I don't understand why people on Twitter are completely ignoring the blatant lie in her video that she fell to the floor and had to be helped up? We've all seen the video, and she clearly didn't fall to the floor at any point. They're all just still gunning for the security guard and the player, and have latched on to her insincere comment about violence against women.
At this stage, I don't even know if she's aware that she's lying (surely she must be aware that the video shows she didn't fall) and is just deliberately going with the untrue statement knowing that she can do and say what she wants and her fans will defend her anyway, or if she's so unwell she's completely deluded and can no longer tell fact from fiction.
Either way, going along with her false narrative is certainly not going to help her, and will only encourage her lies and or delusions.

It’s really awful, because what would have happened to that person if there was no video evidence supporting them? It’s not just a shades-of-gray interpretation, it’s a complete untruth. Even if it was just iffy memory she can watch the video for herself anytime!
She uploaded a video saying she was knocked to the ground by that security guard and her friend had to pick her up off the floor. Whoever buys her book, take what you read with a huge pinch of salt because her reality is totally skewed.
She does realise someone filmed it and proves 90% of her claims are lies. Good luck publishers it will sell like hotcakes but it’s going to be another Spare affair and be ripped apart I feel.
She's not helping herself at all. Why on earth keep on with the narrative that she was purposefully shoved to the ground when we all know it didn't happen? And she fully believes it, too. Which makes me wonder, is Sam validating this skewed reality behind the scenes? I've never agreed with quite the amount of hate he gets because let's be real, guy can't do right for doing wrong. If he had her committed they'd say he was just like her father, if he does nothing he's an enabler and a toxic influence. But it makes me wonder.
The "too much" "too much" should have been cut before they uploaded the video. The poor girl can't trust no one, she probably thinks she can trust her husband but I've my doubts about him.

I don’t like having to do loads to my hair and I hate having it messed with. If I had Britney’s money, I’d have a buzz cut and an entire wardrobe of great wigs in all the colours. Send them off to the hairdresser for some tlc every so often, done.

If I had to put money on it I would say any therapy she had during her conservatorship was a waste of time, she would have thought everything was being ‘fed back’ and she wouldn’t have been open and honest, she would’ve been guarded/lying/hostile/something like that and I would also say she hasn’t seen a therapist since it ended.
I have a mental health condition that gives me horrible verbal ticks - it's like a dissociative thing, if I'm going to have a PTSD flashback, my brain goes into overdrive to do anything to distract me. The words are nonsense and are usually echolalia (repeating something you heard somewhere else). So I might say something innocent like "Smithers!" Or I might say something horrible like "Please kill me." I'm not actually speaking to anyone, it's just an unstoppable tic. I usually try to cover my mouth with my hand, but even then you can still tell I'm saying something.
Last year I left a job I loved because it was customer facing, and the stress was making my tics get worse. Something I was saying a lot at the time was "Cut my hair off", which I don't know where that's from or what it means, but obviously it makes me look insane. It's really sad for me that I have to go around saying these things, because people avoid me since I look like I'm dangerously deranged, which I'm not. My workplace were kind and said "You mustn't try to suppress the tics because it's not your fault you have this disability"... but I just knew that I can't work serving customers when I randomly say things that could scare them. It's not like every single time it happens, I can say "Sorry, it's just a tic, I didn't mean it", especially to someone I'm only ever going to interact with for 20 seconds.
So I left that job. I was completely heartbroken, but I knew I had to do it. I got a job where I can work in an office alone so that I don't have the humiliation of people seeing my tics and I don't upset other people with them. I deliberately have to not have relationships, because I know that the heightened emotions make me too unstable and I can't behave properly. I took myself off social media for years because (like a certain someone!) I wrote embarrassing stuff on there when I was crazy.
I've been in therapy for many years and I'm on a lot of medication, so I've made a load of progress in the past decade, but at this rate it looks like I'll always be very far from a normal life. But (to toot my own horn) because I am a nice and thoughtful person, I do these things to limit damage to other people. It's heckin' sad for me to be unable to have a life that other people take for granted, but I have integrity: I know I'm mentally ill to the extent that I can't control some things, so I have to do the best with what I can control. I do that because I understand that other people are as important as I am, and I don't have a free pass to hurt them.
Even this woman I know who has major mental health issues, is very difficult and does a lot of drugs, recognised that her mental health was too bad to care for her cats, so she gave them to her sister who has a nice home for them.
When Britney posts about how awful her sons are for not speaking to her, we see that she has never had a moment of clarity or empathy like "I want them to be happy, and maybe the way I behave is too much for them." It's possible that she can't control how she behaves, but in that case she has to allow that other people might have to avoid her.
Britney was in 24 hour care for years because of her mental health and behaviour, yet she has never admitted that she has ANY problems. She always comes out guns blazing "Other people are the problem, I will behave however I want." Who can be in the most serious mental health conservatorship for years and not once wonder if they might actually have problems? Even if there was nothing wrong with you, it would cross your mind, right?
There is such a thing as "lack of insight" which means when someone is so ill that they are far removed from reality so they don't think they're being weird. But even if she doesn't think she's mentally ill, she knows she's shaking her bum on Instagram, she knows she's doing [whatever it is that makes that poor doggy so tense around her], and I personally think she's doing drink and drugs, which she will also know about. Yet she never has had one moment of "Maybe it's embarrassing for my sons that they can see their mom shaking her butt in front of millions or people." "Maybe if the dog doesn't like me, I should find out what I need to do to make him feel at ease." "Why do all my friends stop speaking to me, am I doing something wrong?" "I shouldn't have said Xtina was chubby, that would obviously be hurtful." "There is dog tit on the floor, am I really ok with that?" Nothing, nada, ever. To this extent, Britney knows how she acts. She just doesn't want to be held accountable. If she thought her behaviour was ok, why would she hide her drink and drug use?
Sorry, I think I write these huge posts because of my cognitive problems
I really enjoyed reading this (not sure if ‘enjoyed’ is the right way to phrase the part within the spoiler, but I hope you know what I mean. I’ve always thought Britney didn’t give much thought to others but it was interesting to hear about and look at it from a different perspective.
I think the last bit with the sunglasses and the "Too much" was a little skit they wrote together, which was meant to be like Britney doing something cute and weird, and Sam's last line would be funny. But because Brit is very ill, she can't do comic timing, or make it clear that she's meant to be goofing around.
If she can’t tell the truth about something that happened on video how do we know what is truth anymore from her.
