No new tweets or Facebook entries since the spring. She is a great advocate. I am concerned with the public appearances college it got to be to much. Her our our own KingdomofRats who needs to be away after a incident with another member voices are greatly missed.

I don't know the exact story but I remember reading that somebody denied her diagnosis and a bad reaction followed.

That's really a shame about KingdomofRats....I always liked her posts, and I like Carly Fleischmann, too. Hope KoR comes back.

Have you tried reaching out to her dad, Arthur? Maybe he knows what's up?

Expressing Concern is not the same thing as prying for details. If they wanted the information public they would have made a statement. Some people even in todays social media era consider that type information very private. And that is their right.

Carly Fleischmann ‏@CarlysVoice · Dec 3
i cabnt typerc anymmyore ectt didfd thisds to meed brayiin is scrrammbellld needdc fdocttor helphgfi



From Carly's Facebook Page

This is carly's dad. all is fine. carly had ECT in march. since then she's been unable to type or go on FB. tonight has been the first words we'e heard from her since April! we're all with her and her doctor is on the case! thank you all for your kind words, prayers and concerns. this is actually a joyful time!



This makes me very angry due to very negative assumptions. Since I am not close to the situation I might be wrong. What ever the reasons for the setback I hope her tweet is the beginning the end of this setback and Carly's Voice comes makes a full comeback.

That is usually given for severe depression and it is controversial. There has been a history torturing autistics with it to try shock the Autism out of them. If I remember you are in your 50's. As many of you American baby-boomers and older may remember back in 1972, Democratic nominee for President George McGovern being forced to dump his running mate Thomas Eagleton after it was revealed he had underwent "shock treatment" for depression. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/frenzy/eagleton.htm.

Back to Fleischmann that Facebook post read like it was written by a Public relations department
