So is this an RIP thread or a platform for mental illness, bullying or people who don't show enough empathy? Or Miss Dawsons legacy????? Whatever that may be, like I really cannot mention the s word.

This poor unfortunate woman is not interred yet but her "legacy" is being deemed on here. Surely her family have the

right to deem a legacy, not someone on social media because they know about mental problems.

The thread is titled "Charlotte Dawson's Legacy" - so unless we are supposed to be discussing the contents of her wil,l I would assume it is about considering what part her premature death may play in promoting a deeper understanding of mental illness, personal demons, cyber bullying and other issues on which she spoke out during her life..

Charlotte's Sister Vicky (from the opening post)

“Charlotte was a beautiful person physically, but she also had a beautiful soul. She was kind, loving and generous,” Vicky said.

“She was a kind, loving and generous person and worked tirelessly for the causes she believed in.

Time will tell if her death has a long lasting legacy or if the general public will move on without giving those with mental illness a second thought - until the next celebrity with a mental illness dies.

Those who live with, or has a loved one with, a mental illness do not have that luxury.

Thankyou TGSE, You explained it well.I hope that you have succeeded where I seem to have continually failed .

izabsmiling · ‎24-02-2014

when it can be openly discussed without a need to fight in order to do so....then I think some progress has been made ?

bluecat*dancing · ‎24-02-2014

Does anyone want me to start a thread to discuss mental illness etc rather than focusing on one particulat celeb?
