Although I am far more honest and functional than the main character is, I can really relate to her level of struggle, relational dysfunction, isolation, hopelessness, and loneliness. There have been times in my life where I have been about as close to giving up on life as she was and the fact that the writing and acting rang true to me is a testament to the talent that went into it. I even relate to her excessive love of cats. The plot and sets are simple which adds to the realism. The acting is so good that I felt like I was watching real people. Mainly I was left feeling sad for those who struggle like her and the victims that fall prey to their dysfunction.
