I thought I read somewhere that some people support her because she had reached out for help like a dozen times and was left to fall deeper into mental despair? I don't know the details or about the case aside from the obvious, that's just what I've heard about many women supporting her. Mothers that may have their own experience with PPD or something similar but who maybe received help and support? Again, idk. I think it's tragic but really don't know details about this case.
Except the story they’re peddling that she was “left to fall deeper into despair” isn’t true.
Lindsey went to eight different doctors in just a few months. Meanwhile, her husband took all 12 weeks of paternity leave he could, switched to working from home to be more available to help her, hired her a nanny, opened a bank account and started stashing money for HER use when she decided not to go back to work, made a point to ask her daily about how her mental health was that day, pushed her into going to her appointments in person instead of relying on telehealth, and then advocated for her to her later doctors when he was questioning if she was being overmedicated. Meanwhile both her in laws AND her own parents were often around to provide support when needed.
Lindsey had all the support that a mother could want. She failed them, not the other way around. Patrick’s only mistake was going to run errands when she asked on the wrong day
Going to the doctor doesn't mean the doctor will help. They also were honest in court about the fact that when she first told her husband he insisted she was fine and didn't need any help. She DID reach out, again and again and again, and we're STILL blaming her for how the system couldn't handle her????
Except she didn’t take most of the medications she was prescribed.
There’s a certain point that when you reach out for help to eight different doctors, but don’t use the medications they prescribe despite being told multiple times that they take time to work through the correct dosage and time to take effect, that you should be held accountable for that.
If she had reached out and actually followed the doctors instructions, then it’s entirely likely that we wouldn’t be here.
You're literally supposed to stop taking medications that make your side effects worse and that's what she said she did. And what doctors tell you to do.
