Placed under administrative supervision for years, Britney Spears was released on September 29, 2021, after years of fierce struggle to regain her freedom. Her father and guardian, Jamie Spears, was accused of abusing the singer and her sanity to control her career, personal life and bank account. Since her freedom, Britney Spears has been determined to denounce those who have abused her for years.
In April 2019, a former member of the singer’s legal team revealed that Britney Spears had been locked up in a psychiatric institution for four months, at the request of her father and against her will. The reason ? She refused to take her treatment for her bipolar disorder. This July 24, 2022, Britney Spears shared screenshots of old messages dating from this period. The artist wishes to prove that she had indeed asked for help in the face of the abuses she suffered under guardianship, without response: “It’s a little different when you have proof,” she writes. The conversations revealed by the singer testify to her loneliness in this affair. Britney Spears deletes them less than an hour after they were posted.
“I feel like he is trying to kill me”
« Il [le médecin] wants to increase the dose of Seraquil. I thought it was to help me sleep, but it’s for bipolar disorder,” she wrote to her mother, Lynne Spears. “I feel all the bad medicine in my stomach. I feel like he’s trying to kill me. The singer then contacts her friend, Jansen Fitzgerald: “Is it really healthy [ce traitement] ? I feel like you’re gonna say I’m gonna be fine but I feel like that doesn’t make sense. »
