I liked Fight Club (the book is much different and more about masculinity in the post-modern world); love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - absolutely love - one of the best understated movies ever; Primal Fear - also incredible.

Luke warm on Girl, Interrupted.

Hate Black Swan (but that might be because I was a professional dancer and I hate it for more than just the MH aspect).

Love Virgin Suicides the book - it's actually a good depiction of a suicide cluster in teens. Movie didn't really hold my interest.

Hated 13 Reasons Why. Agree with you there.

There is a book "Veronica decides to die." I thought it was very good. Maybe check it out if you're into reading.

I haven't seen Benny and June for a while but I did like it back in the day, before I had MI. So, I might feel differently now.

The last installment of Into the Dark on Hulu, entitled "The Current Occupant" I know they weren't going for what it feels like to be involuntarily committed, but WOW, it felt spot on to some institutions I had been in, and the feeling (the details of course are inaccurate) but the FEELING they got out of it, omg, I was like, if anyone wants to know what it FEELS like to be involuntarily committed - this gets the ambiance and feeling SPOT ON.

American Psycho - agree for accuracy, but dramatically, I love that film, and the films that are tangentially related to it. But agree, not really accurate.
