Sinead O'Connor addressed the Twitterverse on Wednesday asking for help with what appears to be a psychological crisis. The situation follows her on-again-off-again-on-again relationship with her new husband which has included a few "too much information" tweets in recent days.
The following are the messages from earlier today and reference her new husband Barry and the newspaper the Irish Independent who published an article alleging that Barry was counselling teenagers on drugs while Sinead was out looking for them:
