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

[Munchie_Minder]

I remember seeing that before I got into following all the EDS munchies online. I remember thinking WTF when she claimed that chiropractor cured her. Now that I see that perfectly healthy people claiming EDS are a dime a dozen on Instagram, it makes so much sense.

Exactly. So EDS can be weird. People can be fine and pretty active and then one injury from doing nothing in particular can create a disaster of deconditioning and downward spiral of other injuries that make going to PT difficult. A lot of EDS patients complain about the exercise bit because they may have tried so many times and got new injuries OR they’ve been to a PT who ends up doing further damage, which also happens a lot in those patients.

But, sometimes someone CAN break that deconditioning cycle and be better for a bit until the next injury that causes a need for major surgery.

HOWEVER, that particular woman left out the part that she moved to Colorado, is literally consuming her weight in edibles and vape every day and is still young enough that her injuries likely weren’t that severe. BUT, since coming into the munchie world, I’m starting to question whether she actually has EDS.

Edit: would be interesting to do a little more background research in her.

You know what I noticed about this annoying flap of scrotal skin that fancies itself le hilarious troll?

It only comes out when mods at IF need a diversion.

Pretty sure its just a munchie trying to show how awful KF is. The troll is so juvenile it reminds me of how munchies wish KF was, instead of you know pointing out all their lies and frauds.

It's similar to how transtrender perverts try to claim KF is just a transphobic hate machine trying to murder trans-people. When we are just mocking the absurd and terrible behavior of a tiny subset of awful troons who publicly parade their odious behavior everywhere for max attention and e-begging.

Is there anyone who can speak to permanent physical problems caused by anorexia/other eating disorders and how it maps to the described physical symptoms of munchies?

Gastroparesis is a well-known complication of EDs. It usually resolves itself once anorexics begin to actually eat again. Sometimes it doesn't, though. Laxative abuse can lead to some horrifying shit (no pun intended) where your colon basically gives up on motility because your body expects a steady stream of laxatives fed to it. This can result in obstructions when your colon just gives up the ghost and refuses to move anything down to your rectum.

The actual permanent problems from EDs don't seem to be munchie territory, because they fixate on GP and seem to get caught before they suffer from organ failure.

Fuck, well now what am I going to do with all these male pronouns i was going to use to LITERALLY MURDER TRANS WOMEN?

 

[suck my pickle]

I realized that after I posted it so I took down the post, oops.

has anyone actually looked into this sydney girl though? she is now a mod at the spin off sub r/munchausensbyinternet and is imo teetering on munchie behaviour herself on her instagram and seemingly (like others) using modding as a way to ensure that she's not discussed certain places of the www.

ETA - apparently janjan's new bff is another sooper speshul spoonie & might be worth looking in to.

She also knows pretty much all of the topics over on IF. Amanda/Ren just FaceTimed with her (#instafriends!), there was the drama with her and Anelise, and I think was even at Jaq's funeral? Super suspicious.

I wish it was possible to make a separate thread that deals with Janice specifically or issues that arose following Jaq's death and various controversies. (Not sure of the best title for that or any of the logistics but I think it would be helpful. I joined this site based on a google search and came back based on a youtube comment saying the video was archived on kiwi farms.) I feel like there are so many oddities with the whole situation that it deserves its own thread. Maybe it is just all the oddities with Jan that have been exposed. She seems to have a lot of difficulties with social interaction and seems to not be able to read verbal cues. I have heard of something akin to that being a side effect of gabapentin and pregabalin. I have a gut feeling she is on Lyrica and possibly misusing it. it is not controlled so it is easy to claim you lost it etc. apparently they have fantastic insurance and Paul costs 50 thousand a month.

It is not fresh in my memory but I noticed how Jan mentioned and complimented the flowers and then threw in a little nudge to donate. I don't remember the wording but was that about the condolence Amazon wish list ? or was it ambiguous.


Does anyone have insight into why both videos were taken down? Honestly, I would have thought both channels would have loved the youtube revenue.

this is so nit picky but it seems weird that she makes no mention of the girl wearing the identical dress to her. is that Judd's sis ?

I'm not sure why she took the videos down. She could have just kept deleting negative comments till her deathbed. Maybe she was worried it was going to impact her Patreons and post-dead-Jaquie "donations."

 

[seizure-san]

We've discussed girls with eating disorders being munchies on here before, but I thought it was solely because of their need for attention. But I saw an interesting post on r/TrueChronicIllness by someone who says she could've been a munchie, and:


Is there anyone who can speak to permanent physical problems caused by anorexia/other eating disorders and how it maps to the described physical symptoms of munchies?

Eating disorders can wreck your shit in ways that you (the disordered) really wouldn't even expect...really trying not to be powerlevel-ly but yeah, 1)a lot of these mysterious ~chronic rare diagnoses~ they get could easily be explained by some good ol ana/mia time in their past, buuuuttt 2)it can unfortunately take a lot of time and luck for somebody to connect the dots between "starving and puking your guts up" to such seemingly random things as IBS, peripheral neuropathy, and freaking seizures. So yeah all that weird leftover ED shit would be the perfect opportunity to over-dramatize, with maybe even some occasional real incidents peppered in here and there for "legitimacy".

Gastroparesis, POTS, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, any other digestion or vague energy -related conditions could ABSOLUTELY be explained by an ED history in my opinion.

Health Consequences

Eating disorders are serious, potentially life-threatening conditions that affect a person’s emotional and physical health. They are not just a “fad” or a “phase.” People do not just “catch” an eating disorder for a period of time. They are real, complex, and devastating conditions that can have...

^some examples of effects of long term effects. Also hope this all makes sense, I chopped out some PL stuff. I know too much about this subject, haha.

Tbh jan was reg discussed in jaqs thread and the issues arising from jaqs thread was discussed there until idiots ruined it and it had to be locked. I don’t think jan deserves her own thread since she’s basically just trying to take over jaqs former life. Giving that would give her what she wants.

And aside from this funeral fiasco and the grief sympathy train she’s actually really boring. Although of course hopefully she stays crazy as I’m invested now.

I think it could burn a little brighter. I mean now that they got rid of kittenbread, it's not like their mods are munchies or something.

So, party_wurmple, just out of curiosity, how many times have you had sepsis so far?
View attachment 775539View attachment 775541
Jeepers Christmas, that seems like a lot! Twelve? Four times in just the last six months? Or 12 total but only eight were bordering on septic shock but only two of those times were close to getting bad? I'm so confused. Then again, I wouldn't really know much about it because, you know, I've never had it. Kind of avoid installing new gateways for infection into my body. You must be really sick, definitely sicker than any of your "subjects" with their EDS/GP/MCAS/POTS combo. What is it that you have again?

Oh gosh oh geez this is so awkward. Well I mean, I guess I don't have much more to add. Any sage advice for us?

View attachment 775641

So did they pull your port after your twelfth bout of sepsis? Jw.

Sorry this is so short, can't really devote my whole attention to figuring out who you are yet, conference season and whatnot. But like I always say, internet is forever and I already saved all your post history for future scrutiny. Where was that school shooting you were involved in? Arizona, right? Don't worry, there can't be too many ASL interpreters with severe disabling conditions held hostage in a tard classroom by an armed madman. Oh and by the way.

lol get fucked.

Lol all the comments telling reddit about this has now been deleting amongst many others. Tbh that was the longest I’ve seen comments attacking the mods stay up. But anyway kfs you are amazing yet again.

 

[c6h1206]

I did not understand much of what Cousin Daniel said. In particular, the part about she did something when he first met her and she did it again the last time he saw her? did he say she sang? Honestly wondering.

 

[swiggety_swoogitty]

Looks like her but no. Erika's significantly older than Autie and Autie lives in the UK.

Blast from the past! I would love an Erika update from anyone who can find one.

 

[c6h1206]

So how did referencing Jaq having a smug, arrogant smile even make it past the 1st draft? Does this girl not know how to use a thesaurus? does she not know that arrogant has an extremely negative connotation?

Jaq was not an influencer she potentially had some kind of monetary deal with Kate Farms, I doubt she got money from Hidden Valley. Anyone know of anyone who paid her to promote ? She was not wholesome enough. Mary Frey gets a few deals with companies e.g. Hello Fresh but illness is not an image a lot of companies want to align with.

I feel like Jan has some kind of actual intellectual impairment. She talked about the chronic ear infections as a child I seriously question if she genuinely has some very real problem. Like a tumor pressing on the impulse control section of her brain ? No way that Savannah or Sydney girl want anything to do with her after that. I am surprised Jaq's mom and Judd even agreed to see her on mother's day.

I cannot believe I'm not banned from IF.


Jan is not anywhere near interesting enough to have her own thread. She chimps out or pulls a shitty move like monetizing her friend's funeral once in a while but she has no follow-through. Most of her content is her laying in bed complaining about the various parts of her body that hurt.

ETA - apparently janjan's new bff is another sooper speshul spoonie & might be worth looking in to.

Any more info? All I know about her is her first name lol

 

[Broken Pussy]

If anyone would like to make a thread for a particular exceptional individual, you can do so via the Proving Grounds and then specify that you’d like it to go in the Beauty Parlour subforum.

If you want to talk about the Munchie reddit, it’s whatever. There’s not really a more appropriate place to do so, I suppose.

I realize that closing the other thread is what has caused the uptick in the activity on this one, so there isn’t a lot to be done about the obsessives who migrate over here.

However, if someone pops up with lame trolling attempts, please don’t engage in an argument about it here. Report it, ASAP, and we’ll take care of it.

People want to read about the subject of the thread. Wading through people reacting to trolls makes the thread less fun.

I just checked and I am banned lol. The most egregious thing I probably said was “All Hail KateFarmsShill” in the thread exposing the mods. Party Wurmple is getting nervous, it seems

I've been wondering if the family told her to take it down. There's no way Jan would've given up that sweet ad revenue and attention on her own, and she was already deleting negative comments. I wonder if the family didn't realize she recorded the entire fucking funeral and weren't aware she was going to post it, then lost their shit when she did.

Sweet Jesus, I hope so. That would mean at least one person in that shitshow has some common sense.

Are they worried about privacy breaches or something? They are pretty strict on reacting non munchies from photos. If the photo is already public there are no privacy implications to posting it and if it was screen shorter from somewhere like Facebook it's actually Facebook's property and not the individual who posted it. That's part of what you agree to when you sign up to those kinds of sites. It's really up to the people in the picture at the time to say they don't want to be in the picture or have it posted online.
