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

[everybody in Portugal]

Those are all features of BPD, but not DID (unless it’s actually BPD, which it usually is)

Protip: it's always BPD

Protip: it's always BPD

I don’t care enough to do serious research but I’d guess that post-Sybil at least 99.9% are BPD. It’s pre-Sybil that’s sorta interesting, I found this with a quick googling that should clarify what I mean: https://www.healthyplace.com/abuse/...history-of-dissociative-identity-disorder-did

Stuff like this though? BPD, or some other type-b drama queen nonsense.

Additionally, as more and more cases of DID were reported, more and more alternate personalities (alters) were reported in each case. The majority of cases noted by 1944 manifested with only two personalities, while there was an average of 15.7 alters noted in cases reported in 1997.

Cases like this one make question whether MPD/DID doesn’t exist very rarely

In 1791, the first detailed account of "exchanged personality" was written about a 20-year-old German woman who began to speak perfect French, behave like a French aristocrat and spoke German with a French accent. When she was the "French Woman" she remembered everything she did but as the "German Woman" she denied any knowledge of the "French Woman."

Its academic though, these girls are, at minimum, attention seeking messes.

Mea culpa: I was confusing DID with the umbrella term "Dissociative Disorder," which is pretty broad in criteria and probably does exist in rare cases. It's just not a Dx interesting enough for BPD theater kid/TikTok pageantry and ebegging.

During the downtime, I have been listening to the BBC podcast Believe In Magic about a Brit mother and daughter pair who munched and grifted their way to spending 4 months living at a Disney resort when they were supposed to be being treated in the USA. It's an interesting story and plenty of parallels to current munchies.

The podcast lays the blame on the MBP mum but I think the daughter is also culpable.

This article [archive] sets out the main points but there was interesting discussion in episode 7 about how a safeguarding review from the local authorities may lead to new procedures to safeguard adults who are vulnerable to this.

It's interesting how often you see the kid actually join the munch efforts. I don't think you can blame brainwashing or manipulation either, they aren't all Gypsy Rose with modified records and surgeries.

Many munch patterns come from munch families. They back each other up against doctors and trade tricks, but also squabble about who is sickest. People choose to stay and pursue munching and malingering like a family craft. It's gross. "oo, my aunt managed to lie her way into handicap placards, good parking for everyone!"

If anything, it can be surprisingly how each generation gets worse. Munch mom may have just played woozy or lied about headaches, she never would have imagined her kid would be rubbing shit in their wounds.

Also see similar patterns with obesity, each generation gets bigger than the last. It's like they see the shit behavior as a baseline to beat.

@Dnein oh boy I watched the interrogation footage for Gypsy Rose a few days ago. Pretty wild incident. I feel like she had a lot more to do with the killing than she let on. I'm sure she either coaxed her boyfriend into doing it, or she agreed when he brought it up. The Facebook posts she made saying things like "that bitch is dead" really show how involved she was.

I don't blame her at all. Given everything she went through, I do hope she gets let out early. I really don't think she plans on doing that again.

How did this thread get to the point that it's like 5% actual lolcow content, 20% arguing about BPD and 75% power leveling?

down time changes people, man

[Blobby's Murder Knife]

All the DID horseshit needs to be split out and sent to OT or Spergatory. It is a retarded slog of a slapfight that adds zero value to this thread. I am just here to laugh at retards faking shit. I don't want pages of discussion on what mental illnesses real and how. All munchies are mentally fucked up by default because they are munchies. Now let's see how many more tubes they can stick up their noses and out their asses.

Oh my god HERE

https://kiwifarms.st/threads/sperging-about-if-did-exists.165539/

Go sperg there about DID, I made a thread specifically for it. Go nuts.
NOW BACK ON TOPIC- anyone got updates on Rose from tictok?

Here's an update on Physicsgirl who is allegedly suffering from long-covid and being pampered by her slave of a husband. What is she doing to get better, you ask? Well, apparently not eating. According to her husband, physicsgirl's current dies consist of pistachios, apples, coconut milk, chiaseeds, hempseeds and butternut squash. Depending on the pg's level of neediness, the food is either chopped up or pureed for her enjoyment. Why long-covid is making her restrict like this is not explained.

Maybe she can soon join all the kate farm girlies?

[Less Nasty Old Person]

I've found a sort of Deathfat / Munch/Munch by proxy / genderspecial crossover lolcow with a youtube channel about dog grooming and a personal 'muh diagnoses' channel. She's a 300 pound they/them named Mary Beth Marr. She has a 9-ish year old daughter with 'special needs' who is a useful fundraising prop. The kid gets her head shaved on the regular in the poodle parlour because mom is gender neutral. She sleeps in a zip=up bed tent/cage to prevent bothering mom at night.

She has some pretty rabid haters over on reddit -- r/marybethmarr and r/marybethmarr2 because she's just too fucking huge for just one hate sub.

She does regular lives on YouTube but deletes them when done. She uses the for e-begging with (so far) a building to house her state of tthe art dog salon, cafe and car wash, which she abandoned about a year later in favor of a custom $110k mobile grooming van, which she's now dumped in favor of a lease on yet another 3
building.

She's apparently not a very skilled dog groomer and is noticeably rough with the dogs when she's stressed out. She features free grooms for matted and neglected shelter dogs.

She might deserve a thread of her own at some point, but for now:

Coconut milk is a natural laxative, its also of questionable safety to drink it regularly given it is frequently used to induce renal failure in india by families wanting to get rid of their elderly members. Between drinking that and combining it with a weird diet like that her digestion must be all kinds of fucked. If anything is making her sick i'll bet its that diet rather than anything 'long covid' related

people quite often resort to total woo when they feel modern medicine has failed them. not saying she isn't a munchie, just that its possible she's paid an inordinate amount of money to be told to eat like a macaque. the fact this diet will give her diarrhea and IBS will be passed off as a healing crisis or some shit. or she's just doing the age old passing off an eating disorder as something else.

I don't understand the complete covering of the eyes. It's very very bad to go without direct sunlight for a prolonged period of time, especially for your eyes. The amount of light observed by your eyes is directly involved in many biological processes related to your 'biological clock', blocking your eyes off from sunlight just throws that whole system out of whack. Messing with your circadian system is really fucking stupid.

I wanna have sympathy for this woman since she's seemingly not doing this for clout or monetary gain, but I really think whatever the hell they're doing is just making it worse.

I can empathise if she has light blue eyes. I can't really tell if she does or not, but you're much, MUCH more sensitive to light if they're pale blue. You also have much less melanin in your skin so you can become extremely prone to burns.

That's coconut water, but that's anecdotal at best.
She's more at risk of heart attack from getting fat from the saturated fat from the coconut milk and laying down all the time.

[Kate Farms Shill]

Welp. Something finally inspired me to log in on Tor. Cheyanne (Hospital Princess) got her organs. N/s if she got the cute pediatric princess organs she wanted or icky grown up ones, but she got a liver, pancreas, stomach and intestines. Hilariously for someone whose primary complaint was her MCAS made her allergic to literally every food, water, feeding tube formula, TPN, and even the smell of food, she can now eat fruit, yogurt, and soup without issues. They must have given her a mast cell transplant while they were in there!

She also got an infection and likely graft vs. host disease from the transplant tissue.

Also thanks for posting your husband's number for me.


If you don't want to read the whole exhaustive 5 post timeline I did here's a

Spoiler: tl;dr

Cheyanne started with an obvious eating disorder and fear of adulthood which turned into "gastroparesis", later MCAS which she claimed was so severe she reacted to every single food. Had to move from Florida to South Carolina after aging out of pediatrics because every doctor in the vicinity of her home believed it was an ED. Got a feeding tube and started claiming her MCAS reacted to every formula on the market. She then got a hickman placed for TPN and claimed to react to the lipids from that and to the plastic it came in so she could only run the carbohydrate/protein components at a very slow rate. At the height of her disorder she was claiming to go into anaphylaxis from the smell of food and making her family cook and eat in the garage so she didn't have to be around it. C. 2018 she started trying to make a custom modular formula which was really an excuse to stop running feeds/TPN all together and "trial" individual formula components at an agonizingly slow rate (like literally one teaspoon of amino acid blend mixed with sterile water for infants, and that's all she'd try for a week while consuming nothing else.) In 2019 she developed hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH), a rare liver-melting autoimmune disease caused by long term TPN and exacerbated by her no-fat diet. At the same time she was having life threatening bowel obstructions and her intestines literally started disintegrating from being scoped. She had to have her Jejunal feeding tube removed because it was eroding her insides. She went into actual liver failure from the HLH and turned neon yellow.

I never get tired of talking about exactly how fucked she was at that point: bile backed up in her failing liver from the TPN, but wasn't released because she was not able to eat or drink anything or run feeds because her intestines would fall apart if she did. Instead she was supposed to eat something small (often one individual noodle every few hours) because it would activate her stomach which would then activate her liver, then suck the food out of her G-tube immediately. A tiny tiny amount of this food would not be removed from her stomach when she drained it which was enough to make her intestines bleed and fall apart which let poopy bacteria leak into her bloodstream and caused sepsis. When she had sepsis, they had to take her TPN away until the infection was gone and during this time her liver crashed her blood albumin and made her develop ascites. And she was still having tantrums and burning bridges if the hospital dared to use the wrong plastic tubing.

When she finally hit the end of the line when she was going to fucking die if she didn't stop her shit, she was suddenly able to tolerate small amounts of juice, some foods, her TPN lipids, and her liver medication but at that point damage done. High dose steroids made her bones collapse, her intestines totally failed, and she needed a multi-visceral transplant.

Again, it's funny how her complaint before was allergies to everything, which included rashes and hives and anaphylaxis to medications, makeup, shampoo, adhesive, fragrances, and anything else she didn't want to be around but now she has no allergy complaints. The food isn't making her throat close and the rash isn't an allergy. For once she isn't lying. I do wonder if she had a genuine come-to-jesus moment when she thought she was going to die or if the new, real problems are just enough to scratch the itch for her. She almost never posts these days so we may never know.

More exciting for me and only me, she had to move again after burning every bridge imaginable over the years but she's been super tight lipped about it. Maybe she mentioned it in stories I missed, but in grid she never mentioned it. I don't think she even explicitly stated she moved out of SC, just that she bought a house. All her photos were close-cropped and taken either in her home or in a nondescript location. Even the hospital photos were cropped to remove anything saying the hospital name. But thanks to our old friend PoisonHivey, she finally posted something identifiable: a hot air balloon.


It's at Conner Prairie in Fishers, Indiana, just outside Indianapolis.


In case there's any lingering doubt that I have the right place, in January she posted this pic of her and Vino with some tropical foliage.


Garfield Park Conservatory, Indianapolis.


I mean, I could have just googled her name and found her new address, but what's the fun in that? BTW their house is a hideous, generic subdivision design that just screams "cul-de-sac"


...which is exactly what it's on. 2315 Pheasant Run, Westfield, IN 46074.


I don't generally bother with finding addresses these days but when they don't want me to know I feel like I have to.
