I don't know abt mental illness even i feel the same as u do...but then when i see her obsessive nature...it makes me feel she is suffering from a mental illness...OCD is the name of her illness...its a dangerous mental illness...if she is being treated in a mental hospital...she would be isolated as such people are unpredictable and can do anything...how i know...my aunt is a psychiatrist...and to be honest..understanding a mental condition patient is the most difficult task..psychiatrist is the most difficult subject in medicine...
I think all the talk about mental illness is up give her an excuse and absolve her of all her responsibilities.
It is like that they do not have a courage to show to greedy manipulating woman as a lead. They want to tell us -- see maya is good girl and all this is not her fault because she has a bad past.
