Over the next five years Barry focused on her life after encountering personal problems which are kept private. During this time she slowly built up a moderate online following under the alias 'catnut' on the website livejournal. She revealed her name and her myspace in November 2007 claiming that people needed to see the site to see the truth about her- but in February 2007, the account was deleted after maintaining the same post for four months:
"Both my life- and my mind, have dissolved like sugar in tea. Sweet tea is cure for shock. How ironic that it shouldn't work on me."
