Dysfunction Junction, THANK YOU for letting us know! You did some work here and it is beneficial to those who were wounded by her.
I am MOST concerned to see this. She had talked about it here. There is something very wrong with her, as she spent hours and hours posting in a site that clearly had wounded souls. She had no respect for their hurt, and engaged in juvenile conflicts with them. She hurled insults thinly veiled as intellectual discussion.
As time went by, and people became more angry with her, she escalated her baiting and taunting. I've never seen anything like this from an educated "adult."
Clearly, she was compounding injuries and did not at all recognize the harm she was doing. She commented frequently about how immature people in these posts were - while she was completely lost in conflict with the posters.
This is a particularly insidious form of emotional abuse. She confused some of the posters who were not able to recognize what she was doing. Some became enraged with her - precisely what she was looking for - and then she would slam them for being upset. But SHE had created this! She took on a smug and superior air, further infuriating these people. She did not recognize that some of the rage that she stimulated had been created by CEDU experiences.
She bragged often about being a psychology graduate student - I have no way of knowing if this is true. She had an excellent facility for language - making it all the more difficult for some of our posters to handle her. She would turn anything she wished around, twisting the meaning, and pouncing on the person, pointing out what they said. This was particularly infuriating because she never accurately represented what had been said.
She would ask others questions, and if they did not answer, she attacked. However, she was challenged SEVERAL times to print out all of her posts and present them to her advisor. She never ONCE answered or responded to these challenges. Not one word. The better psychology schools require extensive therapy for each student. Also, behaviors such as hers would be of grave concern to an advisor. Although she claimed to spend ?very little time? in the posts, she produced vast volumes ? by some magic, I suppose.
I am an advisor for doctoral students. If my student presented something like this to me, I would report her to academic affairs and recommend a full psychological evaluation and therapy before she would be allowed to continue in the school. It is possible that a person such as Annie from Minnesota (interesting ? she told us she was in Ottawa, Canada) would be expelled from the university where I am a professor. It happens. These people lose all their tuition money. First and foremost, a psychologist must be mentally healthy. She clearly is not. It is the student?s responsibility to be mentally healthy and fit ? and to rectify it, if possible, if s/he is not fit.
She eventually made threats to posters, prompting me to delete many of my posts. I had been in private practice at CEDU briefly ? it was a very sick place. She then posted that she had printed out my posts, clearly threatening me, and closed with ?have a nice day!? This person is very immature and enjoys power struggles. I think she?s perfect for opening a CEDUesque kind of place.
Keep us posted as to her progress, okay?

She is one SICK individual and the ultimate hypocrite, as said previously.
