The doctor's notes literally prove Kelly's blood was either disappearing out of thin air, or she was bloodletting. Eventually Kelly picked her legs to the point where you could see through the bones and ligaments. I've seen a lot of gore, but even I had to stop and take a breath before continuing looking at the progression of her picking. It should be known that regular skin pickers, even excessive skin pickers like me, could never pick our limbs to amputation. Kelly was on some serious painkillers and that's why she could pick literally to the bone.

[@user-wf3tg7bf5b]

​@@getitoutofme I don't think she would've consciously and purposefully destroyed her own legs, as no sane person would've gone that far only to stop working with ballet. But perhaps she had a very low self esteem and needed people's applause and compassion 100% of the time, and her "illnesses" and her legs so happened to be the first things she could come up with and destroy. Now the constant need of approbation and attention may be a direct result of her being a ballerina, whilst the self-harm directed to her leg may have been a subconscious manifestation of her pain and frustrations at the exhausting amounts of stress a ballerina is put through

I have trichotillomania and I once got into a really bad headspace that made me start picking deep into my skin for the follicles. I got so deep I exposed a nerve and didn't realize it. I almost pulled it out but stopped because that was some of the worst pain I've ever felt in my life .

[@AlisonInCT1971]

It makes me wonder if that was really a nerve she was pulling out or maybe a vein? I don't know but maybe her skin and the area underneath was already so dead from the decay that she didn't even feel it...? That's my best guess because even touching a nerve would send anyone through the ceiling. And even if she was on painkillers, they don't actually dull your physical pain, they just block some of your pain receptors and dull your mind. I am a former opiate addict and I can tell you that I've never taken an opiate that actually killed my pain. They more or less just make you not care as much. Even fentanyl wouldn't dull the pain of someone's nerve being exposed. All this to say I'm just pretty skeptical that it was a nerve she was actually pulling out...unless it was an already dead nerve. To be fair, I can't find the video so I haven't seen it. I tried, not because I wanted to see it, but because I just can't believe it. If anyone has a link though, I will man up and watch it.

[@pgakt]

[@Peach-ish]

@@AlisonInCT1971 I've seen the photos. It was definitely a nerve. This video actually undersells how badly she was picking at her legs. It happened over a long period of time and slowly killed it off. It was most likely completely dead when she pulled it out. It had been exposed for a while. If you really want to see, the farms has archives of all the photos, but it's really not a good idea. Her legs literally died from picking.

tbh that is pretty common, many amputees are very upset by having amputation surgeries and disconnection from the situation is a very common way to deal with that. also many amputees have dealt with health issues for years or even decades beforehand so they may be desensitised to surgeries or even feel relief.

@@takemybloon1210 On average it's not easy under any condition for someone to get admitted into a mental facility, and even then the resources are stretched so thin that even admitted, it's not quite the level of care needed. Much of this comes from the old facility scandals topped with the closure of many state facilities (started with Kennedy and continued on until Reagan dropped the axe on the rest as far as the States go). The idea for more localized facilities tanked because many don't want a mental health facility in their neighborhood, and the idea of families providing care fails when a mental illness is so severe it's beyond the family's capability to provide care. Add to this that there are people who messed up as it is, do fake mental illness which takes up the limited resources available and make it harder for those who do actually have mental illnesses to receive needed care. Mental Health care has long been in need of a revamp, but gets caught in the quagmire of funding, people thinking of the old facility scandals when it comes to establishing new longterm care facilities, and people getting weird about such facilities getting established in their neighborhoods.

I’ve seen a similar case (though it might not be the same mental illness). I had a friend back in public school, who was always oddly hyper, way hyper than me (and this was before I was diagnosed with ADHD and put on meds). Something always felt off, but we became friends despite this. Visited his home, and it didn’t hit me how stuffed it was with items and things they seemingly never used (way more than mine). His brothers and sisters had the same characteristics of being hyper. Another oddity was when they visited my house, they *immediately* dashed to our pantry and looked at the food we had. Again, I was a dumb kid and never questioned nor noticed this, but my mom and grandma certainly did. I think it was around the start of second or third grade when he first moved to another school, never questioned it. Then he came back the next grade, but he just seemed annoying (being *that* hyper was too much for me) and kinda wanted nothing to do with him and that was the last I saw of him. Maybe one or more years pass and low and behold, his mom was arrested for child abuse. Apparently, she was purposefully starving or giving little food to her kids, putting her kids on incorrect meds, and getting them sick on purpose, so she can make posts online to gain sympathy and attention from others. Every time schools got suspicious or doctors offices wanted to run tests, she’d have her kids enrolled in another school and taken to another doctors offices for their checkups. Yeah, those mental illnesses where you seek attention are pretty horrible to think about, you degrade yourself, your family, friends, and/or everyone around you for attention.

I want to clarify one thing since people keep asking why she wasn't committed; she was. Several times. She'd stay, stop harming, and get released and then go to a different hospital/doctor's office. Also maunchaseun is very hard to prove, and even if she faked 100 times, if she came in once with something real and died or as injured as a result of them not treating her, she or her family could sue. So with every new doctor there would be a whole new round of tests until they could prove she was faking, then she'd be committed again and released again. One of the most interesting things about Kelly is that unlike most fakers, who would pick a disease/disorder and then fake the symptoms, she would fake symptoms first and then wait for the doctors or internet to throw out guesses as to what it was before picking one off that list and THEN exaggerating those symptoms.

For the people who dont understand why health care workers dont act let me tell you my story. Nurse here. Years ago I looked after a woman that out of nowhere said she couldnt walk. Because they couldnt diagnose her with something they called it "chronic fatigue". After she started having " convulsions" and great pain. People around her started enable her. Everytime her partner would leave for a night out, she would be found on the floor with a head injury (she didnt even had a bump). Everytime she would be admited because she became a media star. Doctors sugested her to meet a mental health worker and she threw a fit (funny enough that day she walked away using her legs). She would sleep through the night but would set up an alarm every 4h so she could ask for oxycodone. And then one night I arrived: she was clearly high, her blood pressure was super low and the pulse below 35. She still had strengh to ask for oxycodone. Guess what? I REFUSED. I did a behaviour chart, did an incident report, contacted the night manager and reported to him about why I was refusing to clearly overdose this woman. This mad woman spent the little energy she had abusing me all night, writting on social media about how a monster I am. Next morning during my handover, my manager actually was against me. Facts. When I told her I have a duty of care and I am not paid to overdose people she kinda stopped. But do you know what protected my registration (yeah, how crazy is this)? It was all the well documented events during the night and me threatning to contact the Nursing Board. As far as I am aware this crazy woman is still out there abusing staff and all social media saying how brave she is.

As someone that has had a unexplained anemia and a horrible auto-immun disease I had since birth. Seeing someone fake this for attention is extremely upsetting. Healthy people that want to be sick is the sickest disease to me. Truly unreal imo. I will say that it is incredibly suspisious to me that she was so attention hungry and active if she was this sick for those years. I was barely able to stay conscious for more than a few hours a day during my latest bout of the anemia I had. That makes her seem unbelievebly suspicious to me personally, there is no way in hell you could be this active if you hade below 100 hb levels for weeks at a time. I was worse off than her though, needed more than double her does of blood over about 3 years. Haven´t seen the whole video yet, just paused it to write this. So far you have hinted that she possibly wasn´t being honest about actually being sick. I sure don´t think so when you see her in the interview and if she was that active on social media during the whole ordeal. As I said, I could barely stand for more than a few seconds at a time and was asleep for most of those 3 years combined. I was worse off than her though, I needed well above double her blood amount during my 3 years. And that is me being quite under appreciative to be sure that I didn´t exaggerate. Maybe I am wrong, but context seems fishy so far.

I’ve been through a similar experience as her, and unfortunately a lot of this does stem down to childhood abuse, neglect and I’ll include violence too. We know SOME form of this took place in her childhood. Everyone self harms for different reasons, but I always thought I genuinely deserved it. I sense some part of her felt that she did too. Maybe I did want the attention back then, because the people who raised me made me feel like I was a child of Satan. (I grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness, I’m agnostic now) Deep down, I think some small part of me knew I wasn’t. At the same time though, I felt like I was, and I needed the validation from a kind and empathetic human being to understand me before I could ever open up. When you grow up with neglectful abusive parents, it can be tough. I still acknowledge they did their best, and I love them to death, but it fucked me up in so many ways. The experiences in your childhood really have the potential to set a scary foundation for the rest of your life. It’s a complicated situation.. it took me 6 years to recover. (I started going to therapy when I was 18 and now im 24.) I’m just extremely grateful for every friend I’ve made along the way. Especially those from my childhood who, for some reason, never left.. and are still by my side to this day. They are beautiful people. My mom passed away last month, and even though I just turned 24, I’ve undergone this battle with fighting suicidal tendencies since I was 5. Her passing was what ultimately allowed me to accept this part of myself. Intellectually, I always knew these were the reasons.. but it takes a very long time to emotionally let yourself accept them. I love and miss her so much and I only wish I could tell her that I know she never intended to do any of this to me. So please, take care of the people around you. Don’t talk to people with malice. You never know what they may be going through. Edit: I feel the need to share my story so that it may be hopefully easier for some people to understand hers, or any people around you.
