Verdict on I Feel Fine
I Feel Fine is a drama following a teenager who suddenly shows signs of suicidal OCD. It follows him learning to understand his condition and his friends and family supporting him. Leading to them trying to help him in a battle they don’t understand.
This is a powerful drama exploring a little-known condition, which is hard for people to understand. It looks at Suicidal OCD, a condition where someone has no signs of depression, but becomes obsessed with killing himself. This condition should be spoken about more, but it is nearly impossible to understand having it. It is an important movie that should be watched and then taught to people to help others learn how to survive.
Where to Watch
I Feel Fine will go on wide theatrical and streaming release from September 10 to coincide with National Suicide Prevention Day.
Final Thoughts –I Feel Fine is a powerful and thought-provoking movie.
