Now 52 but going back to when she had small children we ( my wife and I ) were always taking her and her middle child to a doctors , a hospital for different ailments. Wind the clock on and as an adult she has had a mild stroke, a suspected brain tumour various other ailments supposedly requiring hospital attention. We do not see her regularly as we live some distance and her parents live ...

Hi,
I dont know where to begin.
From the other stories Ive read, Im not sure if this is Munchausen by Proxy. If it is, I feel its very atypical. I would greatly appreciate any feedback or opinions.
I apologize in advance if this comes off as frenzied or disorganized, theres just so much to cover.
I guess I would like to give a background of my mother. My mom grew up in an extremely ...

Hello all! I am seeking out advice and clarity. Mu roommate from college has Munchausen Syndrome and I witnessed many situations of manipulation and lying. She was caught as she had injected spit into her hip and they doctors noted the bacteria was from her mouth. She was confronted and absolutely 100% denied she harmed herself. Her parents were convinced for quite some time she had this disorder. Fast forward...she left those physicians and then ...

I have a friend who I'll call Janet. She is a mother of 2 children, and someone who I believe has MPS. Some background info: Shes an extremely manipulative, dishonest, and self-centered person. She
justifies all of actions (even if they are harmful), and is anorexic. Her children, age 2 and 4, are appeared to be a normal weight, but she rarely feeds them. Their biggest meal is their school lunch and she gives them ...

Hello, everyone.

I'm kind of in a mess right now, and I would like some help in getting to grips with what happened to me.

It's been 5 years, roughly, that the term Münchhausen by proxy rings in my head. A friend of mine is the first who voiced it to me, after I explained to him what I went through. The description "feels" right, could be argued to fit symptoms to some extent, but ...

I understand that it is the horror of horrors to be made sick on purpose by an abuser, and then be forced to view you abuser as your saviour. But I just can't help having an inferiority complex against survivors of MBP. Every person I know who was abused as a child, has later in life been shown proof that they did nothing wrong, and it was all the abuser's fault.

They all have loads ...

Is there scholarly work or treatises on what becomes of adults who were proxies at the beginning of life?

As I have previously outlined, 3 years ago now, my (now) husband got custody of his two kids and they all moved into my home. Behavioural issues with the step-daughter, now 16, have been constant and escalating. Because of this, she was placed in an inpatient psych ward for kids for 2 weeks a few months ago for testing and observation. From this, she was diagnosed with Attachment Disorder.

We of course never heard of ...

I see some improvements because she is trying to learn boundaries. But that doesn't change how she made me pass out in a Spanish-speaking foreign country I visited 9 years ago to be deliberately vague. Of course, I'm on a private computer where nobody knows all my screen names. I know how to keep myself safe. My passwords are all so complicated that it is really hard to hack into my stuff. I am going ...
