But she was difficult to live With, as you might imagine.

She said her mood swings

Were part of her Creative process.

And even after she was Diagnosed as a manic depressive,

She refused to accept it.

So she, too, stopped Taking her lithium.

And then one day,

She was having a fight With her boyfriend,

And she ran into the Middle of the street

To get away from him.

And uh...

The driver of the car Never saw her coming.

I'm sorry.

-jamie,

Why did you stop Taking your medication?

It was for the fun, you know?

The rush.

And now it's Endorsements and sponsors,
