I get what she's saying. I also suffer from anxiety and I can't imagine being in her profession with all the spotlight on me. I'm just a normal person and there are days when I just want to go hide from the world. I think she loves music but she didn't want the effects of fame that come with it. Like the lack of privacy, how cutthroat the industry is, all these strangers talking about you all the time. Hell, even people you meet being nice to you one day and then stabbing in the back on their show the next day (i'm looking at you jimmy kimmel). But in her industry you need to be an outgoing person who is really fame-hungry. You know people like Madonna or JLO. They're older than her but they're still trying to keep up with people in their 20s and they're always trying to keep up their image. Britney isn't about that kind of life.

lol sounds like a true introvert like me. lol thats the thing about celebs i never got. usually u get artistic shy people in the idustry, those are the types of people who are talented but then at the same time , they expect u to be super outgoing, super put on spotlight. like u gotta grow so much thick skin. must be sooo hard

Yups. And it's so sad cuz once they grow that thick skin and stuff, later throughout their career the industry breaks them to where crap goes awry. :tbh:

Yes she does have bi polar disorder , she even said it on I am Britney Jean (it came off as kind of playing around but she really has it) as for the med thing again , no she's not gonna need the meds for the rest of her life , it's only until she's better and back to herself but she's obviously not cuz the conservatorship is still in place . The conservatorship is only in place until she can take care of herself on her own and is well enough

Even if she does have it which would explain how awkward she used to be in FF, still a great era though however she would have to be on meds for her whole life because say she stops she could relapse 1 year later, but maybe her dose has been lowered.

BTW when did she say it in IABJ? :waitWAT:

guuurl u flopping on this one. :thatsfunny: how do u not remember her saying that joke about bipolar. it was in the beginning. anyway, she would b on medication all her life. for depression, u can take pills and even out the balance in ur brain but for the illness like this, it's different. i think she might have a type of certain bipolar disorder but i think what she really has is borderilne personality disorder (which is actually nothing borderline about it, it's supposed to be called emotional dysregulation disorder). it's really terrible because u can feel abandonment and such severe pain in the smallest of things. u just feel everything. it's horrible. which would explain all of the awkward moments she's had in her career (even during her peak and younger years). the pain that a person feels during this type of disorder is so severe, it is just like the pain a person feels during second degree burns on their body. now imagine that every day for 90% of the day for the rest of ur life :crying3: it makes me cry just thinking about it

Yes, I love her but around that time she was really in the age to do anything, and probably in a lot of those interviews she was under influence of something, maybe alcohol or I Don't know. She knew the way to stop the awkwardness by using something else. And now she can't do that, Maybe..

We will never get to know her completely and what happens in her world.

She'll probably tell all when/if she gets to writing her autobiography.

Hopefully one day she writes it! It would be so successful, everyone wants to know what happens in her life lol..

Right??? I think her and her team know that which could also be why her interviews never get very deep now and she never talks about the breakdown in any real details, gotta save the goods for when the time is right.

Now I know which seen it was :lmaolol: (maybe I had to rewatch it :moorangu: )

Yes that's what I thought because for a while a psychiatrist analysed me and told me about possible mental illnesses, and expalained bipolar.

:crying1: That would also explain why she is protected so much because they want her to feel happy and prevent her from feeling abandoned and in pain :crying2: It seem like a horrible illness it really does make me cry too :crying2: Hopefully she doesn't have this illness

the only time i will say she was under something was during femme fatale that one interview where they asked her something and she couldnt answer the question and just said u kno u kno and waved her hand remember? and a few more invterviews during that time. and i think she was high lol on the interview with simon during the xfactor where she made all those faces. but that is it. (oh and during chaiotic when kevin was filming her and she said the quote yes it is kevin, yes it is about something)

Posted

yes, that's basically what she's saying. i strongly think that if it was her choice, she would no longer have fame.

yeah that is what i think so too. but what do u think forces her to still stay? would that be the c-ship then? or maybe she kind of makes herself do it even though she doesnt enjoy it. sometimes when a person is down, a lot of times they will do things that actually do not make them happy, its a way of beating themselves up. i wonder if thats what she's doing (if that is really her choice, i am pretty sure 99% tho it isnt)

i kno it is soo soo sad :crying2: i think she does. and bipolar is a different illness of its own, she could have a combination of those. but this illness is curable. bipolar not so much but there are medications. so theres a lot of hope for her. :) but what upsets me is i dont think she wants to get help for herself. she beats herself up. i think if she allowed for herself to heal and accept good things for herself, she'd be a lot more happy and enjoying life and more like her old self. i think she cant forgive herself of the headshaving. but its all because the world reacted soo bad about it. they couldnt have given her a break :crying2:

what do u mean crap goes awry? i am sorry i am not familiar with this phrase lol i have a foreign background

Actually she was a little bit herself during xfactor .. Let's not forget the auditions lol but when it came to the live shows she definitely wasn't herself her anxiety went up. Don't get me wrong she seems more relaxed now and is waaaaaay better lol but I wouldn't say she's like her old self cuz she's not there yet. As for medication , she is taking meds , she has mental illness (bi polar disorder) u need to take meds when it comes to an illness like that . The moment she's off meds is the moment she'll be out of the conservatorship

well u shouldnt jump into conclusions like that. u really dont kno what is going on. i think she has the power to chose if she wants to be on medication. she doesnt seem like she is at all. but i do agree she has mental illness thats for sure. it actually surprises me that she isnt on medication. u would b able to see if she is. but she literally functions absolutely med free.

Oh haha "crap goes awry" means they start out fine and then the industry just destroys them to where they break down (like Justin Bieber, Lindsey Lohan, Amanda Bynes, etc.)

I never said she's not herself, I'm just saying not completely .. Yes I agree she's starting to act like she's used to but just not as much fully there . As for medication , it has very much to do with it . I'm the type of person that checks my facts before I say anything and I did research and it has a lot to do with it . U should look up the med zyprexa , the symptoms are : stiffness (which explains her stiffness when she dances) , confusion , unability to talk (Britney sometimes can't talk right) change of personality (explains why she's not herself most of the times) etc .. This is why I'm saying that .. Don't feel that I'm bashing her cuz I'm really not I just want everyone to understand why she's like this

gurl me and brit share the exact same personalities. we are like legit soul sisters. and i cannot even begin to tell u how much medication i do not take and act hands down exactly like her. i actually think a lot of her fans would agree share same personalities like me too. its jut something i learned over the years. i applaud u for doing the research, but i say this out of actual experiement. i do think she was on a bit of medication during femme fatale era. it made her face puffy and she did struggle to talk during those times. remember the poop interview? it really seemed like she was on something but it was for such a small amount of time, i wonder if it might of just been weed

oh yeahh i totally agree with that. its so sad cuz then they cant express themselves and i feel like those are the types of people who need to express themselves the most

You can't tell if she has or not bipolar disorder as you said, came off as kind of playing around, so it doesn't mean she really has it. The media made people believe that she has it, but there's no fact proving it.

And if she has bipolar disorder, then she will take meds till the rest of her life, because it's an uncure disease.

that is true but we never had her come out and say that isnt true. she never actually talked about it ever and so far, that has been the only thing she's mentioned so eve tho it must of been a joke, i feel like it was a sarcastic one which held a lot of truth . she also said on an xfactor interview when they metnioned crazy that she was perfect then. remember?

Posted

Britney is asked is what she does worth sacrificing her privacy.

gosh i havent seen that interview in such a long time. its crazy how she says its not worth it. thats so sad .

LOL also hahaaha i laughed soo hard when she said gggg i will go bonkers.

I bet all that courage Britney had around 2001 to 2006 was influenced by drugs and alcohol. No offense I love her but come on she changed a lot around then and then all of sudden she had that breakdown and now she's back to being quiet and awkward. I don't think she ever was truly naturally confident in her fame but now she's confortable admitting that she hates the intense fame that comes with being her. That's my take on it. Her mental issues (whatever they may be) probably forced her to stop pretending she was cool with the scrutiny and focus on healing and that means being real with herself and how she feels. She doesn't really try to hide the awkwardness now and I appreciate that.

oh boy i feel so irritated by this lol but i appreciate ur honesty and ur own opinion but i u r completely wrong. thats for sure. she was NOT on medication and i probably shouldnt go further cuz i will just lose ur interest but wow, i am surprised at how different of points of view people have. hmm is this because u kno someone like that in real life? but again, i appreciate ur point of view. it is refreshing in a way i must admit

I really don't think that Britney has borderline personality disorder. *whips out neuroscience textbook* I figure that because people with borderline personality disorder can be really sweet and then the next minute they are extremely manipulative due to the fact that they have an extreme and irrational fear of abandonment. The manipulation can be displayed in sadness, anger, anxiety. But it is manipulative. Sam was the one being manipulative of her. I don't recall anything where she was manipulating anyone else in attempt to keep them close with her. She had cut off a lot of people during her breakdown which is when someone would normally need those close to them the most, which really emphasizes it for me that she doesn't. A prime example of this illness is when you'll hear people threatening to kill themselves if their SO breaks up with them in order to try to convince them to stay in a relationship with them, and after they agree to stay together the person with the illness will self-mutilate their body. Although we don't know everything, it's just an educated guess.

Even if she does have it which would explain how awkward she used to be in FF, still a great era though however she would have to be on meds for her whole life because say she stops she could relapse 1 year later, but maybe her dose has been lowered.

BTW when did she say it in IABJ? :waitWAT:

In all honesty I think she may just be on anti-depressants for depression and was on one that wasn't working very well during FF. Anti-depressants are supposed to make you feel more lively (obviously. You'd want a medication that makes people who don't even feel capable of getting out of bed to feel more motivated and happy). If she was on something that wasn't working for her, that would explain everything. But I don't know, just a guess ;) based on 2007 and what she was saying in FTR. But she could not be on anything and 2007 was just a situational thing and she is just especially shy with the media after everything that has happened to her and is starting to come to terms and opening up. Who knows.

and sadly they still don't :( I say I like Britney Spears

and the person responds with "that b**** that shaved her head and went nuts"

then I say that was 8 years ago :zoomzoom: either slap the person show them how much she has acomplished since then and make them stans

It's just sad how the GP treats people with certain illnesses as if they were crazy but honestly their completely normal people who just have some more challenging areas, In a way I can relate so much to Britney because of something similar I went through and I know how it feels to be judged like that, and I wish the best for her and if she does have something for her to overcome the obstacle which she did now it's just a tiny bump she needs to overcome :)

i respect ur opinion but i must kindly disagree. i would accept ur point but i cannot because what u give me is an educational guess. do u have real life proof? any expierence with bpd? but i am excited that u r willing to research and go more into depth, i think thats rare. most people aren't so kind and open-minded and are quick to judge. i just wanna say, manipulation isn't the main thing with bpd. it is one of the categories but it is not the only thing about it. wherever u got ur information sounds like something written from someone else's point of view. like a friend or a family member who's knows someone who had bpd. it's a kind thing to try and explain this illnes but it sounds like someone's opinion and opinions can be extremely wrong and misunderstood sometimes . borderline personality disorder is extremely hard to describe and to misinterpret. it is one of those things that has such a huge stigma and reputation, it's very complicating for someone who doesn't struggle with this to understand. so i wouldnt believe that certain description too much. i would reveal my sources of where i get my information but i'd like to keep that private, it's very personal and is too upsetting of a topic. but rest assured, there is a lot more to bpd than what u understand. i just wanna say that. but ur open-mindness is so lovely :hug: i thank u for that :kiss2:

Yes lol that's what antidepressants are :) and they have tons of side effects, maybe recently if she still had some sort of depressive circle she's relying less on medication and more on therapy :)
