All of this is AWESOME, thanks for digging it all out for us!
I am taking all of 'Michelle's' health woes and suicide attempt with a grain of salt though. Not saying it ISN'T true, just reserving judgement. Undoubtedly she was an underage kid, but even underage kids know how to lie about dying on the internet for asspats. Even if she was lying about it, Staph's emotional manipulation was uncomfortable af. I don't know to what element it was sexual, but she was definitely fostering codependency because she desperately needs to be needed.
