Good job, Free Britney! Yay!


She may have addiction issues and a mental illness but so do millions of Americans...they don't get put under conservatorships. She is lucky to have full-time security guards and a ton of money that will take her another decade to spend down even if she spends like a maniac.


She needs a conservatorship or longterm hospitalization.


Kanye west also reportedly has uncontrolled mental illness, behaves very erratically and spends like crazy. Why does the conversation around Britney go immediately to conservatorship? I’ve never heard mention of a conservatorship with respect to Kanye.

A lot of you seem unable to use common sense.

1. Kanye literally has no one to look after him. The single mom who raised him is dead, his old friends like Jay-Z have distanced themselves, and the Kardashian Koven has thrown him away now that they’re done using him. There’s no one to seek a conservatorship because no one cares for him.

2. Conservatorships are for people who need protection. Kanye is the serial victimizer in his situation, as most mentally ill men are. It stands to reason that Kanye is perceived as not needing a conservatorship because HE is the threat to others. Others aren’t a threat to him and there’s no evidence he’s a threat to himself, completely out of touch with reality (sorry, disliking his views doesn’t mean he no longer comprehends reality) or too strung out on drugs to function.

Similar to how MIA is mentally unstable and lost custody of her son, but no one talks conservatorship with her because there’s no evidence she’s being taken advantage of, as opposed to being aggressive and paranoid towards others. Like Kanye, there’s also no evidence that MIA is a danger to herself or too strung out on drugs to function.


Doesn't Britney have a record of being out of control and violent? She is not only a victim here.



The thing is, if someone is controlled down to their meals for years, they might blow a gasket. She obviously has some issues but some of what she did sounds like a normal human response to being controlled, abused, and micromanaged as an adult for more than a decade. But, since she’s a woman, people are quick to write her off as the problem and assume the best of her dad, despite the fact that there’s way more evidence that he was abusive and controlling than there is that she’s on any drugs at all.

“Woman crazy, man hero” story has played out dozens of times and Taylor Swift has written more than a few songs about it.

I’m sure she needed help. But not from her dad - or any of the men in her life, apparently.


Do you have any experience with a family member who is severely mentally ill? I do a lot, unfortunately. This isn’t a gender issue that she doesn’t need control from the men in her life. It’s complex and there are no easy answers. None. And it doesn’t just effect the ill person, it effects the entire family. In this case, she has 2 children. She is a danger to them. Just because people liked her as a pop star or she comes across as fun and friendly doesn’t mean she should even be alone with her children. It also doesn’t mean she should have free range over all her decisions.

Plenty of bipolar and other mentally ill people refuse medication and think they don’t need help. Then their chaos and horrible decisions become the orbit of everyone around them.

Britney is worse off today.


It can be true that Britney is mentally ill and needs help.
It can also be true that conservatorship is not the right instrument to get that help to her, particularly with her grifter family who took a lot of her money and didn't help equip her with the skills to parent, budget or adult properly.
She has plenty of money to hire the help she needs in a way that doesn't involve a conservatorship.
She's not a danger to her kids. They're nearly adults and she barely sees them. She's not driving them around in her lap anymore.


It does not make sense to allow a mentally ill person to make decisions and "just live." It's why we have so many unhoused, mentally ill people living on the streets.

It's clearly due to mental illness. It's sad that there's nobody in her life to dissuade her from posting these videos, which aren't helping her image. It seems that she's alienated those who care (complicated by the fact that her family used her as a cash cow) and is surrounded by sycophants. This woman could use some real guidance in her life.

You can not force an adult to get help when you can not prove they are a danger to themselves or others. You may not agree with their choices, and they may even choose to live on the streets, but that is the nature of living in a free society.

That's the point. Britney shouldn't be treated more strictly than other mentally ill people just because she's rich and famous and has grifter parents who want to sponge off of her. If she wants to waste away her fortune, that's her prerogative. You may not like it, but mentally ill people (and people who are not mentally ill) are both allowed to make bad choices.


Conservatorships usually come into the conversation when competency is questioned. Many mentally ill people are still competent and make whatever bad decisions they want but if someone is incompetent and doesn’t fully understand the reality around them or the consequences of their choices, then the conservatorship is to protect them and their assets - from themselves and from others. It isn’t about having a mental illness or not, it’s about competence or lack there of.


And as crazy as Britney is she knows right from wrong. She wants to make bad choices and has the right to it

The woman she had as her conservator the last two years seemed to have a good relationship with her. I think that is why Britney was doing well as they seemed to have found a balance between Britney having autonomy and freedom in some things but the conservator managing the bigger picture.

Had they stayed with the professional conservator she had and also kept the professional financial conservator that was in the place the last 6 months...she might be in a much better place than she is now.

Britney's issues were with her family.

She’s referred to her conservatorship as jail . She probably thinks she has lots in common with her jailbird beau and she likely doesn’t see the financial difference and gap between them as any reason to be wary. This all makes sense in her head I’m sure

Should she die if she’s ugly?


I don’t think she’s going to die any time soon. Fools live a long time and don’t age or change.

That’s an Old Southern saying . Britney probably heard it too

Obviously none of us know what's really going on, but I don't think she has any grip on reality. I think she has severe untreated mental illness and drug and alcohol problems. I think she has enough mental clarity to think in terms of good or bad or right or wrong.

When Britney talks, it's clear she's never matured out of her teen years. She sounds REALLY young and barely literate. People with bipolar disorder benefit from a highly structured life, and I doubt she has ever known anything other than performing, but it seems very off that someone with her kind of conservatorship should have had a grueling 4 year Vegas residency. I don't think she was in the right situation before, but she's clearly worse off now.

Conservators are usually for dementia patients or those that are physically or otherwise mentally impaired . Britney is able to drive and get around in LA. She’s not that mentally incapacitated that her faculties have declined and she’s in need of round the clock care.


She’s just dumb and makes bad choices with money and men and parenting but those are her choices to make . There are lots of train wrecks around that don’t have their parents as conservators .
