About r/illnessfakers: Discussion of Munchausen By Internet, related conditions and toxic "Chronic Illness Influencers" for whom evidence suggests they may be lying, feigning or exaggerating illnesses and medical crises for attention and/or profit. We speculate from a distance ONLY and forbid contact with those discussed in any form. We cannot diagnose anyone. Many here have CI; all concerned about MBI, parallels to post-Pro-Ana subculture and damage posed to CI support spaces. Please note NO PERSONAL TALK HERE!
