This also reads like a Bipolar person

It mostly reads like a speed freak, though.

 

[Diana Moon Glampers]

Now we have an answer about why she was claiming to have visual disturbances.

I'm sure her "meds" are probably more steroids to stop her crippling withdrawal from steroids. I would imagine Vicki's constant cycling on and off high-dose corticosteroids must wreak havoc on a lot of her organs.

 

[MirnaMinkoff]

It mostly reads like a speed freak, though.

I think she still gets to abuse opiate scripts (and/or benzos) because she’s incredibly physically inactive for a stimulant addict. Combining the two explains why she can tweet all day sitting in her apartment. Most speed freaks go nuts being just cooped up in a room all day, but then when Vicky goes out she uses a power-wheelchair. Siting still in a chair and staying in bed would make the average speed freak go nuts.

Take oxys or Ativan, but then a stimulant to keep her brain going enough to interact on a screen for hours. The opiates also give temporary euphoric energy bursts that I see signs of in her tweet sprees and new project ideas.

Ive always assumed 60% of Vicky’s devotion to all her physical ailments and wheelchair is getting various drugs. Does she take (or claim to take) a bunch of other meds that don’t get her high? Yes, but that’s part of the drug seeker/ addict game. If they don’t go along with all the other solutions and meds then it’s very obvious the only goal is drugs that get her high. Therefore they make a big production about all the non-narcotic meds. The smart ones pretend they help or acknowledge some benefit, the dumber ones immediately shit on anything that’s not an opiate or benzo (see Luna Slater) and demand nothing will work besides the strongest opiate or Xanax. It’s also why Vicky makes such a production about talking about non-narcotic meds. Throwing tantrums about her mom withholding oxys almost got her out in rehab, she had to change her strategy.

She’d be a compliant, but demanding, patient for the doctors giving her the scripts she wants annd along with all the other BS they can bill her insurance for, because all she wants “is to get better”. She would be hell on wheels to the doctors not giving her what she wants. Lots of ER trips to prove “how sick she is” etc… Vicky adapts her manipulation tactics to get what she wants.

Also her being inpatient at a hospital for days for fucking colonoscopy prep sounds like an opiate addict who never shits having to clean out their bowels and making an epic production out of it. Chronic constipation was likely the only problem.

 

[Temperance]

I don’t think she takes opiates on the regular anymore.
I’m pretty sure she’s too much of a wuss to buy street drugs, too

She is constantly trying to score oxy and I think she's mentioned being prescribed it in the past

Agreed.

As someone who’s currently on non-opioid pain meds and may one day need opioids, and even needed opioids for major surgery two weeks ago, I understand where you’re coming from. I really do. My life has at times been ruined by pain, rendered completely unbearable. At one point, I was living with literally the worst pain in my life, 10/10, nothing has ever compared, and my doctor at the time still refused to prescribe pain meds. It’s so important for people with devastating chronic pain to be able to get access to opioids should they need it. People who were just in accidents need their pain controlled. People getting surgery should get opioids during their surgery, and, depending on the surgery, opioids after. Pain management is incredibly important to health and quality of life.

I’m at the point of needing to use a wheelchair and being basically completely unable to walk without opioids.

when I was in the ER yesterday they tried seeing if my abdominal pain was intractable by giving me an opioid which did not work for my abdominal pain but gd I forgot how wonderfully it helps my chronic pain. how I can actually sleep. how much more energy I have

and I got forced off of it. and will likely never have adequate pain management again…

like fuck even if I could just have some “just in case” pills for when my pain is not manageable, which happens a smattering of times a month. it would make such a difference

Semi-related irony:

As someone who legitimately suffers from life altering pain, I’m pretty annoyed that other people’s abuse is impacting my ability to access medically necessary medication.

She has whined a lot about opioids on Twitter: https://x.com/search?q=from:vvictorman_uel opioid OR opioids&src=typed_query&f=live

Vicky is trying to convince us once more that she is totes 100% having queer kinky sexy sex- moreover she is an expert at it!
I'm in a good mood today so I'll help her- she can publish her fanfics on AO3

Lol:




I'm actually inclined to believe her Grindr misadventures were real... but took place 5+ years and 100 lbs ago. After her Grindr hookups, she seemed to consider her feelings of revulsion (from having sex with random degens) as akshually being evidence that she's "asexual".

The tweets from 2018 are either hell of suspect or hell of disgusting -- Vicky was born in 2000, making her just one side or the other of legal there.

 

[Temperance]

Vicky was born in 2000

You might be thinking of her brother. Victoria's DOB seems to be September 9th, 1998.
With that said, I wouldn't necessarily be surprised if she was on Grindr as a teenager.

 

[behindyourightnow]

LMAO. Hey, maybe she's not actually munching this one!

Yet more proof that "asexuality" (when it isn't caused by SSRIs) is almost always just young people fucking up their brains with porn addictions. You're horny and yet not attracted to "real people," but that akshually just means you have a special queer identity, it's nothing to do with you training your brain for 5+ years to only get off on gay furry inflation ABO art.

Love that she lets slip that what she means by "sex" consists of chatting with random losers on "kink sites." This is what most troons also mean when they say "sex" by the way. It's why troons can't conceive of things like sexual orientation being anything more than a "preference." Sex takes place in the theoretical realm for them, so why does it even matter if the person you're sexting has a penis or not? That's just discrimination.

This also reads like a Bipolar person

I highly doubt she's got legit bipolar (as opposed to a BPD mess seeing an NP or LCSW "bipolar"). One of the hallmarks of bipolar is that, even untreated, sufferers have lengthy periods of being functional between episodes. So while you may end up with a bipolar patient as a 26 year old undergrad, they're likely to have completed many credit hours and declared at least one major - honestly you're probably more likely to end up with someone who has 140 credits but is unable to graduate because they've changed majors too many times, than somebody who is 30 credits in with no declared major.

Legitimately manic people also Do Things. Often not useful things, but they start and quit jobs, register companies, get married/divorced, impulse buy houses and cars, walk or run for hours in the middle of the night, move suddenly, go on crazy road trips/vacations, and just generally leave the house or at least write a massive amount of shit while covering their walls in tinfoil. Prednisone causes mania and I doubt a legitimately bipolar person could be on that amount of prednisone without getting arrested.

I think this is simple BPD with sprinkle of drug use, or a combination of uppers and downers that accentuates the BPD. If it was just uppers or mania, we would see some evidence of long form writing, not 200 characters 5 times a day, and she'd be pacing the streets not scooty puffing around.

 

[The Judean People's Front]

I highly doubt she's got legit bipolar

Oh, 100% agree. I meant that more in a "in a vacuum these symptoms could be many things" kind of way. Bipolar people are often extraordinarily talented in some way and Vicky is bad at everything, even munching.

 

[Flamin Park]

Someone needs to teach Vicky the term "casual sex"
That's what it's called when you bang people because you're horny but you're not looking for some deep connection. Not "asexual",

See also FWB, fuckbuddies, one night stand etc etc
Not everything is an identity you silly little girl

 

[Diana Moon Glampers]

"Sometimes I'm very horny and sometimes I just don't want to have sex! After a bad sexual experience, I often go weeks or months without wanting to bang!"

Yeah, you're so weird and quirky, what an unusual way to be. Must be some kind of extremely niche identity.

I wonder how much of this nonsense has come from the over-diagnosis craze of the '90's and early 2000's. Everything was medicalized, even little boys who didn't want to sit still for 8 hours. The children who grew up in this culture are largely the ones coming up with shit like Demisexual and Ace-but-only-when-im-not-horny.

I assume you mean that’s when the over-diagnosis craze started, because where I’m at I see no signs that this insanity is waning?

 

[CyberInu]

Oh, there's no hope. We're just overdiagnosing other things now. I maintain that the concept of "mental illness" should have never been introduced into popular culture, nor should kids be discussing mental health, as it leads to fixation and spontaneous idiopathic symptom development (aka sudden and without an underlying cause).

Psychologists, psychotherapy, and psychiatry was always meant to be an alchemical fusion of spirituality and metaphysical meaning, not a hard science that dictates your life. It was the playground of wealthy eccentrics who dabbled in philosophy and theology (and occasionally, Theosophy).

Anna-Marie the 13 year old who feels uncomfortable with her body and feels anxious when talking to strangers would have been given a pat on the head and a word of encouragement, not 27 lifelong daily medications, a butcher's "surgery", and the law forcing every person in her life to gaslight her forever.

 

[The Judean People's Front]

spontaneous idiopathic symptom development (aka sudden and without an underlying cause).

Iatrogenic is the term you're describing, and you're correct that therapy carries risk and that risk is people developing mental illness from the treatment. We, as a society, bang on about the benefits of therapy but never the risks. The line is generally "it can't hurt!" But it can, which is why the "therapy for everyone!" movement is so dangerous and why teens today are sadder and more disconnected than ever despite having received more therapy than any previous generation.

See Victoria Markhoff

In a rare moment where I wholeheartedly agree with Katie Herzog from Blocked and Reported pod, most people who think they need therapy should go volunteer somewhere and get the fuck out of their own heads rather than sitting and ruminating on how Suzie made them mad in homeroom/at the water cooler.

 

[Stan]

I was confused at first as well because I thought she was referring to a laundromat, but of course that would make too much sense. Obviously Vicky would never go to a laundromat (even though they’re probably everywhere because it’s New York Fucking City.) It takes too much physical effort to haul all her dirty clothes, plus having to share a laundry machine with strangers? That’s icky!!! Think of her MCAS!!!
What she probably means is some niche lazy rich kid service where a person comes to your home, picks up all the dirty laundry for you, leaves to get it washed in their high end dry cleaning facility, then drops it off the next day. In which case $25 sounds pretty fair

It's called wash n' fold service in NYC. Basically you drop off a bag of dirty clothes at the cleaners', they get washed and folded, and the cleaner charges by the pound. For an additional fee they'll pick up the bag of dirty clothes from your apartment and deliver them back clean. It's bougie but somewhat common in NYC.

It's also amusing that our unhoused munchie friend is willing to beg to enjoy these "nice to haves" and can't just hump her laundry down to the local Hudson River access laundromat.

Seems to be more around $17-20, depending on the service. If she was an actual busy student swamped with classwork, it seems like a reasonable expenditure. But we know Vicky has oodles of time on her hands. Why, you could probably make a bunch of whiny posts about how ableist laundromats are, total missed opportunity.

Yeah I was about to say. Pretending you aren't able-bodied and being entitled to wash and fold service sounds on brand for Victor.

I have questions that make me sound insane: what do they take?

A lot of a lot of things, sedatives, analgesics (lots of opiates), cardiotoxic agents, and an antiemetic so they hold it down.
A few idiot witnesses (not the person prescribed the drugs, but was let into the sick room for the farewell) survived drinking a "sip" of these death cocktails, with the benefit of prompt advanced life support and dialysis. Another example.

Prioritizing school as usual:

If the class was so important I wonder why Victoria didn't pull out all the stops to get a spot. Request an interview during office hours, chat him up about his accomplishments and demonstrate your interest in the subject, buy the dude a fancy cake from a trendy bakery, but no, Vicky persues this supposedly important class in late/alternate registration.

In the business (of herding autistics) this is called executive functioning difficulties, and therapists and tutors can help remediate it, but I'm sure Victoria's parents sent her to that kind of lessons and just didn't really take it seriously.

I love how these people (Vicky very included) spout on and on about people's right to self-ID however they please - except, no, not Asperger's. You can't have that anymore.

You - you group of people who as a diagnostic criteria hate change - you can't use that word anymore because we decided it's not woke enough.

Asperger's stolen valor wasn't something I ever thought I'd see, but I guess there are a few new things under the sun.

She’s ”hyperlexic” now. Sure, Jan. But the notoriously ableist library chuds don’t space the shelves wide enough! Will the injustices never end?!
View attachment 6896617

A truly disabled hyperlexic should be intimately familiar with their libraries' electronic media collections, e-book lending, and advance reserve system. Obviously it's more fun to browse the stacks but libraries do a lot to make themselves accessible. Someone more disabled than Vicky can just post up to the circulation desk in her electric scooter and receive whatever titles she ordered, direct to accessible tie-dye JanSport backpack.

Come to think of it. Vicky didn't seem to know about reserve copies of current course textbooks in the library either a few weeks back. What's going on here? What kind of 'hyperlexic' is this bad at going to libraries?

The difference between people with firsthand experience of this stuff and super duper oppressed New Yorkers is honestly wild

Real New York Jews (not the oversensitive liberal pansies) are able to take a light joke about it once in a while if they know you're one their side of things. "I did nat-see that coming" is a pun they like.

Powerchairs have a manual mode for a reason, even if it's massive pain in the dick to push them. The batteries are finicky, as are the chairs themselves, so this may not be 100% on her.
But she probably didn't charge it.

Powerchairs also weigh a lot more cause of the batteries and highly articulated seat, so Vicky self-pushing it (plus her own mass) by the wheel rim is probably out of the question.

She's never not been rescued in her life, so she doesn't fear consequences when she sets up these crises. She also knew she had the option to get up and walk at any time, if things got sketchy.

If she were driving a car, she'd let it run out of gas now and then; it's a problem that's solved by calling other people and taking photos and throwing money at it (if not other people's money).

I remember when something similar happened to Hotwheels/Frederick Brennan way back in 2008 in NYC. His wallet with a bundle of savings in it was stolen at a subway kiosk, and then he got snowed in at a bus stop on the way home from reporting the theft to police and his (cranky, needing-replacement) chair shorted out.
Brennan was treated for hypothermia (comes on fast when you're the size of a five year old child in Queens on a wet winter night.)

Seems fundamentally different than stranding yourself while able-bodied because your spinny fun chair ran out of brrts.

It's hilarious to me that right after she bitches about people using "Asperger's" to signal they are the "smart" kind of Autist she turns around and does the exact same thing (or attempts to) by calling herself hyperlexic. Biiiiiitch.

I am getting a little mad at the stolen valor. Victoria doesn't seem to know the first thing about navigating a library which is suspicious. She's not appealing to X to help her with ~$100 of impulse purchases per month on the Kindle Store. It's like she's claiming developmental disorders cause she thinks they make her seem smart. Little Professor Syndrome, indeed...

@Diana Moon Glampers is right that the benefits of hyperlexia are limited and once your peers catch up you're kinda the same. I learned to read at like 2 years 10 months. The skill persisted a bit with learning foreign languages, memorizing Shakespeare and other things, and breaking jargon down by etmyology, which I'm still good at.

 

[Zemblan Physics]

I maintain that the concept of "mental illness" should have never been introduced into popular culture, nor should kids be discussing mental health,

Agree, mostly. (Disclaimer and PL: I’m a psychiatrist. My inbox is open for abuse, I deserve it.)

The DSM should be abandoned and never mentioned again. Domain based psychiatry has the potential to be semi-workable but will still risk categorizing basic human emotions and Shit Life Syndrome as psychiatric in nature.

I still believe there are maybe three or four conditions that are genuinely psychiatric: schizophrenia, bipolar 1, melancholic depression with catatonia and possibly severe OCD. (And by genuinely psychiatric I mean mostly stable across cultures and you won’t get well by establishing routines, eat and sleep well and having meaningful interpersonal relationships & challenging dysfunctional behaviors.)

None of the conditions above are seen in adolescence except in rare instances, but kids like Vicky are walking pharmacies at 13 and have no other framework to understand themselves than through a medicalized lens. If she wasn’t such an idiot I would pity her.

 

[CyberInu]

Iatrogenic is the term you're describing

Thank you, a bit rusty on my terminology lol. Not much use for it in prison environnements.

I don't think she has Inspector Gadget arms for that, anyway.

Previous poster meant in the sense of "get out and walk" pushing it, since we know Victoria can walk just fine.

Adding to the consensus: power chairs can be put into neutral but they're still much heavier to push than a standard wheelchair or transport chair. Not impossible or onerous for an able-bodied person, just annoying.
