For a Dear, Dear Certain Someone

[Connor]

To be honest, I think if the offender is actually (very likely to be tbh) mentally ill, making fun of him is kinda harsh.
I used to know a guy who was really quiet, pretty shy. But he suddenly developed a crush on this other guy in his class, and suddenly turned into a complete bloody psychopath ._.
Of course, after he started to get help from psychologists, he started to turn back to the guy he used to be.
While I'm not sure about how frequently, I'm sure people who get in this sort of state (confused between real and fake / obsessively chasing a person who has clearly rejected them) can be put back to normal (probably not the best way to word that )
I won't go into much more details because that's unfair on the guy involved, but the point is that even though people like this can cause a lot of stress and/or fear to the person they're stalking or w/e they're doing, remember that they probably weren't always like that. They should get the psychological help they need instead of being locked away and ridiculed.
Of course, I'm not trying to downplay the effect they have on their victims, especially in more severe cases.
