BPD

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Do psychopaths or those with personality disorders experience frustration and pain first...or are they just born that way? So human beings are inherently evil or human beings are inherently good? Susanna has extremely unstable interpersonal relationships. She is unable to form a long-term and stable relationship with others. She uses promiscuity to cover up the strong emptiness in her heart. Impulsivity is synonymous with her, and her cognition to the outside world depends on her own emotions. I think this video is a good introduction to Borderline Personality Disorder. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Between the polarities of black and white, their behavior patterns, their rich emotions, and their struggles are unimaginable to ordinary people. This is not a film about women's friends, nor is it a Hollywood blockbuster. Human nature, personality, and mental illness are the main themes, and growth and healing are the themes. We have all had crazy thoughts, naive thoughts, and angry behaviors. If it weren't for the constraints of rules and the fear of punishment, perhaps human beings would not be where they are today. We all grieve, sad, pain, hate, angry, we all have desires, weaknesses, incompetence, which is a symbol of human nature, just like we can be happy, happy, content. Crazy doesn't mean broken or swallowing indoor secret, it's you and me. Face yourself and accept yourself. What attracts me is not the exaggerated performances, because I know their truth, nor the happy ending, because I know that people can always beat themselves. What could be better than this?

Girl, Interrupted quotes

  • Lisa: So, have you had your first Melvin yet?

    Susanna: Who's that?

    Lisa: Bald guy with a little pecker and a fat wife. You're ther-rapist, sweet pea. Unless, ah... unless they're givin' you shocks. Or, God forbid lettin' you out. Then you get to see the great wonderful Dr. Dyke.

    Margie: She means Dr. Wick.

    Susanna: Oh, I've been in his office but I haven't met him yet.

    M.G.: He's a she. Dr. Wick's a girl.

    Lisa: That's right, M.G. Wick's a chick.

    M.G.: Wick's a chick.

    Lisa: Hence the nickname.

  • Georgina: Lisa, is Daisy really getting out?

    Lisa: Yeah, she coughed up a big one.

    Susanna: But how could - I mean she's... *insane*.

    Lisa: Yeah, well that's what ther-rape-me's all about. That's why fuckin' Freud's picture's on every shrink's wall. He created a fuckin' industry. You lie down, you confess your secrets and you're saved. Ca-ching! The more you confess, the more they think about settin' you free.

    Susanna: But what if you don't have a secret?

    Lisa: Then you're a lifer, like me.
