Thanks for the info that the report he was on Fanapt, a drug indicated for schizophrenia, was not reliable.
I still assume he was on a drug for his psychological problems, because that is so common today.
Like you, I would be very surprised if he had not been on one.
I had the impression over the weekend that the CT state police would make some announcements here at the first of the week. If they have, I have missed it.
I think there is a strong case for your thinking. I am not seeing much information about Adam's mental situation forthcoming about this case because of the potential lawsuits against the psychiatrist, if there was one, handling Adam's mental problems. I think there was, in my opinion.
Now, I can only speculate. I can imagine a kid addicted to video games with an ideal situation: A basement all to his own. He can hole himself up for months playing these games and not taking care of any responsibilities for himself. This may have troubled his mother, Nancy Lanza to no end. Adam may have added to the dynamics with statements of disrespect. The dynamics of this were volatile.
Suppose Adam was living like a pig, throwing everything around and not doing what he was asked and giving his mother psychological assault (this is the ultimate in selfish behavior). He was expecting a long life freeloading off his mother with no contribution to her life. Then, to top this off, his mother finds out he was not taking his medication. Perhaps he thinks the medication hurts his gamer performance. So, Nancy takes him to the therapist and reveals her frustration and his behavior. The therapist recommends institutionalization. In Adam's mind, this would take him from his ideal life of video games and living like a pig to virtual incarceration. Nancy tells him of his options and he decides that if he can't have his life, she can't either. Nancy is murdered in her bed; which is just the thing she bought all those weapons to protect herself against. I am sure that Adam saw the irony too. The thoughts of this are enough to make me hurl.
Then this twisted freak decides that the public also needs to pay the consequences. If he can't have the good life, then little innocents don't deserve theirs either. Society will pay with his ultimate statement. His evil statement is to show our culture what happens when it decides to take away his video games. This is the logic of a true psychopath.
I know this is all speculation, but I know the gamer culture which feeds into the human fault of selfishness.
