whose self-care includes looking at a lot of things on the internet

help me?

Anyone know of a good movie (or documentary) that addresses stigma in mental health?

Or a movie about someone struggling with a psychological condition/mental illness?

I have to watch a movie of this sort and write about how it approaches or defines the illness and how it depicts the course of treatment, if any, how effective it is, how socially acceptable it is, etc. etc.

Movies considered and vetoed for random reasons (mainly that I just don’t want to (re)watch them) include: A Beautiful Mind; Rain Man; Girl, Interrupted.
