Incredible isn’t it..People that truly look traumatised and in shock
Ch 7 "talk into this microphone and tell us what happened"
A neighbour of ours tragically killed her toddler quite a while ago whilst reversing out of the driveway. The commercial media grubs were outside her house for two days trying to talk to her. Disgusting.People that truly look traumatised and in shock

I do feel that we make it a bit too easy for people in this country to have mental health issues and to get away with things on the back of it.Hopefully some good can come out of this tragedy in shining a spotlight on mental health funding and forcing change.
I think that's absolutely true at a high level, talking about anxiety affecting people's work/study etc.I do feel that we make it a bit too easy for people in this country to have mental health issues and to get away with things on the back of it.
Our obsession with mental health wellness has become more damaging than helpful.
Resilience, duty, responsibility have gone out the window when we coddle mental illness and elevate it to be a supreme virtue.
And simultaneously difficult to access and afford for those who need it.I think that's absolutely true at a high level, talking about anxiety affecting people's work/study etc.
But when it comes to serious conditions, and people suffering from manic episodes it's a completely different situation.
The sector is severely overworked, under paid, under staffed and under appreciated.
Copy cat act?A priest stabbed tonight with a pen - wtf is going on
Hey, mate. I'm currently living with my Mum. My Dad recently passed and I'm helping her out at her place. It's been a breath of fresh air, to be honest. I do have to go back, unfortunately. I've been trying to find another place but no luck as of yet.@Blue_Eyes84 I just wanted to see how you are mate - a few weeks ago you were in a bad situation with a share home and people you were living with were taking your stuff.
Are you OK now? Did you find a new place or did you sort things out with them?
OK mate. I am sorry to hear about your Dad. I hope you and your Mum will be OK. I will be praying that you can find a better place to live.Hey, mate. I'm currently living with my Mum.

Sorry im a bit late on this, but, ffs the guy stabbed a 9 month old baby, if that isn't mental health issues I don't know what is. Noone of sane right mind could do that.I do feel that we make it a bit too easy for people in this country to have mental health issues and to get away with things on the back of it.

That’s my point. Mental health is associated with anyone killing someone unless it’s self defence. So it shouldn’t be an excuse to get a lighter sentenceSorry im a bit late on this, but, ffs the guy stabbed a 9 month old baby, if that isn't mental health issues I don't know what is. Noone of sane right mind could do that.
Those are ****ed up stories man. Firstly, apologies that you have met these people.That was clearly mental health though. He had been diagnosed and was off his meds at the time from what I understand. No excuses just reality. Black & white
I also worked with a guy, who was recently found guilty and sentenced for murdering his ex girlfriend. Sick ****er had her in the boot of his car while he drove thru MacDonald's and went to a job agency for a few hours in hurstville. Far as I know he didn't claim any mental health issues and what he did claim was quickly shut down by the magistrate
I also had 2 acquaintances murder a bloke, with a cricket bat, in the flats opposite Sutherland police station, go get a cheeseburger at Kirrawee maccas, brag to someone there that Don Bradman would have been proud of him then come back and murder his girlfriend pre mediated because she was a witness. Under the influence of ice and alcohol. One of them was a diagnosed schizophrenic the other claimed no mental health isssues. I don't think they went lightly on the schizophrenic as far as I know he is locked up in a psychiatric ward indefinitely, whereas Jerome only 21 at the time got 47 years, I think 38 on the bottom non parole
So no, in my experience not every one who kills someone is associated with mental health issues and even if they are, are not given a lighter sentence. I don't agree with that at all
