“Veronica was, self-centered, grandiose, arrogant, condescending, impulsive, irresponsible, cold, callous, vindictive, petty, manipulative, deceptive, cynical, sensation seeking, materialistic, hedonistic, insensitive, opportunistic, shallow, greedy, and sadistic”
I believe we just witnessed Dr. Grande “going off” 😂👍🏻
He paints a very specific picture 😆
… in addition, she falsely believed she was special and had a massive sens of entitlement 😂
He seemed very angry.
Do not hold back……
I'm beginning to think that this is the cold fact of the reality of the "American Dream" the I'm nothing more than an oyster mass delusional thinking in my part of the US anyway.
It's hard watching/listening to cases involving the murder of children. 😢
It is upsetting, for sure
And in this case, I really see no way in which it could have been prevented - no early warning signs disregarded, no safety mechanism neglected - it happened more or less out of the blue. Truly horrible. I hope she has nightmares of her daughters every single night!
True! I feel it’s not good for us… what if it was your family member, would you like $$$k people watching for entertainment and money being made off of it?
😢....and/or against the elderly
Bro married an Argentinian sex worker
What an absolute psychopath.
No more abortions
She has ptsd not aspd, so no
What's the deal with psychopathy anyway?
@@shahidmiah6941 Since when does PTSD cause you to murder your children?
@@berkslaw Psychopathy in women is different than men. Men will generally target their victims directly with overt aggression.
Psychopathic women are more likely to attack you indirectly. Notice how Veronica bought the Glock pistol & rather than just use it against Ron directly, that she made very clear that she hated, she instead used relational aggression by harming their daughters to get at him. Psychopathic women have little to no empathy or remorse, that's why she could commit those horrific acts & still claim that she is a good mother. Female psychopaths are also masters at playing the victim card. Veronica accused her husband of abuse & financially neglecting her & their daughters but it was always proven with evidence that he was never guilty of either to those things.
She hated him because he was a good and decent person with professional achievements, something she would never be/have.
"I don't want to die, please help me" Can you imagine that feeling, the anguish?? poor baby :'(
Sickening. Mental illness doesn't send you an invite in the mail just wish I didn't have to involve someone dying
@@LevMyshkin1970 Really?! Here?!
@@bradlloyd6261yes
That poor child.
Yup, more than once, too. 🙄@@bradlloyd6261
I know the husband was trying to do his best for his kids but dude he needed to leave ASAP after she cheated
Yup, when people show you who they are, believe them.
Especially after she cheated a second time.
She was violent and tried to get him court martialed and jailed with false allegations. He would have lost his kids.
@@jbjacobs9514 and his career as well
it's unfortunate that making false allegations isn't treated like a real crime, otherwise she would be locked up and the kids would be safe.
She discovered that she couldn’t also gaslight a jury and a judge.
Boy. He really put up with a LOT of bull. Way too much. Veronica was unquestionably deeply damaged but there’s no excuse for killing children, especially your own. What a mess!
On the other hand, she's gorgeous, so...
No more abortions
@@LevMyshkin1970 mind your business.
@@derkeheath5172…so next sure victim of somebody like her is 100% you or your family, so…
Honestly I lowkey also hold him accountable for not protecting his children. She’s CLEARLY unstable and it seems he was more interested in having a “hot” wife than care about how she would be as a parent. I saw this a lot when I worked at a high end daycare. These men will procreate with women for their looks and they don’t care at ALL about how they parent their children. It’s all about their ego and having arm candy 🤦🏽♀️
If you catch your wife cheating or she says she wants a divorce, say "goodbye". Don't try to repair it or reconcile. It's over, kaput, finis...
I think he kept going back for the kids sake, not for her.
Don't marry single moms.
@@hydrostatic8048 That’s unfair, some of us became single mothers not by choice, are not looking for any guy to support us, and don’t use our kids as weapons. I married for a second time and my husband is and has been a wonderful bonus Dad to my children, who are all adults now. His choice entirely. Don’t tar us all with the same brush please.
It’s clear , in this case that the father cared deeply for his non-biological daughter, but didn’t have legal rights to her. Maybe don’t marry psychopaths?
@@qhluvr77"single moms not by choice"? Give me a break. That's the problem is a lot of you don't want to take accountability. That's why you bring up outliers whe the subject is broached.
But hey, I'm happy that worked out for you.
@@hydrostatic8048 especially if they're whores.
The only evil “spirit” in their home was Veronica. Rip to those little girls 😔
Hi! Someone with actual C-PTSD here. My diagnosis came from the fact that unlike with PTSD, my trauma is repeated and drawn out, mine being for over a decade. While it is classified as the more "intense" form of PTSD, it will never justify someone commiting murder, and for someone to try and say so is not only idiotic but harmful.
Thank you! I also have been formally diagnosed with C-PTSD. I appreciate you expressing that the condition is real and we’re not being dramatic. We don’t have PTSD, but that takes nothing away from the trauma endured by people who do. It’s just more complicated - I liken it to a tangled ball of string. You can only pull on an end (and deal with the emotions) for a short time before you run into a knot. Then you have to deal with that (or add it to an ever growing list). And you are 100% right - nothing justifies murdering your children. I wish you well on your journey of recovery.
I just commented the same as I know it's a new definition, but it has valid diagnostics that help therapists know how to treat you. It's not about a misery Olympics but having multiple sources of trauma across an extended timeframe, sometimes with multiple people, is going to have a different treatment plan than one incident in a lifetime. Both can result in PTSD (also acute and chronic), but they're different diagnostics.
And neither should be used to justify murder. This mom just sucks.
@@lauren9667 Agree. Just like doctors use different distinctions to treat you, therapists do as well. It's a bit silly as someone with say pneumonia wouldn't call someone with double pneumonia dramatic. 😂 It's literally just treatment criteria to know how to help you.
Good luck on your journey. ♥️
I like Dr. Grande but he's a teacher (or was) and does not practice so therefore may not be up on the latest psychological manifestations.
Amen
That oldest daughter was a fighter. God bless both of them.
Another case of one parent taking the lives of their children to hurt the other.
No More abortions
Why is it mostly women though?
It is an old phenomenon. Several thousand years ago Euripides wrote Medea.
@@pajeetsingh It's mostly MEN, dude.
@@wmdkitty Nope, Dr. Grande has even commented on this before. Women are more likely to kill their children with intent to hurt their partner. Men are more likely to kill their partner.
Some people are just pure evil and they derive pleasure from hurting others. There is no mental illness or complex explanation for what they do. It's just who they are. She is one of those people.
Ronald was a saint for putting up with her. She sounds awful. He must have really loved her. Poor little children and father 😢
Edit: ugh! I looked the case up. Her oldest daughter called the police after she was shot. Horrifically she knew it was her own mother that was killing her. It didn’t sound super quick
“They weren’t the most important thing to me, they were my life. They were all I cared about. She took that from me and I’ll never get them back.” Ronald Youngblood.
He stated that he didn’t put it past her to harm him, but never thought she would harm the children.😢
Can't forget even in this story the court would believe the wife's story, but at least this one when the man had overwhelming evidence to the contrary they took the husband's side.
No more abortions
Wow. Heartbroken
He was a SAP!!!!
Maybe he loved her very much, or maybe he just tolerated her crappy behavior for the benefit of receiving professional-grade bedroom-skills.
So I have been diagnosed with CPTSD from a psychiatrist after my disclosure of severe childhood trauma to my therapist. I was told that complex PTSD is different than PTSD as PTSD is typically a singular event or singular episode such as a plane crash or serving in the military, whereas complex PTSD often comes from childhood abuse, resulting in trauma that has Shaped the child in a way that they don’t know their authentic self because they always had to be on guard for incoming abuse. There may not be a diagnosis in the DSM 5 for CPTSD currently but I’m positive it will only be a matter of time until it is included as its own diagnosis.
Thank you for that.
The diagnosis IS in the ICD, though.
Totally agree. We are still learning so much about trauma and the nervous system. Just because it isn’t in the DSM yet doesn’t mean it isn’t legitimate.
It’s completely logical to consider that a single traumatic event (a plane crash, for example) is going to affect someone with PTSD differently than someone that, say, has been in 10 plane crashes.
Same for an adult that undergoes trauma as an adult vs a child that undergoes trauma as a child.
Low level chronic trauma interspersed with high level traumatic events throughout childhood is definitely going to manifest differently in the nervous system than a single serious traumatic event in childhood.
There’s so much more to learn so we can help people heal. Sometimes Dr Grande shows that intellectual elitist attitude that he harbors just a little too much of, even though I like the guy a lot, it’s definitely a flaw he has.
@@lostandfound5145 He definitely has his blind spots. There's this funny thing going on where he consistently uses the word "titled" instead of the correct "entitled" (as in "an essay entitled") and pronouncing "laundromat" as "laundry-mat"
@@cebruthius he did spend a lot of time in NJ, apparently 😂 maybe he needs extra grace 😂
I just watched the new episode of “Evil Lives Here” in which the husband tells his story. Heartbreaking.
I can't imagine a worse torture than what Veronica did to those kids to harm her husband.
Ya I realize that after every episode it's covered on this channel like he's watching the show too haha
This happened right across the street from me. It was a horrible day, and i will never forget it.
Poor girls. They deserved so much better.
The cops snagged her in record time.
How awful
Did you witness abnormal behavior from the mother?
Dr. Grande showing anger. A first. He is not a humanoid lizard after all.
That's not flatness; it's professionalism. Dr Grande's poised calm demeanor is a breathe of fresh air on a platform of TH-cam drama.
He’s probably high functioning Aspergers
Relationships based on lust never end well.
Thank you. But you're not supposed to say that, right? Dudes fall for this stuff constantly and nobody wants to call them out for it.
There's nothing wrong with being physically attracted to your partner
@@celeca7but there is something wrong with lust being all that you have to fuel your relationship .. a relationship actually takes more than that ..
@@winehousted90 I agree. But there was obviously more than that in this instance. If he was only with her for her looks, he wouldn't have put up with that much crap and tried to keep it together. He genuinely loved her
Those poor children. Just heartbreaking beyond words
That's so sad and utterly unnecessary. That is so Chris Watts kind of behaviour beyond understandable in any way.
Nasty, spiteful, and selfish woman. She wanted to hurt her husband and she succeeded. It boggles my mind that she used her babies who loved and trusted her in order to do so. Makes me doubt as to whether she actually had any capacity for genuine love. I can’t help but think that the answer to that is no.
probably not. most likely she was lying the entire time
She is one of the cruelest people I've heard about on this show. Her existence depended on destroying her husband (and children),
She had zero ability to love. Zero.
So sad to have a parent like her.
No more abortions
Never date a sex worker. I've never met one who was stable.
They should list that under it's own mental health category.
I never met one who didn't charge.
@@adotintheshark4848in the end he payed for it
@@adotintheshark4848 you always pay one way or another. For any female.
@@TlD-dg6ug even if you marry them (or especially)
she 100% believed she will get away with it....pure evil woman!
Sadly, she stood more of a chance of getting away with it than she should have..
Married a sex worker...who would have thought that was a bad idea...?
not michael dippolito 😅
I counted 22 undesirable personality characteristics.
Pretty much a full house in toxic personality poker.
I don't think Ronald knew what he was dealing with.
she is a evil actress
Thinking with the little head always leads to ruin.
😂😂@@mangore623
I feel Dr. Grande showered and scrubbed himself at least 3x after posting this video. His disgust for the female shines through- the first case I've ever watched him reacting this way. The absolute evilness of this floors me. Thank you, Dr. Grande.
It's probably not exactly good for Dr. G to thrawl through these disturbing cases on a daily basis.
She's right up there with Chris Watts, Chris Coleman and all the other family annihilators. It's hard to comprehend that level of evil exists and walks among us.
Who has a relationship with someone like that?? So sad about the children.
A few men and thousands of women.
The art of Jezebel seduction. Dudes fall for it constantly
@@diannew6066HA!! Good one!!
Dr Grande: a calm, logical voice in a world full of hysterical utterances
Would love to know the mitigating circumstances that resulted in a mere 36 years for the premeditated murder of a child.
Yeah, that’s ridiculous
She got that times 2. 78 yrs total
@@janeoleary8454 Correct - 36 years per life stolen.
I do not have words to express how sick I am of women being given lenient sentences for murdering their own children. "Compassion" and "empathy" and excuses for these selfish, violent women is not compassion at all. This "compassion" is actually brutality and callousness and indifference to the child victims--utter contempt for their lives and contempt for justice.
Veronica has the look of crazy in her eyes
It's not a good idea.Guys to marry a sex worker or stripper and think that you're gonna change them
Mm no, this isn't the place to bash sex workers. They aren't horrible people just because they work a job that's taboo.
@@user-hj8vc2ix7pI agree 100 percent.
@@user-hj8vc2ix7p He never said sex workers are horrible people. He said it's not a good idea to marry one. You don't have to think someone is horrible in order to not want to marry them. 🤷
A different channel reported the husband started off as her client and then eventually they started dating.
being a sex worker to make ends meet changes a person. It drives them over the edge and they perfect the art of being manipulative.
Speaking of superstition, this one recalls Medea from Greek mythology who kills her children to spite her husband.
I have CPTSD, and I can't even fathom the thought of yelling at my child, let alone killing her. This is heartbreaking 💔
Okey dokey
@festina_lente7655 Boomer you get your feelings hurt because your orange victim isn't in office. Take a seat.
You must've not watched the video. He said CPTSD isn't real. Only PTSD is real. Seems like C was put in front of PTSD by unhinged attention seeking liberals.
It's unfortunate that Dr. Grande isn't informed on CPTSD. This woman using it as a cynical excuse for her crimes is terrible.
Grande (or someone, but who else?) removed a post in which I told him he was wrong, and gave the ICD Code and description. He’s a jerk for sure if he removed that post. Here’s the important part of what I posted from the ICD:
“6B41 Complex post traumatic stress disorder
Description
Complex post traumatic stress disorder (Complex PTSD) is a disorder that may develop following exposure to an event or series of events of an extremely threatening or horrific nature, most commonly prolonged or repetitive events from which escape is difficult or impossible (e.g. torture, slavery, genocide campaigns, prolonged domestic violence, repeated childhood sexual or physical abuse). All diagnostic requirements for PTSD are met. In addition, Complex PTSD is characterised by severe and persistent 1) problems in affect regulation; 2) beliefs about oneself as diminished, defeated or worthless, accompanied by feelings of shame, guilt or failure related to the traumatic event; and 3) difficulties in sustaining relationships and in feeling close to others. These symptoms cause significant impairment in personal, family, social, educational, occupational or other important areas of functioning.”
I left out the lengthy diagnostic criteria, but since you now have the ICD number, you can Google the whole thing. Peace, peace, peace.
I’m sorry, I usually nod my head in agreement with you, Dr. Grande, but I can’t let this slide. I have been diagnosed complex PTSD by a licensed mental health provider with extensive training in treating trauma. I’m not trying to make it more dramatic. I’d do anything not to have it. For the other viewers, no one with CPTSD would ever call PTSD “simple”. It is not simple. It’s a horrible thing to go through and I wouldn’t trade CPTSD for PTSD. CPTSD has all the symptoms of PTSD along with emotional disregulation, problems maintaining relationships and a messed up sense of self. Maybe calling it complex PTSD is a mistake because it minimizes the trauma of both types of sufferers.
Veronica Youngblood may well have CPTSD, I’m not a psychologist, so take this for what it’s worth: She never learned how to create healthy relationships. Being abandoned would definitely cause a messed up sense of self. She was a sex worker, so that reinforced the pattern of bad relationships and a negative sense of self. The affairs and the “on again off again” divorce are excellent examples of emotional disregulation.
What never comes up in CPTSD discussions is violence. She may have CPTSD, but she’s also a cold blooded killer. The diagnosis does not give her a pass for all the horrible things she did to her husband and ultimately her children. There’s a reason the insanity plea rarely works and that’s because there are so few people with mental health disorders that are not conscious of right and wrong. May she rot in prison for what she did to those beautiful girls.
Thank you for your excellent explanation of C-PTSD and how it makes sense that Veronica would have acquired it. Agree, of course that suffering from PTSD in any form does not excuse cold-blooded premeditated murder.

Thanks Dr. Grande! Could you please do the Bibi Lee case? She was a UC Berkeley student murdered in 1984. She deserves to be remembered. ❤
That was sooo heartbreaking, I'm a mother and grandmother, cases involving children are specially hard for me. Evil to the core.
Always grateful for your analysis, Dr. Grande!
Just imagining all that Sharon had been thru, before her mom met her step dad… and then to finally find stability, a father figure and a little sister, just wow. This poor girl.
Thanks Dr Grande for another extremely interesting case and analisis.
Just to point out that, since 2018, there is an official diagnosis called "complex PTSD", in the ICD -11 (the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11), by the World Health Organization (WHO) (but not in the DSM -from USA-)

I don't think he knew about her sex work or her childhood. She was very different during early years of his relationship.
Don't get involved with men with baggage either.
EXACTLY, but most ♂️ love the easy wild 😻
@@diannew6066Amen
And what about someone's job makes them a terrible person? She was evil, it had nothing to do with her being a sex worker.
"Consecutively" is a word that I love to hear in these stories. I feel so sorry for the children and for Ronald, a good man horribly ensnared by such evil. This comment was edited in order to comply with fascist YT policy.
Those poor babies.
R.I.P. Sharon & Brooklyn
I agree with you Dr. Grande - I feel so sad and sorry for the girls, and for Ronald, her husband. When we choose someone as a spouse - it is one of, if not the very most important choices we make in our life. Sadly, it seems in our current culture - people don't seem to take it seriously and many times live to be sorry for that. I pray wherever Ronald is - he finds peace, healing, and true love.
I have "complex ptsd" and it is very similar symptoms to borderline personality disorder, but you can pinpoint the cause to usually an abusive household. I just have to say that just because someone says they have cptsd doesn't mean they are trying to sound like their ptsd is more traumatic or special. It actually is a lot different than regular ptsd as it shapes your entire personality, view of others, and view of yourself. Just had to chime in. This mom is obviously in the wrong and evil
When I first started my mental health journey after accepting that I was in a DV situation and coming to terms with my DV upbringing I remember Dr Google making me worry that I had BPD, too!
I finally got into proper therapy and learned that I had cPTSD and started healing.
I’ve never seen anyone say it’s similar to BPD before, but I just wanted to comment that I also had this thought about myself and what I was experiencing.
@lostandfound5145 I was confused about which one I had as well and my therapist told me it doesn't really matter which one you say because they're the same symptoms and to focus on getting better rather than "which one is it" because I obsessed over it for like 6 months

I am a new mommy and don’t know how anyone could do this. It is infuriating and heartbreaking! Thank you for your analysis and bringing awareness to these issues involving innocent lives, Dr. G. 💔
She was definitely Crazy
No, she was evil. She knew what she was doing. Even before she murdered her kids she made their lives hell with all her drama, cheating and moving their dad in and out of the house. Poor kids 😢
Why must people adamantly object to the presence of mental disorders in these cases?
A case that notes mental disorder is not done so to excuse the perpetrator, nor to vilify those with similar disorders but to understand all contributing factors to their motivations (however twisted) and thereby prevent future occurrences.
@@attaxiaffxi7033 indeed. I don't know why so many people fail to understand that .
@@attaxiaffxi7033 I don't care if she's mental or not. She shouldn't be free ever again.

What?
@@101zoeg Ready? There is an emphasis IN SOCIETY for people to be compassionate. EVERYONE in the world is NOT compassionate: they don't have the CAPACITY to be compassionate. SOME of us have problems with that. Compassion is not a given.

Such a sad case again. Tired of the bad childhood excuse & misusing a diagnosis 😠Great points again. Thanks Dr G😊❤❤
Dr Grande, what a good person you are.
Whoa this woman’s a nightmare
yup, i agree hank.
"The World Health Organization (WHO)'s International Statistical Classification of Diseases has included CPTSD since its eleventh revision that was published in 2018 and came into effect in 2022 (ICD-11). The previous edition (ICD-10) proposed a diagnosis of Enduring Personality Change after Catastrophic Event (EPCACE), which was an ancestor of CPTSD. Besides, Healthdirect Australia (HDA) and the British National Health Service (NHS), have also acknowledged CPTSD as a mental disorder. However, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) has not included CPTSD in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. It has nonetheless proposed: Disorders of Extreme Stress - not otherwise specified (DESNOS) since the DSM-IV, which is a mental disorder close to CPTSD".
It's disappointing and disingenuous to claim CPTSD is only used to "make PTSD sound more dramatic". It's unequivocally false. I've been diagnosed with this exact disorder, not because I wanted to be more dramatic, but because a licensed psychiatrist diagnosed me with it. But as per usual, if it doesn't exist in America, it doesn't exist at all, apparently. Don't devalue people's illnesses and diagnosis. Because of claims such as the one you made here, people genuinely suffering and diagnosed with this disorder are going to be ignored and laughed at because people are going to think they're just "trying to be dramatic", when in reality they were legitimately diagnosed by someone with FAR more qualifications than yourself and your "PhD in counselling". As someone in a mental health related field, you should be dismantling the stigma around mental illnesses, not perpetuating it. It's honestly disgusting and yet another reason I'm close to leaving this channel for good. Be better going forward.
Note: Her using CPTSD as an excuse for murdering her own children in cold blood is beyond disgusting and fucked up. I'm definitely not giving her any leeway here for that.
Well said and well done! Grande removed a similar post of mine, so watch out. Thank you, and take care.
Thank you for posting this and letting us know more about CPTSD-I didn’t know about it at all until a few months ago. I didn’t hear Dr Grande say that about the drama but if he did so, he should remake the video and leave that out!! Sounds very unprofessional.
Well presented and clearly explained. Some of these monsterous accounts are so hard to hear.
I admire the way you did your analysis... actually my first time to come across you, Dr...thanks..
Every photo of Veronica ,her eyes look manic.
She's crazy as a box of frogs.
"Why would you put my laptop in the bathtub, ffs"
"Cz it wouldn't fit in the toilet, mofo!"
I look forward to these analysis and appreciate your originality in them. I've just viewed the case of Cody's death by his father and now these sisters who were killed by their mother. These crimes against children sicken me no matter how tastefully they are addressed in the media. I sure hope that Hell is even worse than we all imagine for these sick parents.
What a cruel witch. I am so sorry for Ronald.😢
Wow. That's terrifying - a volatile and unstable sadist.
As usual, Dr. Grande’s analysis is on point. 🎯 👌
Actually, no, Grande gets a lot wrong. CPTSD IS REAL, it’s not someone trying to make their PTSD seem more than what it is as Grande states. Grande (or someone, but who else?) removed a post in which I told him he was wrong, and gave the ICD Code and description. He’s a jerk for sure if he removed that post. Here’s the important part of what I posted from the ICD:
“6B41 Complex post traumatic stress disorder
Description
Complex post traumatic stress disorder (Complex PTSD) is a disorder that may develop following exposure to an event or series of events of an extremely threatening or horrific nature, most commonly prolonged or repetitive events from which escape is difficult or impossible (e.g. torture, slavery, genocide campaigns, prolonged domestic violence, repeated childhood sexual or physical abuse). All diagnostic requirements for PTSD are met. In addition, Complex PTSD is characterised by severe and persistent 1) problems in affect regulation; 2) beliefs about oneself as diminished, defeated or worthless, accompanied by feelings of shame, guilt or failure related to the traumatic event; and 3) difficulties in sustaining relationships and in feeling close to others. These symptoms cause significant impairment in personal, family, social, educational, occupational or other important areas of functioning.”
I left out the lengthy diagnostic criteria, but since you now have the ICD number, you can Google the whole thing.
i appreciate the tone Dr. Grande has with each of the cases he covers. i had two friends pass away at the hands of their father in 2020, one of the girls had just graduated 8 days before with me. unfortunately i don’t think anyone has picked up the case to review or talk about at all and its been 4 years now. i know Dr. Grande would give my friends the respect and attention they deserve.
Firstly, love your content! Secondly, I’m not sure about where you’re located, but where I am (Australia) on a lot of our mental health documentation, we do have CPTSD as a valid diagnosis. Usually related to ongoing and traumatic experiences in childhood. It may be completely different where you’re located.
In the US we have CPTSD as a valid diagnosis as well. I think Dr Grande got a bad taste in his mouth due to all the internet cPTSD quacks that make money “coaching” without any state sanctioned education in mental health. I think it just muddied the waters for him.
Nah, he should be aware of Bessel van der Kolk

Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! Your true fans love your humor and sarcasm. May 2 is National Play Your Ukulele! Day, National Truffles Day (gotta have some Lindt Neapolitan truffles and Lindt Strawberries and Cream truffles later!), National Fire Day, World Tuna Day, Elena's Day, National Life Insurance Day, Take A Baby To Lunch Day, Robert's Rules of Order Day, Saint Zoë's Day, and Scurvy Awareness Day.
Anyone finding themselves anywhere near a person like Veronica should run for the hills. I loved your list of adjectives, Dr Grande. I couldn't agree more with your assessment of this person
Thank you, for the video.
No more abortions
11:28 “The World Health Organization (WHO)'s International Statistical Classification of Diseases has included CPTSD since its eleventh revision that was published in 2018 and came into effect in 2022 (ICD-11). The previous edition (ICD-10) proposed a diagnosis of Enduring Personality Change after Catastrophic Event (EPCACE), which was an ancestor of CPTSD.[3][2][11] Besides, Healthdirect Australia (HDA) and the British National Health Service (NHS), have also acknowledged CPTSD as mental disorder.[12][13] However, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) has not included CPTSD in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. It has nonetheless proposed: Disorders of Extreme Stress - not otherwise specified (DESNOS) since the DSM-IV, which is a mental disorder close to CPTSD.[14][2]”
Well done! Great comment. Important as well. Grande is off about a lot. Grande (or someone, but who else?) removed a post in which I told him he was wrong, and gave the ICD Code and description. He’s lacking in character if he can’t admit when he’s wrong. Here’s the important part of what I posted from the ICD:
“6B41 Complex post traumatic stress disorder

Anyway, it’s good to know people are actually paying attention and sharing good info. Bless.

Thanks Dr. Grande
So interesting. Thankyou
There is a very recent case which occured on the day of the eclipse, I hope you can analize this case.
Wow, 21 adjectives for her personality. That might be a record
I could never hate anyone more than I love my children. My heart hurts for those beautiful, innocent little girls. Not all of us are bad, but I sure wish the ones that are were never blessed with children to begin with. Children are to be treasured. There’s always another way, a better way.
You can take the girl out of the bar, but you can't take the bar out of the girl.
Ronnie is probably continuing to manipulate guards and associates in prison. Same MO just a different setting. In many regards Ronnie reminds me of the mother of my first child. Injured deeply while young and never recovering.
Her last name is really youngblood ... poetic irony or a curse?
No just his name 🙄😏😒
Nominative determinism
This episode of Evil Lives Here made me cry😢
Only way you COULD use PTSD as a defense would be if it were a situation that triggered a belief that your life was in danger. Not to stereotype, but think of a Vietnam vet who hears a car backfire and shoots someone walking nearby, temporarily feeling like he's back in a war zone.
Outside of that type of situation, PTSD has nothing to do with defending murder.
When you’re having a PTSD “flashback” you react physically to a trigger with an adrenaline dump but you’re not psychotic. You don’t actually believe you’re in a specific traumatic situation from the past.
It’s probably similar to people that have panic attacks. You’re aware of reality and your surroundings but your body acts like it’s running from a rabid bear 😂 it’s very strange.
Without compounding comorbidities it is unfathomable that a person would commit murder on an innocent person due to PTSD.
CPTSD is “more” than PTSD. However, it doesn’t cause, not is it an excuse for murder. Grande (or someone, but who else?) removed a post in which I told him he was wrong, and gave the ICD Code and description. He’s a jerk for sure if he removed that post.

PTSD feels like a hyper-vigilance. It does skirt a bit into a sort of proto paranoia/psychosis. Stupidily small things become triggering. Rustling in bushes, movement of shadows, certain smells, and particular sounds. Things that aren't there become monsters.
Such a profoundly tragic story for the husband and the children. It's so sad that evil like this can be very difficult to recognize until its too late. Ronald only was able to see how truly awful this person was after they had already committed each other to marriage and children and living situation. The intertwining of lives before knowing whether or not you fit together is what is so dangerous and so unpredictable but I suppose people cannot also date each other for 10 years waiting to see if anything insane happens. Life is hard. If you find good people keep them close!!!
Hi Dr Grande...🐈
This is so incredibly sad . Those poor , sweet girls. 😢
Hi everyone, from Fairbanks Alaska.
Hi from Cape Town South Africa
People, don't sell sex, this is a terrible idea and will ruin that part of your life.
Thank you.
When a intimate part of human life becomes a commodity, it destroys the soul. It ruins it for everyone involved.
I just watched Evil Lives Here and poor Ron was telling his story. So heartbreaking!
What was your impression of him?? Please elaborate!
Simply put what a horrible person.
What i think of when people say " every mother blah blah blah"...no not every mother cares for their kids correctly my mother came at me with a boat paddle...that was to much for me i knew that was dangerous and far from normal
Exactly, I remember having this discussion with a super conservative guy (I’m a woman). He was convinced all women should be mothers and if they didn’t they’re broken feminist stereotypes. His own mother was terrible, it was crazy to me how he overlooked that
@@sj3969all women are terrible mothers by default. They must be properly supervised by a man
Right, and furthermore, Grande got it wrong regarding CPTSD. Grande (or someone, but who else?) removed a post in which I told him he was wrong, and gave the ICD Code and description. He’s a jerk for sure if he removed that post. Here’s the important part of what I posted from the ICD:

I have C-PTSD. It’s an intense disorder and sometimes it makes me very overstimulated and overwhelmed - but it’s never made me feel violent.
C-PTSD is NOT the type of disorder that you can use for an insanity plea. 😂
Okey dokey
Translation: It’s ANOTHER BULLSH1T psycho-babble euphemism!
@@festina_lente7655what’s with you and your “okey dokey” comments? Please explain.
@@mickmcsherry5916just another hateful person who wants to shame people for being vulnerable and ok with themselves because they’re unable to achieve that sort of strength themselves.
I’m not diagnosing anyone, just speculating on what could be happening in a situation like this 😂
@@lostandfound5145 It's called invalidation and a sign of psychopathology in a person who employs this tactic consistently.
These stories involving innocent children hurt my heart to its core ! It's the worst ! SIck, evil people are one thing...but to inflict that evil on not just an innocent child...but especially one they brought into this world...is beyond reproach !! Sad world man !!!! 😢
Hi Dr.Grande I hope all is well can you please take a look at the Katherine deaguasvivas murder case thank you
12:25 "Veronica was self-sentered, grandiose, arrogant, condecending, impulsive, irresponsible, cold, callous, vindictive, petty, manipulative, cynical, sensationseeking, materialistic, hedonistic, insensitive, opportunistic, shallow, greedy and sadistic."
Seems she had some issues.
No more abortions
I was wondering how much more traits he'd keep listing of this horrible mother. RIP to the children.
She certainly sounds like a malignant narcissist or psychopath. Bad news...
Interesting on the CPTSD diagnosis. Ive wondered about that from a technical sense as it's an emergent term, but PTSD is already such a spectrum and we have chronic and acute distinctions. But, as the complex label was explained to me at least, I can see where it's useful to denote PTSD that comes from a variety of sources, usually over a longer timeframe. This can help guide therapists when doing EMDR and considering other treatments. A common example would be ongoing child abuse vs one traumatic incident. It's not meant to be misused as the trauma Olympics but can be helpful in unpacking the trauma and knowing what points you'll need ti review in therapy (i.e. one incident vs many, one incident with one offender vs many with different people).
Anyways, yeh, it definitely doesn't make you a murderous bitch though. She sucks.
