Rockland County Legislator Aron Wieder Wins Primary Race for State Assembly
We are sorely missing the mashgiach Rav Mattisyahu Solomon Zatzal he would have given a fiery chizuk shmuz and guidance on this unspeakable tragedy in Lakewood
ReplyDeleteApparently that is not what hashem wants..
DeleteWe have Chai Life Line to be mechazek us.
DeleteOne thing is clear you can't trust the news at all even the mainstream news orgs were publishing articles without knowing any facts and reporting rumors as facts with gory details
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't this site report yesterday's tragedy instead of pretend nothing happened
ReplyDeleteWhy is not reporting pretending nothing happened. Is it possible that are some issues you don't report on?
DeleteWho decided that awareness actually helps as if people are not aware without all the so-called mental health experts having a field day?
As talmidim of the mashgiach who taught us for over 10 years we should know what R Matisyahu would say had he been with us.
ReplyDeletePlease share with us the olam needs chizuk
DeleteOne thing is for sure
DeleteReb Matisyahu's talmidim wont get their chizuk on this forum.
We don't know anything about the background and not up for speculation and assumptions of what kind of help and medical treatments went on There is a extended family suffering terribly and we are here to support them during this difficult time.
ReplyDeletehow can we help and support them?
DeleteSomeone will start a fundraiser for some indeterminate cause. Named Keren xx and yy
DeleteI'm traumatized
ReplyDeleteYou sound like a millennial ,anything what happens it's all about you all the time. You are not part of the story,Frankly no one can care less that you are traumatized. No don't go seeking therapy learn how to deal with it on your own.
Deletethe tragic story is a one in a billion but this article gives some background
ReplyDeletehttps://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/postpartum-psychosis-rare-condition-spotlight-killing-three-children-m-rcna68165
Thoughts of self-harm or harming others, particularly one’s children, can also be part of the condition but are less common. Among mothers suffering from postpartum psychosis, about 5% will attempt suicide and 4% will commit infanticide, said Michele Davidson, a postpartum psychosis expert and board member of Postpartum Support International.
When these mothers kill, it is often done under the false notion that they are keeping their children from an even worse fate. “In nearly all the cases that are true postpartum psychosis, there really is not malicious intent,” she said. “It’s basically these women trying to save their babies or take their babies with them to heaven.”
The frum society today is a pressure cooker between financially surviving getting kids into babysitter playgroup school camp moms carpooling all day keeping up with the kohens and what not the societal pressures to fit in and on and on there no stopping this runaway train. Young couples don't get a chance to live and relax
ReplyDeleteTotally out of context and insensitive reply. If you have nothing constructive to say just keep quiet.
DeleteTotally out of context and insensitive reply. If you have nothing constructive to say just keep quiet.
DeleteYes especially if parents are not in town or helping out as parents sometimes need to take care of themselves.
DeleteYou should be ashamed of yourself.
DeleteMental illness doesn't go away with 'live and relax', and life isn't about relaxing.
The intown frum world is imploding and will implode from within.
DeleteComplaining about today..... Have you ever lived in a different era in a different society? What makes you think today is any harder than it was?? Maybe you're terribly lucky that you have it easier.... No out houses... Blood libels ... Talk about pressure and difficulty
DeleteAnyone who was a REAL talmid of the Mashgiach for 10 years would not be on ANY website!!!
ReplyDeleteHis Size fits all approach was only a persona for in public.Under the table he usually was tailor made for the person.
DeleteIf MIncha is in a tent, it is a great improvement. The halacha is that it is assur to daven outdoors, yet people just don't care. The minyanim on busses are a shande for Klal Yisroel, but we celebrate them as though they are an expression of Yiddishkeit.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly so. If someone is "on the way" and close to the zman, there are allowances to daven so. What is a shande is your lack of halachic depth, yet still feel the right to criticise.
DeleteWhy are so many people 'on the way' every week? If they happen to be on the way, that's one thing.
DeleteBut these people have organized life that davening should take place in the least optimal halachic way. And then they have the gall to call themselves 'chassidim'. Unlike any Torah description of the chassidim and how they used to daven.
Making a lechatchila out of allowances, and then celebrating it.
So you've shown your true colors, and I won't engage further in your discussion. Please seek help for your mental illness.
DeleteWhy is the community hearing from no name self appointed clinicians or social workers preaching to the entire community
ReplyDeleteThis tragedy has turned into another clickbate opportunity
Like during covid when eye Dr's became infectious disease specialists.
DeleteWe are back to the covid19 days when opportunists jump out promoting themselves before respected leaders have a chance to address the situation
ReplyDeleteYou're right that everyone jumps on the bandwagon, and opportunists abound. But what is sorely lacking is our leadership addressing this or any other current problem. They are MIA on most issues. I challenge you which shul in Lakewood has a Rov that will speak publicly about any current issue. Mental health, sholom bayis, chinuch, otd, financial, tuition, housing, Lakewood driving without regard to laws, chilul hashem issues, housing shortages, parnassa problems, shidduch crisis, children not accepted, spending habits, living standards, and the list goes on.
DeleteThis is the reason why people are open to hearing "anything" and anyone that can help them deal with all real life issues.
The news sites obsession with using a tragedy for click bate is sick and evil
ReplyDeleteHave they ever been so concerned about mental illness? What have they done prior for awarness?
Do they care so much about sensitivity and privacy while showing victims in car accidents for click bate?
Turn off the devices stop allowing their sewage to seep in
News sites and organization don't miss an opportunity to monetize a tragedy
DeletePeople r turning to goyish opinion because our Gedolim choose to rather pretend nothing happened as we all feel by their silence. In the mean time everyone including mainly the woman are all upset and stressed out about it speculating what really happened and how to react to it
ReplyDeleteBTW the whole day today it was on the news and discussion on talk shows but I did not hear anyone mention anything about her being Jewish, Frum etc
ReplyDeleteBoruch Hashem
DeleteAll the big askanim in suspenders & those who employ them are busy with what happened.Let them get out of the way. It was them who caused this women to lose her meaning & go off the cliff. Underneath they are a bit aware of that too, but she is considered minor debris for the sake of the important demographic of the community.Like by the cantonists
DeleteThey mentioned treatment by Hatazala, which is online code for being Jewish.
DeleteAnd picture of mother wearing a tichel.
Reminder
ReplyDeleteYour pool cover up is not a substitute for getting dressed in clothes
What is this Lakewood Vaad? Is it another invention of the APP? I have never heard anything about it, who are they? What do they do? Whom do they represent?
ReplyDeleteCan just anyone call themselves 'the Lakewood something or other'? Or do you need some kind of qualificaitons?
YWN yeshiva untervelt news publishes a anonymous editorial about competing news sites who reported on the Lakewood tragedy. Such Hypocrisy coming from YWN who think they own the News of klal Yisroel. A filthy disgusting nasty website that has been spreading lashon Hora about klal Yisroel and Bizyu talmidei chachomin nombstop, a leading Rosh yeshiva in the US called them mecharcheri Riv
ReplyDeletethey are angry that they were upended and scooped by others so they go to their playbook pretending to be holier and care about mental health and victims blah blah
Protectionism at its best.
They are trash and gossipy as the NYPrust
There's nothing Yeshiva about them
