THIS was the LAST STRAW for Johnny Depp 

Folks! Baggage Claim merch is finally here. I know, I know what took so long? :) Check it out here and let me know what you think! crowdmade.com/collections/baggageclaim

The hilarious part is that Amber proved the diagnosis as soon as she got on the stand. The Doctor described her perfectly.

Notice how dr curry used “them” to describe the person who’s suffering for borderline personality disorder even though it mostly affects women; compared to dr hughes who constantly used male pronouns when talking about abusers. Dr curry comes off as professional and without a narrative to push

I was married to a woman with BPD, and I can totally relate to Johnny's situation. The "love bombing" phase of the relationship makes you feel like this person is too good to be true, and in fact they are. They pretend to have all the same interests and beliefs that you do, but in the devaluation phase you find out that isn't true. They may not have any true beliefs of their own, so they simply adopt the beliefs of the person they are with for a time. Then they switch when it is time for the devaluation phase of the relationship. Then they engage in verbal and emotional abuse. In my case my ex would resort to threats of suicide and self harm. She literally beat her head against the wall. When I put my hands around her head, so she couldn't hurt herself, she grabbed a dollar store steak knife and attempted to stab herself. I laid on the floor of the kitchen with the knife blade in my hand, restraining her from stabbing herself, for several hours until she finally gave up and went to bed. That was just one borderline fit. Others included yelling, screaming, insults, extreme intoxication, suicide and possible murder/suicide attempts. Meanwhile she bankrupted us with her crazy spending. The relationship finally ended when she found a new victim, called the police, accused me of abuse, and filed a TPO. We ended up with a Stipulated Non-contact Order, thank God. I can relate to the wanting to numb yourself with alcohol. I didn't want to be in the same room with her without a good beer buzz going on, because it would keep me from being hypervigilant and responding to the attacks. I feared going home, but I feared not going home more, because I knew that nights attack would be worse if I wasn't home on time. Being in one of those relationships is hell, especially if you don't see a way out. In retrospect, I should have left and filed for divorce within months of getting married. I didn't know what BPD was until after the relationship ended.

She was there hearing all the descriptions of the 2 personality disorders and then went and showed it on the stand. She lost this case the second she took the stand and the jury already had a summary of her personality disorders beforehand and she she did everything Dr Curry described when on the stand.

Dr curry's analysis and testimony of amber was so spot on it's insane. Watching dr curry describe how flowery ppl like amber with histronic/borderline will talk, how when they try to cry it will feel very shallow to people hearing it, externalization of blame, tendency to be self righteous and deny being it, and then judge other people heavily, and so much more. Watching dr curry testify how amber does this and tried to fake ptsd, and then watching amber testify EXACTLY like dr curry described her, was too on point it was almost unbelievable how much dr curry apparently got it right.

When you're dealing with a narcissist, even their terrible behaviour is presented as your fault: "look what you made me do", "you do this to me, you make me angry", "if you would just do what I said, I wouldn't have hit you". It took me so many years to understand it wasn't actually my fault. Narcissists drain your energy.

Poor Johnny. Compare him on the stand to Amber- Johnny is constantly fiddling, looking away, giving a wry smile as he recounts horrifying things.. he is nervous, it is causing him discomfort and shame and pain and confusion. He is genuine and clearly deeply hurt. Whereas Amber... It's so fake it's unreal. Her behaviour is just play acting, her emotions don't reflect properly .. just as Doctor Currie says. What an unhealthy, sick, abusive woman Amber is.

It's just awful hearing all the trauma Johnny Depp went through at the hands of this monster..I hope he recovers and gets on with his life without having to carry this emotion, psychological and Spiritual pain..❤️

I think in that recording where she says that him wanting space is "running away from the solution" says so much about her. That says to me that her definition of a "solution" is you stay and let me abuse you without leaving and then agree with me and back down. Sick. Shes truly demented.

Dr Curry did an excellent job of neutralising Amber’s testimony by describing what you are going to hear from her and why. It was so accurate that none of her histrionics had any effect

Dr. Curry did massive damage to amber turds case.

It took me over 7 years to leave my abusive narcissistic husband... don't let anyone tell you that just because the relationship is awful that it's easy to leave, especially when you have children together.

It was so crazy to hear Dr. Curry’s testimony then Amber’s testimony and see Amber did everything Dr. Curry brought up in her diagnosis

My heart breaks for Jonny Depp. I know he's not perfect, and made mistakes as well, but none of us are perfect, and it's a far cry from how he treated Amber, in comparison as to how Amber treated him!

What really amazes me Is that dr. Curry described in advance the histrionic behavior Amber would show days later during her deposition. I'm sure the jury could see that clearly and that was a key to the verdict. Great analysis as always!

As someone who just divorced an abusive husband, I can attest it was so hard to walk away. We didn’t have children, I wasn’t financially dependent on him, and hell, he even lived in a different state and it was hard. I absolutely feel for spouses/partners who bound by kids/money/circumstances to abusive partners because it will never get better.

I think when Johnny's mother died he'd been bracing himself for it and probably thought that once she was gone he'd be free from his past torments. But then he realized he hadn't escaped his mother, he'd married her. He wasn't free and never would be unless he let Amber go. I think once he realized Amber was just like his mother he wanted to help heal his mother through Amber. In a way after all the abuse his mother put him through her death was the key to him freeing himself from Amber clutches.

Their fear of abandonment turn them into abusive monsters. The saddest part with toxic relationships is that they are the hardest to leave

Let's stop this charade that AH felt threatened/abandoned by JD walking away from her abuse (not "a fight" but her attacking him). She was angry and got angrier because she was losing control over her target when he hid for his own safety. And she was especially angry that he didn't respond with violence, since that was her plan all along: "He hit me. Look! Look world! I'm hit! I'm down! OWWWWW! Ouch! It hurts me! I'M the victim. I'M the poor little thing can you believe this happened to ME? Pretty f*ckable ME?" "Now give me a cookie. $10 million cookies." Amber Heard is a disgusting, violent, conman. Put it in prison with the others. That's much nicer than what they would do to her in another time and place. Enough of this "she's incapable." No. She's unwilling.

What's more disturbing is that amber has a child in HER care.

If we were discussing Jenny Depp and Andre Heard, we would not say it was mutually abusive. There is a victim and an abuser. The victim’s actions are reactionary. In Johnny did his level best to disengage from the violence including running from the room, zoning out using alcohol and drugs. Amber is the abuser, treater as you would any other abuser.

Dr. Curry was so spot on. The brilliance of watching her talk about AH's diagnosis - in such detail prior to Amber taking the stand , then literally Amber acting EXACTLY like Curry's description that to the Jury, almost gave me the chills. I always wondered what was Amber feverishly writing in that notebook, while Curry was talking about her - it had to have been nonsense words, or scribbles.

The only thing I wish, is that you would upload more often!! Keep them coming!!

I just feel really bad for Johnny. At that age in your life you just want to be content and comfortable with someone. Home should be a haven, not somewhere you are afraid to go back to.

The moment I heard the recording of Amber saying "look what you make me do" I KNEW she was the problem. It was honestly chilling.

This was an extremely good compilation of videos. It must have taken a lot of work to go through all of them to find just the ones needed to show what finally triggered Johnny's decision to leave. As many of the videos as I've watched, I don't think I ever really understood why he stayed in the relationship so long. Good job!

This is triggering. 😢💔 At this stage in my life, given 2 emotionally abusive relationships and a parental abusive relationship I simply don’t have anymore empathy for disordered individuals. They cause too much damage to others. It’s sickening. This should be criminal.

The borderline will not relinquish their ‘victim’ identity. Acknowledging wrong doing gives power to the other person and this is why the borderline will never admit they’re wrong. They double down. They are skilled at blame-shifting and transfer their toxic shame onto their chosen target. The reason Amber was unwilling to let Johnny go was because he was such a rich source of narcissistic supply. The burden of her toxic shame overwhelmed her, this is why she wouldn’t let Johnny leave. She could only get her ‘release’ once Johnny took on her burden. She wouldn’t let him leave because she needed her fix in the form of narcissistic supply, nothing to do with abandonment. It’s cruel and selfish but the borderline is unbothered with the devastation they cause as long as it means they get their fix.

I was married to someone like Amber Heard. It was horrible and painful. I stayed for so much longer than I should have. It's been 12 years since I got away, but I am still reeling from the damage.

"Youll often get a sense that their behaviour is play-acting" amber: (pretends to take notes without touching pen to the paper)

I’m so sad anyone has to live thru this but Kodos to JD for exposing this. It can help a lot of ppl understand their situation! Perhaps he can free even one 💔

One of the few content creators who I will sit RIGHT through the ad and listen to the whole thing, because what you put out is so worth it. Great analysis ever time, sincere, reasonable and based. Seems like a lot of truth is getting dropped on the topic of abusive women and "toxic" femininity - but it's high time we as a society started seeing women as the complex human beings they are. True equality demands that - NOT pretending women are somehow magically equal but also BETTER.

Spot on. Doctor Curry nailed it and you analyzed her behavior perfectly. I don't think she'll ever see it and from what's happening to the truth tellers on YT ... the attacks, doxxing and cancelling by her minions, I hope you don't now have a target on your back. She goes after everyone that don't agree with her. I'm hoping truth wins out and everyone will unite to put a stop to her behavior. We can't depend on MSM to tell us the truth so people who want the real story depend on many trusted you tubers research and are told to do our own research. That's a sign of a good journalist, etc. Thank you. Follow TUG for the really deep dives into AH. Things are about to get wild. "United we stand, divided we fall" has a whole new meaning when it comes to battling this Aggressive Narcissist.

She literally then proceeded to display all these behaviours when she took to the stand and has continued to since. I cannot understand how her supporters can listen to this and think she is innocent, it soooo obvious who the abuser was. It's sad, she needs help.

This was the best summing up of the entire relationship I've heard. A simple explanation of all the trauma Johnny was put through. It was heartbreaking for him, I'm glad he managed to escape the and hope he finds peace and happiness in his life.

When you listen to Johnny, you hear such a hurt but gentle man. After all he's endured he's still come out genuine and a good person which I find admirable.

You have such a great gift for processing large amounts of information and condensing it into key points and moving? explanations. It's wonderful. Thank you.❤️

The way Johnny mentioned how "he just wanted to make it work", really hits home. I used to be in a really toxic relationship in my early 20's. Nothing physical, but we were both terrible for one another, constantly arguing and being at odds with each other. Never having had a long relationship before, we both really wanted to make it work, to find a way. We'd look at photos of old people still holding hands and stuff, going "We're gonna be like them!". After 2 years of the same old story, same old fights, we finally broke up. What's funny is that after the breakup, I somehow missed the constant arguing. THAT's how long it had been going on. I'm so happy for Johnny finally having found a way out of that terrible situation.

The more I see and hear from AH, by rewatching trial clips, interviews, PSA's and every other thing she has done, the more I can clearly see the monster that lies below the surface. I certainly hope that Johnny can heal from this and get back to who he was before he met her. From living with an abusive mother, being abandoned by his father, to being married to AH, I think he has been through enough. Thank you Johnny for being willing to put your life on display, warts and all, so that people can be educated to this hidden and under reported issue. Thank you also, Baggage Claim for an excellent, factual, well thought out expose. Keep up the excellent work!

I love how during Dr. Curry's testimony, it was one of the main times when Amber was doing her whole "taking notes" thing, which was also shown to just be her moving her pen around in the air over her pad. More acting for the cameras. Just another great video. I always come away feeling like I actually learned something and gained insight.

I relate to Johnny in so many ways, having been abused by my own mother (NPD probably) and having dating a girl who later was diagnosed with BPD. It was amazing at first, sometime later wished I hadn’t left her but watching this and having a friend of mine almost run over by his BPD wife, I can breathe a sign of relief of my choices now. Thank you for your content!

I’m not sure if enjoyed was the right word, because it made me incredibly sad. Having been through the letting go of a loved one because of their behaviour made this too real for me. I get how hard it was for Johnny to walk away, the feeling that you have failed someone, not really understanding at the time, that really they failed you. 😔

Those who never experienced what it is like being trapped in an abusive relationship will never understand. Simplistic people will always go "Oh why did you not just get up and leave then". It is not that simple. You can not easily escape when the actual prison is inside your head. I once had a toxic ex-GF who was emotionally and psychologically abusive. She played my anxiety and other weaknesses like a harp. See the thing about abusers is that they never really start out to be the monsters that you will see them transform into. They will initially appear to be the sweetest human beings who will comfort you. And then when you trust them with all your fears and insecurity that is when they start using that against you. That is what Johnny went through. I know because I went through the same thing. I got emotionally blackmailed all the time, gaslighted, and she would threaten me of self-harm and other shit. Something like this causes so much stress in your brain you would really relent just to end the torture. In effect I started self-loathing. I hated myself for not being able to walk away and always folding to her. I even ruined relationships in my family that I am still trying to fix. My biggest mistake was not being able to talk about it because people tend to dismiss abuse stories when it is a man at the receiving end.

Thanks again for the input on this woman's awful character. In a just world, she'd be going to jail for her criminal behaviour towards Jonny, not getting rich on a round of interviews and puff publications by the pandering industry. Its always great to see people, especially women, standing up for the cause of true female equality, not merely false female empowerment, since equality also means not giving a pass to female perpetrated violence, degradation and abuse, and calling it out when it does occur, just as much as it means women having the same opportunities and earning the same rewards and acclaim as men for their achievements. Please keep posting, my lady and I will be watching.

8:24 I feel like she went from ignoring to suddenly acknowledging what the psych. was saying. The only way Amber can redeem herself is to admit that she has an issue. There are a lot of folks who concede to the diagnosis and have moved on with their lives.

look at how Dr. Curry used actual evaluations for her analysis. and remember how Dr. Dawn Hughes, a BOARD CERTIFIED, just used lies and rumors that Amber fed her as proof. Ol Eline tried hard to throw Dr. Curry just bc she wasn't board certified. what a joke! this case showed me that paid professionals will give whatever answer you want for the right price and Dr. Hughes advertises paid professional opinions on her site. disgusting

I think it's worth mentioning that Amber's response to being confronted about her fecal prank was to relentlessly gaslight Depp, insisting that he was having a mental breakdown because he was so "obsessed" with the incident.

Her behavior and manner of speech during the trial was like watching a psychotic and derelict robot pretend to be human.

Great content as always, Baggage Claim. Amber taking copious notes during Dr Curry's explanation of the personality disorders is beyond words.

You must have gone through this as I have. This video is bar none, the most accurate, informative, factual recreation I've seen. Not even the professionals I've seen come close to your assesment of JDs nightmare! Well done!

phenomenal analysis. i had no idea he was also dealing with his moms death AND on top of that he got robbed. the fact that he didn’t kill anyone during this time says so much about him. i guess sooner or later we’re all tested.

As someone who was raised by a narc/histrionic/bpd mother, this was really painful to watch.

She blamed everyone else basically calling everyone a liar except her - she went to a therapist because they just accept her nonsense

Where to start. The confusion, disconnect, word salad, control, crazy making, manipulation, fast shifting emotions, lack of empathy. I think the last straw was when he realized he fell in love with who he thought she was in the honeymoon phase. Then as reality clicked in and the fantasy faded away ... he realised she didn't exist at all. She started first of all acting like a sweet, charming,1950's type housewife... then shifted towards her true personality and characteristics ... imo

Dr Curry’s diagnosis was spot on, it baffles me that people still believe Amber after all the evidence against her has been brought up, and her lying mid sentences, she will never let this go, at least Johnny can finally move on knowing most of the world believes him

Dr Curry what a legend, explained the Turd down to the molecular level.

I think more than her feeling abandoned by his need for space, it was her feeling like he was escaping her abuse. Nobody has abandonment issues when someone goes into a bathroom except the dog or cat.

Until I heard those tapes and his testimony of their relationship, I thought there was no reality where the excuse “She was asking for it” wasn’t disgusting and ridiculous. But if he ever did hit her? I mean, her actions and words could drive a saint to violence! And since he obviously didn’t ever hit her very hard, if he did in fact hit her, because I have no doubt she would have the evidence of it. I still don’t think that makes him an abuser. If he was a woman who finally snapped and hit back, would we forever accuse her of being an abuser? No! She’d be considered a survivor.

Yet another amazing commentary ... 🥰 Dr. Curry's analysis of AH is STILL proving true & accurate to this day ... 😔

“When I lost the tip of my finger.” Would he phrase it like that if he’d done it to himself?

Watching this video was the first time I noticed how clipped & quick Johnny’s speech pattern is when speaking of how he was treated by his wife, and even said it was like his mother. He gave a quick, nervous laugh when he said that & it was clear that laugh covered enormous emotional pain. He was behaving on the stand in a way that is so unlike “himself” that it was painful to see and my heart hurt for him while he relived those painful experiences, talking about it in court. It’s clear that he was most cruelly & repeatedly abused by her.

The more i hear what johnny put up with for six years i find it very upsetting how someone can be so cruel to a much loved actor and friend and yet after divorce and trails she still trys to ruin his life i wish johnny all the best for the future stay strong johnny you are very much loved by the world over as for the person who abuised johnny amber heard i hope your career suffers like you tried to do to johnny

I'm not surprised even abused women and men , did not side with Amber after seeing her actions in court , she described every thing they went through while working with them and made it her own , she faked her crying , and stood there looking at everyone with contempt even making jokes with her attorney .she was so rude to Camille , and would not face her when answering her questions .just talking to the juries ,even saying yes I'll do it again if he touches my sister which she's got no feeling towards . Poor Johnny is a slow talker and she kept running her mouth like a windmill with a determent attitude . No wonder she lost . Johnny is safe from her clutches and she can't stand not being in charge of him anymore . Sorry to all those who were abused in their lives , and hope they escaped their bad treatment and sorted their lives for the better .

I was involved with a Cluster B nutter for years and people like that leave a trail of devastation in their wake. The similarities with the Depp/Heard situation are staggering

Wow this is almost word for word what my marriage was like. I remember showing my then wife videos of how people with borderline personality disorder felt like - she said that's exactly what she feels...., the feeling that you are going mad was constantly presented.., so where the physical and verbal attacks... Thank you for this video - watching this brought a great sense of vindication and peace. Love your channel. You are helping people more than you know. 🙏

The commentary during this channels exposures through out Johnny’s life with Amber is very well presented. Your ability to present the facts with true empathy is really refreshing.

The clip of Dr Curry speaking, placed next to Amber listening and taking notes at the beginning, is gold. Her expressions, oh my.

Dr Curry was proved right when the defendant testified. The jury saw for themselves how right she is.

This is a great video, well done. Especially for sticking to the core facts.

I just don't know how he survived. Heart breaking.

Congrats on getting your first sponsorship! 👏 Great video, as always. 😀

This is the best explanation I have been able to find, regarding why Johnny waited so long to leave. I recommend this to anyone going into a relationship. It is so informative, thank you for providing context that really helps all of us understand.

Well done ! Excellent piece of work. This case has brought home so much important information people (myself included) need to understand. Personally Disorders cause so much prolonged pain and suffering, the recipient of such tactics does think they are the one going mad. Depp hi-lighted the fact so clearly of how we can end up in a relationship that mirrors those problems we have already experienced through a parent. It needs to be said BECAUSE THAT WAS OUR VERY FIRST EXPERIENCE OF WHAT LOVE AND BONDING FELT LIKE AND SO SOME PART OF US STILL BELIEVES THIS IS WHAT LOVE HAS TO BE. When of course it doesn't. This isn't love it's an ordeal. My biggest hope about this case is two fold: • Awareness men can be DV victims. • People noticing how much worse this would have been had they produced children, so the idea filters into their own lives to only make children in a safe loving relationship. Thank you Baggage Claim, please keep making these awesome videos 🌻

Your analysis is spot on. Give Johnny credit for hanging on as long as he did and really trying to make it work but it was unsustainable because she was too violent and incapable of budging an inch. It has to be 100% her way or the highway. Anything that isn't exactly according to her expectations she will blow up and attack him. It's really unfortunate as don't think anyone can put up with her.

Congrats on the sponsorship! Thanks for putting so much into your videos. Hopefully, getting a good look at people or relationships that have gone poorly will help us recognize signs in our own lives that require action rather than just a "deal with it later" mindset.

At 10:14. Dr Curry nails it. She assumed Johnny's life. His money and fame is what she wanted from him. When he lost his 650 million dollars it was too much for her. Everything about her was about her loosing his money. She couldn't live with out it and why she wouldn't leave him. It's always been about fame and money.

well done. It was chilling to listen to Dr. Curry's spot on analysis again.

Love your uploads. Top quality stuff. Utterly brilliant insights.

Excellent. I always look forward to your submissions. Thank you.

As the trial was taking place, I, as many people were, was listening to the videos online that weren’t allowed into the trial. AH’s behaviors, her voice and tactics on the audios that *were* played in the trial TOTALLY revealed AH as displaying and using *ALL* of the tactics of a person with the disorders that Dr Curry diagnosed AH with; which are *ALL* of the behaviors and actions that narcissists have and use on their victims! The trial was *SO* informative about people who are narcissists and have the cluster B personality disorders. The world has had a great lesson about narcissistic people and was a *HUGE* cautionary tale about the red flags for people to watch out for in those *sick* people and to run like hell away from them ASAP!

Brilliant synopsis - thank you for giving time to this fascinating story...

This is a fantastic summary of the relationship! So well done! Great Job!

Congrats on your first sponsorship. Baggage Claim is a top tier channel. Keep up the great work 👍

Sigh... This reminded me such more of me and my father when it came to my mother. No matter what we did, we were always wrong. In her eyes, everyone was wrong, but her. She'd manipulate and exploit others without a sign of remorse, under the guise of kindness and innocence. My father wasn't allowed to see me due to reasons she'd make up on the fly (smoking cigarettes, eating beef, visiting the bar to get things off of his chest, whatever she felt was wrong), and when he could visit, he had to sleep on a mattress on the floor. He was a hardworking man yet was always broke, despite being a Master Sergeant at the time, because she'd empty his bank account at the beginning of each month. Always saying "you're a bad father and not there for your child", yet punish him by not letting him see his child (I don't get her). Unfortunately, if it wouldn't have been for me, he wouldn't have stayed for as long as he did, and I feel that she only birthed me to use as leverage to keep him there and force him to give her everything he got, for I later found out that I was never meant to happen. Once he left her and the country, she took everything out on me instead. My dad couldn't even visit me, fearing that he'd get arrested, because not long after leaving he'd receive letters from foreign banks to which she signed up to by forging his name on contracts and whatnot and drew out 5-digit amounts to waste on "alternative medicine" (herbal medicine, candles, Feng Shui, sugar tablets, that sorta stuff; an obsession that led to her losing her house to the bank and made her incapable to have credit in 2 countries, yet never was imprisoned for fraud, black marketing, abuse, neglect, and so many other crimes). The woman was untouchable, she even black-marketed fishing gear (by exploiting U.S. military "tax-free" mailing system) to freaking cops. I rather not speak of the things she did to me, but I will say that the hopes of moving to my father, whose language I couldn't speak at the time, encouraged me to keep on living, learning, and submitting to her, for as long as it was necessary, while counting down the days till I'd finish school, then high-school. I feel bad for Johnny Depp, because I know where he's coming from, and so does my father. Let me just say that no matter what you do, and what you sacrifice, some people will simply refuse or are incapable to change or admit to their guilt. Even when I was outside of the country, and a young man working as an electrician, did she call me (and write e-mails) almost daily to belittle me and drive guilt into my heart. "You're a failure, who will live under a bridge!" She simply had to be in charge, and when I much later confronted her of things like "Why did you think it's okay for a girl to hit a boy, but wrong for the boy to defend himself?" she simply shrugged. If you're reading this, and suffered similarly, I just want you to know that I feel deeply for how you had suffered, but also of how proud I am that you have made it through, or are fighting to stay alive, and that I'm sure that this horrendous experience has left you to be humble, caring, selfless, and likely one of the sweetest individuals in your community, but also heartbroken and in desperate need of a hug (until I saw my dad again, I didn't even know what a hug was). However, I know too that, much like Johnny Depp, you may gravitate towards the very thing that you fear, or be targeted by those who enjoy doing these things to others (or feel the need to). Despite wanting so desperately to have a child, I am living with a male roommate for companionship, simply because of how much I fear to feel trapped again by such a female, and to have a person who will listen to me and help me learn how to speak up about these things. My grandma did do a great job to help me see that not all women are evil (sorry, but my mom and sister, who was her princess, made me think that women were demonic) and that some are incredible kind (unfortunately I didn't get to be around my grandma till adulthood, and then she passed away). It took me years to speak up about these things, and while this comment may have a small chance to be read, I do hope that at least 1 person will read this and find comfort in knowing that they're not alone, and perhaps feel positive or inspired after reading through all of this. I'm not sure if this may help, but for me, I played video games (Nintendo, for violence was forbidden in our household) and always kept my mind occupied (still do) with anything that I could focus on. Due to my father's language barrier, I chose to play the games and watch movies in his language, so I could learn it better, as well as get myself a dictionary to assist in my studies. I never started drinking or smoking, mostly for how little my mother tolerated in her household (a lot didn't make sense, like she believed that "eating pork turns you into a cannibal"), so the next best thing was visual stimuli. Fortunately, we now have things like RU-vid, so if you feel down, why not learn something new to occupy those thoughts? I hope this comment may help someone... At the very least, it did help me in trying to speak up, in the hopes that I may help someone who was or is in a similar situation. Okay, enough typing, time to send this off. Sorry for how long it got... I tried to keep it brief.

This question is easy. JD finally left AH because she drove him crackers! A person can only take so much before their body starts to shut down. I believe JD was on the verge of a serious nervous breakdown, so he had to get himself free.

This is so insightful. I always get excited when I see you post a new one. Thank you.

You can even see it with the way she dealt with the Australia stuff. Everyone had started to move on, and you'd think she'd want to let it go and hope it ended up being brushed under the carpet rather than risk further charges or a permanent ban from a country she might need to film in for Aquaman. Instead it almost seemed like ages after the whole Pistol and Boo thing, out of the blue she's like "hang on, don't you dare forget me random minister from Australia who annoyed me that time. I'm going to deliberately provoke you again by naming my dog after you and then posting it all over insta. That'll show you!" I think she thought she was being witty and getting her own back, but most people in Aus just saw it as a sad cry for attention including the minister she was trying to provoke. It did nothing for her reputation over here at all. More people seemed to be laughing at her attempts to be insulting (rather than with her as she probably expected), and alernatively no one really got angry or upset by her "insult" (mostly just bemused or generally annoyed at her attitude.) It's almost like any attention is better than none, regardless of how negatively the potential is to affect her in the long run. She can't let anything go or accept that she did the wrong thing, even if it would be the best course of action she could take under the circumstances if she thought about it rationally. If the charges do get bought up again (which is possible, I think there's a few people in parliment that have been waiting on the other trial to finish and wondering if it's worth the trouble pushing this case through or not), it'll likely be labeled "unfair"by her, rather than "consequences of actions taken."

You nailed the history of the relationship and doing it very simpel and to the point. So easy to see the horrible way Johnny Depp was treated. Glad he won the trial and can move on, finally !

One of the best commentaries I've heard -- and I've followed this story very, very closely. Thank you for your thoughtful, in-depth, excellent coverage

damn. I've heard some things about how parental influence may carry over to the types of people one finds themselves in relationships with. I did not know any of this about Johnny Depp's mother or her death being potentially the last straw for him. Your explanations about Amber's quick rage and piling criticisms slightly reminded me of my own mother, and Johnny Depp's escapist coping mechanisms of myself. What especially struck me was at 17:33 about Johnny Depp hiding in seven different rooms while Amber kept chasing, banging and piling on her criticisms. I have countless memories of me hiding in my bathroom (only room I had that locked) while my mother would randomly switch between brooding to my dad and barging into my bedroom and banging and kicking at my bathroom door taunting me with an unnervingly calm voice. When my dad wasn't home this would go on for what felt like HOURS, and I was amazed that the door didn't budge. But if he was home, oh boy would I be in trouble. She would call him to unlock (god knows how he has a key), and then it was futile trying to use my weight on the door against two overweight adults. I don't remember why I once covered my head with a sweater once, but she was swinging to confiscate my phone and not seeing where my face was she swung at my nose and I got a nosebleed. Probably wouldn't have happened if I just gave her my phone lol. It used to be over big mistakes, but over the years anything minor would trigger her and one criticism became a dozen in half an hour. She would rarely resort to some swings at me but it would happen and I would just cower while saying "STOP!". We had our fair share of verbal fits but I always chickened out and froze in place, cowering if she started hitting me.

Johnny is a gentle and sensitive soul. It's incredibly difficult for the wealthy and famous people to find genuine love, which is probably why they gravitate towards others with their own wealth and/or fame, because they believe they can trust that the love is real. He'd do well with an emotionally healthy average woman that actually loves him, and is willing to sign a prenup forfeiting any claim to his wealth.

Her analysis was spot on. If there is any medication that could change this behavior to a more normal personality, she didn't mention it. AH was a known COKE HEAD. Also loves wine. Couple that with her illness and THAT is what JD had to deal with. She must have hid it for some time , then revealed her true self when they married.

thank you for putting the isolated incidents into a time line. It is really helpful 🙏

Congrats on the sponsorship and growing audience! Quality content and superb research

This is what happens when a movement for “equality” sides only with one part of the victims.

You are a breath of fresh air. Because of your voice, I am assuming that you are a young woman, in your 20s. I am 76, and finally I hear a young woman that has my opinions on today's woman. I am not a feminist and would never vote for the Equal Rights Amendment. I have lived through what this supposed equality with men is supposed to have gained by women. I worked in the legal field for many years, and what I saw in female attorneys was their trying so hard to be like men that they completely gave up their femininity. Women becoming men like loses the whole point for me. I find that working with mostly women is much more difficult that working with mostly men. I do not appreciate cursing, and many of the female attorneys had the dirtiest mouths not only with cursing, but with telling off color jokes.

Thank you so much for this video. It’s a perfect distillation of the end of their marriage and why Johnny stayed so long with her and why he made his decision to finally leave. Really nice job.

I forgot about Dr. Curry's testimony because so much was happening during the trial and aftermath. I feel _extremely_ sorry for Johnny for everything he went through and for not believing him at first. 😢 I even feel a bit sorry for Amber because she needs a lot of help and her supporters are just enabling her. They care more about what she represents than her as a individual and they either don't know it or don't care at all. But that's where my sympathy ends because she put Kate James and (allegedly) Whitney through a nightmare too.
