Or in her case a selfish rhymes-with-witch.It's kind of depicted as both. She had mania due to possession of the life force. But now has depression. Which is likely due to a lifetime of tragedy.
I think she could still handle it. She might not have meant for it to happen, but it still did because she sought out to bring her kids back. So possessed or not, it's something she should be able to handle, because people have had to handle it without choice because of M-day.
It's just that comics have waited too late to make any of it seem sincere. Like what were they waiting on?
Mental illness itself does not make someone decide to hurt people. More often than not it leads to self harm. A person has to be an ******* to want to kill people. That is why there are people who murder who don't have a mental illness. They might just have anger issues mixed with low morals. So there can be people with mental illness that do bad things, but the mental illness isn't mostly why. They are just an ******* that also has mental illness.
It's a stereotype like any other. There are plenty of mentally ill people who are high functioning and able to go about their lives without harming anyone.
Wanda is not mentally fragile when not possessed.
