I don't think there is a typical look. If she was maybe old, she might have related it to how they treated mentally ill people way back when and institutionalized them in movies and how they were portrayed then. But when I go to my p-doc, most look as normal and controlled as they can be. In fact, the person I've seen most out of control was me, when I just showed up, crying, insisting I had to see my pdoc because there was something really wrong with me. I barely talked them out of sending me inpatient. It turned out that I reacted badly to generic lamictal.
