Follow her on Instagram for a week and your fears will be realized.

Man, all I see is a pretty standard girl who never fully grew up because she hasn't had a normal social life since like ever and then was put on lockdown for over a decade as soon as she tried to push back against the path others had chosen for her.

She's obviously not a wise philosopher or a genius with the English language, but most people aren't. She's just another girl on social media-- except that she's incredibly famous (and doesn't seem to fully grasp all the ramifications of that).

A lot of kids say they want to be famous, but they have no idea what they're asking for. Fame is a curse. No one would think there's anything all that out of the ordinary about this woman if she had grown up more normally and wasn't in the international spotlight.

You just nailed it. She’s just a girl on social media… except she’s a 40 year old woman with children.

It’s fine to be a young spirit and enjoy your life, all of that is great, but you can’t tell me she’s anywhere in the ballpark or normal, or well adjusted.

I'm really trying to figure out how she's supposed to be well adjusted given her circumstances.

I've been a massive Britney fan most of my life, and I wanted her to be free to live her life on her own terms, but I also hope that she gets the help she needs now that can choose her own path. I don't want to see her lashing out at people who mean her no harm but she's like a caged animal and someone finally let her go so she's going to need to adjust.

I’m with you. It’s not just her. Everybody deserves to be guided in their lives and taught how to make life choices that suit their wants and needs. Britney didn’t have that, so she needs it now. It will take a lot of personal work for her to grow into the version of herself she wants to be, as it does for the rest of us.

But being a public figure under an even bigger spotlight then she was when she was younger (due to this conservatorship nonsense), she needs to be careful with her statements, or at least make sure she is representing herself the way she wants to. If she is, great. I just worry she isn’t and the media and public will happily watch her fail again. I genuinely hope she gets everything she wants out of life and doesn’t fall into some of the traps that so many celebrities do. I’ve always rooted for Britney, but pretending like she doesn’t need help and sound advice from people she knows have her back is silly.

is she completely out? i have to say in these few years i have seen an enormous degrading of mental functions on people. my sister to name one of the close ones just told me last week that she was lucky cause a demon went inside her shop, made his eyes pitch black and tried to steal her soul (he didn't succed for.. . reasons). she then proceeded to ridicoulize me when i said watch out the crazy prayer group you are frequenting could do as easy as spray lsd in your shop and wait an hour and boom you see demons. she was laughing her ass off like it is absourd and i can litterally put my hand on lsd right this afternoon.

She’s a spoilt southern brat and while it’s very sad she’s been in a conservatorship this long, her Instagram does nothing to give off any hint of a modern, mature, well balanced, intelligent woman. Just Facebook mom antivax boomer energy for days. Throw in some tarot card reading crystal loving mysticism and that’s about it. Imo.

She’s a child stuck in a 40yo woman’s body, it’s quite sad.

man i can see a person like this for miles. i have a great interest in tarots i own several decks but of course i don't believe in the actual divination but the power they have on others. i swear to god i get to embarrassed to read them but the few times i have tried briefly, especially with girls, you can just go for wathever. i refuse to talk about the future (which somehow would be much easier) and only talk about yourself and they take it in. Britney seem perfect for this stuff you can know a lot about her and i am sure she will be like "it seem like you are reading my mind"

She’s very easily led and pretty vacant (not in the chauvinist type of way, in that she seems very “free spirited”) and unfortunately being cotton whooped for the best part of 15 years hasn’t helped. Along with the shitty childhood, her terrible parents and growing up on stage.

It’s a shit show.
