Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen is a memoir about her experience in a psychiatric hospital after being diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. The book chronicles her life as a young woman navigating mental illness, offering a raw and honest perspective on her struggles with identity, sanity, and self-worth. Kaysen reflects on the blurred lines between normalcy and madness, while detailing her interactions with other patients and the psychiatric system. Through poignant and fragmented storytelling, she questions societal definitions of “normal” and examines how psychiatric institutions label and treat those they deem different. The narrative is both a personal exploration and a critique of mental health treatment in the 1960s.
