The Crown v Gerard Baden-Clay, 17th June - Trial Day 5 - Week 2

[Oddsocks]

I have a little sympathy for Toni. Being in a desperate situation and being needy and being lied to, she probably felt sorry for Gerard in a way.

Dr Bourke says the score of 18 shows Allison did not show significant signs of distress. #badenclay

But NBC said she must have severely depressed because she wore dark or neutral tones. Who is the expert here?

Dr Bourke says Allison told him the affair had been going on for three years. #badenclay

Francene Norton ‏@francenenorton 48s
Dr Bourke saw Allison several times. on 30 May 11, she was having significant stressors at home, feeling guilt, anxiety. #badenclay @abcnews

David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 55s
Allison said the affair had been going on for three years, and GP increased her Zoloft #badenclay

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 57s
Dr Bourke says he told Allison she might benefit from an increase in her anti-depressant medication. #badenclay

Sounds very much as though Allisons depression began as post natal depression and was exacerbated by the conflict withing the marriage, the affair and the failure of the business.

If you google zoloft one of its uses is for pmt - just that, all by itself - you dont have to have anxiety or depression!!!!!

Dr Bourke says he wasn't concerned that she was under any more distress than her usual "flare ups". #badenclay

This is what we've known all along

Dr Bourke says Allison asked for a referral to a marriage counsellor and an STD test. #badenclay :crying:

 

[redlightthroughpaper]

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 34s
In August, 2011, Dr Bourke referred her to a Dr Lumsden. #badenclay

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 37s
Dr Bourke says he did a mental health plan for Allison and did a K10 mental health assessment. #badenclay

I wonder if this was Dr Laurie Lumsden, psychologist (who also just happens to be an old Labour candidate for the State seat of Moggill).

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 42s
Dr Bourke says he assessed her risk of suicide. "My opinion was that she wasn't at high risk of suicide." #badenclay

 

[emirates1957]

I started off on 50mg some 17 years ago, which did absolutely nothing. 150mg suits me just fine. Maybe if I stop wearing black I could reduce my dosage somewhat.

David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 1m
Dr Bourke: anxiety and depression came up regularly when she faced acute stress #badenclay

David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 38s
Asked about suicide risk, Dr Bourke assessed Allison had a high degree of resilience #badenclay


Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 45s
Dr Bourke says Allison had a high degree of resilience. She was organised and had good insight. #badenclay

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 31s
Dr Bourke says a K10 is a question based test. Allison's score was 18 out of 50. The lowest score is 10. #badenclay


Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 37s
Dr Bourke says 50 shows you have a severe disorder. 10 means unlikely to be significant distress. #badenclay

Let me guess… none of those questions asks what colours one likes to wear? Can't be a very scienmatifical test then, can it Nigel?

but nbc said she must have severely depressed because she wore dark or neutral tones. Who is the expert here?

bingo!!

Lol yes that is a good treatment plan!

David Murray ‏@TheMurrayD 41s
Allison told GP of finding out two weeks earlier that Gerard was having an affair #badenclay


Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 43s
Dr Bourke says Allison asked for a referral to a marriage counsellor and an STD test. #badenclay

Well that sorts out the 'I am not sleeping with my wife anymore' claims, why else have an STD test. I hope she stopped sleeping with him after that.

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 29s
Dr Bourke says Allison never spoke about being suicidal and he never had that concern about her. #badenclay

Kate Kyriacou ‏@KateKyriacou 55s
Dr Bourke says the Zoloft "seemingly did have some effect" on Allison. She seemed to have benefitted. #badenclay

There you have it!!

Clearly the Doc needs to take some lessons on "The Psychology of Fashion", with NBC. Pfffff....psychological testing? Who needs that.....
