What’s Wrong with Britney?

I believe it is a combination of everything, from Postpartum depression,to a party lifestyle, stress from the divorce and the kids.the entaintment industry is not easy either.It could be a bunch of factors.
for the sake of her children and herself , lets hope she gets the help needed.

I am probably going to hear flack of this but, given the knowledge i have as a nurse as a mother as a psycholgy student and as a child development student, I am going to say this. I feel that brit has undergone so much since she bacame a young star. It sent her on a spiral. In a few short years she has became a star , a wife, a mother and each and every one of those takes its toll on a person. Were all human we can understand that. Now throw in a divorce, (which i can understand why in ways but, the bible says for better or worse) i do not believe her husband should have divorced her due to her illness. Instead he should have sought out medical and counseling measures seeing his wife was young and under stress and sought her help. His actions and continued actions only make her illness worse. He has to face the kids at some point and say yes your mom was losing her mind and i walked out and took you 2 and left her to continue losing it. So in that sense if he truly loves those boys he will not be theway he is. He will instead realise that is their mother and will always be their mother no matter what. He should help her for their sake. Not continue to contribute to it. Her as any of us mothers would do would feel a sense of mental losing it when it came to someone taking our kids. She maybe seriously ill. Mental illness which includes depression and anxiety is on the rise unreal these days. But instead of people walking in when it happens, it seems everyones willing to walk out only furthering the illness. So lets see how many people have truly staid by her side through all this? When the going gets tough the friends and loved ones walk away and its only the true ones who walk in. He needs to think of Brit as his childrens mother not his ex wife and realise im sure he wasnt perfect and im sure we arent all being told of his actions that caused all this. They are both responsible for those children and to make sure eachparent is there for them as they grow.

Everyone on the planet has up's and down's. Some more extreme than others. Celebritiy up's and down's are only dramatized that much more and though I don't feel sorry for any of them, I do have compassion for them.. I can only imagine what the press would have written about me and my ex-husband as we were going through our divorce, but I'm not a celebrity, so my life isn't butterflied wide open for the world to judge.
Sometimes hitting rock bottom is the only way a person can truly wake up to a new understanding about life.
The personal war we go through is only a war between an aspect of ourselves that wants to hold on to the past and the aspect of ourselves that wants to let go and move on. The length and intensity of the war depends on how addicted we are to the emotions that keep us tangled in that vicious cycle.
Brittany is no different than anyone else in that regard. She's simply unaware that she has other options to cosider - options like joy and happiness. Her story only reminds me of all the hard times I have gone through and thecourage it took for me to overcome huge obstacles. I hope Brittany someday comes to a deep understanding within herself in order to pull herself up by the bootstraps and start taking babysteps to create a harmonious environment for her kids and herself. Everyone deserves to be happy...

DDDDD

I hope she gets the helps she needs. She "when sober and in the right mind set" Is one of the most beautiful and talented girls in the world. She probably made one bad choice at a party then snowballed from there. Its easy for a bunch of nobodys to throw insults at her simply because they are jealous of her success. And its absolutely sickening that someone would wish anna nicoles tradgety upon Spears. What kind of a person are you. I can answer that, obviously a bitter little boy who got beat up lots and has never been laid,

Good luck Britney and i would love to see you back on top of the pop world asap.

Unreal. Right here is where the probems begin. Feeding on someone elses misery like sharks. Get some motivation people find something more constructive to do other than being a part of the problem.

Pure and simple, Britney needs professional help. It's so disturbing and sad that this young woman's life has spiraled out of control. It's even sadder for her two little boys that essentially have no mother. Unfortunately, the media in it's efforts to increase their ratings sensationalize each news-worthy Britney tidbit, it's no wonder Britney's dazed, confused, and unable to get herself together to get the help she so desperately needs.

I THINK EVERYONE IS BLAMING HER BEHAVIOR ON DRUGS,PARTING ECT. WHEN IN FACT SHE NEEDS TO BE DIAGNOSED CORRECTLY IN ORDER TO PROPERLY HELP HER. FIRST THING I WOULD CHECK IS POSTPARTUM PSYCHOSIS WHICH IS MORE SERIOUS THEN POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION. BRITTNEY HAS ALL THE SIGN'S.

Having over 13 years experience as a counselor and licensed chemical dependency professional, this behavior is typical and quite common of someone with a chemical/alcohol dependency diagnosis. Sadly, I would suggest that incidents such as this happen thousands of times (literally) each and every day. Your evidence can be found in the records of emergency rooms around the country.

i dont think anyone is qualified to make a medical diagnosis unless you are a licensed professional. give this woman a break, if she is strung out and needs an intervention, this might be the only hope she has of getting treatment. if she has a medical condition, then maybe it will be diagnosed and she gets the help she needs. its pitiful for you to insinuate she is a waste of skin rockharder81-don't be a hater, its unbecoming someone of your stature. if she is a danger to herself then lets hope she gets the help she needs and not beat down by the public hype machine.

Britney, Lindsay Hohan and all the others like them are proof positive that the parents are responsible for the destruction of these people. They are responsible for the maturation process and education of their children. But money hungry mongrels sacrifice all that for the moolah. This is why these people are train wrecks and are going to end up like Anna Nicole Smith and all those before her who couldn't handle the pressure of a new lifestyle because of their success. It's a shame but they have no one to blame but themselves. If this was joe blow american doing this, the courts would have the parents behind bars by now for neglect. But because it's so called celebs and millions of dollars the system allows this destruction to take place. Granted Brit and Lindsay are officially adults now, but it was their parents that guided them as children and have now fed them to the dogs. Such a sad statement of society in America. All for the love of money and success.

Seriously, yadi2o...are you as dumb as Britney is? Like Scientology is going to get her life together? Here's a quote on Scientology from Wikipedia: "According to Hubbard, some past traumas may have been deliberately inflicted in the form of "implants" used by extraterrestrial dictatorships such as Helatrobus to brainwash and control the population. Hubbard's lectures and writings include a wide variety of accounts of complex extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in earthly events, collectively described by Hubbard as "space opera." " Sound religious practice there, huh? L Ron Hubbard should have been shot for intorducting Scientology's idiocy tot he world. Like people don't believe in enough crazy crap. Britney has enough trouble remembering to put panties on let alone trying to remember if ET screwed with her mind a few thousand years ago so that she would be forced to take drugs in 2007. Give it up Brit...I can't wait to see you crash and burn like Anna Nicole. You are a waste of skin.

She may not see her behavior, I didn't until my husband of 1 year videotaped me on a 3 day remodel of my dining room. I had been up 2 full days and nights when he decided something needed done, video taped me and pointed out that I had started the project days earlier and hadn't slept. After sleeping 16 hours he took me to see a doctor who referred me to a psychologists who after treating me for a little over a year. The fact is it took someone who cared enough not to care if I got mad to make me see what I was doing to myself and those who cared for me. I do agree that getting her into therapy and church would help her feel not so alone and help her see that there is a better way.

I think that britney has never been allowed to be herself. She has had to live this life her mother created for her at a young age. She has tried to break out on her own and have her own voice with much flak. Most of us cannot relate to what it must be like as a celebrity, having the power to buy any piece of clothing we want, to live in mansions, to get a 500 dollar haircut, travel the world. Most of us have to save money for one year just to take a two week vacation with the family. And most of us aren't buying a t-shirt that costs 250 dollars. We go to Target, so now, we don't understand Britney, we don't understand celebrity. What happened is that she met Federline who isn't under her celebrity spell. Britney didn't know how to handle someone who doesn't do as she commands, and I think that really caused her to freak out. It's not that she doesn't want to be responsible, it's that she doesn't know how to be herself without her celebrity power and that is screwing her up royally. What she needs is someone to help her get to know herself so she can operate from that place, rather than that of the celebrity. The celebrity is just the mask that allows you to utilize your true nature for the benefit of others (not the self). Good luck and bless that girl.

Brittney, Lindsay Lohan and all the others like them are proof positive that it is the parents who are responsible for the maturation of their children. Because these parents are money hungry mongrels with only that in mind, they sacrifice their children for it. Brittney's a basket case and has no idea how to handle herself much less children of her own. She is a danger to herself and anyone she is in close contact with at this time. The courst are correct in taking her children away from her. Money does not solve everyday problems like she and many others would like to believe. Ask Paris, she learned and hopefully will provide somewhat of an example of what not to do.

I THINK OTHER DIAGNOSIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED SUCH AS POSTPARTUM PSYCOSIS.
