I think I feel very sorry for her... I gotta be honest here. A person that does this sort of stuff has had life changing horrible events in their lives to condition them to be this way. It's the only answer that makes sense. People like that who go out of their way to be so spiteful either have something chemically imbalanced in their brain and actually DO need medication or have been so incredibly mistreated as a person to have them act out like that. Either way, she needs help.
Even now as I stand back and see all of this and the things she's done, I'm wiling to bank that she completely alienated herself from people in general. Instead of being a victim from traumatic events of her life she builds the wall around her and she fights. She's probably been fighting her entire life, probably been *surviving* all her life.
Her lack of empathy is incredible and she stirs the pot, churning and churning because she's got too much time on her hands. And if she's doing it here, we know she's doing this sort of thing elsewhere.
Do you notice how she actually said *you've got to love this. And sometimes I think I'm so brilliant* as though she's validating her behaviour? It gives the impression to me that someone somewhere down the line told her over and over that she's not smart and she's desperately trying to get her power back.
A well balanced person wouldn't do those things, a person who has healthy empathy for others wouldn't do those things. I think she needs help. Maybe she needs some friends.
I also noticed that after the Toronto girl gave her a virtual hug letting her know that she appreciated her support and gave her a virtual hug she calmed down on the cookie thread.
Her behaviour is atrocious but I'm beginning to see that she's more of a textbook case with her acting out and doing mean spiteful things to get attention. 'Cause all she was doing with that Annie thing was trying to get attention and clearly doesn't know how to go about getting support or meshing with other people unless they pat her on the back and say good job in order to give her the validation she needs that she is bright.
Have I analyzed her to death yet? Lol! Wondering here, can she be helped?
