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

I noticed the same thing. Thought it was just me. LMAO
Somehow whenever I clicked one it would try to change the active user. It opened in a new tab and the place where my icon is became the default image of a d. When I clicked it, it would say a problem was encountered.
really confusing, but I’d have to refresh this page each time I clicked one of the attachments. What the hell happened with that post?
 
My kingdom for a "Random Acronym Disorder Generator."

Spin the wheel and create an all-new, incredibly rare mental, physical, or genetic disorder complete with randomly selected diagnostic criteria, all of which qualify for disability payments, none of which cause actual pain or illness, all of which demand some form of visible medical device or mood-enhancing pharmaceutical that can be fucked with, none of which are sufficiently debilitating to prevent sharing every detail with online strangers and potential tugboats.

That's how an ideal healthcare system should work.
 
I know "systems" are pretty interesting, but I've spent the last few hours digging into the CRPS "community".

Chronic regional pain syndrome, or regional sympathic dystrophy, is when a munchie (usually) has a minor injury that turns into an unending saga of chronic, spreading pain that can only be cured with
  • Vicodin
  • morphine
  • Dilaudid
  • ketamine
  • sometimes nerve blocks

It's got no external signs- in other words, there's no way to verify it's real. It's just pain with no external sign. (Symptoms are self-reported, signs are externally verifiable.)

Some do claim their legs, arms and body parts get red or swollen. Genuine sufferers find real relief from physical therapy, cognitive therapy, and nerve blocks or spinal injections. Munchies never heal from it.

They like to claim it's more painful than anything that has ever happened, ever to anyone. (in the very rare authentic cases, it's usually the same pain as their original injury, and can spread to a region- if they break an ankle, their lower leg would be in pain. the same kind of pain as a broken ankle.)

I'm looking into this one right now so I don't want to tip it, but a lot of cows are roaming in this field, if anyone is interested.
 
And in today's episode of why the fuck would you post that on the internet we have HFM telling us all about how she just killed her cat.

A normal person would not be able to make themselves STOMP on their pet's head, jesus fucking christ.

And this girl not only does that, but then runs to instagram to document her own suffering. Fucking wow. Why would you ever tell the world you stomped on your cats head to kill it?

So she tried a single emergency vet, once, then gave up? There wasn't a single more humane option than stomping her cat's head?

Yeah I've been noticing this shit becoming increasingly common in the emergency department over the past two years or so.

Chronic illness rangers form up it's mighty morphine time

Fuck... I've had to mercy kill birds and mice (because of my stupid cats not finishing the job :(), but even then I've at least used a big rock to make sure the kill is instant and in these cases the heads are small enough that they're basically just mush from one blow. A cat, that she has supposedly cared for as well, would be so much harder to put down like that. I mean wtf was she thinking? And why on earth would she then share it on instagram??!! Fuck, this made me way more upset than expected..

In her stories she explains she had no other choice because she's "not MI6"
And that driving the cat and paying for the emergency euthanasia would be too stressful and traumatic for the cat.
And that she's going through a lot right now, people should have some human decency.

Girl, don't kill a cat and share the gruesome details to the entire internet.
The cat was a foster that was "ready for adoption" too.

My guess? That if she added in a bunch of horrible details people would see how very traumatized she was by this event and feel extra bad for her. Just saying the cat died would have gotten a few "sorry for your loss" and "I know how you feel, my pets are like family." Add in the detail that the cat died in a sudden unexpected way rather than old age or a long-term illness but don't explain it, people will probably assume it slipped out and was hit by a car and feel extra bad that it wasn't an expected death she had already partially processed before the accident. Add in that it was particularly gruesome death and she had to witness it, that's a whole other level of "oh my god, i can't imagine what you've gone through." And add in the ultimate "woe is me" detail that the cat didn't die from the initial accident, the emergency vet let her down, and she was forced to be an active participant in the cat's death because otherwise it would have suffered and that she did this at a great expense of her own mental wellbeing? Yeah guessing she thought that was a winning ticket in the asspat lottery and her comments would be full of people telling her what an awful thing she had just gone through and begging her not to blame herself/reassuring her that curb-stomping the cat was the right decision. And probably that anyone who did point out that leaving the door open was her fault or stomping on the cat was sociopath shit would get dog-piled by the asspat brigade.

Except this was 100% her fault and everyone saw through her excuses. Twice she tried one option then declared it hopeless and disregarded any alternative. First trying to get someone to install a cat net and then being told "they" (presumably the owner of the building?) don't do that because something something covid-19, gave up, didn't bother to see if there was an alternative before leaving the door open. Then she called a single emergency vet and then decided to stomp on the cat when that one vet didn't pick up. And that's if you believe she even did either of those things and wasn't just saying that in an attempt to make this look like it was a freak accident that couldn't have been prevented because everyone else let her down. Isn't there a whole (shitty) docu-series about how one should not fuck with felines because the internet will hunt you down?

I'm quite amazed that her crippling pain, fatigue, dizziness, and whatever else she claims fucked off when it was time to scramble over a railing onto a roof then rush down 17 stories to stomp repeatedly on a cat.

"I don't have the skills to break a neck" yet she studied animal medicine? What a crock of shite.
She could have done literally anything else, like driving to a fucking vet as any sane person would have done, yet she chooses to stamp the life out of her cat? Regardless of the pain and suffering an animal is in, I can guarantee that no one in their right mind would have ever even considered doing that.
I'm not even going to touch the "my therapist died" lie, it's just classic cluster B bullshit.
I am, however, questioning the legitimacy of this post. Do we reckon she actually killed her cat, or is she just embellishing a rather mundane story?

Either way, stamping on her neck would be too kind a fate for someone like her.
It's apparently not even her cat. It was a foster she had short term. I guess that would make it easier to actually stomp the cat to death if it did happen.

I'm more inclined to believe it happened. She's not really the kind who outright fabricates elaborate stories, from what I see. Much more the type to try to make some petty grievance sound like a grave injustice, like bitching that the cleaning lady doesn't come often enough and left some dishes in the sink and that's ABLEISM!!!!!!! She leaves in all the details that prove it's just a person with no real problems whining about nothing and doesn't add in a bunch of crazy bullshit about how the cleaning lady screamed at her and spit on her and she was crying for days and could have died. It's just "ugh this minor thing happened and now I am mildly inconvenienced."

She does seem to relish in shocking people, see also: nekkid picture on her friend's couch and bragging that it's been 18 days since she last washed her private parts and now her apartment smells like a fish market dumpster in July. But again, those aren't outright made up stories; she includes a photo of her grimy naked ass on the couch with her bangs oil-slicked to her forehead.

If anything i'd believe she made up the part about trying to cat-proof the balcony or that the door was only open a small crack or that as soon as she saw the bird she got up to check on the cat. Yanno, the parts she's using to try to make it Not Her Fault.
 
Was she trying to avoid a costly vet visit? Would she have been required to pay for treatment if the cat could have been saved?

You see people in movies and TV shows doing a mercy kill and 9 times out of 10, they smother the victim rather than violently stomp their head.
Even though it may have taken longer to suffocate the cat, she wouldn't have cat brains on her shoes. And what shoes do you wear to accomplish something like this?
 
It's apparently not even her cat. It was a foster she had short term. I guess that would make it easier to actually stomp the cat to death if it did happen.

It's still absolutely disgusting behaviour that proves she shouldn't own animals, even if it's a temporary situation. Stomping on a cat's head is not an act of mercy. The fact she even thought it was acceptable proves how much of a terrible human being she is. And then having the gall to make it about how she's suffering? Fucking christ.
