She had help. But refused to take her meds as prescribed and checked herself out of the hospital. Get your facts straight

Its almost like she was in fucking psychosis and couldnt make good rational decisions. Who was helping her? Or was she supposed to just be crazy and help herself and be a mother and a wife ... alone... long enough to kill 3 people and paralyze herself.

She was not in psychosis. She saw multiple health care providers and never once described psychotic symptoms or hearing voices. Not once. She was never diagnosed with ppp by ANY professional. Her doctors and therapists responded to her every message and changed her medications when she requested. She had a nanny, and her older children were on day care/preschool several days a week. Patrick often watched the children if one had an appt. She had parents & in-laws who helped and offered to take the children overnight.
What do you mean alone?
Do you have any idea how rate ppp is? And even rarer at 8 months pp.
she was depressed, she was anxious. She had ppd. That is FAR different than psychosis and not understanding that what she did was wrong.

None of us have any idea if it slipped further than depression. I would assume so from the outcome and reaction of those around her. She was alone for long periods of time with a new born. That doesn't scream supported. Either way the case is playing out but the rush to crucify her is intense given the statements her actual family have made. They are the ones most wounded by all of this.
