[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition to being an addict, Kim also appears to suffer from psychological problems, which I think is the underlying issue. I would guess she has a personality disorder.

Kim provokes and concerns others with her unstable and disturbing behavior, and instead of acknowledging her role in creating the situation, she chooses to focus on the reactions of other people independent of her behavior.

She sees her emotions and feelings as a carte blanche to say whatever she pleases without ever stopping to think about how her actions affect other people. She, like Brandi, feels justified in saying whatever she wants when she feels hurt, and she doesn't take responsibility for her role in creating the situation.

It's not reasonable to act doped up, say nasty things to another person (Lisa R and Kyle) out of NOWHERE and then get angry and defensive when people question your behavior and sobriety. If you don't want people to acknowledge the elephant in the room, then stop bringing the elephant in the room. This is incredibly childish and narcissistic.

Kim somehow thinks that Lisa R is hurting her children by being concerned if Kim is using, even after Kim admitted to using something? If anyone has hurt Kim's children, it's Kim. Once again Kim refuses to take responsibility for her actions (which is probably the most important thing one must do to truly recover from addiction). Kim is a very sick woman.

Totally agree.  The thing is, her kids wouldn't cut her off because someone accused her of not being sober.  They would drop her because she's not actually sober.  Any intelligent person would realize that.  And she took the pill- I think it's pretty unheard of for addicts to just be able to pop pills when they want and jump back on the wagon. Lisa has ever right to be concerned especially with her history.

I can only imagine how awful Kim has been to her kids during arguments, after seeing this.  It really makes me feel so bad for them.  She just seems to be totally without any kind of filter or scruples about what you cannot say to another human being.  [/quote]

I completely disagree with most of this.  Yes, Kim took a pain pill and absolutely shouldn't have.  But it happened once and the women are never going to let her forget it.  I don't believe she's been using at all with the exception of the poker night when she (stupidly) took the pain pill.  Every moment of every scene, they are interrogating her about her sobriety - because of that ONE instance.  They're absolutely neurotic about it.  As for Lisa's history with her brothers-in-law, her husband, and her sister - that's her own burden to carry, not Kim's.  She seems to constantly be extrapolating her own experiences onto Kim, whom she really doesn't even know.  I hate it when people say, "Well, this and this happened to ME, so I have to keep talking about it to make sure it doesn't happen to YOU!"  I love Lisa R., but this whole "coming from a good place" thing has gotten out of hand.  I think Kim told her very clearly and succinctly on the plane to please stop bringing it up, but Lisa just won't back off.

I don't think anyone comes off looking good in this last episode, but if I were Kim, I would have probably reacted in the same way after being constantly hounded at every turn by these women.  If she was actually drinking or using again, then sure - they'd have every right to try and get her into treatment.  But she's not.  She made one dumb mistake and has already owned it.  The other women need to find something else to obsessively focus on - like maybe their own lives![/quote]
