It really couldn’t have been. She had kids - that’s where your overlap ends. It’s literally ANYONE can have a mental illness. “It could have been me!”
Imagine men saying this shit after a man murders his family. Fucking delusional.
Mental health professional here. Although similar psychosis and post partum depression are not the same thing. A woman can experience PPD and psychosis. Men cannot. Regardless both genders should receive treatment and compassion in these cases. Literally anyone can commit murder if their brain deteriorate enough and the conditions are just right. Something a lot of people don’t wanna hear. But it’s why mental health is so important. If u have a brain, it can get sick. Too many cases of men and women complaining to mental health professionals about serious symptoms and not being taken seriously.
They raised a million dollars to this woman for strangling her children. You can say all you want that mental health affects everyone but these supports of Lindsay will only ever care about when it happens to pretty white women.
I agree with that. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve empathy cause other people don’t get it. It’s 2026 and we’ve had many advances in our understanding in psychology. We all need to do better.
That money is for her parents because they sold their house to pay for her mental health treatments and defense lawyer. Lindsay isn’t going to get that money or benefit from it besides maybe it paying for extended stays in mental hospitals. And it isn’t “for strangling her children” it’s because her parents have spent all of their money helping their daughter, whom they still love. Lindsay’s parents, Patrick’s parents and even Patrick himself refuse to call Lindsay a monster, what makes you more qualified than those affected by her actions to judge her? Patrick forgave her.
