[quote=Anonymous][quote]Its weird that she was admitted at the beginning of January [b]but had been acting like she was so much better to everyone. Why didn't she tell anyone that she was feeling bad again and needed to be admitted again. [/b]She had already been admitted once so she knew it was possible. She had loving and involved parents and husband, [b]why didn't she just tell her parents she needed them to stay, or take the kids, or anything[/b]? She had already admitted previously to having thoughts of harming the kids. So why didn't she admit those thoughts were back? She chose not to do this and the most likely reason is that she didn't want to be stopped this time.[/quote]

Suicidal people will sometimes reach a point where they pretend not be suicidal so they can make their attempt without intervention. It's also possible that, if she were psychotic (because we won't know until the trial what the medical evaluation really is), her delusions implored her to hide the symptoms and plan so she could carry it out.[/quote]
