This is so articulate and insightful. I hope this is evidence that she has found help and support that she trusts.
Protect her at all costs
I still can’t believe how long they got away with trotting her out and forcing her to work while she was allegedly incapable of making decisions about her own life by blackmailing her with her kids. Her own family.
Britney has had my heart all these years. Her humanity should never be questioned or disrespected. And yet she is constantly crying out to be seen and treated as a person. She isn’t perfect. She is just trying to make something of her life and deserves room to do so.Â
As someone with bipolar disorder, I get a little parasocial with Britney Spears. Seeing her struggles, I’m so grateful for the support systems I have in my life and wish she could have the same.
It shouldn’t be the job of her children, but I hope they can find a way to support her. I’ve had to support my own dad through his bipolar disorder struggle and it’s hard. I can’t imagine having to do it with a celebrity parent.
Damn this is just sad.
I will always be on her side. But the motherfucker belt buckle comment is so left field that I snorted audibly.
it’s been so wild seeing the public constantly turning on her again, “she should be free to do what she wants … Oh she shouldn’t do that!” Like I remember people criticizing her dancing that, she was to old for that. Like yeah I wouldn’t do that but I also wasn’t not able to do anything I wanted for 15 years. She’s living her life and figuring things out and it’s sucks she has to do so so publicly. I hope she keeps her positive attitude and have fun living life.
This thing she has with Christina is so sad. Must be like watching herself in a (much better) parallel universe đź’”. I’ve always thought those times shes lashed out or has been weird about her come from misplaced resentment because of that. I think that would torture most people let alone someone as vulnerable as Britney.
Fuck Jamie and Lynn. God I loathe them.
Freedom of choice means you make mistakes. And she’s been 15 years out of making choices for herself and that’s a tough situation.
She should be judged like a very sheltered 20 something. That’s what her skillset is.
She’s right when she talks about being judged. She is, and not kindly. Sometimes it was tolerant, but not kindly. And what she needs is kindness.
I’ll always feel sad for Britney and wish her the best. I’ve worked with conservatorship situations and there are cases where it’s truly necessary and a lot of conservators genuinely exercise their duty of care admirably. That wasn’t the case for her. What Britney’s family did to her almost makes you wish hell was real because they’d deserve it.
“to kill the most beautiful part of a person… the soul, the girl of who they are” 🥺🥺🥺
Honestly happy to hear she’s doing better?
They really are foils of each other. Such parallel beginnings, but Christina was able to break free from her father and be free but poor Britney was trapped for so long.
For me the saddest thing about her story is it does seem like she needed help. She wasn’t in the right mental state to make her own decisions and her own father used the power he was legally given over her to exploit her. By the time she was put in the conservatorship she had already made enough money that her grandchildren would never have to work but he wanted more so instead of getting her the help she needed he forced her to keep working.
I have two daughters and I will never understand how a father could do that.
That poor poor woman. You see those videos of her dancing and everyone saying look, she needs the conservatorship. But the women you see today is a product of that environment. A product of Trousersnake laughing about taking her virginity, of Federline Express making himself rich off her talent, of her sister openly mocking her whilst dining on her credit card. Of her parents practically enslaving her ..
This makes me so sad. I wish her life had been so different. She needs help, but there are obvious and justifiable reasons why she doesn’t have anyone to trust.
It is so ugly what they did to her. Her own family. The people she trusted the most. its a trauma hard to fix. I will always be on her side and i send her love and support. Brit we love you❤️ and always will❤️ you are a kind soul
I’m so incredibly sad and hurt for her. This is devastating to read. I know it sounds dramatic but as a strong empath, I hate seeing people hurt and down.
There is nothing that makes you go crazy faster than your family taking the stance that you are crazy.
Seems like she’s discovering who she is while simultaneously learning how to be an adult after so many years of being fully controlled. I don’t blame her for being in this situation. I hope she’s able to find a solid group of people with genuine intentions to guide her through a positive road in life. Sounds like a nightmare having your life on display for the whole world! Wishing her the best!
It takes a long time to process trauma. For something like this, 15 years of having your freedom restricted by your own family…I just can’t imagine. I wish people understood better that she has to go through her own healing process, it’s not as simple as getting out of the conservatorship and boom everything’s fine now.
I truly wish her well. I hope Xtina reaches out to her.
Her entire situation is utterly tragic. I can’t read or watch anything about her without being heartbroken. It makes me too sad for the state of our mental health system.
Not to be that guy, but now that the conservatorship has ended she can improve her life and get better but clearly she’s not looking for help. People should stop supporting her in being delusional
They broke this woman and through her own sheer will she has put herself back together. It might not look like it to us, but I believe her path is her own and there’s a method to what looks like madness. Wishing her continued healing and the freedom to make mistakes on her own terms. 🙏🏻
