Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to the end of the video in one go. got about halfway through and had to turn it off... then played the rest. I hate this kind of thing. I mean, yeah, Americans seem to be genetically programmed to be slightly louder than any other nation, that's ok, the rest of the world has come to terms with this; but seriously, 3 minutes of a hysterical girl screeching 'Mummy, you don't understand me!' 6 ways to sunday, into a MICROPHONE, is a bit more than I can stomach. I just wanted to slap her* and say 'stop pissing and moaning. Kill yourself. Kill yourself, now."
also, forgive me if I'm wrong, but isn't depression almost the exact opposite of hysteria? I think the poem should have been entitled 'Explaining my histrionic personality disorder to my mother' at least that would have added an element of humour and irony to the performance.
