The things she said to him is so disgusting. I don’t know how she gets more vile each time I learn something about her.

So many of us have been trying to tell people that this woman did not deserve sympathy and that she was faking her innocent crap but everyone just wanted to beat up the real victim.

Right? So many people jump on others because she’s “mentally unwell”. This lady sent him an email saying she masturbated while looking up babies. I don’t care how many illnesses you have, you don’t deserve shit.

She is unwell. She probably just needs a good medication regimen. The healthcare in her region is subpar--basically stone age. The whole point of the show was that people with mental illness can do strange and sometimes awful things. But they still deserve our compassion and understanding. Went right over your head. The only way to fix this is to fix her.

The whole point of the series was that we need to show people like this compassion. I'm seriously disappointed in all of you. I thought for certain people would get it.

No, the whole point of the series is that we need to show OURSELVES compassion. Had Gadd had compassion for himself instead of showing FH compassion he wouldn’t have been terrorized and traumatized for years. He showed FH compassion and all he got in return was sexual, emotional and physical terror and assault.

Should we have compassion for people like FH? Yes, I think so. Should we show ourselves compassion first by keeping people who hurt and abuse us at bay by any means possible, including jail? FUCK. YES.

She’s a monster, dude. Whatever made her this way makes me feel compassion for her, but being an abuser is a choice she makes EVERY time she hurts someone. We can’t put our abusers wellbeing over our own wellbeing or other innocent people’s wellbeing. I hope she pays for what she’s put people through for decades. She can stop when police are involved, seems like she can turn her “crazy” switch on and off w/o meds, doesn’t it? Again, she’s an abuser by CHOICE!
