Please tell me


That I'm not the only one who cried.

Each story was so beautiful and real, and the actors were all amazing.

It still has me crying because I feel so badly for so many of the characters, both those with the mental illnesses and those who's lives are affected by it. This was a wonderful film and I liked it even better than the original Five film which I also loved.

No crying, but as someone going through serious depression I can certainly relate. One perhaps minor note that rang a bit false was Aimee Teegarden's character not knowing that Melissa Leo was mentally ill, especially if she was friends with Hyland. Plus Teegarden's character came across as quite the bitch.

I don't think Aimee Teagarden's character really cared. When it flashed back to them being little her character asked "Is your Mom gonna let us stay up all night again?" I think she probably enjoyed the "perks" of her Mom's mental illness. (excessive spending and impulsive behavior)She only really cared when they almost got into a Car wreck.

I thought the character that said that when they were younger was Izzy. The one that came to the hospital with her mom. At the park she said she always knew. The nasty one was the blonde, Olivia.

I didn't cry, but I was touched by all the stories. Very inspiring!

I cried. It was nice to have the ending positive for Lucy. As she said, it gave hope.

and finally Sofia Vassilieva gets a part suited for her as Allison, Lucy's selfish sister. Sofia can't act her way out of a paper bag. I suffered through her 'performance' on Meduim for way too long. Her self-centeredness really shown through in this part though.

When are these movies going to be on? How many have been on already?

I cried like a baby, especially at that story about the girl with the bipolar mother. My mom has borderline personality disorder, and she was not diagnosed until I was 16. It was tough to relive those feelings of having no control as a child in a home where the primary caregiver has an untreated mental illness. Luckily, my mom was eventually diagnosed, and now I have a little more pull on her choices as an adult.
