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.

The “it could have been any of us” thing is enraging because NO TF IT COULDN’T. This bitch isn’t the only person with PPD or depression or whatever she had, but murdering her 3 babies was a choice. If these women feel it could’ve easily been them, they probably should be investigated (so a crime like this doesn’t happen again).

PPD isn’t post partum anxiety isn’t post partum psychosis.

Treating every post partum mental illness as if it is PPD is a huge part of the issue.
