Just finished watching on Netflix and had to leave my review here. As a psychologist and health care worker I would like to give kudos to the actors, they really portrayed their characters so well. Loved the ending quote about “being on the border of what is normal and abnormal”. This quote really summed up the topic on mental health. Also loved how the series covered the stigma that families of patients with mental illness faces and how it shows the importance of family being involved in the patients journey. I often have to explain to people that people with mental illness are not different, and their mental illness arises from multiple factors like environmental factors, social factors, institutional factors which were beautifully portrayed in the series. So what then is the concept of what is norma and what is abnormal which originated from phenomenology back in the past from where mental ill patients were seen as abnormal and thereby isolated, some where even seen as witches and has to be burned on a stake.
Sorry for the ranting, just love watching series that speaks about mental health, series like this helps in sharing awareness about what mental health is and the stigma that comes with being mentally ill. ???????????
