On April 27, 2003 I wrote about my mother’s letter to Robin. It is at this link: April 27, 2003 I am including it here for Robin’s benefit as she appears to have missed it when she read my blog or possibly she read a post about this that I may have written online on a discussion board in 2004.
Robin, if you read that entry, you will see that I clearly did state
that my mother did write you, Robin, a letter and tried to put blame on
you if something happened to me. Meaning that she implied or more than
implied that if I committed suicide that you would be at fault. You
will also clearly see that I stated that I was never suicidal, never
told her that I was suicidal, and that she took it upon herself to
write her letter in that way. I didn’t approve of it, had no
preknowledge of it, and had no control over her. You should know that I
had and have no control over her.
I never have threatened suicide to anyone in my entire life.
Suicidal thoughts are also a symptom of depression. Having a thought is
NOT the same as threatening or attempting suicide as my mother did so
many times. Yes, I told a PSYCHIATRIST who was evaluating me for
clinical depression that I had had suicidal thoughts. That is what
scared me into going for evaluation and treatment. That is not the same
kind of thing that my mother did when she repeatedly threatened and
attempted suicide. My condition was never anything like what my mother
has.
I did not gloss over that point of my mother’s behavior. I did not
neglect to state that point. If you read a post of mine where it wasn’t
stated, it is a fact that I don’t always get every detail into
everything that I write. I tend to write lengthy posts anyway. I did
not leave any point out due to avoiding the truth. I did describe
exactly what she did in my blog on April 27, 2003. I am working hard at
showing you logically why you could draw different conclusions than the
ones that you are drawing. Since I am editing this post a couple of
days after I first wrote it, you might not see the edits but looking at
the post now I want to make it more clear even than before if I can.
