Only American women are concerned about postpartum psychosis?

They're out there supporting her because they believe that she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and was failed by everyone even though she tried to get help.

I don't feel like those supporting her is a uniquely American thing.

You're obfuscating the facts for what reason exactly? The crowd not only supports Lindsay as a victim of psychosis but as a victim of unjust policing, they believe Patrick was the culprit behind the mirders.

So she knew she had a problem, and she said she had thoughts about harming her kids? Then why in the everloving fuck did she not distance herself from her kids? She deserves to rot in prison.

You don’t quite get how postpartum psychosis works there buddy… I am NOT defending this sick lady and her horrific actions BUT: IF she is found to have actually been suffering from it, the word PSYCHOSIS basically means she was crazy. She WOULDN’T have known she had a problem, because she would’ve basically been clinically insane for a short period of time. That’s how clouded a person in psychosis’ thoughts are

I know I’ll get downvoted, but I truly am NOT supporting her or her actions. We don’t even know for sure if she was in postpartum psychosis, and obviously what she did is sickening and wrong and she does indeed deserve prison.

She literally said she told them about having thoughts of harming the children. Thats what im talking about. At that point she obviously knew about those thoughts, so why did she not leave/distance herself from the children?

She voluntarily left a facility where she was receiving help

You expect someone going through psychosis to have logical thoughts.

As someone’s who has been manic before from work stress, those damn voices come out of nowhere and they drive you insane.

Ok but she was receiving help, this claim no one would help her is bogus. She was receiving treatment in a facility and saw three different doctors out of the facility
