extract-the fake ritalin kurt cobain story
_____Read The Extract To Learn Why They Did This Fully ____
We’ve been able to debunk that the entire Ritalin story, including the armchair diagnosis of Kurt’s ADHD is false and are continuously being spun by Courtney and the Cobain family to create mythology that helps them all in the long run.
The story completely and utterly false.
⊡ Don’s Ritalin anecdote + Jenny’s [note the ableism – i.e. ‘take him off of it to deal with his problems like the rest of us’] (even though Kurt wasn’t staying with Jenny and Don by this point because it chronologically would have been too early for him because he stayed with them as a teenager (ref: Nirvana – The Biography), and there is also photographic proof, when Wendy says below that he was put on Ritalin and taken off of it between 4 and 5 years old and that Don conveniently doesn’t remember…Kurt also would have been a special needs child if Jenny’s anecdote were correct and no school nor teacher ever mentions or documented that Kurt was a special needs child..she’s lying, everyone is lying. Kurt also said, in his own words in CAYA, thathe had never met ‘a faker person’ and you can hear him mentioning that she was an ‘evil step mother’ (0:30 – 0:38) verbally in the MOH film that can be found in the released recordings. The fact that she was allowed to be in MOH solidifies all former statements. Everyone involved, and the Cobain family is a liar)
⊡ Wendy’s Ritalin/ADHD anecdotes – 1, 2, 3 [HTH] ** Also note that if you read the extract article, you’ll find NUMEROUS CASES WHERE WENDY PLANTED FALSE HEADLINES TO BENEFIT HERSELF
⊡ Courtney’s Ritalin anecdotes – 1 [ctrl/cmd + f – “ritalin”], 2 [HTH]
> The origin of Kurt being prescribed Ritalin as a child originated in Come As You Are by Michael Azzerad…which was a book where Kurt told lies about Courtney, specifically, to make her look better and look less like a gold digger. Everett True himself also outted Heavier Than Heaven, which consists of nothing BUT Kurtney myths, as fabricated. Any Kurtney story by association is almost always untrue unless supplied by an unbiased and non-influenced source. No quote or sound bite of Kurt talking about Ritalin exists.
> The Ritalin and ADHD stories are designed for Courtney to insert herself because they’re immediately associated with them ‘bonding’ or having similarities over drugs paralleled by early childhood medication. For example, after CAYA was published in 1993, the next mentions of this were in Courtney Love: The Real Story in 1998 and in HTH in 2001. The anecdotes in both of those books are heavily referenced about Kurt and Courtney as a couple and served as a foundation for Courtney’s image promotion. Finally, it should be well known that Charles Cross as been known to be a bonefide liar and embellisher for decades and has planted headlines for Courtney when asked.
> The mention of Kurt’s ADHD only originated from Cross saying that Kurt had ‘signs’ or symptoms of it and made an armchair diagnoses that relies on dangerous generalization and ableism about mental illness. He tied together anecdotes from the Cobain family about Kurt’s hyperactivity and made the assumption that ‘ADHD’ had been the cause of it, with Wendy later fabricating an anecdote about it in MOH. It’s a dangerous assumption because different disorders share symptoms and no one symptom is exclusive and it feeds into the public’s ignorance and oversimplification of mental illness. Also saying that Kurt had ADHD became highly sensationalized and in addition to Courtney’s Ritalin story, became adopted as Kurtney lore [“Ritalin”].
Collectively we’re dealing with the same people that allowed or participated in planting her fake headlines to completely rewrite his life after he was pronounced dead. We also know that Courtney was the person who came up with the idea that they were “both” given Ritalin in the first place, see above HTH2001 link. Finally, Linda Carrol herself, in all of her attempts to draw projections between her daughter and Kurt to make amends with her, never mentioned she was prescribed Ritalin. Yet Courtney, in all of her false childhood anecdotes, magically remembers that it was? Conveniently when Kurt is involved.
They’re all liars.
