An Illinois woman named Carrie Walsh, who was "obsessed" with the Lindsay Clancy trial, has killed her 2-year-old son Barrett, hanging him, saying she thought he was "the devil" and "the antichrist."

I don't give a fuck about what anyone says. SSRIs ruined my life and destroyed my brain beyond repair. Fuck doctors. Fuck psychiatrists. Fuck my family who believe shrinks over their son. Fuck myself for trusting them in my worst moments. Fuck anyone who gaslights me abt this.
John Battaglia killed his 2 daughters in what forensic psychologists said was psychosis, stemming from a bipolar disorder
The jury deliberated for 19 minutes
He was executed in 2018
I say this as a woman.
If Lindsay Clancy gets off because of hormones, then women should NOT be allowed to do anything important.
Vote, buy a house, start a business, be around children, etc.
They might fuck that up too “because of hormones”.
Marriage used to be the starting point.
Two people would come together with almost nothing to their name, but each other, and then they would build everything side by side. This process of building led to bonding, it built loyalty, it required tremendous sacrifice and most of all it taught interdependence. But now we are told the opposite. We are told instead that we need to have it all before we marry.
We need a good career, a home, a bunch of money in the bank, your entire identity discovered and solidified, a passport filled with stamps, a degree and much dating experience.
The problem with this is that by the time two people finally decide to join one another, well they have spent most of their lives learning how to do life alone.
So it is not wonder then that building a life with someone else, suddenly feels so much harder. Marriage used to be a beginning, not it is an after thought to an already built life.
Two already self-sufficient and self-reliant people do not easily merge and mesh. It is hard to go from the perspective of “mine”, to “ours”, when individualism is all we have ever known.
And this is why individualism has become the death of marriage.
