Susanna Kaysen was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, while Lisa on the other hand was worse she was diagnosed as a Sociopath after being in the ward for 8 years in her life. She was later on released in the 70s. Susanna tryed to use the hospital on her way to get out. Lisas eyes saw freedom and she was a lifer she was energetic once in a while, she was different.
