Robin's Confession

Okay, I just watched the scene of Robin's confession to her shrink and I have to say that I knew what Robin's confession was going to be all along. "I don't want to be a mother at all." Those are strong words for her to say when she went around town asking Lucky, Jax, Nikolas, and whoever else to father her baby. I just don't get it. She wanted a baby so bad... now that she has Emma and is married, she wants nothing to do with Emma or her marriage.

That's just my opinion.

I think it's nuts, she should be greatful she has all that she does.

Imagine what would have happened to baby Emma if Patrick wasn't in her life.

Exactly, A! Emma wouldn't exist and Patrick probably wouldn't have given Robin the time of day.

There are a ton of ladies who can't have babies, that would love to have Emma.

Yeah I know. I feel sorry for Emma and Patrick now. I just can't get over that confession that Robin made.

I think they should give her electro shock therapy

ITA!

Clarity, GREAT POST!!!
I know there are a lot of people who just cannot understand PPD, they don't see it as a real condition that actually affects the way you feel & think but it does. Like I said before people cannot imagine Robin not wanting her child & although it is a soap its pretty close to how a mother w/ ppd feels. if you cannot imagine how a mother cannot want her child on PPD look back to some of the major news stories of mothers killing their children because of PPD. Children they loved and cared for before the illness. the only blame I put on Robin is not accepting her illness but I am glad she is in therapy, i just hope she is in therapy accepting her illness soon.

Personally I think Patrick is making things worse & I am about to jump off the Scrubs ship. I understand & totally get that he is going through something major as well however he does talk to Robin in a condescending tone & his talks w/ Liz is ALL about blame. He's pissed at Robin for having an illness that she didn't ask for. I'm not even talking about him talking to Carly, Sonny, liz, Matt & lainey about Robin's issue but the manner in which he talks to her even before he faced the fact that she has PPD. Dogging her for not wanting to be home w/ Emma yet he's at the hospital every minute he can get, taking on more "special" cases (Michael), going out drinking when his wife is gone & leaving his daughter w/ nurses!, etc.... He knew there was a problem and he could have put in for time off but instead he leaves Emma w/ Robin & his constant shipping of Liz as Mother Theresa is sickening. "Why can't Robin be more like you!" I'm a Liz fan but I love her for her faults not because I think she is perfect! That was the worst comment he could make & I don't care whether Robin was there to hear it or not!

I will say though I am glad that Sonny is part of this now! He truly gets how hard it is for Robin to face it & go on meds & he doesn't let her have a pity party! i loved when he told her to hurry up & get better because Emma needed her mommy!

Stacy, and C I love what you guys said and I agree with most of it. I know PPD is very real, but I don't get it. I've not personally known anyone with it. I love being a mommy and always have, so I just don't get it. I still don't see her as making an effort to get help, she's only doing it for Patrick. Patrick needs to ease up and they need a live in nanny, not a loaner nanny and a neighbor. I still love Robin and my scrubs, but they need to get it together. Baby Emma might just grow up thinking Liz is her mom.

Patrick definitely need to get a real nanny before Liz stick that knife in Robins back

Clare and Stacy...WONDERFUL posts!


I will post my comments later when I get home because I will have to paste it from Hella Good and I can't access that site here from work.

Nice posts, Stacy and Clarity. I know PPD is real and even though I'm not a mother I do agree with you on that aspect but I also agree with Adriana because Robin isn't making an effort to help Patrick raise their daughter. She's just going through the motions of being a mother and to me, that's not what Robin should be doing. Robin needs help and the sooner she gets it the sooner she can stop living in her fantasy world and start being a mother.

Adriana's right, soon Emma might start to think that Liz is her mother if Patrick doesn't hire a live in nanny and yes Patrick does needs to ease up on Robin. He needs to stop judging her.
Bottom line, Robin needs help and defying Patrick, and the doctor isn't going to make her better.
