“The Woman In Me” by Britney Spears: a memoir that does NOT say she has ever been mentally ill
She does say that a relative had once been hospitalized and treated with Lithium (1, p 6.), a treatment for bipolar disorder (a.k.a. manic-depression), and she does acknowledge that she, herself, Britney Spears, had had some erratic behavior.
Comment: My opinion is that she has a normal, creative version of dissociative identity, what I call “multiple personality trait,” common among novelists.
I base my opinion on the title of her memoir, “The Woman In Me”, since only people with a version of multiple personality have “people” (alternate personalities) inside them, like novelists have characters.
