Yeah, they'll all just go "omg, so sad, she was such a warrior, clearly they didn't help her like they should have, see hEDS kills, doctors suck, also please give me drugs and procedures doctors." Also PTP is interesting if you want a case study of Borderline personality dx, but the munch aspect is just props. The tube is physically real, but from what I can tell 100% not rx by her doc.
when i first started doing this i really thought I could show people the dangers in chronic illness social media circlejerks. I thought for the most part these were people who had real diseases but were being negatively influenced by people like Jaquie and ALF to give up on life, go for the most invasive treatments, and feel like they can no longer live their lives because they got a diagnosis. Therefore I thought if I could show these girls were exaggerating at best and outright lying at worst, that their behavior was totally inconsistent from one day to the next, and that this one-upping behavior was incredibly dangerous when the goalposts were major surgeries and bouts of sepsis, they might take a look in the mirror and realize how self-defeating they were being. Then I realized these girls know they're not sick, they know they're doing this on purpose, they're not being manipulated into anything, and they don't care if one of their own dies other than as an opportunity to reap asspats and "sorry 4 ur loss" comments.
lOnG cOvId. Jesus fuck. Why do I get the feeling that we are condemned to never hearing the end of this from every munchie near and far. I'm already cringing in advance.
You're right about that, other munchies will use this to their end and keep on. It's just like the pro-ED crowd. It doesn't scare them away, it provides an opportunity for them to appropriate someone else's trauma to make it all about themselves, aspiring to be such a sacred holy CI martyr, worshiping and one-upping each other into competitive oblivion. RIP Amy.
I'd say morgellon's fits in here (and also I want to see this because I love Morgellons crazies and thought they had gone extinct)
Yes, I've documented Megan and Nala. Megan has BPD but also claims autism now because BPD is not a reason to get a service dog, and has started to move on to physical diseases now that she lives with two zebra EDS munchies. She spends her entire life at disney with her two dogs (because why have just one?) Nala and a new poodle puppy named Zazu, her room is full of stuffed toys and she watches Disney movies on a constant loop. She chimps out constantly and believes she can dictate how every other person in the world interacts with her.
Yup. Megan is the munch in the video. I have no idea how to link it but it's just a fluff piece from Rocky Kanaka. Nothing we don't already know.
Long covid is going to be the new chronic lyme.
It already is, if my facebook feed is anything to go by. Complete with people also diagnosing their kids with long haul covid -- no positive covid test at any time required.
long covid is the cherry on top of the COVID hysteria shit sundae.
She seems to attract the same type of people as r/fakedisordercringe, who have to talk about their diagnosis every 2 seconds to prove that they’re the best and most legit autistic/cluster b/did bitch. If it weren’t for the fake nose hose I’d say they have zero reason to be in munchsnark at all. If MS kept their posts on her limited to the feeding tube and other physical health issues I wouldn’t be bothered because she’d hardly ever be posted.
I came across this person on dog TikTok! I ended up watching a lot of her toks because Nala is so cute in her Mickey ears and sunglasses. She seems like a very good girl. I didn't think much about the owner, but there was a series where she was in an argument with a family that felt like their gremlin should be able to pet the doggy because they were spending so much money to be at Disneyworld. The owner got them kicked out of the attraction. Which I felt was fair. Teaching shitty people not to touch dogs they don't know is a generally good idea.
Some acutely ill people do test positive for a long time. I've seen people test 12+ weeks positive and be sick with it. Long COVID is real. It's not common, but does happen. (I consider anything after 3 weeks to be long COVID.)
Yeah a friend of mine ended up in the hospital weeks after she recovered, still testing positive and having lung issues, and I've seen studies where people are still symptomatic and testing positive for months. It's a nasty virus.
