I think her "awakening" was little more than a major case of depression~~ starting during her pregnancy and continuing on afterwards, not to mention being in a foreign country, her dad being seriously ill, etc~~that went perpetually untreated. Not a nice thing for her "friends" to have let her deal with quite alone, it would seem. And then try and rationalize her obvious desperation by putting the above spin on it, and any number of similar ones over the years since her death. Sal
