cat could come

- don't doubt he stole money from that like he did with his wheelchair gfm last yr

- claims hes gonna get osteoarthritis by having to walk up the stairs/his whole he wants his moms office thing is here tol
https://imgur.com/a/bjFHJS4

- claims he's so hypermobile he can't hold a cup

- today posted a tiktok saying "when you're disabled but can't afford an expensive wheelchair and get hurt because of that" when where he lives, if he can prove he's disabled the gov program will pay 75%-100% of a wheelchair. Link has other miscellaneous he wants a wheelchair talk
https://imgur.com/a/VN6rU3S

- compared the fact he's "too hypermobile to hold cups" to needing plastic straws, and compared that to having a feeding tube.
Same link as a few above sorry https://imgur.com/a/iL8njL5

Edit: I'll finish updating w/ links later

I bet this started happening after the attention and ass-pats from adopting 13(!) of them started wearing off and she had to deal with the reality of actually raising these high-needs kids.

Sounds like Mom didn't think through the consequences of adopting 13 special needs kids and now needs a wasting disease so she's not responsible for their care.
