Review of In My Skin

In My Skin (2018– )
7/10
Stick with it, it gets better
9 May 2022
If you were tempted to stop watching after the first 5 minutes of the first episode, which made it seem like this would be a cheap, exaggerated rip off of Skins (referring to the cringy scene in the park where Beth is drinking with her friends), then trust me - stick with it!

Thankfully we see less of the insufferable character that is Lydia (completely over after and unrealistic performance from the actress that portrayed her) as the season progresses.

It turns into the most realistic onscreen depiction of bipolar disorder that I've ever seen, and the difficulties that come with being the loved one of a person struggling with BPD.

Decent viewing, solid 7/10.
