I can't believe you didn't mention that on her blog she's talking about how the drainage bag (you know, a bag of pee flappin' in the breeze) and the suspenders in this picture makes her look like a cyborg.

I like to let people discover some fun bits for themselves. It's like one of those chocolate wonderballs, only filled with regret and a desire to un-see things, instead of temporary tattoos and delicious candy.
 
She seems to wear her dead dads clothes a lot. The #dad shirt tag has a lot of pictures, and her talking about how the clothes still smell like her dad.

I think this is the first time anything I've seen on this website has made me genuinely angry.

On a more constructive note, here is a blog post about her father's death. It seems he died in November 2014, so not that long ago.

Here is the creepy blog post that was mentioned earlier in the thread, in which she proclaims her "love" for her feeding tube.

It has been very amusing over the years watching Anne Bevington (lawyer) and Dave Seidel (Neurodiversity leader's husband) try to stifle discussion about Baggs.

Bevington succeeded in scaring Droopy into taking down her videos that claimed Baggs had copied her life from some old chat room they both used to frequent. Bevington even threatened to sue Droopy over anonymous comments that were made on my blog.

I can't count how many forums I've discussed Baggs on where one of these two showed up out of the blue and managed to have the whole discussion deleted by threatening the forum owners. Of course, any time I challenged them, they always ran away with their tails between their legs.

Sheeit. So it isn't just her mom's personal army, but also a representative of the whole neurodiversity movement trying to suppress information. This corruption goes higher up than I thought.
 
". She was never institutionalized. Her family paid $1000/day for
> MONTHS, out of pocket. Her longest stay was 8 months, the rest were 72
> hour holds to 2 week holds, in private hospitals"

Her parents are fucking saints. I wonder if she was ever thankful that they spent thousands on her while she cycles through diseases and dropped LSD.
 
I was going through the abaggs site, and I found a few interesting tidbits for you all. (Spoilers: Someone has apparently slept with the hellbeast in the past. Pity that poor soul,kiwis.)

Each consistently observed that Baggs (a) did not have any degree of the profound autism symptoms that she has been presenting publically (CNN, YouTube, etc) since 1997 at 26 years old (and apparently since about 2001), (b) that Baggs was a fluent verbal communicator, normally socially interactive (had ongoing friendships, took part in social activities such as eating in the cafeteria many times a day with other students, played the flute, took part in casual social gatherings with friends and others, had a boyfriend with whom she was sexually involved, was able to be self-sufficient in attending classes, eating, self-care, etc, was expressive emotionally through her gestures and tone of voice, made normal eye contact, etc), (c) that Baggs never reported to anyone that she was autistic or Asperger’s, (d) that in 1995 they witnessed her frequently using LSA and psilocybin extensively for about three months, and that this caused various psychotic symptoms to arise, such as her claim to be an elf, her digging in a school yard for a listening device, self-harm behavior, reports of hearing voices, etc, and (e) some of her former friends were privy to her Internet group discussions, and were able to track the evolution of her various claims from 1995 onward, namely first her claim (it appears) of Dissociative Identity Disorder (see the relevant discussion in theIndex above, then Schizophrenia, then Low Functioning Autism; and other claims as well such as Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression, sexual abuse by two close family members, physical and mental abuse by health providers, etc.

Later in 1995, shortly before her withdrawal from Simon’s Rock College (SRC), several of her former SRC friends (one of which is now a neuroscientist, and another of which is now a Ph.D candidate in Psychology and has been a mental health professional for many years) attest to how she aggressively used LSD and psilocybin for about three months, and on a near daily basis.The SRC friends attest to how they observed her undergo psychotic behavior during and after this 3 month period, including exclaiming that she was an ‘elf’, digging in the school yard for what she believed to be a listening device implanted in the ground, suicide attempts and self-injurious behavior, aggression toward others, her report of auditory hallucinations and the witnessing of her behaving as if she was listening to and talking with auditory hallucinations, etc.

Man this is so unreal. She's just so bizzare in every way she possibly could be. She's like some weird character from an episode of some obscure kid's cartoon brought into the real world. "Golly you better watch out for crazy old Amanda. She sounds like an animal and she's got a full beard!"

I could understand it if she really were suffering from some developmental disorder or something. But apparently she just trashed her brain taking waaay too many drugs, and from the way she sounds online she's fully aware of all that's going on with her and how bizzare it all is, but she happily chooses to keep doing them because in her fried little mind it makes her feel like she's doing something big in the world. She's like at the absolute bottom of the lowest point that a human can possibly go.
 
So why the fuck does she have the feeding tube and piss bag anyway? Like what condition caused that?

I almost wonder if she deliberately caused the feeding tube/piss bag thing.
 
I'd be irritated at the amount of people skipping through and asking repeat questions in a fairly short thread like this one, but I can wholly sympathize with the desire not to see this Hutt's asshole more than once.
 
Damn, this rabbit hole just keeps getting worse the deeper we go in. Not only is she a liar, but she's also threatening legal action against those who can see through her bullshit. It's sad when someone goes this far to cling onto their delusions.

She'd be a great lesson to kids about the dangers of taking drugs, that's for sure.

Back on the subject of drugs...
She may have done other drugs besides LSD that caused her issues.
But sometimes unscrupulous dealers will sell other chems and call them LSD.
DXM is a common one, and it can cause brain damage in a way that might resemble autism. There's also jimsonweed, which can cause long term delusional breaks with reality.

DXM? Oh I think it may have been much worse...

This is certainly a "hard drugs"-related descent if her IQ had actually dropped that much over the course of half a year. A 3-month LSD and mushrooms bender can make for a crazy summer, but such a feat been survived by many individuals with their brains left largely intact.

People selling her DXM (Dextromethorphan) as LSD is an unlikely cause of brain damage because Olney's Legions (read as "actual holes in your brain") can't be reproduced in human studies via DXM unless you take it intravenously, and even then the brain damage can't be reliably reproduced in human tests. Not to mention that DXM's effects, the high that kids drink cough syrup to achieve, are more often described as mildly disassociative and a bit like getting drunk. It's not an "I'm digging up the brainwave transmitters!" kind of drug.

Now other NMDA antagonists, namely Ketamine and PCP, were in high circulation during the time she was in college. It would also explain the rapid mental degredation over the course of a few months and her hyperactivity during her trips. These drugs WILL cause Olney's legions over time or in high doses. I'm not saying that she didnt do a lot of LSD and psychoactive mushrooms, but the alleged effects point to her doing much stronger stuff.

Tl;dr: She probably stuffed rocks into her brain.

Psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, is being evaluated for medicinal use in treating (real) clinical depression and PTSD!

Here's a nontechnical explanation: Your brain's neurons establish high-traffic "proven reliable" pathways to the easiest ways to unlock dopamine, then motivate you to act upon them. This is how people can develop addictions to eating, drugs, vidya, and even exercise. You can even become addicted to being depressed because there's a large dopamine response that results from the adrenaline rush of being incredibly sad. Suicide attempts also tend to recur because of the flood of adrenaline, love, attention, and other things which release dopamine that suicide attempts provide. Yes, it's kinda fucked up.

Psilocybin, in measured doses, has been found to target the part of the brain responsible for these "highways" and break them up into smaller, tiny, roads which aren't preferred any more than the others. Combined with cognitive therapy, people have been able to establish new, long-lasting dopamine pathways that lead to better behaviors such as creating art, exercise, or other superior coping mechanisms.

Studies like the one linked below are currently being conducted. Provided that the results stay consistent, we may see a method to cure PTSD and clinical depression victims within our lifetime!

I have no doubt she flipped out on acid or shrooms, possibly for some period of time.

No way it turned her into a full tard, though. That's just bullshit.

And her current level of verbal ability puts the lie to that as well.

Losing your dad is the worst but posthumous letters on her blog for all to see?

I don't doubt that she's genuinely grieving but I think she might be purposely dragging it out and playing it up for some of that sweet, sweet attention.

And really, I'm only saying this because I think that's the root of why she does almost everything that she does.

I can't wait for @Null to respond to that bullshit.
