It was the 60s whatcha expect? Cynthia was basically there for being lesbian

There’s much more to it. And 50% of the population does not have it.

In the movie, there was a moment when she attacked Valerie with some racist words but after she had a mental break she ended up apologizing to Valerie and saying she was a pig.

Well, yeah...this was supposed to be set in the 60s. What did you expect??

@@renatareibuddysmama2534 I didn’t expect someone to be sent to rehab for their sexuality. Just therapy.

@@AaronSaltzer back in the day you were sent to the nuthouse for just about anything especially women. Ever heard of Christine Collins ?

@@adrianagflores5587 Yep. People were preettty fucking ignorant back then. We still have a long ways to go too.

In a deleted scene Polly is giving Suzanna a tour of the ward where she tells her what everyone did to get in there. She points to Cynthia and said “She’s in here because her parents don’t like the way she dresses.” Really sad and interesting.

That's why she won the Oscar for her role.

Same...

Isabel Fornos And GET HIM TO THE GREEK

seriously? She pushed daisy to suicide, humiliated daisy and the other girls, liked controlling the girls, Physically and verbally abused the others to the point where they all feared her, was super charismatic, disregard for laws, and steals money out of a dead person's pockets? If that doesnt scream sociopath I really dont know what does.... But then everyone in the comment section is a fucking psychologist.

Shes not trying to make up with her, that was intimidation.

@@motjon I see it as both

Lisa wasn't trying to forgive her she sees nothing that she's doing Is wrong

No they dont haha susana has borderline and lisa is a sociopath

Lidera that’s what I thought too but at 0:46 you can see that Lisa’s diagnosis is borderline personality disorder!

@@luisasaint71 probably thats just a little clip of someone elses paper

@@luisasaint71 or the directors were just too lazy to make another diagnosis paper lol

They do... but I see Lisa way more as a Narcissit/Antisocial gal. I can see BPD in her, but I feel its kind of a stretch.

Same

In Susana's final voiceover, she says something to the effect of, "Being crazy isn't burying a dark secret; its you or me, amplified." I agree that most people exhibit the signs of BPD. The degrees to which it presents are really the only thing that's different.

Who told you that you have bpd? So you understand that before the age od 18 you cannot diagnose any personality disorder? You understand that you, said in the simplest way possible, cannot experience emotions, don't know what empathy is,..? BPD is no joke...

@@marijanuzdic2083 if you have BD you have it mainly because you Do have empathy, cry for minor things, suffer more than most people do even it's Just for a muddy, old, homeless dog that nobody looks twice at. You have no idea to judge without knowing people.It is possible for a person with BD not to feel empathy only if he or she is numb with his or her own mania.

@@amyhotspot2631 Not true, here's a thing,my mother is a psychologist, since I was 13 I have been reading and studying psychology, besides that now I am a psychology student. Whoever is diagnosed with any type of personality disorder has to be at least 18. People that have been diagnosed with PD(a R E A L psychologist/psychiatrist diagnosed them) are notorious for lack of empathy, being manipulative and lack of emotions. BPD is definitely specific but if you do have empathy and specific emotions but most other symptoms of BPD you are BIPOLAR. I am literally talking facts from approved books and years of experience. Most of my family have some type of mental disorder so yeah I kinda feel like I know a bit more than just someone who did online test to see if they have a real mental disorder. Please dont spread false information.

this has to before because the symptoms now are worded differently

Amiracle Chrisbreezy there is such thing as co morbid disorders and most people suffering from OCD usually suffer from other disorders as well. I can vouch for that

how did she have OCD? I have OCD and didn't notice it in her at all lol

Maggie thank u

Are you a doctor? No, you’re not. Educate yourself first. Mental illness is more complex than that.

@@Voice7777777 The way she kept her chicken under her bed. Or when she was eating a cupcake and began by picking on the sprinkles. maybe?

@@MIHELISHAR Sociopaths are prone to mood swings. I've heard the two disorders are often mistaken for each other, especially in women. They can have sudden bursts of intense emotion that don't last long and end as suddenly as they begin.

Writing's the one thing I was ever good at, and I just used the word 'suddenly' twice in the same sentence😣😣😣😣😣😣😣.

@@MIHELISHAR Who yelled at you?

Not uncommon for Antisocial Personality Disorder to be comorbid with Bipolar.

@@sickboy7104 Me

+LittleGoof 1 ...that's not how Bipolar works

Depends on who you have it with. 😊

Nope, nothing wrong, with everybody

If u have to ask...

@@bugeye8749 its a fair question. As long as you practice safe sex and dont play games with peoples emotions, whats wrong with it? For example in the movie Susanna has a bf but has sex with the orderly, well at least makes out with him and gives him a bj, a few times. Theyfre friendly but dont really know eachother, arent in a relationship and probably wont see eachother again when she leaves... but in those moments he lifts her spirits and they both get to escape for a while and have fun. As long as theyre both up front thst this isnt serious-whats wrong with it? Who's hurt?

@@merkitten953 oh dear....ok in this case the thing that's wrong is that he is an orderly in a position of power over a patient in a facility. just like how a teacher is not to engage in sexual activities with a student, even an 18 year old senior, or how a superior is not supposed to engage in sexual activities with a subordinant. the power disparity is what makes it wrong. yes both legal adults but she's supposed to be in a place of care and he's supposed to be in a trusted position.

Haha that made me laugh

lmaooooo

Lol love it

Truer words have never been spoken

Ruth Edwards I agree 100%

Ruth Edwards Some people actually have problems...

I never feel there’s a lacking in mental health problems in our world. I’d say they have enough patients.

But that being said are you saying there shouldn't be mental health representation in film and tv I think people forget this is based off a autobiography by Suzanna based on her journals she kept why in the facility Given that information on different disorders are always changing you shouldn't bash a movie that was made in the1990’s but set in the mid-’60s that's based of a book based on notes from a girl who was going through a huge traumatic life-changing moment and while on drugs I think they did a great job showing how it does feel like it's you and your fellow patient's against the system that by diagnosing you into any disorder alienates you from ’normal’ society people look at you differently treat you differently or like her parents get annoyed that they have a ’defective’ kid who is gonna mess up the holiday by not get better in a short period of time

Lilly Santiago is the book different or the same?

@@thewallfangirl2980 kinda not the same bc lisa hair in the book was suppose to be dull black hair

you did see her pushing daisy's buttons and lack of reaction to her death, right? that was a display of her sociopathic traits right there.

uhm no... she’s def a sociopath, and some. She may have seemed “badass” to you but that’s just how some people might perceive her

Well if you know what sociopathy was considered in the 90s, it's pretty much anyone who goes against the status quo.

The criteria for diagnosing has much to do with whoever is too "out there", so "out there" you can't function right

Mmm she def had a personality disorder- most likely NPD or ASPD

?

harliette not true. Men have casual sex and they have to do it with someone. Actually many women without a strong sense of self have serial monogamy to find love.

harliette Riiiight #delusion

I know this was seven years ago but that wasn't true. The compulsive liar told that story

@@kingbelail 1 year but yeh you can see when she moves her picture she was the sixth victim in someone burning people

@ThatOne Nope, while they're flipping through files you can see a news clipping talking about a fire.

@ThatOne OH i never saw the grade! good point out!

'Cause the trauma sent her into arrested development.

In the book, so the real Polly, was schizofrenic, that's why she really set herself on fire

Because she did it to herself

@ThatOne Yes. That's actually interesting because earlier in the movie, Georgina told Susanna that Polly set herself on fire to get rid of a rash that her puppy was giving her, so she could keep it. But then she revealed afterwards that she's a pathological liar, and in this scene, we realize that she was indeed lying about Polly and we can see what really happened to her.
