My Mad Fat Diary (2013–2015)

It's a good show, but it's infuriating
15 August 2019
It's based on a real story. That's even more infuriating.

Rae is an unbelievably selfish, horrible, narcissistic and self loathing creature.

So many people saw so many qualities in her they loved for some reason, all I saw was a bad friend, bad daughter, bad girlfriend, bad patient, etc. The worst part? Everyone looks the other way and forgives blindly, no matter if she's almost caused a death, hurt someone deeply, taken all privileges for granted or felt so sorry for herself she was oblivious to the fact that other humans have needs and feelings too.

What a perfect example of a terrible human. Poor mental health is not a licence to destroy people around you.

Again, it's based on a true story so I'm speaking directly to the real Rae Earl, too.
