Rosemary Walten

Rosemary was an extremely caring person who could be very intimidating whenever she wanted to. If she was bothered, she would let anyone know immediately. She deeply loved her children and was very supportive and protective of them. Rosemary has seemingly been a lovable person since her early years, being the most popular kid in school in her childhood. In her early adult years, Rosemary seemed to struggle with her identity, almost like an existential crisis. She had a bad relationship with her family, going almost no contact with them, meaning she was essentially alone minus whatever friends she had. She wrote in her journal (diary) that she wished she had her own family to spend holidays with. Rosemary was an artist who seemed to struggle with her artist footing, though she figured out this aspect of herself within college. When Rose grew a family of her own, she finally seemed to be at peace. She loved her children and husband dearly, even quitting her journal for four years as she was so happy in life, she had nothing to write about. After the deaths of Edd and Molly, and soon the disappearance of Jack, Rose fell into a deep, grief driven depression. Rosemary developed psychosis after her loss, suffering from hallucinations, panic attacks, and seemingly disassociation; Rosemary began writing in her journal again after her losses, making up an entire dinner with her family that never happened as Edd, Molly, and Jack were all missing. She lost all motivation to go on in her life. She found everything miserable, from pitiful stares people gave her to sunlight coming through her bedroom window. To make things worse, Rose believed that her mental state was solely her responsibility, refusing therapy and compassion from others. She believed that it was her fault her family was dead as she failed to protect them; Rosemary was convinced she was a bad mother which struck her deeply as one of the things she wished to do was to give her child the best childhood possible.
