[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So now we may not criticize this bloggers body of work because she died? She shall forever be a vaunted example of female empowerment and a true literary genius?

I also had PPD. Twice. I didn’t turn to a blogger to help me in the moments of despair; I had real life interactions and contact with my therapist, my physicians, my sisters, a trusted colleague.

Are you criticizing her body of work? I was something of a fan of her writing and the rambling, incoherent posts of the last five years are nothing like her earlier stuff - either her hilarious screeds on constipation or her beautiful letters to her daughter.

I am happy that you made it through your moments of despair; sadly, not everyone who struggles with suicidal depression and/or addiction does. Even those, like Heather (Anthony Bourdain, Kate Spade, [b]Prince[/b], Kurt Cobain), who have all those supports.[/quote]

Not to derail, but Prince's death seemed to be more of an accidental overdose of fentanyl, not suicide. [/quote]
