Britney Spears Lifetime Conservatorship

[BlackoutEgo]

Heres the thing tho , if Britney wanted to fight it and speak to a judge she actually could but she chooses not to .. So just maybe this is what she wants

A conservatorship has its goods & its bads, the good part about it is that no one can touch her. Theres been a couple of ppl that tried to sue her already but they couldn't because as long as brit is under that conservatorship they cant sue her . She can still make decisions for herself.

The bad part about it is simple , heavily guarded & take control of her finances. She can very well make her own decisions but must always be babysat & if she wants to make a large purchase she has to get the ok for it instead of making that decision for herself

But overall I dont think its that much of a big deal besides the heavily guarded part . Do I think Britney is mentally stable? Yea kind of .. Shes somewhat there but not fully.. But she must be stable I mean come on lbr , Jamie & Lynne are in Louisiana right now and Britney is here in LA. The person that lives close to Brit would be Bryan .. The ppl that Brit is mostly with is her assistant ,guards, and some friends. So i dont think its as bad as ppl are making it out to be

Schizophrenia cannot be dismissed imo.  Look back at the accent thing, the pink wig and her other personalities.  It is impossible for us to know if she was trolling the press, stoned, or not in reality.  She also habitually looks like a hot mess.  There was the day she had the bloody mess, her showing of her privates, and many instances where she appears to be a hot mess who can barely dress herself or comb her hair.  

 

I have spent hours going through site after site from 2007 and 2008.   There are a lot of very little things that when taken as a whole is troubling.  This taken into account with the amount of time the cship has been in place is telling.  I guess I lean toward she is really sick.  Bipolar was thrown out a lot during that time, but it was never confirmed as fact.  A source somehow leaked bipolar and others kept reporting the source.  

 

I am not a medical doctor.  I have no clue what she has been diagnosed with.  I just hope the ones that are taking care of her, are doing what is best for her, not their own pocketbook.  

I've taken a few classes on mental illnesses and multiple personality disorder is an entirely different mental illness than Schizophrenia, though. I mean, I'm not Britney so I can't tell you if she was having hallucinations and whatnot, but typically speaking schizophrenics are very paranoid and as a result completely isolate themselves from others. That's a big symptom and Britney went out all of the time. Even the smaller symptoms like being emotionally flat and having word salad she didn't display, so I would rule it out from what we saw, anyway. I would also imagine if it was that bad she would have spent a much longer time in a rehab facility than she did. Especially with those hospital visits where they sent her home after. People can successfully live with schizophrenia, though too. Lots of them get rehabilitated.

The thing with the wig and the accents is that those can be anything. They can be bipolar, they can be multuple personality disorder, they can be depression that she uses to escape reality. There's lots of things. I don't know.

It could also have simply been an alcohol addiction. Every drug reacts differently with everyone and some people who are addicted to alcohol experience different variations of psychosis.

Britney Spears has been under a remarkably successful conservatorship for 7 1/2 years, and sources familiar with the situation tell us it could last a lifetime.

 

We're told there are no plans to end the conservatorship, even in the long term, and no one involved is complaining. As TMZ and every other media outlet reported, Britney was so bad off at the end of 2007 her family was in fear she would die.

 

After she was taken to the hospital on a psych hold, her dad, Jamie Spears, went to court and a conservatorship was established in January 2008. There are actually 2 conservatorships ... one for the person, and one for finances.  

 

Fact is ... the conservatorships have worked remarkably well. Britney -- who at her worst was on the verge of losing permanent custody of her kids -- is now by any standard a great parent. Jamie and Britney's doctors have stabilized her to the point she can successfully work and maintain a personal life.

 

As for the financial conservatorship, it has been a huge success. Last year alone the conservatorship raked in $14 million, and that's only a portion of Britney's financial machine. As one source said, before the conservatorship her finances were an absolute mess, and the ship has been fully righted. 

 

We're told Britney -- who has a team of lawyers and doctors, along with Jamie, managing the conservatorship -- has "substantial day-to-day freedom" to make her own decisions.

 

Short story ... if the conservatorship were to end, there would be significant risk she could backslide. The plan is to continue the conservatorship indefinitely ... because it works.

I like the woman she is becoming. However, I disagree with the view that the order is being successful. If the view is that a lifetime order is needed because she would fail then that is not success. She needs to be an adult capable of managing her finances and life. Her father can not and should not need to hold her hand through life. If they were a success she would have been learning the lessons she needs to grow. If they consider the order needs to remain for her I think it best they allow her to fail and start over.

yikes. Im just happy she is alive.

Listen, we know she walks her dogs and kids without even supervision or bodyguards, thats a HUGE step. She can drive her car, she can go shopping and use he rmoney as she likes. There really isn't anything bad in this anymore..

 

I believe it is there for a reason, maybe the reason just isn't clear to us, but it really doesn't mean anything. It helps her get jobs, and insurance-companies trust her more now than in 2007..

conservatorships are usually temporary. i honestly believe there is a valid reason it's still in place, a serious one that is not only looking out for her own welfare, but also her children. we might not ever know - her situation is most unusual given that she is one of the most famous people on earth and we are not in the place to say that she shouldn't be under it because we are not her doctors, family, etc.

I personally (just speculating) believe it has more to do with her children's welfare. If she didn't have children or her children were over 18, I think there would be less of a grip.

I agree. She was probably more against it in the beginning, as you would naturally be. But her parents risked their relationship with their child in order to get it under control and honestly, save her from herself. It's something that is not emphasized enough and people see it as them being greedy. I don't see it that way. I think the conservatorship was their last resort and last hope with both her and her children's well being in mind.

Absolutely. Some people can smoke weed daily and function normally in society. Others, like my brother, has been told many times by doctors that he has a very strong reaction to it that affects him negatively.

I forgot about the lawsuits being a good point.. She has avoided a LOT of lawsuits under this c-ship, not even the stupid bodyguard with his sexual harrasements got anything major out of it. 
And yeah, Sam can't touch her, that's good. She doesn't have to face him.

[Bluealien]

It's funny how some of you think she is HAPPY to be in this mess. Just because she isn't protesting on stage doesn't mean she is HAPPY about it. She is helpless in this position and it would do nothing for her is she said she wasn't happy about it. They play the old "mentally unstable" card and thats it.

And you know this because she told you?

Do you think the only reason she is willing to do it is so she can see her kids? Ever since the conservatorship started, she was seeing her kids more often than she was during her breakdown. Sam kept manipulating her to do things for him with a promise that she'll get her kids back yet but he barely did anything compare to now where she can have them without supervision and more often like a normal separated parent.

Not to mention she has a ton of lawsuits from so many people that will ruin her financially. Not just Sam and the bodyguard but from Brand Sense over her perfume deal.

In the end, nothing makes her happier than being with her children and as any mother would do, she'll put up with anything if she can be part of their lives and to care for them so to me she is happy and content with the conservatorship. So don't act like after every show they put her back in her cage at night. She was still guarded even when she was in her prime, base on celebrities who met her so why is this any different? Maybe she likes the protection since she is a very shy person.!

So now you are practically saying the cship is a fraud to protect her from her previously signed bad contracts? Thats is fraud in the highest form.

Sure...you are absolutely right...she must LOVE it to watch her mouth in interviews and always having eye-contact to her people because she doesn't know what she is allowed to say. Must be a dream come true. And it's not that she is really shy because she could handle herself pretty damn well in her prime. She just has anxiety since her breakdown. She was totally fine in interviews before....even if she was shy she would've never act the way she does nowadays. 

 

And don't give me the "now she can see her kids"...it's been 7 years, 2 world tours and now a Vegas residency.....no one would take her kids away after 7 years of proofing the whole world that she can handle herself and her kids. But thanks for your 2 cents.
