I guess my bipolar disorder and my experiences don't count and I shouldn't talk about them because, by your definition, they aren't "raw and real". I've only been hospitalized twice, neither times I was dehumanized or humiliated during my stay (well, except there was a clique of patients who took a dislike to me) but the doctors and staff treated me well and actually listened to what was going on.
nah, that's not what I mean. But compare K.flay or Emilie Autumn... or even Alanis Morissette (I know she is not bipolar, but she's been troubled certainly) and their expressions to Catherine's bipolar on red carpet. I just don't buy it. It's not about her, but about her narrative... and I don't buy it.

Btw, I never been hospitalized... that's not what makes you real. It's not about pissing contests of who's got it worse... But I can relate to Emilie Autumn. Or the beatnik authors when they talk about how to sucks to be in your skin. I can't relate to CZJ's poses on red carpet and bipolar as tagline.
