I’m usually fascinated with the heridity properties of mental illness, esp. bipolar, but on this one you’re absolutely right. The world lost Nicholas Hughs, not Sylvia Plath’s son. The same was true when Margaux Hemingway killed herself. Genetics & famously ill parents don’t diminish the loss of a single human being to suicide.

The Daily Kos site permits readers to post “diaries” that typically do not appear on the front page of the web site, and which are not edited or reviewed by the proprietors of that web site. That headline relates to a user’s diary entry.

Ugh, what a terribly judgmental headline that is! Disappointed.
