@meghannmcuniff: A psychiatrist who testified in Lindsay Clancy's defense today (Tuesday, August 18, day 15) acknowledged that she didn't report hearing voices until the day she killed her three children, but he said her medical records still indicate she may have been experiencing psychosis. Donald Condie didn't meet with Clancy, but he reviewed her medical records and testified as an expert witness about her postpartum problems. In cross-exam, Assistant District Attorney Shanan Buckingham had him confirm that Clancy didn't report hearing voices to her psychiatrist or mental health counselor, then asked, "And the only time she's ever said that she heard this voice was on january 24 of 2023. Is that fair to say?" "Correct," Condie answered. "Thank you. Nothing further," Buckingham said. In re-direct, Clancy's lawyer Kevin Reddington asked Condie agrees "there are reasons that a woman would not tell the doctor or minimize their symptoms out of fear?" "Yes," Condie answered. "What kind of fear? Fear of what?" Reddington asked. "Well, in the records, it stated that Ms. Clancy reported she was worried that her children would be taken away from her, perhaps by the Department of Children and Families, if she reported very severe symptoms," Condie said. "The other thing is, as a health care professional, boards of registration sometimes take a dim view of people who have been in treatment for certain psychiatric illnesses, and so she might have been concerned about her nursing license, but that's speculation." "So there are other reasons why a person may be concerned about telling healthcare providers, mandated reporters, that they're hearing voices. Correct?" Reddington asked. "Yes," Condie answered. "Would you agree with me that you don't have to see the proverbial unicorn in the corner to your health provider to be suffering from psychosis?" Reddington asked. "Yes, that's true," Condie answered. Condie said psychosis "can be quite episodic." "An episode can start and stop, and then an interval of time goes by. It could be days, weeks, or months, and then another episode occurs," Condie said. Condie testified for about 70 minutes.

People lie every single day to their doctors stating that they only "drink socially" because they're afraid of judgement. You're trying to tell me that if those same people had been starting to hear voices, they would be completely forthcoming with that information? Everyone is different, of course. But women are ignored by doctors at every turn. My friend had admitted to hearing voices and begged for help for three full years. She was just told it was anxiety and she needed more sleep. Last year, she was diagnosed with severe schizophrenia when she jumped out of a moving car and finally found a doctor that would listen. My aunt suffered from 10 years of dizzy spells, falls, and odd symptoms. She was told the same f*cking thing as my friend. It's anxiety. Get more sleep. Try meditating. Then she went into septic shock from golden mesh (the standard back then, which has since been rarely used, BECAUSE of this happening) from a C-Section 17 years prior. She can no longer walk unassisted and is fully disabled. I can't say if Lindsay did this or not. I just know what happens when women ask for help. Absolutely nothing. I hate that I'm adding clout to this. Because this is their LIVES we're talking about. Everyone involved. But the fact that I see so many people saying, "Well, she still did it!", literally makes me lose faith in all of humanity.

The prosecution has lost this case. It will be not guilty by reason of insanity.

Your mom, probably :
Not to mention that as soon as you mention anxiety, stress, or mental health no one ever takes you seriously again at a doctors office. It’s always anxiety or stress.

I respect medical professionals and I also will not trust them inherently because I do not trust the healthcare system as a whole. Obviously, there are people who wouldn’t disclose certain pieces of information to healthcare providers, and for GOOD reason, as suggested in this clip.

If she didnt admit to or withheld symptoms for fear of losing her kids or the mental health stigma, that makes it look WORSE for the defense’s case. How were practitioners supposed to accurately diagnose her and accurately medicate her if she’s lying? So she caused her own psychosis…? Just trying to follow the logic or the argument here.

Please post the clip of the final witness stating that he was in the hospital room when Lindsay called Patrick on speakerphone when she told Patrick that she heard a voice in her head that told her to kill the kids and to kill herself it’s around 7:03:00 on the associated press on YouTube.

regardless of Lindsay being afraid of losing her career or custody of her children because of medical reasons isn't relevant. because if she had done that and been honest, and if the state decided to take away custody of her children, THEY WOULD BE ALIVE NOW.
