Hey maybe the compliments that she wanted people to post to her agent were for a diagnosis.

The talk of ADHD brings me back to when she added the letters after to her name. If she were truly an advocate for this conditions I would almost understand it. But we all know it’s just another attention seeking device and an excuse for her behaviour.
Like many of us here I suffer with my mental health (official diagnosis: brain ouchies). Despite dealing with it for nearly 20 years I’m quite private about it as I regard myself as a bit of a failure for not getting back to “normal”. I know this is ridiculous and I’m completely the opposite with any patients (or anyone!) who are in the same boat. Funny how the mind works.
Jack doesn’t trigger me like she does for many of you but I can see why. Please all take care of yourselves and not let slop slinger bring you down! This year has been hard as I live alone so I’m very grateful to have found this thread of ninnies to keep me laughing. xxx
now away and duck off

Imagine being a victim of crime and getting a slow cooker and that book to cheer you up.
Oh god, I’m so sorry @Blurp, this is heartbreaking.
I too had a very disinterested doctor who essentially told me I was probably too sick to deal with, and it’s so hard. He had suggested BPD but I knew it wasn’t any such thing in my case. My diagnosis was a weird combination of a GP friend who I’d been to school with suggesting asking to be referred, and my PhD supervisor writing pushy letters to the GP because I had two breakdowns in the duration of the doctorate just due to the sheer stress of managing my focus.
And to be fair she’s not totally bullshitting because I did send a number of written statements to my consultant, at said consultant’s request, from my mum, friends, boyfriend, supervisors. But I had 21 months to gather these because of NHS waiting times
I strongly suspect that Jack had read somewhere online that this would be the case and just took them along unbidden.Mind you, the way she presents her condition as ticking EVERY SINGLE BOX (hyperactivity etc), she shouldn’t have had to work so hard to prove it. The appointment was probably about 7 minutes long and cost about £3000. Just know that regardless of her diagnosis she’s not happy or productive. I know that doesn’t help you in your situation, but it’s perhaps helpful in a mild schadenfreude sort of way.
I've read so many times that, women especially, get misdiagnosed often with BPD and actually it could be CPTSD or ADHD. Its always such a fight to get mental health care, when you are already fighting a battle to carry on and live a normal life.
SB might. He might want to do that thing?! What is it again... Oh yeah have fun! She literally is the most boring person in the universe.
Hey lovely Fraus and Herrs. I’m so, so sorry that Jack is being particularly challenging today and is making a lot of you feel bad. The one good thing about it is that it pulls us all even closer and the support we always give each other is off the scale. That’s something Jack will never have, which is sad but also fully deserved.
Jack Monroe on defeating Katie Hopkins and why low-cost recipes matter
The food writer on why her son isn't allowed to Google her, how veganism in a privilege, and the increased need for austerity cookbooks.
inews.co.uk
This interview states she was diagnosed With adhd and autism at 11!?………………
Just more smoke and mirrors from Monroe. Claims her parents were sat down and told she had issues as a child but they didn't act upon them. Would love to hear their side of the story. I would imagine it has been exaggerated and tweaked beyond recognition like all of her other tales. PS look at this pic of her looking her age!

I've gone past the original screenshot so will use this beautifully annotated one.
SHE IS THE WORST ADVOCATE. Her signposting to services or processes for others in need is bleeping abysmal. Oh wait, I remember, its because she doesn't care about the experiences of others.
Edited because I lost the screenshot in the quote but it was the "Persistence and a psychiatrist" bit
Edited again...like many in the cabal, I get upset because it feels so close to home. My job is to support people who are not being listened to, who can't find the help they need or have the door shut in their face.
Oh darling she isn't important enough to affect your mental health. The only decent advice I've ever got from a mental health specialist was to be kind to yourself and it is perfectly fine to avoid difficult family members when you are on your knees.
Oh lovely @Blurp I'm so sorry to read all this. Please know that you have friends here and the cabal will always be around to listen

That's what I love about this vile group of bullies. The support and love.
I belong to many online groups/FB groups etc about various issues in my life. My autoimmune conditions, my kids, my work, my vile Narc Mother. All of them are lovely groups and supportive, but not as much as on here.
I forget my exact origin story. If I remember correctly I saw the SH meltdown and found Tattle and joined. Then I stayed off for a while until Mr Schofield made his announcement at the beginning of the year and decided to look back into the blue pages.
If I remember rightly it was about the time Jack was doing her poor starving single mother routine at the beginning of lockdown. It may or may not be connected to the bleeping Landslide karaoke debacle, but I decided to look at these threads.
And here we are.
I accidentally stumbled upon the loveliest, funniest group of Fraus.
Long may we reign xx

This nice act of hers is sickening.
this is where we all stand up a la Spartacus eh
Ugh Jack being caring and considerate is possibly the most irritating Jack yet. She is firefighting the inevitable tit storm and is as false as duck.
Her scamming vulnerable kind trusting people is despicable.
Shameful actually.
