What’s Wrong with Britney?

Pretty easy Robertos to make such a careless and thoughtless comment. What are you doing on this site may I ask? I applaud the police for ensuring Brittany gets the care that she needs. Irregardless of her wealth, fame and apparently reckless behavior, she is an extremely hurting young woman, crying for help. Hopefully she gets the help that she needs. I agree that it could be Postpartum Depression or some other kind of depression that she has tried to ignore or self medicate, just like many other people in this world. I pray that she gets the help that she needs and gets her life back on track and is able to get her children back as I don't believe their father is the best answer either.

I see so many of you quick to bash everything going on here...woman and men. Has anyone thought it could be possibly post partum depression causing her to have all these outbursts? I have yet to hear one media wonder that, has she ever had a post partum check up after her youngest was born? we see her at the coffee shops, shaving her head, eating dinner, skipping court...never the doctors. Hooray for the police to have her sectioned someone needs to evaluate her something isn't right - its in her eyes and its pathetic so many won't leave her alone...that alone must make her nuts - remember throwing stones at glass houses.

It's very sad that people like this can have children so easily when there are thousands of couples who would love to parent and take care of a child, but have to deal with infertility.

I think she realized a long time ago that she has no talent but got used to the attention. She can't keep out attention in a good way so she will keep in a destrutive way. And even if you wont admit it, we all enjoy a good train wreck. I just feel so sorry for the kids but at least they have their dad, who I thought would be the loser parent.

metalheads, men with icewater flowing through their veins, emotionless robots, testosterone riddled dominating abusive bullies need to 12 + 12 = 24, shut your mouths and say no more and let the goddesses of motherhood speak without restraint or drugging, free to wield umbrellas without derogatory labeling but with St. Francis of Assisi seeking to understand not be understood from all.

There are scores of other people who have endured way worse with way fewer resources at their availability and have triumphed over adversity. She CHOOSES to act out because she thinks it's "cute" or "cool" or whatever her twisted little trailer trash mind thinks. I do not pretend to know what goes on in her head, as I actually have a brain. For some, the best solution is to off themselves before they hurt others, like those poor little boys, or god forbid, she get behind the wheel in one of her intoxicated pushes for attention and kills some innocent. Hopefully, she will off herself before that...seriously, who would miss her.... certainly not her children who haven't had her as a parental figure since the flew out of her baby shitter...

anyone comparing brittney to princess di should be ashamed of themselves. princess di was an elegant ,graceful, caring ,and compassionate woman in a bad marriage. brittney is a selfish addict with mental issues. if you want to compare her with someone, compare her with anna nicole smith!

That picture with Britney and the umbrella scares me. The eyes the hate burning thru. How can anyone give her those kids without a chaperon. That guy she hangs out with is a leech. Then he shows up at the hospital. If I was her father I would have disallowed him to visit. He is her supplier. As unkept looking as he is you know why he's around. Can't anyone put two and two together. How sad, she is lost.

It deffinately sounds like Brittanys mental health should be evaluated. I have been paying close attention to reports of her wild/erratic behavior, which the symptoms very closely resemble those of persons who have been diagnosed with bi-polar/manic depressive disorder. And, I find it extremely odd that there have been no reports as to whether or not this has been looked at concerning her behavior.

I think the Doctors should consider the possibility of syphilis. She's rumored to get around a lot and for females mental illness could be one of the only symptoms.

the sad fact is that what sells this news is peoples desire to witness the destruction of a sexy young successful woman who has more than most people times a thousand.....most people are HATERS and would see her dead because she has seen such success. I pray she gets help before she lets the rest of us kill her

Other non-celebrity females have gone through what Britney is going through. The paparazzi are not a factor. The paparazzi may protect her more from the abuse of our legal system. The paparazzi also make the public aware of Britney's plight instead of hiding it like the propaganda of Hitler's Germany. The public deserves the right to know and criticize judges and other government leaders and decision makers. Accountability and scrutiny should not be denied or discouraged. Britney is being emotionally abused. Obviously effective "help" is not being provided. To even ask what is wrong with Britney shows lack of understanding to base help on. Take away the emotional abuse from Federline and the legal system and there would be less need to maintain control or take substances to deal with the pain. Divorce is universally painful and highly difficult for most to deal with. On top of that is the transition to motherhood with loss of freedom and marriage with loss of self-autonomy for women, then the hormonal instabilities of pregnancy...the lack of insight, compassion and support for Britney's behavior is unbelievable. What is a CASA and why is your authority to be respected over other people's opinions, life experiences and feelings? Britney deserves to suffer as much as her former stepchildren's mother although it looks like that stepmother will get the last laugh.

I truly hope Britney gets the help she needs. She has been spiralling out of control since the birth of her second child. I went through post partum depression and it was horrible. It may look like, from the outside, that she is making her decisions and she just doesn't care...but that is what mental disorders do. They cause you to think irratically, and no matter what anyone else says, your decisions seem perfectly logical to you. For those of you who have no empathy for someone in this senerio, shame on you. No one would invoke this type of attention upon themselves with a sound mind. There is clearly *something* wrong and it's horribly sad that the nation, and more importanly, her friends and family are watching this happen and not encouraging her to seek help. I mean, do you really think Paris Hilton said, "Hey, Britney, maybe we should just hang out at your place and play with the kids." or "Hey, lets take the kids to the park!" Noooo. What Britney has surrounded herself with is pseudo friends who only want another leg up, a bit more publicity. I never paid much attention to Britney until her life started going downhill...now I can't help but listen because I've been there...along with so many other women...and I want to *be there* when the cloud breaks to see a happy ending for her and her children. I wish only the best for her.

the sad fact here is that what is selling this news is peoples desire to see the destruction of a beautiful successful young woman who most unsuccessful loosers envy and hate. God Bless this girl. Maybe she will find help before the restr of us kill her. And maybe some people will learn that the truth is they envy her and want to stand in the spotlight where she stands.......Nah.....they'd have to get honest with themselves to admit that

I agree, people (mostly media) need to leave her alone. They add fuel to the fire, and in my opinion, exaggerate everything by far. Brittney has some issues she needs to fix, on her own, with her family. People need to back off and leave the poor girl alone to fix what needs to be fixed.

Britney Spears another Princess Diana tradgey of the media in the making.? Now American media? Stop
the media from destroying people. Britney needs peace to find her way. Leave her alone. Please the government step in to stop the media from this total disrespect for a persons privacy. It is so cruel. Sandy B

What's wrong with Brittney? She is childish, selfish and self-absorbed and until she loves someone more than herslef, she will always be a worthless piece of crap.
I agree with watersnake, I am tired of hearing about this horrible mother and her horrible family.
