Thanks @Flumps. I have a family member who does the same thing so it’s something I’ve thought about a fair bit because the mental gymnastics required to have a basic conversation with them is Olympic standard. The need for adoration, need to be ‘right’, to ‘win’ at conversations, sensitivity to criticism, making things about them is all the same too. I find it all fascinating.
So many narcissistic cunts, so little timeWe’d need a new thread every day
It's in the email she sent to Next.
I was honestly waiting for her to say she had EDS, it's had a lot of attention recently, I first heard about it about 10 years but only because a friend's niece was diagnosed.
The struggle is real.
I think if you are an artist, maybe one with a full time job already who needs more money to create art (materials, studio time, whatever) that you’re going to share publicly for free then there is a place to have a Patreon account.
it’s like those huge pop stars who charge for meet and greets. It’s leeching off people, most of whom will have less money than you, who hold you in high regard.
Yes I know the record companies and publishing houses and agents take a lot of the profit. You’re still left with plenty. And begging/guilting people for tips is not the same thing. It’s when the fan thinks they have a personal relationship with the famous person - but it only travels one way.
Amanda Palmer tweeted this a few days ago “
every month, all patreon creators lose a percentage of their patrons because credit cards are declined for one reason or another.
i usually lose a few hundred people.
this month ESPECIALLY, please make sure your account is up to date. we need you. “

Same person who paid for her seriously expensive smeg fridge and Marshall radio
I was in for MH but yeah, they used to take those in for addiction for AA meetings. There were a few a week. They also had follow up meetings they could come back for and 12 months of keeping in touch and availability to support. My initial consultation was £300. Additional therapy was £100 per session, then consultant follow ups about £150. So there was that for a few months till I got told inpatient of you're getting sectioned.
I find her so flippant about everything. It's like she views her alcoholism, anxiety, three therapists and the priory as cool. Oh, there make me so different. Not to belittle her experience, because addiction is horrid. But it seems like she collects personality traits she thinks are cool and will make a good story. And everything is exaggerated. Didn't she say she was drinking an absurd amount of units a week. She really doesn't paint herself as a capable parent at all.
It’s amazing that these hate emails are written exclusively by the girls at my early 00s secondary school, I don’t think I’ve heard anyone be called a greasy skank since 2004 (and it’s because she never washed her fringe bless her it was bad)
If it was true she'd of posted it. She would not miss the chance to send her minions on the attack.
Was this when she was with her current partner? The employment package at Channel 4 includes private health insurance, and if this doesn't include family members I think I could be extended to cover this.
THE BEANS ARE WHAT MATTERS GUYS. NOT ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME. THE BEANS. GODDIT?
PS That second pair of exclamation marks = lying through gritted teeth because she knows The Eye of Tattle is watching.

I presume her partner is working from home too? Why would she be hanging around that she’d kitchen watching jack not film for YouTube.. also she has to throw in that,no, she is the most ..
Oh sorry I didn’t mean to assume you were one of us, I know the residential programs are super varied and tbh I think alcoholics are usually the minority despite the Priory’s reputation?
I think that a lot of it from the conditions to the stories stems from... a need for identification / validation and I can understand that to a degree. I see it in my own relative who does it, they can’t cope with the result of X, lets say a standard breakup, but they need others to help them get through it so the story goes from standard tinder date that fizzles out to him being a controlling psycho, like really this all happened on your two dates at pizza east? Like it’s okay to be upset He smashed and dashed (sorry to be so vulgar) and learn from that and grow but you don’t need to make up am drams for our sympathy?
@BeautifulTrauma If you are interested in this whole way of fraud, listen to this episode. It's mind-boggling (but true). https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/v4he6k/
EDS is also a common (self) diagnosis amongst chronic illness fakers and attention seekers. Never did keep up that massive list of illnesses and tragedies that Jack has claimed to suffer from, but it comes as no surprise that EDS has been added
Yes, all very good points. I would also say that for someone who isn't completely on the breadline, but wants/needs to budget carefully, a pressure cooker is fantastic at making dried pulses and grains that take a long time to cook easy - even without soaking. You can pick up stovetop ones for around 30 quid and electric ones for about 50. It's a one time expense, they last for ages and I never buy tinned pulses now.
I am updating the list:
ADHD
Alcoholism
Anaphylaxis
Anorexia
Anxiety
Arthritis
Asthma
Autism
Depression
Ehlers-Danlos Syndome
Heart problems
Immuno-compromised
Mouth ulcers
Poor mental health
PTSD
Sexual abuse
Trauma
Weakened knees
Violence
Phew.
