- The following comment came in response to the post of the rape allegation (posted on the Blog https://www.monadaniella.com/blog/rape-allegation-against-dr-owen-muir-from-a-former-amherst-student) from a woman who studied in Amherst when Dr. Owen Scott Muir did. She alleged, and is willing to testify that Dr. Owen Scott Muir allegedly raped her. After this reply comment from IP address 66.108.28.27 was posted the alleged victim posted a new comment with more specific details. As an aside who would reply like this? This person seems to know Dr. Owen Scott Muir. intimately... An important question: if the rape allegation, "all of the details are fake" as claimed in this comment, why did Dr. Owen Scott Muir send an attorney/mediator to contact the alleged victim's friend about "Restorative Justice" (which can never be applied to sex crimes)? - The comment below came after we filed the Negligence and Malpractice lawsuit against Drs. Carlene MacMillan and Owen Scott Muir. We replied to it in the blog on 10/13/2016 (https://www.monadaniella.com/blog/8162764) . Excerpt: "No, anonymous friend. In my heart of hearts I do not know that. Neither do you. You have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA about what went on. You have no idea about how Dr. Owen Muir aka Dr. Scott Muir "lost it" (in Mona's own words). You have no idea about the needless and senseless suffering that Mona went through in their hands. If Mona cared deeply about Dr. Owen Muir aka Dr. Scott Muir she would not have wanted to change psychiatrists so badly. Mona would not have told her dad she wanted to stop working with Dr. Owen Scott Muir. Mona would not have left the negative review about Dr. Owen Scott Muir in Yelp. Mona would not have sent an email to Dr. Rebecca Berry, her OCD therapist about not wanting to work with Dr. Owen Scott Muir one week to the date and almost to the hour before she hanged herself..(Screenshot below Dr. Owen Scott Muir's SMS exchange with Mona, copy and pasted underneath) Mona would not have written to Dr. Rebecca Berry " I don’t really trust them. It’s so hard for me to work with him and not to be afraid of him. Therapists aren't supposed to use your weaknesses against you. Lately I feel like I am irreversibly going backward and I don’t know how to stop. I feel so hopeless."." Take a look at the screenshot below the comment: it is from the SMS exchange between Dr. Owen Muir aka Dr. Scott Muir and Mona. In that SMS exchange Mona clearly stated she did "not think she could do this anymore". She wrote about how Dr. Owen Scott Muir got really, really angry. It was scary. [He] pretty much lost it. This is not the first time Mona wrote in a text to both husband and wife that Dr. Owen Scott Muir had lost it. This is mild compared to other screenshots. Mona sent multiple times texts, emails to both doctors saying she no longer wanted to see Dr. Owen Scott Muir. She told her dad, Alan that she wanted to see another doctor. Whoever posted the comment below, in their hearts of hearts knows their comment is the furthest thing from the truth. Begin forwarded message:
From: [email protected] Subject: I miss you Date: September 19, 2016 at 7:49:51 PM EDT To: Rebecca Berry <[email protected]> Hi Dr. Berry, I miss you so much. I hope you are having a nice time with Tripp (Trip?). Everything is terrible without you. Dr. Muir and I aren't seeing each other anymore because he's awful, he has started seeing one of my friends, and I lose it every time we see each other. I still see Dr. Macmillan, but I don't feel connected to her. I talk to her because I have no one else, but I don't know. I don't want to drown alone so I take whatever hand is reaching out towards me. Everything was better when you were here. I am really overwhelmed, I am such a mess. I went to a rooftop for the second time since you left because I felt really hopeless and I was so angry Dr. Muir and his threats felt too stressful. Last time happened because I got cavities and was afraid of the fillings. I am falling apart again. I feel like I'm going to end up back in the hospital. I wish you were here. Dr. Macmillan doesn't want me to see a psychiatrist besides her if I won't see her husband, dr. Muir, but I don't like that I see two people who are so close to each other. I feel like it clouds their thinking. Also Dr. Muir wants me taking zyprexa again because I'm so "agitated," but zyprexa causes diabetes. Also maybe I wouldn't be so agitated if my psychiatrist didn't threaten me all the time to call the police and charge me for assaulting and let me to rot in Bellevue which he knows it’s my biggest fear. He said he would leave me there. He used our fucked up mental health system to get back at me. He said he wouldn’t call to get me out. He knows it’s my biggest fear, that’s where criminals go.He threatens to call the police all the time. He screams for no reason, I get startled and then really anxious. It’s not okay to tell people that they’re going to be left alone in a scary psych hospital. He knows no one would listen to me. It’s not okay to invade my personal space and block the bathroom door from being closed and then threaten to call the police to claim that I assaulted him by trying to push the door closed. Maybe I wouldn’t be so agitated if he didn’t lie to me, terrorize me, tell me that I don't shut my mouth in therapy and that lose it when he said it was fine that I didn't want to work with him, but that if he decided not to work with me, I'd be clamoring to see him. Dr. Muir is dangerous. His anger isn’t normal, it’s dangerous. It’s scary. I have never felt that unsafe with a therapist. People who are angry act in unpredictable ways. Most of the time I have to run and lock myself in the bathroom. He calms down only after I text his wife from the bathroom, and then I have to run out from his office. He tries to break in, he pushes the door, I have to lean against the door. I can’t stay around when he loses it. Even Dr. Macmillan wrote (in a text) “I can see he is angry. More so than usual” and she agreed that that wasn't nice. Something is wrong with him. This isn’t normal. He lacks all empathy when he gets really mad. Like it’s almost sociopathic, except there are some times he’s not like that. Maybe’s he’s borderline. I don’t know. It really doesn’t matter anyway, I don’t have to put up with him. I feel sorry for Dr. MacMillan and their kids, the day he gets pissed off enough to emulate his dad. Dr. MacMillan said he has anger management issues, and they became worse since the twins were born because they cry all night. She said his father beat him up, he wasn’t nice to him. His anger is dangerous. His anger isn’t normal, it’s dangerous. Therapists aren’t supposed to lose it like that. Staff members have. I’ve seen staff this mad. And it has always ended badly. People in power who get this angry are dangerous. I don’t want him on my team anymore. He doesn’t understand me and he doesn’t know how to help me. I refuse to see him again, but Dr. MacMillan will quit if I won’t continue to see her husband. That’s pretty fucked up, but whatever. I feel like I don’t matter anymore. It’s a bad situation. I feel so alone in this world. Finally my life was getting better, I don’t look like a mental patient anymore since the right diagnosis and now it’s a disaster. I don’t want to go back to a hospital. She knows he makes me worse and doesn’t care how he impacts me. He said I will want him if he quits. So he quit. I don’t want him. I want a psychiatrist who cares and treats me decently. Then he unquit. Dr. MacMillan said she had nightmares from the last time. When he lost it. She sent a text "it’s been very unsettling and then what happen with Owen that day was very jarring. And I wasn’t even there". But she’ll quit if I don’t work with him. Their babies have swimming lessons and someone needs to pay for that. I don’t really trust them. It’s so hard for me to work with him and not to be afraid of him. Therapists aren't supposed to use your weaknesses against you. Lately I feel like I am irreversibly going backward and I don’t know how to stop. I feel so hopeless. Anyway, it doesn't matter because I will probably die before you come back. I can feel it coming. I might take all my clomipramine. I would rather jump off a building, but it's really scary to climb over the sides and actually jump. A girl from group lives in a group home kind of place where one of the girls overdosed on heroin last week. I wish that girl was me. Except that she violated the suicide rules by doing it in a way where her roommates could find her. She didn't leave signs on the door or anything. Again, I don't want to drown alone so I take whatever hand is reaching out towards me. I really miss you so much. I wish you were here. Things would be different. I need help. The saddest thing to realize is that no one really hears you until it’s too late, you can be screaming and crying but it isn’t until you're dead silent in the ground people listen. Mona
