Exactly this.
Let’s not forget she is a writer as is her husband AND they have an agent. Getting the right words out is really important, but especially so under this set of circumstances. There are people out there, very vulnerable people, who hang on her every word. Her PND and PP post was huge and really prolific. She said she’d thought long and hard about it. At best it was sloppy and lacking, but authors and journalists with agents would surely have some editorial help? When you are making a big statement for your platform you do think long and hard about what you are writing because there will always be folk like us. So you do your due diligence, you think about the trigger affect, you think about covering the story to ensure it doesn’t come across as disingenuous that it’s caring etc. You’d do that for any type of bold statement, but an issue as complexed and emotive as PND and PP, you’d double up on every check mechanism available to you.
Like I said up thread, I knew nothing about PP before this but I do know about PND. From what I’ve taken from here, what I’ve researched since, they are two very different illnesses that require two different medical approaches and should not be thrown together like they are one and the same.
I don’t know what her medical situation is other than what she reveals on her business account on Instagram or in articles, radio and TV interviews. I can’t refute any of what she has said but the timing of her revealing her medical conditions is my main cause for scepticism.
@SansaStark I understand her book is about the rise and fall of influencers and influencers life, I’m not sure it’s about her MH, but if it is that would make more sense.
