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

[The1ThatStartsWithD]

The tards over at IF and IFA are trying to claim it's perfectly normal to have over a dozen bouts of sepsis in a year because their brother in law had sepsis four times this year and they had it nine times and also my research is invalid because I use "the r-word."

I am so glad KF is not a hugbox.

Well, can't help you on the r thing, you are guilty there. You are supposed to say TARDS. Using the full "r-word" is so last season.

IFA is getting hugboxy now? Gross!

So, after some excessive Facebook searching into the JanJan shitstorm I have found.

A. A picture of Judd and his family from Memorial Day, he looks happier than he did on any of her videos, but of course, pictures don’t mean shit.

B. That Jaquies mother has deleted both Janice and Paul off her Facebook, so has Judd, and so has Jaq’s father.

C. Janiece has gone from bawling her eyes out on YouTube - to posting about going on a Disney & taco day (but remember - she’s got super serious MALS & can’t eat)

D. Jaq’s mother posted saying “30 days without my angel” & Janiece didn’t like, or conment on the post at all. She did however like the Memorial Day picture that was posted, by Judd’s father.

Speculation: Jaquies mother has put her foot down & told her to fuck off.

Dayum son! 10/10 sleuthing. This info brings me inexplicable joy. I am sad that Jancan't's fuckery has apparently come between Judd and Paul, who were friends first. The girls came second and apparently hated each other initially. I concur with your conclusion that some shit must have gone down and Judd told Paul to GTFO with his narc bitch of a wife.

Yes, that's her. She only posts to her insta-stories now and deleted all her history so she's harder to trace. She off-and-on claims an eating disorder, sometimes restrictive and sometimes binge-purge. Claims POTS and dumping syndrome. Mostly just talks very vaguely about her health and tries to bait people into asking her questions. I only check in once in a while because she posts a lot about high school and it just makes me sad.

She really recently changed her insta name to chronically_vlogging but she hasn't actually started vlogging. Her YouTube is just her high school choir performances.

Hold up! That chronically_vlogging name is ringing a bell. Wasn't there an account on YouTube, by two friends, one of whom had a real eye condition or something, and nothing was wrong with the other one, and they made videos? This would be LC days timewise, so did she co-opt the channel or is this the 2.0 version? I could be talking out of my asshole though, so I am sorry in advance if I've provided nothing more than gibberish on this one.

IFAftermath is even worse. They’re clutching their pearls that IF still refer to kittenbread as “she” when she uses “they”.

Jesus Christ kill yourselves.

You weren't kidding. Jesus fuck.

She deleted it from her IG, but it's here to stay.

Epic eyeroll dude!

Spoiler: more old timey photos with wheelchairs n' stuff.

I know nothing about these people. They're mostly from a private collection sourced from flea markets and whatnot, most are tintypes so based on the medium and clothing, probably 1860s-1900.

early wheelchairs are really cool

Here's one that was homemade out of a rocking chair and modified wagon wheels. There were commercially made ones as well but this is just so cool.

1901, handsome fella with a sweet prosthetic.

Takeaway point: disabled people were always part of the landscape, especially after the Civil War when people were getting their limbs amputated left and right. People saw their mobility aids both as a sign of bravely struggling through something and as an extension of their bodies so when they had their photos made, they often included them. It's kind of a neat little piece of material culture you don't really think of.

Not the same era obviously, these are the kids who posed for the March of Dimes posters during the polio epidemic, but I love this photo a lot because it's like a flashing neon sign that says "VACCINATE YOUR GODDAMNED KIDS."

And this one is just funny. 1955 at a children's hospital.

Bonus sperg: there's a lot of evidence that the first corsets were actually early back braces for things like scoliosis, and even into the late Victorian there were corsets that functioned solely as orthopedics or posture correctors and not shapewear

(1600s)

They also made maternity corsets that functioned basically as bras before bras were invented.

And nursing corsets.

Fascinating. You are my most favoritest Kiwi, KFS.

These are really cool, I wish more photos like the children with polio one were more frequently shared, it's such an awful disease and could have been eradicated with vaccines.

This is a good point and makes me kinda want to start spamming antivaxxers with "awareness" pics of what pre-vaccine era illnesses used to do, because I am quite convinced they have no idea. But who am I kidding? It's not even about the vax issue, just that sweet, sweet victim attention. They give zero fucks about reality.

Oh you sweet Summer child.

Meet Sapphire Crimson Claw, a useless unemployed fake-disabled woman with a masters in social work who makes up hundreds of genders and sexualities for herself, fetishizes transgender people, thinks she fucks the ghosts of serial killers and can summon demons, and sings while she poops naked in public.

I am sufficiently traumatized for life, thanks for that. I mean this is almost worse than Chris-chan's' taint-gina. lel

That's her, the two dumpy-looking fat girls who made boring vlogs about nothing, but you're messing up the details a bit. Kaylene the friend who always had a popeye squint had Gorlin Syndrome aka Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma, which is a condition that predisposed her to getting skin cancer over and over again and that's what fucked up her face. Katrina has aniridia, born without the irises of her eyes, and her droopy stoned-as-fuck look was an artifact of her keeping her eyes partly shut to filter out some light since she basically had two GIANT PUPILS in her eyes. They actually had those two conditions as far as I can tell. Kaylene went on to like, graduate high school and do other shit and I lost track of her. Kat malingered her way out of class so much she failed senior year twice, maybe three times, and is now finishing and old enough to drink. How embarrassing. She claims to be disabled by fibromyalgia, some kind of neuropathy, an eating disorder, sometimes gastroparesis and sometimes its polar opposite dumping syndrome, POTS, and is always gunning for more.

She was always in control of the channel. Recently she was d/b/a Katrina.Raschi on instagram but one day I woke up and she had changed her name on insta to chronically_vlogging but not started vlogging yet.

How do I introduce a new person for discussion? Her instagram is @beyond.bendy - she’s loosely connected to ALF through other IG munchies.

She claims to have over 21 different diagnoses and has gone from living a regular life to using a power chair, braces etc in 3 short years.

She’s in a relationship with another IG munchie I distantly know @amelioratingmylife who has been increasingly accused of factitious disorder, though openly claiming to have FND.

Both of them are a munchie goldmine, once I figure out how to properly catalogue it all I will upload receipts.

Here's her insta, looks like all of the other girls in this thread. I was trying to find out what the hell was going on with her stomach skin because it looks like an acid burn.

Hypersensitivity and thinned from repeatedly cut open. I've seen a much milder version of this caused by weekly subcut injections but obviously adding repeated infections and scar tissue has left the skin very thin.

Swing and a miss. Let's try this again: Don't talk about your health problems. At all. We don't care.

Also WTF mate, did the 30 warnings not to use a handle you've used elsewhere not sink in? I mean I appreciate you handing me your dox on a silver platter but jiminy cricket.

Newbies: just for the record we don't dox members unless they are deemed halal. So don't go spilling this idiot's extensive internet history into the thread yet.

I was trying to find out what the hell was going on with her stomach skin because it looks like an acid burn.

She says she’s been injecting blood thinners. On top of the skin thinning from incisions it looks like she’s been rubbing the injection sites like a true munchie (patients are told to rotate the site around stomach and thighs and to not rub it after. If you rub it you get these little petechiae and if you do it 200x and rub it, this happens.) it shouldn’t happen - the needles are teeny tiny and if you don’t rub, you generally get nothing or a tiny pinpoint bruise.

I’m currently down an internet instagram hole sitting on my hands to not point out that someone’s brain scan doesn’t in fact show they have a chiari malformation....

Still can’t figure out how to only quote portions of posts. To be clear referring to your rabbit hole/hand sitting re Chiari:

Oh fuck, those are so easy to invalidate but also so very addicting. Esp when they are dumb enough to hand over clear imaging on a silver platter. Face palm. But hey- pay cash to a few select neurosurgeons and they will happily say you have Chiari. Will only cost $100k and recovery from a god damn BRAIN SURGERY. Idiots.

 

[Kate Farms Shill]

Two ways to quote just part. Hit “reply” and then erase the parts you don’t want to quote, or highlight the part you want to quote, click “quote”, scroll down to text box, and hit “insert quotes”.

Edit: whoops first part of that was an artifact of crappy WiFi.

 

[Ms.bojangles]

I was implying that like other girlos in this thread she's been starving herself to get that precious GP dx. Thank you for fleshing that out a bit because I don't think I made it too clear.

I figured that's where you were going with it. Its a sore spot for me that these girls try to get pity from Hypokalemia even though it's common in patients who don't eat or starve themselves... It's becoming a red flag to me when these girls boast about it as it becomes clear what they are doing. I also don't think they realize how common of a thing it actually is... 90% of the time it's asymptomatic and they are told to fix their diet (aka stop not eating or eat something other than cookies all day)

As someone with autism & multiple chronic illnesses i’d like To say that this person’s comments and thread posts have made me develop stage 10 ADD & terminal brain cancer.

I am writing this comment from my induced coma where I am only dreaming about leaking their information about their “super serious lung problems” from my excessive google searching.

Oops, did that just happen? Sorry, my autism is playing up & I can’t control what i’m saying or doing. Sorry not sorry

Why do so many people seem to chase that one? I understand average scared-of-vague-symptoms people who get confused about it and end up sounding dramatic, but. Munchies seem to just WANT this one. Do they honestly just want an excuse to get a complication-prone brain surgery? For some reason holes in your skull seem like a completely different level than stomach tubes and ports.

From my knowledge of lurking within the EDS community, people chase Chiari because it verifies their super serious neck instability & gives them an excuse to wear a neck brace to stop them internally decapitating theirselves, when the reality is if they had a Chiari that bad they’d be in a hospital & unable to stay sat up long enough to type their post - it would have been caught much earlier & would have been dealt with.

But hey, any excuse to be super OTT, right?

It's the difference in these two photos that's confusing me. The white skin looks raised like hives in the second link, the first link looks like what you've described. I reckon this is the site of at least one of her sepsis inspections because she references infection in the text relating to the second photo. I have no doubt she was rubbing the site and most likely rubbing it with dirty hands. (Explains sepsis 8 times) Where I've seen this before is the result of clothing rubbing on the injection site and nowhere near as bad so I am almost certain this is intentional.

I've spent all evening trying to find an explanation for the two arm casts but it looks like it will remain a mystery. Her aunt seems quite the interesting character though.
