I think food has always been a source of comfort and enjoyment for her, but if she was hypothetically "diddled" that wouldn't be a total shock. A lot of sexual abuse survivors will say that on some subconscious level, gaining weight is a mechanism for making yourself less sexually desirable to people they may otherwise prey on them. If you look at Amber's relationships, they've all been with women that are pretty meek, intellectually stunted and easily controllable (with the exception of Destiny, who had something resembling a backbone, but was otherwise harmless). She doesn't feel "Safe" unless she has 100% control.

She's also briefly talked about wetting the bed during a trial period where she was reunited with her meth head parents. That's not a normal behavior for a pre-teen, but it can be indicative of abuse.

I don't think Amber was diddled. If she was, she'd tard cum it for all it's worth and if it was a repressed memory, then it'd be expressed in other ways. Also every sexual abuse survivor I've met has issues with sleeping next to other people, sometimes to the point of panic attacks. Not all survivors are the same though, but I still really doubt Amber was abused sexually, especially since she lied about Casey (sp?).
I have to disagree. This is one area of her life--if true--that she probably would not exploit because of how deeply shameful she may feel about it. And if it was a repressed memory she's buried because it's too painful to face, we can clearly see how it's "expressed itself in other ways." She's over 600 lbs.

I think the truth of her life scares her a lot more than she lets on. And her pathological need to lie about everything, to everyone, including HERSELF, is more a strategy of avoidance. Denial has served her really well, in a psychological sense, because it's shielded her from reality. It's also destroyed her body, and basically signed her death warrant at this point.
 
I recall her telling the story of her Dad bringing home a big bag full of McDonald's burgers and didn't she say she stole most of them? I'm not sure when the wiring went wrong in her head. Maybe she was lonely or felt neglected by her shit parents that she so badly wants to reconnect with all of the sudden, but it seems she has been fucked up from an early age. She was 11 when she was removed, or at least that's one tale she's told. That means the burger incident had to have happened prior to that. I suppose it's possible that she was diddled by one of her parent's friends because junkies aren't known to keep the nicest company and was perhaps offered food to keep her quiet and she's relied on it ever since.

I realize that's a huge leap, but I can't think of another reason aside from basic run-of-the-mill neglect that would cause that level of disorder. I would think maybe starvation, but she was clearly never neglected in that way. Maybe jealousy of her brothers and did take their food out of spite? It would explain the food aggression. I don't know and she probably doesn't either and never will because our gorl knows what works for her and no therapist or diet doctor knows jack shit. She's lived in her body her entire life, ok, boo boo.

A lot of pathological behaviour isn't the result of one big dramatic event but rather the gradual accumulation of bathing in a dysfunctional environment 365 days a year, during one's crucial formative years. I actually think that kind of abuse and neglect is much worse, it's not flashy so other people don't intervene until it's too late. People can be surprisingly resilient to one-off traumatic events as long as their daily environment is healthy and supportive. But when the daily environment is toxic and is the problem itself, if there's no auxiliary support figure either at school or in extended family, then there's no safe place anywhere for the child to go - they can't help but be warped and damaged from it because that dysfunctional world is their only frame of reference. And even though our gorl has become a terrible person, we can at least feel sorry for child Amber who was yet-unformed as a person and was too young to understand what was happening.

My stab in the dark on what happened is that early on Amber started developing attention-seeking and neediness behaviour as a strategy to get her parents to respond to her, and unconsciously she came to believe this was the correct way of responding to the world and other people. It became her pattern to get her needs met. She continued to refine this pattern of acting in foster care, and even managed to get her girlfriends' families to take care of her afterwards. Youtube came along and reinforced her attention-seeking behaviour to new heights.

We've had this discussion a hundred times but the song remains the same: There are billions of people on this planet, billions. And most of them have had it real fucking shitty. They didn't turn out to be 600 pounds OR drug addicts. Most of them aren't violent, most aren't criminals. They get by though. Amberlynn's past means jack shit to me.

Amberlynn said she was "born on drugs". Whether that's true or not, idk. But I do believe her when she says her family is jam-packed full of drug addicts, fatties, and bipolar disorder. She was doomed from the start to be SOME kind of fuckup.

Personally, I don't even believe that she ate for "comfort" as a child. I believe she's a hopelessly addictive personality--sugar and fat are proven to tickle our reward centers the same way drugs do--but probably turned to food instead of drugs because the behavior of her degenerate parents (whether we're talking abuse, neglect, or BOLTH) frightened her enough to keep her away from drugs. She's stubborn. I'm sure she told herself a million times that she'd never be like them, she'd never be a drug addict. But it was always going to be SOMETHING. What she is, is in her DNA.

Word to this. I've been party to the 'let's speculate about Hamber's past' because it's interesting to me, but in the end, the speculations provide merely explanation (potentially), not excuse. Someone can work on getting over their shitty past if they have a good support system, seek the proper help, and, mostly importantly, take some fucking responsibility. Even if Hamber did the first two, she seems incapable of doing the last. Hell, even her occasional 'I did this to myself' laments feel like she's fishing around for pity points, especially when she asks things like 'why was I chosen to be 500+ lbs?' as if some demented fairy godmother cast a spell on her.
 
The problem with AL is that she's completely delusional about weight loss.

She gains ten pounds like it's nothing and when she loses a single pound she acts like her life is completely changing. She's gone on dozens of diets and failed all of them because the concept of commitment or effort is completely lost on her. She, a 600 pound woman, goes to a weight loss doctor and stops the visits because she "can do better on her own".

She might have been abused but her being clueless and lazy and attention-seeking isn't related to that. Abuse may be the part of the cause, morbid obesity is the problem, but the thing that's stopping her from progressing is her own dysfunctional mindset and ignorance.

That's because she sees continual gain as inevitable. It's just something that happens, like the weather. She doesn't get that she is doing this to herself -- she's not courageously swimming against the current and managing to not only slow the unstoppable, but even reverse it a pound or two.

She doesn't get that this isn't a disease she caught from someone sneezing on her. It's the culmination of actions she has taken and decisions she has made.

But she's not responsible for her weight gain. She can't be. Call it an article of faith or ALR's Adipose Accountability Avoidance Axiom, or just a lah she told herself until it became true: She doesn't just reject the blame, I think a part of her truly doesn't see how she's involved in her own obesity at all. Ask the sunflowers why she was chosen for this, guize. Some people are just born to suffer.

Her "weight loss" though? That's all her. That's why she can't let anyone else have meaningful input -- i.e. control -- over her diet plans, because that's the only thing she has control over.

Or so I reckon, anyways.

I agree. Sometimes she seems genuinely confused as to how exactly she's managed to gain 15 pounds in a week, and it's pitiful. The blame is still completely on her, but it's astounding to look at someone like Becky, her girlfriend, who's supposed to love her just sit back and watch as she packs on another couple pounds everyday. I'm no relationship expert but I can't imagine loving someone and not forcing them to admit to a clinic when they're getting slowly killed by their obesity. She's cycled through so many enablers, it's sad that there's nobody in her life except haydurs to knock sense into her (not that she actually listens anyway).

Aside from the occasional fat joke most people are empathetic towards those that have eating disorders or struggle to lose/gain. On her videos where she actually loses weight or sees a doctor the comments and like to dislike ratio are completely different from her regular "mukbang + why I'm quitting WW again" vlogs. Eugenia Cooney for example: people were all very happy that she went to get help, her comeback videos got millions of views, Shane Dawson literally made an hour long documentary about it. For someone as attention starved as ALR, I assumed that views could motivate her, but now I'm skeptical. I'm not sure there's anything in the world that would convince her to get off her ass. Except for food, of course.

Becky is an actual idiot. The dumb shit she believes in and the way she speaks...it’s so astounding how utterly dumb she is. She’s one of those women who believes absolutely everything she hears, and if she “loves” or believes in someone, she’s absolutely 100% on their side. To her, she met a girl online who was somewhat cute (I mean the girl was fucking Hannah and Rafe and they look like shit from the Lord of the Rings,) someone with money and someone who had a ton of criticism focused on her weight. She’s never seen that side of the Internet before. To her, all she sees is thousands of people attacking her girlfriend, calling her fat. She’s probably the type to completely avoid watching videos EXPLAINING why Amberlynn is such a trash human being. She’s so god damn dumb and dumb people are loyal, at least when they want to be.

Amber goes out of her way to date exceptionally stupid people. Kacey got out. Kacey knows exactly who Amber is and that scares the absolute orange shit right out of Amber. Amber knows deep down just how ugly she truly is inside and out, and she knows that we all know, and again that scares the fuck out of her. We also know she is in total denial about how she’s living her life, so she will always refuse to admit that she’s a terrible person.

She’ll do everything possible to bury her head in the sand so that she doesn’t have to admit this is all her fault. Her pointless, sad life is her fault, her weight is her fault, her loneliness is her fault.

Ask anyone on the street their story and almost everyone has been dealt shitty cards and gone through trauma at some point, and not all of them had to become garbage human beings to cope with it. She wants to say people dislike her for her weight because she doesn’t want to think about how truly awful she is. An abuser will never admit that they abused someone. A liar will usually never admit they lie. But Amber knows. Somewhere underneath that crushing fat is a heart that knows it’s made of stone so she will bury it in Mochi and bread and rice and Cheetos and reese’s cups so that she can feel it beat once in a while. It’s the only excitement and happiness she has in her life. It’s the highlight of her sad day.
 
Amberlynn is a narcissistic, manipulative, lazy, gluttonous cunt. And I believe she would still be all that no matter her past/upbringing. The world would be a better place without amberlynn.

I somewhat agree, her checkered past gives her the merits to her sob stories and excuses but she would be even worse had she been given a loving, supporting family. The biggest brats I know come from ordinary and sweet families that spoilt them rotten.
 
Wasabi is definitely long-haired, looks part Maine-Coon to me, that older cat Charlie looks fairly long-coated too judging by the tail

Last time Amber was claiming to be allergic to cats, she said she was allergic to Rarity...

(granted, this was some time ago and I don't know if she's now claiming to be allergic to Wasabi)

Yeah, Becky is an unfortunate creature. She's under Big AL's boot and she doesn't want to get out from under it. She's so unhealthily attached to her, it's going to be a spectacle to watch when AL inevitably kicks the bucket.

Her day to day life is basically McDonald's/Walmart sprees (since AL can't walk from a car to a scooter anymore), painting those boxes of hers, and talking about dead family members. I guess I can't diss the painted boxes though, even if they're not that great she at least has a hobby unlike AL (Amberlynn if you're reading this, remember that collecting cheap jewelry and journals and eating aren't hobbies).

Alas, Becky stays defending her Lady of the Lard from internet bullies.
 
Bit of a nitpick but wasabi doesn't look part Maine Coon at all. He likely isn't even long haired, he looks like an ungroomed/washed/brushed medium hair cat.

Given what a racist piece of shit Amber is, it makes sense her cat is a Maine Coon.

A racist living in Kentucky whose teeth are falling out, was raised in a trailer and loves Walmart... is there any white trash box she doesn't tick?

Can't tell is sarcasm or silly
Maine Coon cats are the best and not related to race horseshit. Like a coon-skin-cap !

Also can't tell if sincere, teasing or trolling.

Besides, wasn't Becky the one who toed the line and went on that borderline-racist spergout during a Younow stream a while back? It was extra funny because of all the aftermath, including Michael be Petty and Life of a Freespirit Tweeting and streaming their own megamad retaliation. And now Amber's old Tumblr posts being dragged up for some fresh takes on cold tea.
