Sinéad O’Connor Reportedly Hospitalized Following Son’s Suicide

[Quote] My kids don't want to know me."

Her kids can't care for her. There is a difference.

It's like some ancient Greek tragedy.

Her kids were fucking traumatized by her. She is a BPD narcissist. Everything is me, me, me.

I feel for her. Her mind just works a lot differently than 99.9% of people.

May Allah grant her strength in this time of difficulty.

At least she (finally) acknowledges she's the problem.

We've discussed endlessly the need to stay away from toxic people - persons who only do harm to others around them. It doesn't matter what their personal problems are. No one can help them, and they can only hurt others. If only these types had self-insight and understood they harm they cause, but they don't. And they do, unfortunately, have children.

They fuck you up, your Mum and Dad

They may not mean to, but they do.

They fill you with the faults they had,

And add some extras - JUST for you!

But they've been fucked up in their turn

By fools in old-style hats and coats,

Who half the time were soppy-stern,

And half at one another's throats.

Man hands on inhumanity to Man -

It deepens like the coastal shelf.

So, get out as early as you can,

And DON'T HAVE ANY KIDS YOURSELF!

(Philip Larkin)

[Quote] Her mind just works a lot differently

Quit the romanticizing.

R4 yet you all can’t give Britney that same respect.

Preach, Philip Larkin!

Little Edie has spoken!

I feel the same way about Britney, R8

"There is no point living without him. Everything I touch, I ruin. I only stayed for him. And now he's gone. I've destroyed my family. My kids don't want to know me."

And she's STILL making it all about her.

R3 Do you know her personally?

R12 Her kids are her. She is taking blame. Her son just killed himself. I don’t understand the accusation here.

She also said that her deceased son was the only who loved her... And then she took it back.

Obviously her posts are a cry for help and reflect her mental illness, but she has a history of going on SM during a family crisis. Her other children may want to grieve privately, and not have their dysfunctional relationship with their mother broadcast on Twitter. Hope she can get the help she needs, and turns off her phone for the good of herself and her kids.

Not much joy to be found in anything Larkin, R6. Not much joy to be found in anything O’Connor either.

If there's even one hearfelt and consoling fan left on earth to respond to her self-pitying attention whoring, she will not End It All.

Narcissists don't off themselves.

Who could have seen this coming?

How many children does she have remaining?

She does seem to be making her son's death about herself instead of his memory.

Three (of four).

I feel for her.

I also think social media is a drug and certain people would be much better off cutting the cord. She is one of them.

Her public may be all she has.

Like Courtney Love, I'm sure she's a narcissist and impossible to cope with for any length of time.

But the abuse both endured as children broke them, and I try to refrain from judgement.

"Her public" does not constitute meaningful, OFFLINE relationships.

Her brother is a novelist, I think. Or maybe he writes non-fiction.

Be strong, Sinead. At least all the songs you touched and sang were awe-inspiring. You made some cover versions even better. Please do not listen to old, bitter, unsympathetic fat farts, they don't empathize with you.

oh Sinéad O’Connor we love you get up

She's vile, she needs to DIE already but of course she won't. She's too much of a narcissist to do the deed.

R30 Fuck off, narcissism troll. There is no such thing.

Who else thinks R30 is a fat cunt that hasn't seen his clit sized cock for years?

Why is she dressed like a villain from Star Trek?

I miss those times when her music was coming out, I Am Stretched on Your Grave, Black Boys on Mopeds. I really felt her voice and those songs deeply.

If anyone is interested, try listening to the Am I Not Your Girl, which is full of standards. Amazingly nice.

I wish her some luck and peace.

Any sane person would get the fuck off Twitter at such a time.

So one on the other thread said she was going to commit suicide Live on Twitter, but I didn’t know Twitter had a live streaming component? Would Instagram make more sense, or TikTok?

Always amazes how people are SOOOO distraught, suicidal, yet somehow they can drag themselves to their computer & post shit on line.

When I',m distraught the last thing I can do is post shit on line. But that's just me & the people I hang with. Usually after we are able to get out from under the duvet, we make it to the phone & call a real live person, so we can hear a real voice & get some non-bs enabling advice. Maybe that's why a few of us have stayed somewhat sane & happy while living in this, 'mortal coil'

Who has custody of her youngest son?

She needs to reach out to the Church for help and comfort.

[quote] There is no point living without him. Everything I touch, I ruin. I only stayed for him.

Jesus Christ, what a crushing manipulative burden to place on your CHILD (anyone, really!). That’s fucking sick. No wonder he wanted out.

[Quote] Who has custody of her youngest son?

Her oldest son.

R14, it wasn't an accusation, just stating the facts. I think she was (maybe still is) a great artist, and clearly a deeply troubled soul. But she's using his tragedy to magnify her own misery on fucking social media. The death of one's child shouldn't be used as a melodramatic bid for attention.

She's not wrong. Just let her go already.

R40 If she's not already suicidal, that'll definitely send her over the edge.

Can I have her stuff?

The rest of OP’s article:

[quote] People magazine reports the mourning mother tweeted on Thursday, "There is no point living without him. Everything I touch, I ruin. I only stayed for him. And now he's gone. I've destroyed my family. My kids don't want to know me." The “Nothing Compares 2 U” singer followed up, saying she was headed to the hospital. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. I am with cops now on way to hospital." Sinéad continued, "I'm sorry I upset everyone. I am lost without my kid and I hate myself. Hospital will help a while. But I'm going to find Shane. This is just a delay." The tweets have since been taken down.

This public suicide-baiting is disgusting.

Why is she dressed in the OP's photo like she belongs to the Bene Gesserit?

Yet again, she turns it into all about her. Her kids don’t want to know HER. They’ve hurt HER. BPD.

She’s a totally fucked up person. There’s no going back. You can’t cute mentally ill people.

She's someone who never should have had children--it was incredibly selfish of her to have them given how messed-up she is.

I remember her rageposting all over Facebook a few years back. Slamming her kids, her exes, everyone. Obsessing about her hysterectomy. She seems unhinged.

Back when I was a fan, I couldn't stand watching her in interviews. Her persona was grating, with a smug coyness that seemed false and self-serving. Incredible voice, though.

I wonder if she will trans out?

She tattooed her face.

[quite] it wasn't an accusation, just stating the facts. I think she was (maybe still is) a great artist, and clearly a deeply troubled soul. But she's using his tragedy to magnify her own misery on fucking social media. The death of one's child shouldn't be used as a melodramatic bid for attention.

MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

R52 "seems unhinged"?

Her poor children. Mother monster.

Shane's dad

So sad.

Sinead, you look absolutely marvelous, honestly!

Some states sterilized some women who were afflicted with serious mental illness & were hospitalized for long periods of time, thru the 1950's. Never really sure how I feel about this when stuff like Sinead comes up.

Her kids sure didn't sign up for the shit sandwiches she made for them on the regular. The little horror vignettes we get to see are the tip of the iceberg.

So she has multiple children but wants to kill herself because she was only living for the one that died? She makes it really hard to root for her against DL vitriol.

Bump

What a slut! She had four children by four different men.

How’s the old slag doing these days?

Somebody should tell this dame to count her blessings.

Schinead's schon's schuchide? Schit!

Get well. She's a brilliant artist. Love her.

And never forget. Name one starlet today who would be so brave.
