Ive noticed this too. Ive also noticed that 95% of the general population needs therapy in some way. it would greatly help societyIzzil said:I think it's because truly psychotic people never actually believe they're crazy in any manner. That's why when people actually try to insist they're insane, most other people just know they're full of shit.Gondito said:Its incredible how people like this wont even consider Therapy.
Yeah, I figured. I should have said, "I'm sure you don't condone this kind of stuff..." first, huh? I think if some people feel bad for this guy, it's not like that means they support what he did. We're all human, yeah? (For the most part...lol) Sad stories tend to generate empathy in people, don't they?-Orgasmatron- said:It's cool man. I wasn't condoning his action, I was just thinking that some of the points he made where valid, in a weird, psychotic kind of way. Although, personally, I wouldn't like to subscribe to that kind of thinking.VonBrewskie said:Thanks for posting this. Made sense? Not really. I can empathize to a degree, being a bit of a loner myself, but killing so many innocent people because you feel alone does not make sense. Especially when there are so many options online and elsewhere to meet people. I'm not tryin' to be a troll or flame or anything. Just responding to your valid question. Hope you don't take it the wrong way. Totally crazy stuff. Good article. Thanks again.
Education about mental illness? We're definitely in agreement there. It's something that is horribly stigmatized -- which is one large reason people don't seek treatment.xmetatr0nx said:Apologiez, i was just re-reading that and realized i chose the wrong words to express that. What i meant was the decrying of something without understanding and just seeing the horrible side of it. Granted its only natural, but it seems like todays society is very quick to dismiss everything with just a few loud words and then movin on to something else. Im not here to change peoples minds or perspectives, its not the publics fault they are uninformed, i just wish the people would get a little more educated on mental illness.Susan Arendt said:How am I accusing or not recognizing the source of the problem? Obviously he was unwell. I'm not accusing him of anything other than murdering innocent strangers, which he did.
I believe it's called crazy talk.-Orgasmatron- said:Does this guy remind anyone of the dude who shot Lennon? They seem parallel to me in that both of them adored and wanted something so badly, but they couldn't have it, so eventually it becomes a symbol of hate and anger, then they go do something like that. For Mark Chapman the symbol of loathing was Lennon, for this guy it was women.
Is there a name for this type of thinking? If not, there should be.
If it weren't for people talking this way, maybe he would of been to humiliated to get mental help, which might of lead to him and those women still being alive.Mrsnugglesworth said:I hate to say it, but really. What a *****.
"Oooh waaaaah I'm so lonely!"
Someone call the waaahmbulance we've and got a case of grade A weeping!
And coincidentally, gunshot wounds.
He was mentally unstable as is! And he said that everyone was nice to him. So...

People being nice and therapy are two different things. People around him probaly made comments like the one you made above and this made him embarrased to talk about his problem. By the time he wrote that journal he was far to far gone for help, but that doesn't mean he was always that way.Mrsnugglesworth said:He was mentally unstable as is!

Thats very true. But judging by my avatar (Thomas Hobbes, if you've heard of him yay, if you haven't hear of him) I believe Humans are bad and we should feel bad about being so bad. Now my REAL opinion that I kept to myself not to provoke the unbridled fury of nice people is... Mentally Unstable people/Retarded people who cannot live by themselves or have another problem (Really bad fetishes like Blood/Murder/Pedophile/this guy type of crazy) should just be killed. Thats it. Done. All they're doing is wasting resources. Also, I've been to therapy. All I did was lie and on the crazy scale I'm... well I'm quite crazy but thats not the point. It was useless and... I can't really remember why I was there. So my point is moot. *sigh*-Orgasmatron- said:People being nice and therapy are two different things.
