I would say definitely no. I think he was already in a frenzy which is why he drank the caustic substance, not he went into a frenzy because he drank something poisonous.
just mo
and, it is like Batman Massacre, I have super powers and can drink drano OR ready to die
sudden realization of what he just did - suicide?
man that music on the boat video was dark guys, day of boating, which is hypothetically suppossed to be fun, humm what background music do I want - nah not" Walkin On Sunshine" (thats funny!) its a homocide song (never heard of that before- just came into my head! -- guy actually had a pretty voice!
For some reason, (it feels like we really dont have an academic picture), I would expect to see detoriating performance the last month or so
On his you tube channel he was frantic in liking stuff the final two weeks subscribing whatever....
Ugh I did realize the husband was allive when his face was being eaten?
do know in one of the AH videos posted here he says, in my own words, something to the effect that having to take steroid everyday would be a reason to not want to live. I still consider that his use of steroids and trying to stop using them had something to do with his recent mental struggles and chemical imbalance changes.
Just my thoughts
Hi curious
agree - i think his mental issues lead to the numbing obession with his his body, I mean folks with super powers have super bodies
still want to hear from the frat guys -- anyone?
Actually if he - or anyone - made a specific threat of self-harm like saying they're going to commit suicide, they can be temporarily involuntarily committed with the ability for a longer-term involuntary commitment after psychiatric evaluation and approval of the courts. If he was threatening suicide and armed, his parents could have immediately called LE and had him put under 72 hour involuntary commitment by saying he was carrying a switchblade and threatened to commit suicide that day. I just don't get the impression that he was threatening suicide in saying that he wanted to take his own life, but instead was saying he would do things that would kill an ordinary person but that he was immortal, but I think that too would qualify for temporary involuntary commitment for the same reasons.
I kinda think we will find out she has gone that route before - it really is pretty useless - those that meet criteria - acute chronic- really need long term in pt. Often it escalates everything - they drug em to death and through them out , when the seation wears off (since it was never really treated) slowly unwinds again.
kinda like a band aid on a broken arm when ya really need a cast
If he believed he was 'immortal' and had 'superpowers' he could have made what would be characterized as a suicidal threat, if he said he was going to jump off the Empire State Building to prove to everyone how immortal he is. It wouldn't be that he had a deathwish, but instead was saying he was going to do things that would kill an ordinary person and could have though he was nutty, but then saw it differently in retrospect. If he was actually threatening self-harm because he was depressed rather than because he thought he was immortal, the family's reaction seems odd not following him, waiting hours to call LE and then expressly saying he wasn't a threat to himself when they did call.
I am getting the sense that mom was just exhausted and over it. I would think (videos) he had been pecullioar for many years, and she almost got desentiszed , yeh Austin you got superpowers, eat your hamburger..
Sounds like read it backwards (makes some sense, now dad had medical training) that dad had more insight into his sons problems that mom??
And you know what else just hit me- did not pay attn to him taking off clothes- folks with bath salt seem to do that -
Had he had any sort of traumatic brain injury? I'm so at a loss of words with this case. It's so random, so brutal. He needs to pay for what he has done, but this is one case where I will be actively watching to see what went wrong with him and when.
It really is unreal, and so confusing and chronology in this matters imo what happened and when to help us get to why
Well, I'm anything but young, and taking the heat and slightly sloping terrain where I've walked lately, it takes me a good 60 to75 mins to walk 2.9 miles.
That is good glf! It sounds soooooo long to me!! FL- we are a driving state!
"Nothing unusual earlier that day" that is a relative statement no?
nothing extremely unusual about his behavior,
its kinda like compared to what - all of us agree the videos are off - so the notion of AUstin just being Austin...................
