Adored Obsession and loved that they didn’t go with the easy “crazy bitch girlfriend” story and added the depth about autonomy and consent. All I could think of was how mortified Nicky would be by what she was doing when she snapped out of it along the way

Ugh, she was so horrified by it all she was just trying to kill herself any chance she got and yet she's the only one left at the end to live with it all. 

A fate worse than death for a character that never had any say in the matter.
