I feel like Christina is such an underrated actress. Love her 🖤

[@eviemayyy]

Same :)

[@patrickhicks9880]

i loved her in that zelda tv show i only saw series 1 i couldn't find the second one if they even made it

[@belle3055]

Amo ela❤

[@Jeymez]

she's not underrated at all, she's a great actress. it's just her look only landed her certain roles, it's why she did Black Snake Moan, it was her way of giving Hollywood the finger by not casting her in bigger roles. but there's no denying her talent, everything she is in she knocks it out of the park. now some might say if she's so great, why did Hollywood over look her. it's like i said, Christina Ricci is a great actress from a talent standpoint, but yall know how Hollywood can be. you can be good, and still get type cast into certain roles. well in Christina's case, she always looked young for her age, especially back then, but unfortunately Hollywood especially back then, girls like christina were often type cast. she has played in some big movies, but she was never the lead actress in most. so it's only with movies like this.

BPD at its finest. Even though this character was not diagnosed with BPD, she is fully portraying BPD. It really highlights the struggles, she did such an excellent job. ❤️

[@mmeqdasi]

Glad someone else noticed as well, it’s quite apparent of the overlapping symptomology of borderline & atypical depression, they both correlate and have apparent dichotomies but there’s still the quality of the fear of abandonment

[@marismawillreturn]

i haven’t watched the movie in a while but i’m pretty sure there was a scene where she was diagnosed with BPD

[@aidacailar1126]

Totally. I have a female friend with it and she acts exactly like that.

I have a few friends with borderline personality disorder and/or bipolar that have long-lasting relationships and have their own family. It can be really tough to get there but it is possible for some of us. And people with BPD are so amazingly caring.

[@Kid_Charlemagne76]

People with BPD are also pathological liars and manipulators

[@benedictjephcote6815]

@@Kid_Charlemagne76 Not the ones I've known and met. Check your generalisations.

[@Kid_Charlemagne76]

@@benedictjephcote6815 I know they're not all like that. I'm just stating a fact. It is true that lots of people with bpd are liars and can't be trusted

[@benedictjephcote6815]

​@@Kid_Charlemagne76 It sounds like you've had some difficult/awkward times with folks with bpd(?) I guess a difficult part of bpd is one of them having low trust in others and a need for control -because many folks with bpd come from having very difficult and invalidating experiences in their past. So, I can see how when a person with bpd feels the need to lie, or feel pressurised by a situation into lying, that it can then be a very intense situation. Which can be tough on the person with bpd and the person/people they're engaging with.

[@Kid_Charlemagne76]

@@benedictjephcote6815 you can't control what happened in the past but you can still control how you treat others. A traumatic past isn't an excuse to be a pathological liar. Lying is a conscious decision to make, not an involuntary reflex. Mental illness or not, you can still choose to not be a toxic person

Sorry, but she is a terrible actress. And this was a terrible scene.

[@Poison_Ivy22]

I've been in Lizzies shoes. Watching this movie almost made me feel like i was watching myself. All i wanted was for someone to love me choose me but yet for some reason i kept pushing everybody away until they were done. Life was so difficult emotionally in my late teens and entire 20's. Being in my 30's now and also now being a mom has helped me learn to control how i behave now. Sometimes you can outgrow this.

[@wisteria321]

I love this scene. Both actors are so talented. We all need to PAUSE before we respond.

My partner is like him with my bpd, the guilt is killer

[@Poison_Ivy22]

He actually does break up with her later on in the scenes bc she started becoming too needy, hovering and blowing up his phone while he's at his mom's house, he told her that she couldn't tag along bc it was personal family issues and instead of respecting his space and wishes she instead takes a flight to him and shows up unexpectedly and started accusing him of cheating to finding out he's actually helping with taking care of his mentally unwell sister... And instead of supporting him, apologizing for falsely accusing him she instead turns around and tells him he "gets off" on his sister's disability. That was pretty much the deal breaker for Rafe and he broke up with her for good.

[@LeshadHill]

I loved the whole kissing scene at the end

[@mm12122]

Lyrics The song she's got issues by the offspring. I'm seeing this girl and she just might be out of her mind Well she's got baggage and it's all the emotional kind She talks about closure and that validation bit I don't mean to be insensitive, but I really hate that shit Oh man she's got issues And I'm gonna pay She thinks she's the victim Yeah Now I know she'll feel abandoned If I don't stay over late And I know she's afraid to commit But it's only our second date Oh man she's got issues And I'm gonna pay She thinks she's the victim But she takes it all out on me

[@justadude5217]

I once dated a girl like her, and once I started realizing how miserable she was making me I ran away from that relationship like the plague. The last straw was that her behavior didn’t even change after I lost a family member. It become so toxic that I lost all empathy for her.

[@Poison_Ivy22]

Sometimes you just have to walk away, it was the best thing you could have done for yourself and her. You needed to protect your peace and she needs time to reflect on her own actions and hopefully losing you will be a step in the right direction to get some help.

Very difficult to understand a patient of Depression. The patient needs a very understanding sensitive Doctor Plus accurate medication and a good close friend and family support.

[@NicciZelda]

NOT medication. & it's profoundly impossible to find a doctor anywhere that doesn't see broken people as anything more than a paycheck, & just keep tossing pills at them to numb them & "fix" them.

[@badgerbadger-badger-Poppy]

Medication doesn't work for every one, but it can actually help a lot of people.

[@NicciZelda]

@@badgerbadger-badger-Poppy It can also destroy their chances of ever developing a "normal" functioning brain. Also, doctors need to stop sticking literal children on medication. If said patient does eventually end up needing some kind of temporary help, chemically, wait until their brain is done developing, rather than destroying their life & leaving them with barely any chance of maintenance without medication once they're sick of pills & doctors & pharmacies & withdrawals from missed doses (because doctors are sadistic pieces of shit.) Medication needs to STOP being the first route people take in any attempts to help those struggling with disorders. Start with the actual root cause; drugging everyone up is just a temporary bandaid, & makes their brain become lazy & stop producing shit it would have just produced on its own.

It's called depression and anxiety. If you can't love someone through it and help them out of the bad days, then you don't deserve the absolute deepest most passionate love you'll ever have. When someone with A&D falls in love, they fall in love hard. You're the one not worthy. Not them. Stop being the one placing a social Stigma around those facing mental health disorders.
