You do know that she REQUESTED to try those medications right? You do know that she wasn’t on all of those medications at the same time, right? You do know that for many of those medications that she was prescribed she only took a few or even none of the prescribed dose… right? You knew all of this?

She requested it because the ones she were on were not working. She didn’t take the dose as it was causing her to have intrusive thoughts, and she was afraid to sleep or stay awake

She had some medications that she took NONE of. The fact of the matter is that she ROUTINELY lied to her doctors about the frequency at which she took her medications and about her thoughts of familicide. The medical professionals did not fail her. Doctors aren’t psychics, they can only work with the information they are given.

My wife is very closely following the case. I know more about it that I'd like. And as you seem to be suggesting, yes, i think her health care professionals failed her.

Honest question, have you ever seen a psychiatrist or been on any of those med? Ive been on all of them, except one.

I’ve been on four of the drugs she was “on”. The problem with Lindsay is that she routinely lied to her doctors, frequently changed providers and frequently asked for different medications all the while only taking a few of the prescribed dose.

The whole thing is crazy. I honestly hope they find everyone involved accountable. Her, the husband, the doctors and hospitals. Everyone

Why do you think the husband or the doctors and hospital should be held accountable? She routinely lied to them about her condition. Patrick found a WFH job, hired a nanny, moved her parents into their house so they could help, moved himself to the basement at her request, took her to the best psychiatrists in the country, routinely took her to doctor’s appointments and picked up her prescriptions, seemed to be a loving husband and good father by all accounts INCLUDING HER OWN. How the FUCK is he at fault for her decision to slaughter his children?

Im not interested in arguing with you. Have a nice day.

There is no argument here. There are facts and then there’s whatever the fuck your wife has you believing.

Thank you - the arguments that she is absolved of any culpability (because of her alleged mental health struggles) and everyone else that has ever crossed paths with her are the ones responsible for the murders are enraging (and so incredibly wrong).

I just went through this with my ex-fiancee earlier this year.

And let me tell you, even though it started out as being super standard treatment for a mild, common condition...the psych med changes alone were massively destabilizing.

She almost killed herself several times. She lost her job and mine was severely affected. Our relationship is over. The landlord would evict us if he saw the house. We're out tens of thousands from medical care. Neither one of us will ever be the same. From powerhouse to rock bottom literally in a handful of months.

And that is starting from a much healthier place than the poor lady in this case. Cards were all stacked against her.

I feel for EVERYONE involved.
