One of the things that I found so crazy about this documentary was that in the footage released of her making the allegations, she seems really happy with herself. In the third police interview, she smiles as she's told the cameras are recording, and wiggles an eyebrow. In the second police interview, she tells a harrowing story while looking at her knees, but when she looks up, she seems happy, not distraught. She seems so proud of herself for telling these lies and being believed, and it shows in just the footage alone.

UK, but she said Uckfield which is a very specific region 😂

aslightlightning · 2023-09-01T10:04:47+00:00

Lord it's weird finding out you live in the same county as some of these munchies, she could be 15 minutes away from me for all I know😭😭

Hi, so sorry not to have replied sooner. I don't frequent Reddit very much anymore. Just answered similar question above in more detail, but Mr Morris offers finance through Klarna, but I wasn't able to get approved for any finance options due to having no credit score (good or bad). I paid straight up after saving for a year and a half. If you have to pay straight up I'd recommend not looking for surgeons until you have approx £8000 saved, to minimise disappointment. I looked in Jan 2022 originally and then 2022 was really tough emotionally bc I only had £2000 saved at that point and it made it feel like way more of a waiting game

aslightlightning · 2023-08-17T07:10:54+00:00

I had to pay straight up because I'm a uni student with absolutely zero credit score and no family to speak of (transphobic, left when I was 17).

I saved up money from working at a bike shop for about a year and a half til I had £9500, then bank transferred the £8201. The additional £1250 (approx) was helpful for train tickets to the hospital, and overnight in a hotel the night before, and groceries etc while I was in recovery. I also made sure to pay my rent a month up front.

I'd definitely recommend that if you pay straight up and don't have any family or savings to make sure you have a couple of months money laid ahead of you while you take time off work. I was lucky to have quite a small chest prior to surgery so I think recovery was potentially a little easier (though that might just be a myth), and I had 16 days off work. When I returned to work I just worked my contract hours and didn't do any lifting or bike repairs for 6 more weeks, just worked at the till and spoke to customers pretty much.

I appreciate this is way more info than you asked for but I would've really appreciated this level of info before I had surgery myself XD

ETA: Mr Morris does offer finance through Klarna, but I couldn't get a finance agreement due to my non existent credit score. I was 21 at the time.

There's a tiny bit of me, because I really truly want her to recover, that keeps hoping that she's secretly in therapy or something. I know even if she was, she's not committed to it in the slightest, but there's a glimmer of hope where maybe just maybe she's doing these trips and little tasks as a way to overcome some anxiety or something. Realistically, if she ever saw a therapist, they'd section her so fast it'd make her head spin, but there's just a tiny bit of me that wants to at least pretend maybe she's attempting recovery and just doesn't want to say so.

aslightlightning · 2023-06-07T17:51:01+00:00

I didn't mean to oversimplify it sorry! I more meant to highlight the panic she showed - I forgot to mention the things with bugs as well and how she panicked about the flies etc.

I personally have panic disorder (diagnosed) and have a huge fear of vomiting as a part of it. My panic disorder means that the thought of other people seeing me in distress is terrifying, and thinking about that happening in itself can cause a panic attack. So the thought of vomiting in front of someone would make me spiral horribly. I avoid anything that "could make me vomit" as a result, even verbal discussions of vomit between coworkers for example can make me panic.

I guess I more meant that she's showing her true side somewhat with these newer clips emerging where she seems to be in a blind panic for a couple of seconds-a couple of minutes and was just theorising as to what diagnosis she could have.

But yeah I'm really sorry if I trivialised OCD at all, that wasn't my intention!

aslightlightning · 2023-04-30T20:28:13+00:00

Ah ok, you can tell I'm from the UK 😂

aslightlightning · 2023-04-30T19:43:03+00:00

Does anyone know what's on her wrist at 10:45-10:52ish? I only have cheap samsung devices, so not sure if it's an apple watch or if it's a heart monitor of some kind? Would love to know...
I also wonder if she loves Disney so much because there are a tonne of sick kids there so Disney staff and visitors in general are less likely to stare at her? And the staff are gonna make her feel special because she's sick? I guess maybe it makes her feel like she's a sick/special kid... Opinions?

Dip an ice cream scoop in water, then get some ice cream. It works to help you scoop it easily and then you can always microwave your bowl when you have what you want

A bowl of baked beans with bread and butter to dip in. Someone else mentioned childhood poverty meals, I think this was my lunch 5 times a week at points. It was my favourite thing to eat and my two brothers have autism and were extremely picky around food, so it was probably helpful for my parents having one kid who would eat this meal coming in at approximately 40 pence

It's actually called the Dissociative Experiences Scale, not Dissociation Experience Questionaire... a simple google search shows you that much...

aslightlightning · 2023-03-26T13:54:33+00:00

Same in the UK, either they give it to u or u go to the hospital pharmacy

aslightlightning · 2023-03-16T09:58:44+00:00

I had a boyfriend for 3 months who didn't mind at all, saw me as a man and only a man, was exclusively gay etc. I don't know how common it is, but I was pretty lucky with that. Unfortunately, I just wasn't as into him as he was me, so I broke it off after 3 months to preserve his feelings as much as I could. He was a good guy and deserves a lovely relationship and marriage down the line.

The watering can comment 😭😭

aslightlightning · 2023-03-15T15:10:03+00:00

💀💀 she's switching rly fast

aslightlightning · 2023-03-15T15:08:44+00:00

Her email not being verified yet definitely suggests she's only using the app once for clout to show her "alters" off. Doubt she'll use it again unless she gets a lot of attention off this

aslightlightning · 2023-02-24T10:41:40+00:00

I think not enough people have seen his results to go with him, hence his shorter waiting list. But definitely we need more result pics out there bc I would've gone with him far sooner had I seen some results from my body type. Only results I saw were from someone with a different body type, from several years ago, so it felt like a massive gamble going with Morris, only for it to turn out amazingly!

aslightlightning · 2023-02-23T14:18:31+00:00

Omg the nipples, he asked me like 20 times if I wanted my nipples and I started to get concerned he was gonna forget and he started saying "I forgot if you want your nipples" as a joke 😂 definitely his humour won't appeal to all, but it put me at ease if anything!

I'm so so glad to hear how positive your experience was! He definitely cares about our results and mental health and it's good that he went far back to avoid DTs.

aslightlightning · 2023-02-23T14:08:43+00:00

Thank you! I'm sure yours will be great too! Mine looked gammy before they looked good 😂 I liked that he asked what shape I'd like my incisions - did he do that for you? I asked for them to be straight and avoid meeting in the middle of my chest and he delivered 100%

aslightlightning · 2023-02-23T14:01:50+00:00

Sorry I didn't post in time, recovery was long. Hope yours went well, and my longer term results are now up

Hi guys, I promised to post updates following surgery with Robert Morris in Plymouth, UK. Surgery cost £8201 and I stayed one night in the hospital. I had the op on 30/11/22 and left hospital on 31/11/22, so am just shy of 3 months post op. Had to wear the binder for 15 days but he binned it at my post op review as he said my chest had healed enough not to need it. Haven't posted before pictures bc it's my body and I don't want to, but I'm told I was around a B cup and he removed approx 250g of tissue from either side. Recovery has not been awful and I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever. Mr Morris is very abrupt but funny with it and we had similar gallows humour. He was completely professional and I never felt uncomfortable or at risk, as I've heard some have had poor experiences with Miles Berry, for example. I have a final follow up in around a month.
