Phill Thomas - The Bac Man
A woman, Cowgal, committed suicide last spring. She was taking baclofen, and many other things. She had been suicidal before taking baclofen, and the other things she was prescribed. She had personal communication with Phill, and many other people here. Apparently his ex-wife sent her a very nasty email from his email address purporting to be him, just prior to her suicide. Much of the relevant information can be found here:

I am quite sure that I do not have the "full story." I am quite sure that no one here has the full story. Why do I think that? Because I communicated with Phill for a month or two last year when I was fraught and could not find help or solace here at MWO. He had NO IDEA that Cowgal passed away.
Enough already. Enough secrecy, gossip, intrigue and blame. A woman is dead because she suffered from the same disease we all have. Placing blame, particularly when there is so much information that is shrouded in intense emotional pain, and unnecessary secrecy, is cruel and malicious. To her memory and to anyone caught up in it.
Once again, we here in the meds threads can look to people who do not regularly participate in the meds threads at the center of a maelstrom. And you, Otter.
I will ask those of you who participate the same question I ask myself when I return here and find myself unable to not respond: To what end? What purpose does this serve?
I can assure you that it will not serve the purpose of hindering Phill's pursuit of financial compensation for information and knowledge. It will not further humiliate him, or keep him from calling himself Dr. Baclofen.
It will continue the contentiousness that is found here in many guises. It will keep people from finding help, both here and from him. More people will die. It will, after all, hinder people's ability to find the information he compiled from here for his book.
It will also cause so much despair about the futility of this place, the meds threads in MWO, ever becoming something useful and supportive that those of us whose sole purpose is to get and give support and information that we will simply give up and leave.
Can we not just stop with all of this? Please? I don't just mean Phill. I mean all of it. I'll be the first. It's not worth the time and effort to deal with the exact same things month after month. I don't have time for socializing any more, though I miss it. And I certainly don't have time for this.
There aren't any others who are looking for information or support at the moment, just the same contingent that has been here for several months. They know to ignore this and continue with their struggle in much more productive ways. But what about everyone else? Who will be responsible for their continued despair? Not Phill, certainly.
Peace.
