The Yellow Wall-Paper

In “The Yellow Wall-Paper” story by Charlotte Perkins Stetson I think it’s a ghost story. I believe The Narrator fight against the ghost she became. After giving birth to a child you can become diagnose with postpartum depression, a nervous breakdown or somewhat of bipolar disorder. I believe The Narrator has all these illness and its one delusional health mixture. I am “ghostliness” as she overcomes her sickness at Ancestral Halls in the summer with her family.

             

            According to The Narrator “I have a schedule prescription for each hour in the day: he takes all care from me, and so I feel basely ungrateful not to value it more.” She has no say in her life or care to get better. The Narrator husband who is a medical doctor, don’t care about the side effects of her prescriptions or taking away all of her responsible. She doesn’t appreciate how husband don’t allow her to see or spend time with her family. The Narrator states “And I've pulled off most of the paper, so you can’t put me back!” I believe she have reached her breakthrough and now is a working progress.
