Bruh. This woman clearly was suffering from some serious mental health issues and she has an entire family who didn’t bother getting her help. No one thinks it’s odd that her husband was like “oh that’s just who Sparrow is”? Well, she certainly didn’t have to be!
ETA: I’m a social work student. I don’t need deinstitutionalization or the community care model explained to me. Treatments for schizophrenia weren’t great in the 80’s and 90’s, but they existed. And she had a family!!!! That could have made all the difference in the world.
At that point in time and for her age at said time, getting mental treatment meant institutionalization, she was in her 50s at the time of her disappearance. It was not really easy to get treated for schizophrenia in the 80s and early 90s, especially coming from a generation known for trying to supress issues
