Week 15: A character that you can relate to the most.
I love the film Girl Interrupted. Winona Ryders performance of Susanna Kaysen is excellent. I can relate to Kaysen's situation whereas her parents don't understand her and think that she is completely nuts. The "so-called" professionals misdiagnose her with Borderline Personality Disorder. When, in reality, she is just a girl coming of age and trying to decide what she wants in life. She knows what she does NOT want...and that is to be trapped like her mother.
For those who don't know, the film is actually based on the true events in the late 60s of Kaysen. (Based on her book) If you have not seen it or read the book, I highly recommend it!
"The psychological rule says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. That is, when the individual remains undivided and does not become conscious of his inner opposite, the world must perforce act out the conflict and be torn into opposing halves." C. G. Jung

As a health-care worker and nursing student, I thought I should throw this tid-bit of info out there...This blog follows all HIPAA privacy rules so you will never see names to protect the privacy of patients. Think you recognize yourself in a story? You don't. There are many, MANY patients and facilities out there in the big world!
