i was asking questions, as are a lot of people. i didn't claim to know everything, nor did i bash psychology as tom cruise did. so thanks for answering my thoughts, and questions--you helped a whole lot. 
there were so many red flags thrown by this guy over the years--i just don't understand what it takes. he was on anti-depressants, so obviously under someone's care. and if roommates, laymen--can see this guy had a problem, why didn't the professionals?? THAT is what i'm asking. |
Mrs Z, I never get personally upset, you should know that by now. I wasn't offended by your post, only pointing out that you don't know the field nor the legal aspects well enough to be critical of MH staff. I'm the first to agree that major changes in how we treat MH patients is a must! As your next post indicates, apparently the judge never committed the boy...again, if he admitted himself then we can't hold him UNLESS he's actively suicidal or homicidal...since a year passed since he was treated, obviously that was not the case. Now Scuds...I tire of his attacks, when it me...no problem, I ignore him BUT MH professionals don't deserve his ignorant invective!
