This is Nicola Dawn Grant, now known as Nina Jean Grant
In June 2010, she walked a marathon!
July 2010, vague tweet about her shoulder popping out
positive teddy bear sign
And then grammed this minor hurty finger injury multiple times

Bad mood due to cystitis and deadlines.
Asthma chic
normal self harm scarring. Keep this in mind when she later complains about her terrible EDS-related skin issues

pill porn
Tweeting about asthma
In September 2011, Nicola Dawn officially became Nina Jean and still related this name change to her health
Anemic.
Casual claim of what she thinks is OCD
She's already gotten "the drug lecture" from a mean doctor
Live-tweeting her hospital stay
Rationing benzos. Gee, I wonder why that mean doctor gave her the drug lecture.
She really loves pills
First mention of ADD
Hip keeps rolling out of the socket. Sure.
Can't get a copy of her hip X-ray (probably because it was never dislocated and the x-ray never happened)
Yet despite her constantly dislocating hip, Nina can both climb a mountain and balance on jagged rocks
Dislocations
Using my inhaler, better take a selfie
And here we have one of several times where Nina mentions what is actually wrong with her: borderline personality disorder, which she has been fighting valiantly to get expunged from her medical records. This admission of the obvious comes while she is actively one-upping someone with hemophilia by lying about her joints dislocating.
Those darn hips of hers

Showin off those psych meds: Venlaflaxine (Effexor, SNRI antidepressant), Medikinet (ADHD drug), and Diazepam (Valium)
These ankle supports were not supplied by NHS which would have provided them if she actually needed them

Gramming the inhaler again
First time mentioning EDS
Referring to herself as a spoonie now
Begins a blog with this long post about drugs
Belly dancing thwarted by that darn hip of hers

Alright so far we have a BPD diagnosis she is trying to hide, established pattern of drug-seeking already recognized by physicians, she's a dancer, and now a history of eating disorder. Just throwing up those red flags left and right. Also claiming PTSD and "badly medicated bipolar" but not the borderline she doesn't want. Or the OCD and ADHD she mentioned before

meanwhile her insta is being taken over by pill porn
despite this, she can still type
Now claiming frequent dislocations in April 2013
Whoops, forgot the ADHD, OCD, and PTSD. Hypermobility syndrome but not EDS.

In this blog she says she is not autistic. She will change her mind on this many, many times
Shopping for a folding cane
and rollerskates in the same tweet-thread.
June 2013, codeine as sleep aid
First time mentioning a wheelchair.
These are also not supplied by NHS (and useless)
Needed a wheelchair 11 days ago but whatever
SHOULDER DISLOCATION
First mention of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Surely her fatigue has nothing to do with benzos, opiates, alcohol, and staying up all night dancing.
People starting to call her on her shit over on Ask.fm (August 2013)

More proof she has never experienced a dislocated hip as "strategically placed pillows" will not prevent them and sitting/walking would not be possible with a dislocated hip



Nina is responding to those horrible ABLEISTS who think she doesn't need a wheelchair if she can dance and roller skate
First mention of osteoarthritis
Abusive childhood back story, important for later context
And another huge red flag: her sister was born with multiple birth defects and spent her short life in hospitals, then died from an open heart surgery, all while Nina was very young. You pretty much cannot write a munchausen back story more sterotypical than Nina's.
Funny, in July she said she did have CFS
In November 2013, she repeatedly tweets about her alopecia, until her hairstylist debunks her self-diagnosis by telling her she does not have alopecia.



so epic she tweeted it.
Now she has CFS again
Showing off those OTC painkillers, codeine mixed with NSAIDs so that attempting to get high off of them will be a real bad idea
Damaged by her mother, more context
Tweeting PTSD flashbacks/panic attacks
Ballet. NGL there were so many times compiling this that we thought she had to be trolling but she is for real
first mention of seizures in Jan 2014
Also in January 2014, Nina goes out dancing for hours and "probably" gave ballet a miss the next day; #abledpeoplesay stop wasting NHS money with your fake disabilities



Pill porn
~mystery nina~ would like a mass on her kidney, please
Gunky lungs
Poor dear
By this point she's been claiming EDS for over a year but her symptoms are of an "unknown origin" suggesting she hasn't been diagnosed
Needs a cane and a wheelchair but jumping like a frog at ballet is fine
Fainting from low blood pressure and still hasn't figured out what a dislocation is.
Walking is hard but riding a bike is just fine
Driver's license but claims she has seizures.
Does not look like an EDS bruise, vague MRI mention
cyclothemia
lol no comment
"also because I want codeine"
Didn't she just complain about low blood pressure? Benzos and opiates are fine but medication for her high blood pressure is just too much.
Still doing ballet

PTSD and OCD are back. ADHD and BPD are gone.
pill art
A year ago, she claimed her PTSD stemmed from her abusive relationship with her father. Now it stems from going to school in Canada when she lived with her mom
CFS, seizures, valium

Chronic degenerative condition doesn't get her asspats like a broken wrist would. (most adults don't really get asspats for breaking a bone, Nina; they get roasted by everyone who asks them what dumb shenanigans they got up to that led to a broken bone.)
Still taking dance, but only once a week so it's fine

Seizures again
First mention of POTS, but somersaults are fine
Now claiming her hip has been dislocating since she was 14, whining about pain from her terrible joints.

Still claiming CFS and now it's keeping her from her precious ballet classes

No reason given for why she needs glucose test strips
Sure
Blood pressure that could kill her!! (But she won't take meds for it)
still hasn't figured out that she's making it obvious her joints do not sublux or dislocate
A few weeks ago she said she had a current Driver's license but now she has not gone longer than a month without seizures for years
#EDS on March 17
Two days later, gives away that she's not actually diagnosed with EDS, despite talking about it since 2012 as if she had
Here, Nina shows the very mild hypermobility of one of her elbows, incredibly common in young women. From this evidence she has diagnosed herself with a major systemic connective tissue disorder.
9/10 pain and tweeting. Sure loves her drugs.

"OH GOD I WANT THE PAINKILLERS." Again admitting she's never been dx'd with EDS. She "knows" she has it but needs the doctor to agree so she can get better drugs.

The day after her drug rants (and remember she admit she uses codeine to help her sleep), she's back on the CFS line
Better tell them about the seizures "just in case"
bragging about the many psych meds she's been given.
dermatillomania first mentioned
so many problems with her wonky EDS joints

THE SAME DAY she signs up for more ballet classes. Standard munchie "so much pain but it's worth it" logic. Same logic the Disney-tards use to justify why they can go there 20 times a month but can't do anything productive
Bragging about abusing OTC painkillers. Note to my fellow murrikans, while these do have codeine in them they're sold OTC because they are combined with an NSAID or tylenol to prevent people from taking them to get high (see her friend here in the comments teaching her how to extract the codeine so she can take more without fucking her liver and kidneys or needing to get her stomach pumped).
Wouldn't you know she has an asthma attack she blames on the ibuprofen
the same day and has to go to the ER (after tweeting about it, of course). "Good impetus to pester my new GP for codeine phosphate straight away."


forgot to take off the electrodes (second time she's made this ridiculous claim, and previously claimed she was allergic to the adhesive)
10/10 pain and tweeting about begging doctors for better drugs

Doc gives her cocodomol which has tylenol in it to prevent her from taking it by the handful. So she illegally procures codeine without tylenol from "a friend"


Still getting dunked on over at ask.fm
I'm starting to think Nicola might have a slight substance abuse problem




dislocates very easily due to the EDS she diagnosed herself with.

crippling arthritis, "full-time cripple," and POTS (still doing ballet)

now claiming scoliosis and patella-femoral syndrome (runner's knee)

hint hint
Scroll up to see Nina's scars and how they do not look like EDS cigarette-paper scarring
Nina's mother points out if she needed a cane, NHS would have provided one; Nina's response is she paid out of pocket because she wanted a pink one.
"seizure abs"
things you can do: ride a bike, dance, go rollerskating, somersaults

wasn't he abusive? something about PTSD flashbacks?
high as hell and getting ready for a job interview
tweeting with 8/10 pain for awareness
seizures, hanging out with her dealer

maybe he thinks you have it because you keep telling people you do?
rheum says she doesn't have EDS so she doctor shops (and doesn't understand inheritance)
codeine changed her life, now having withdrawals, more seizures, more valium



crowdsourcing meds on twitter
keep this in mind when she starts claiming she's super poor
more seizures, 8/10 pain and tweeting


thinks EDS and hypermobility are the same, still repeating her self-diagnosed EDS makes her joints just fall out of place.



needs the codeine, withdrawl fucking her guts up. Remember she's been taking her script plus additional codeine from her "friend" (and still ran out early). Scores more. in the middle of all this, ballet happens.







so poor

abusing benzos for her "seizures"
60 cocodomol + 20 codeine from her dealer will last 10 days
seizures
powerful wonky EDS legs
seizures from . . .POTS
Nina knows what she wants but mean doctors aren't cooperating
Self-diagnosing is valid!
shower seats exist
Afraid she'll get denied disability benefits just because she's undiagnosed and can't prove her disability is real; wants the money so she can travel

fuck the pain away

"my joints made me fat"
funny how she has "seizures" every time she visits her
dealer "pain buddy"

couldn't be the fact that you're high all the time
her hips dislocate very easily tho
not autistic, ADD and "funsies"
getting diagnosed by someone other than Dr. Nina might help
another go at begging for codeine
so, no?
seizures
fails to mention it's not her prescription. Also has never
seen the GP she is begging for opiates


I think you're too late to worry about that
very poor, on vacation in Mallorca and popping off to a week-long festival


fucking her dealer?
Boyfriend leaves the country to get away from her lol
"when" she has hip replacements
lusting after wheelchairs and mobility scooters
So she's never brought up the "seizures" with a doctor?
how dare they suggest physical therapy instead of loading you up with drugs and giving you a scootypuff
constipation from constant codeine threatening to interrupt her plans
one-upping a severely epileptic, autistic, and intellectually disabled teenager who
drowned in the bath during a seizure
I'm sure you wanted to know more about her bowel movements
we shouldn't have to prove we're sick to doctors! They should just diagnose and prescribe whatever we tell them!
showing off how high she is again
daddy pays for what she can't
Goes to a festival but don't forget she's super sick!

begs GP for better drugs, denied again
six hour pub crawl would make anyone tired.
Baby's first e-begging
"temporary bliss" as her tolerance grows and her doctor threatens to switch her from codeine to pregabalin

crowdfunded some braces she would have gotten free from NHS if she needed them
grossly unremarkable shoulders
I can't unsee this so neither can you
mean doctor won't give stronger opiates (and there were more than 2 EDS specialists at the time).
arthritis in her hips and medical PTSD
did they keep telling you to rest or to exercise?
Dr. Twitter
crying poverty, trying to scam disability benefits

her codeine problems are slowly morphing into gastroparesis
lives in squalor, gettin turned on by her chest pain


these three were all posted within the span of 12 minutes, lol


codeine and gin
crying poverty again
She faced no anti-semitism as a child because she converted to judaisim as an adult. No shit.
strategically angled to prove she rented the wheelchair
still wants better drugs
"therapy is the worst"
lusting after new crutches
ew
'officially a bendy' but doesn't say if she's diagnosed EDS or benign hypermobility (hint: she slips up soon)
her diagnosis backfires when they suggest CBT instead of stronger drugs

abusive dad fucking rocks?
can't talk, seizure'd
cut off from her painkillers and denied travel pass
so poor, dissociating


"small dislocations" but constantly complaining her hip fully dislocates and takes days to reset
"i don't do non-prescription shit" you take other people's scripts
see above for proof of normal bruising
another random mention of blood sugar
very poor, dad is wonderful
watch Nina panic as her drugs are taken away



GI woes
Nina's drug problems solved (temporarily)

lol @ her doctor sighing when she walks in


shoulders dislocate?
still angry her drugs are threatened
gonna guess her seizures look real fake, yes

random woes

painkiller woes


wasting money on those stickman cards
now she has a crutch
she was the textbook BPD case
benign hypermobility can be fatal
dangerously close to self-aware

tired from being pushed in a wheelchair
God save my soul, we're only in August of 2014.
