My Comments: I've always really liked the idea of fics that revolve around mental illness of some sort. I haven't read as many fics as some people I know have, but I've had to stop reading a lot of the mental hospital and mental illness fics I've started because they're not very well written. There's nothing wrong with this particular plotline, but I just find it really cliché when the story goes like: A has a mental illness or psychological problems of some sort, A meets B (who's works at a mental hospital or is a psychologist or whatever and also has problems of some sort), A and B fall in love and their problems are magically solved. Whereas some parts of this fic match that cliché plotline, the overall story is written realistically (although I can't say for sure because I've never been in a mental hospital before) and there are also some parts that are far from cliché. I like that, and it's the more realistic depression/psychological fics that attract me.
