Jean's Bipolar Breakdown | EastEnders 

Gillian Wright was incredible with this bipolar storyline👏👏👏👏

I have bipolar Believe me it's difficult.

Jean happily laughing on the Southend Rollercoaster was a very clever but subtle meaning from the writers. At a first glace you automatically think its Jean being completely innocent and getting in touch with her childish side by enjoying herself in the rollercoaster. If you look at the rollercoaster scene again you soon realise it was pointing towards a much deeper meaning about her bipolar condition and the way it makes her. The rollercoaster is all about her uncontrollable and unstable emotions left untreated or without professional help from a doctor or a psychiatrist.

This episode broke my GD heart! So well played.

Huge fan of Gillian wright who plays Jean and love the character of Jean on Eastenders x

Great to learn about this

I love Jean and I love Gillian Wright Amazing Actress she breaks my heart whatever she does 😢

This might look funny but it’s deep

Very painful to watch bipolar seems like hell for the poor sufferers my heart breaks for Jean 💔💔😞😞hospital care is vital as it can get so out of control as she put herself in very harmful situations as her illness progressed poor lady 😞😞

I have someone close to me who has bipolar and Gillian and Lacey are botn amazing. I go quite manic if im very nervous. I was concerned about it but the Doctors say its more of a shyness/antisocial thing

Down at Southend on the pier - nearly the exact same spot the Fowlers went searching for Mark all those years ago.

Lily is so good with Jean

Where ever I watch this there's always that part of me that wishes people left jean alone because even though her bipolar is out of control at the same time she just looks so happy but I always have to remind myself that even though she look and maybe even is truly happy that dosent mean she still dosent need help from her friends and family

This was ages ago.

i cant watch any episodes in Canada BC. My channel Vision stopped showing them. and then i couldnt find the ones i have missed.

Love you Eastenders ❤

Jean has been a nutter since she came on the show. Back when her hair was brown & Bianca & Pat were still on the show. How are we still dealing with her not seeing a doctor on the reg or upping her meds in 2022?

Love you guys!

Love you ❤❤❤❤❤ Ronan sweet heart xxxxxxxx

This was a while ago’

The pier at Southend - the exact spot where the Fowlers west searching for Mark all them years ago.

Hi

I don’t see how giving your mums partner advice not to marry her is helping her - I understand that Jean is not well with her bipolar but mentally sick people still deserve to have relationships and not be single for the rest of their lives- that’s part of their human rights & their disability rights

I've come here today, to rewatch this. EE has been so boring recently for me, i'm not too interested in the other storylines. as commenting, we haven't seen stacey, much of jean, theo, denise, eve, jack for like 5 weeks - i assume stacey's storyline is paused while bobby (freddie) is on strictly? I'd actually love to see if EE's viewing stats have declined both on iplayer + TV .

I can't help but find Stacey even more annoying

Me on the vodka 😂😂

😅😅

Sick and tired of them losing their marbles every minute

Lola was the only one not over reacting like the snowflakes of today . When Arthur said Aunty Jean did it, she just brushed it off how it should be. Kids now are so wishy washy

My beautiful launderette.

Stacey is so mouthy.
