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

[vanilla_pepsi_head]

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't paige be able to get a flat with welfare and disability payments? Or some form of accommodation under palliative care like a group home or a hospice?

Not sure if this applies to New Zealand the way it does in Canada and the US, but here if you're collecting benefits, they'll stop paying for your housing if you've spent enough consecutive time in hospital or in a nursing home because the government is covering your stay and they don't want to essentially foot the bill for your housing twice. Probably a nightmare for actual sick or disabled people but it is what it is. If New Zealand has a similar rule I'd guess this is how she lost her housing. If it was indeed public housing and not a case of her parents paying rent to be rid of her, she must not realize how hard she lucked out by scoring a separate apartment as a young, single person with no children without sitting on a waiting list for a decade. You'd have to be one stupid bitch to fuck that up because you are addicted to the freedom from responsibility and attention health care professionals are forced to give you when you sepsis yourself for the nth time.

I had a feeling I would have to explain this to people in the US, palliative care in NZ and a lot of other places aren't limited to when you are literally about to die of a terminal illness, it's for anybody with a life limiting condition which Paige would fall under if she actually had any of the conditions she ays she has.

Palliative care means exactly what you're saying it does everywhere, including the US, at least to my knowledge. Most laypeople don't realize palliative care and hospice care are two different things and use the terms interchangeably as you've noticed, but it's just a widespread misconception by the general retarded public, not an actual difference in definition.

Honestly, I don't think it's impossible Paige really could end up on comfort/hospice care. Paige has proven that no matter how hard doctors work to treat her, she will inevitably do something to herself that makes it so she gets worse instead of better. Medical care is not only pissing into the wind at this point, maybe people have an ethical problem giving her tools (toobs, access to IV lines, medications to abuse, whatever else) when they know she will only use them to hurt herself more efficiently. It's certainly hard to imagine a mid-20s person who could easily recover (at least physically) well enough to have a decent quality of life for many years could end up on hospice care. It'd be very unusual for doctors to give up on Paige as a lost cause when she seeks out medical treatment when she's extremely ill and her major life-limiting handicap is a psych condition. Psych conditions rightly or wrongly are typically considered treatable no matter what, even if we all know there isn't a snowballs chance in hell they're going to get any better, we are obligated to give them life-saving treatment every time, even if they always end up back in the hospital in a couple days as a result of their own self destructive behavior. On the other hand, if anyone could be so insufferable to make a bunch of doctors just say fuck it, it'd be Paige.

The post surgical fentanyl fog has worn off and like a Troon with a shiny new fauxgina Rose is facing the reality of what she's done to herself.

Munchies love to larp as the most disabled person in the history of ever, but once something happens and they end up facing actual difficulties or barriers that they can't just turn on or off whenever they choose, they really do not fucking like it. Turns out disability isn't fun and games but actually a tedious pain in the ass, who knew. She certainly flew a little too close to the sun with that one and knows it, but I doubt it will shock her out of munching, it almost never does.

I don't think she has subsidised housing because the waiting lists are so long and she's not a high priority case since a) she's a single woman with no dependents and b) she spends most of her time in hospital anyway. Last I heard the waiting list in NZ was a bare minimum of 5 years (and more like 7 in practice).

I'm from Australia rather than NZ but we tend to have very similar policies when it comes to medicine and social welfare. You don't lose government housing here just because you're spending a huge amount of your time in hospital. I would be very surprised if NZ were any different. It would be a consideration when applying for housing, though.

New Zealand has a government owned company called Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) which will be covering all of her direct medical costs. Because the governments of the past have drowned in the kool-aid, they have defined someones health status to be a protected status. The government would be acting illegally if they were to cut her money off because of her sicknesses, even if they are self inflicted. She will no doubt be getting the disability benefit ($408per week), accommodation supplement ($108 per week) & various other allowances. There is 0 chance she is going to be having any trouble with finances. I'm surprised shes not figured out any of these Tik Tok scams to extort money from people doing live videos.

If anyone could be so insufferable to make a bunch of doctors just say fuck it, it'd be Paige.

I fucking agree. She pushes it to the point where they have no other choice. You can clearly see that the nurses are sick of her shit by the way they bridled her feeding tubes. They know she is fucking with it. Worst of all, she is actively taking up hospital beds by doing all of this bullshit when everywhere is critically short staffed.

The waiting list for a state house is years. It's hard enough for a family with young kids to get into a house, she has no shit show of even getting on the list. As I said above, she will be getting illness payments and other assistance. It's quite easy to game the financial assistance in NZ, there are people who help you "get what you're entitled to" which is code for "I'll show you how to extort money from the government and not have to work".

Head-bobbing munch Dani tagged her latest bestie Rachel @dyingto_eat, a girl she's planning to meet up with. This munchie Queen is quite something
Her twin titty-hickmans piqued my interest so enjoy this little timeline of dyingto_eat, the champion toobie with all the toys that you know the other girls are sick with envy over.

She begins as they all do; a common or garden eating disorder recovery account.

The last of these posts she admits her therapist isn't very happy with her

And then....

A gastroparesis babe is born and she gets her very first training toob.


She likes it!

Now this girl does not waste any time at all,
For some reason shes pretty quickly bridled, a picc line is suggested but she races straight to a port.

Its around this time she starts abusing phenergan. She also starts abusing filters to obscure her pupils so we can't see she's off her face most of the time now.


Doesn't like port number one and gets a second one placed.



Separate G and J toobs so she can purge! Yay!
This girl is good. I don't know how she's doing it but boy can she munch.

More phenergan and something that sounds suspiciously like opioid withdrawals.
She starts complaining of pain from her toobs A LOT.

Gets told off for exercise purging.

Can't stop exercise purging and having totally normal and healthy thoughts about her toob feeds. This is definitely a physical health issue and not just a raging eating disorder.


Obligatory bae caught me slipping pic.



Totally healthy thoughts about toob feeds.


Liquid morphine and phenergan in the toob


Oh noes my toob feeds I am trying to run them and the pumps keep breaking



Gets a suprapubic catheter. No explanation.


Infects it



Dysautonomia (drink!)


SMAS (Drink!)


Gets a caecostomy (like evie toombes) she's killed her bowel with laxative abuse.


Assorted munching

Spoiler

Goes on palliative care



Titty Hickman #1 is installed and she is visibly aroused.




I my toobs (she really is like a super saiyan dani)



Goes to see that munchie film


Fucks about and finds out


And finally she basks in post coital ecstasy with no explanation as titty hickman #2 is installed.

Look at that face. She wins at munching and she fucking knows it.

 

[Brenda Tits]

Oh she's definitely going to munch herself to an early grave. What a complete mystery those magnesium levels are... whatever could be causing that?

 

[Sparkling Yuzu]

I don't remember her being posted here, but yeah, I'm comfortable calling her a munchie. Is she wearing a panda costume to talk about her PANDAS?

PANDAS is itself a controversial entity, much touted by "functional medicine specialists", and some experts remain highly skeptical.

My brother dated a teen girl with PANDAS for a short time when he was a teen. She was diagnosed with PANDAS and anxiety but was a total BPD nutcase. I felt she wanted my mom's affection in a motherly way more than my brother's. I think she felt unprotected by her real mum when her ex step brother sexually abused her as a child.

Isn't PANDAS supposed to be autoimmune though? So you should be able to measure CRP and easily rule out who has excess inflammation or not, right? Interesting that proponents claim it's caused by childhood strep infection. That is an accepted factor in the development of guttate psoriasis, a common pediatric form of psoriasis.

Pandas is an autoimmune disease. I have some experience working with a person with it. Diet and medication tends to be an important part, and if you aren't on top of it you can mess yourself up pretty bad.

She's definitely found the same munch hack as Evie T. You can flush everything out of yourself and REALLY fuck with your osmotic balance with all those lovely lines and toobs all along the digestive tract.
Where is there left to go now but death? Pretty sure this is the most concurrent toobs I've seen on a munch without ever getting one yoinked against their will.
Dani must be absolutely seething but also desperate to learn the secrets of this High Priestess. This friendship will be one to watch.
Will Dani be gunning for a caecostomy next?

If she's on a PPI (proton pump inhibitor, such as pantoprazole, esomeprazole) they are well known to wash out your magnesium. They're very commonly prescribed for chronic nausea too.

She never actually mentions a PPI, she REALLY likes phenergan, but it could be part of the picture. She's certainly worked out a way to fuck herself up the moment the hospital aren't looking despite maximum magnesium in her feeds and supplements.
I reckon the most likely thing is she just ain't running them and purging like hell at the same time. That caecostomy seems to be the key. Evie Toombes does the exact same magnesium trick and that's great fun for munchers cos you can induce apparent heart issues with magnesium.

oh yes, very good point. and if she wants an arrhythmia (with all the fun attention that gets) it's a good way to do it.
her double Hickmans are puzzling though, I've never seen that before.

I think how she managed to munch two entire hickmans is
1 lumen dedicated to tpn
2 other lumens for 2 other meds shes on that can't mix
And then manages to throw such fuckery into the mix with this magnesium trick that she ends up with presumably 2 more meds/supplements that also can't mix with others and ends up with a lumen spare just in case.
Presuming absolutely no meds at all can go into her digestive system at this point.

It's called a tit-them you racist.

Whatever its called I think we can all agree we want to see her hop up onto the doctors table and start twirling those babies. Make it rain prescriptions.

It's super easy to tank your magnesium and potassium levels. Particularly if you already have an eating disorder. There's loads of medications that can do it. I'm not going to post it here for the sake of not-encouraging-munching, but it's not super secret knowledge and I highly doubt the doctors are mystified.

 

[large_farva]

Looks like Tanzchelsea is having a bad reaction to Rose getting a trach and all the attention she's getting for pretending to be dying from stiff person syndrome.
Chelsea is seen here ramping up her antics while her sister is in the ICU with a very real health problem that could actually kill her.
She's also wrapped up in trying to prove to the trolls that she's totally not faking all of this and it's not just all psychosomatic.

what does she mean when she says she's only allowed to yell help once a day?

Chelsea has been yeeted from the hospital and kicked off all her meds. Her elderly mother is looking after her on top of her other caring responsibilities and has probably told Chelsea she's put hard limits on her fuckery.
She's being hilariously dramatic at one point claiming her mother was spraying canned air in her face as she slowly suffocated because the hospital took away her oxygen cylinders.

She's also being a real cunt to her supportive followers

It's all fun and games until torsades de pointes comes to visit.

The fact that she's on the munchie speed run world record and knows how to fuck her electrolytes up makes me think she worked in medicine in some capacity. Unfortunately it's weirdly common for healthcare workers to snap and munch out.

The ana chans have been passing the trade secrets around their forums for years. Now they've branched out into quite highly technical munching too.
