^^ This.

I'm mentally ill. My anxiety is so bad that I struggle to leave the house, my depression is so bad that I struggle to do the most basic tasks to the point I'm worried that I'll get told I shouldn't be living alone. I'd wager that the vast majority are like me, where we don't even want to ask for help because we don't want to inconvenience others because we don't feel we're worth their time.

Hurting innocent people would probably be the one thing that drives me to suicide. It's the absolute last thing most of us want.

I'd wager that the vast majority mentally ill people that get violent, already had or would have had violent tendencies regardless.

Damn bro.

I've got bad depression/anxiety problems but not that bad. I think there's a difference between getting setting off and pre-meditated murder. I've had some bad bipolar episodes, but I've never considering harming anyone who has done nothing to me. It is how it is, clearly I was made this way for a reason, even it is just to test me.

It always pisses me off the whole "vaccines cause autism" thing. As if being autistic, or neurodivergent for that matter, guarantees a life of unhappiness. Most lives are unhappy, if you unravel them. It's the fleeting moments of serenity, of whatever that looks like for you, that make it worth it.

Well there are things like anxiety and depression, and then there are things like schizophrenia. Places like Riverview used to be for the latter, and as someone with a schizophrenic brother say it is entirely necessary. Not as a permanent arrangement, but as more of a specialized incarceration institution until the person can be cleared by medical professionals. There's only so much that can be done when despite having an immense amount of family support a person decides they don't need medication, don't want help, and end up wandering the streets yelling and swearing at things/people only they can see. Even if the vast majority still aren't going to actually be violent.

I'd assume the majority of people who have committed these high profile local attacks will fall into that sort of profile.

exactly. The man who stabbed, beheaded and ate parts of his victim on that greyhound bus in 2008 spent 7 years in a secure medical facility and was eventually released back into society unmonitored. Not sure how any of these review boards can ever get comfortable that medication intake will persist though.
