I feel like a lot of articles are just meant to show someone’s social media friendly photos and profile.

Thats a horrific thing to happen, glad the police believed her.
Shame about the so called friends who were too lazy to check the loft before calling her crazy.

so i imagine most people would rather quickly check the loft than be put on antipsychotic drugs, but not this woman, fair play.

LBC’s Digital Editor, Flaminia Luck, seems to have been involved in some kind of contest to see who could slip the most typos past their spellchecker (‘*Chloe said she feld “gaslit”*)
This was my favourite piece of gibberish – *’She also explained that she had a condition that made her hear different environments, such as swimming pools or pubs’*

I once spoke to a lady who was on the verge of repossession. Split with her abusive ex, kicked him out. Over 6 weeks she kept noticing little things unusual, 6 eggs left when she thought she had 8 etc. Just thought it was stress. Then one night she heard small noises coming from the loft, she thought it was a mouse or animal. Pulled the loft ladder down slowly and very cautiously peeked up there.
She saw a man’s foot poking out of the dark.
Needless to say she bolted and got booked into a hotel for the next few weeks which was (partially) why she couldn’t pay her bills. The police came and pulled her ex out, who had gotten a secret key cut and had been living above her bedroom for weeks.

While a doctor will never ‘force’ you onto anti-psychotics, they will certainly strongly recommend them, to the point it seems to be unreasonable to not listen to medical advice. This is often compounded by friends, family and peers.
Speaking from personal experiences, anti-psychotics are a throughly unpleasent experience. They num and subdue all aspects of your emotions and personality. To other people, you’re far less extreme, irritable or stressed, so they appear to be working. From an internal perspective, all these emotions still exsist, but all sence of passion has died, leaving you unable or unwilling to act on them.
They replace the short explosive outbursts which disrupt others, with a slow internal decay. You continue getting worse day-by-day, but at a pace slow enough to not be noticed by those around you.
Anti-psychotics certainly have there place, but they are heavily over-perscribed (like-wise with anti-depressants). A large portion of mental-health conditions are a result of external factors negatively effecting someones life. Doctors are unable to do anything about those, so instead prescribe drugs to chemically subdue someones emotional state.
If someone says something that sounds crazy – assume they are correct before drugging them…

A crazy story made even worse when it’s revealed her neighbour who was telling her it’s not true KNEW THE WHOLE FUCKING TIME. This is horrific and I’m glad the police didn’t dismiss her claims and actually did something about it.
