Unfortunately, the movie chooses not to delve into the ironies and social details of Susanna's memoirs. Instead, the script by Mangold, Anna Hamilton Phelan and Lisa Loomer opts to focus on Susanna's interactions with her fellow mental patients and their nostalgic antics. They laugh. They fight. They sneak out at night to bowl a few frames in the basement.

Have you ever confused a dream with life?
Or stolen something when you have the cash?
Have you ever been blue?
Or thought your train moving while sitting still?
Maybe l was just crazy.
Maybe it was the ' s. Or maybe l was just a girl... ... interrupted.
Put her in restraints. Withdraw blood. Hold on. Give her five milligrams of Valium, IV. Turn her head so she doesn't aspirate.
There you go.
Aspirin fragmentsand vodka, I think.
Don't tell me what you think.Take it to the lab.
.... I know what it's liketo wanna die.
How it hurts to smile.
How you try to fit in, but you can't.
How you hurt yourself on the outside... ...to try to kill the thing on the inside.
Last night, he said this.: l don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it really doesn't matter with me now... ...because l've been to the mountain top.
It means "I don't care."
That's what it means.
Ambivalence suggests strong feelings opposition. The prefix, as in ambidextrous... ...means "both."
The rest of it, in Latin,means "vigour."
The word suggests that you are torn... ...between two opposing coursesof action.
Will I stay or will I go? Am I sane or am I crazy?
"What world is this? What kingdom? What shores of what worlds?"
...Polly could be Minnie Mouse and then...
...she'd be hugged, kissed and loved...
...and no one would know what's inside that giant head.
And maybe everyone out there is a liar. And maybe the whole world... ...is stupid and ignorant. But I'd rather be in it. I'd rather be fucking in it... ...than down here with you.
The point is control. Yeah, and here I am, in control, off meds... ...no headaches, sleeping sound.
Declared healthy... ...and sent back into the world.
My final diagnosis.: A recovered borderline.
"Highs and lows increasingly severe. Controlling relationships with patients. No appreciabIe response to meds. No remission observed. Borderline Personality Disorder. An instability of selfimage, relationships and mood. Uncertainty about goals. Impulsive in activities that are self-damaging... ...such as casual sex."
WeII, that's me.
PS: We're rare, and mostly men.
-Lisa thinks she's hot shit because she's a sociapath.
