Pretty privilege gone wrong is my best assessment. A woman witnesses a policemans murder so she backs out of being a witness, due to extreme PTSD. This is never clear when you actually watch the movie, you would have had to read the description to even know this important part of a ridiculous movie, or make it 30 minutes in to when she says pretty much that.
It starts with our girl in the throes of her panic attacks. She sees villains who aren't there, has an actual cop knock on her door to menacingly intimidate her at home about how she needs to do whats right. She attempts to buy groceries but even that is too much. She doesn't appear to have a job, either. No worries, just get on Youtube & stumble across a random video of a guy selling self help. Apply, click, done. Don't forget a super hot selfie with your online application to random self help bro. Take train to remote, high security location of Youtube bro. Pro tip: don't scream when he breaks out the zip ties for your wrists. No worries, he pops them right off, he's just "unconventional", he knows you won't be calling any cops for help, anyway. You will be totally cured in no time, your imaginary friends told you so.
There was a real chance here to address an actual serious mental health issue, lack of professional compassion, serious points about law enforcement, but it comes off as mockery & falls short in the logic department, something hard to get past in a slow burn story line like this. It wants to be so many things and ends up as a strained, boring story.
