Welcome back to Analyze Scripts, where a psychiatrist and a therapist analyze what Hollywood gets right and wrong about mental health. Today, we are releasing the first part of our analysis of season 1 of "American Horror Story: Murder House." This episode focuses on analyzing the Harmon family as played by Dylan McDermott (Ben, a psychiatrist), Connie Britton (Vivien, Ben's wife), and Taissa Farmiga (Violet, the Harmon's teenage daughter). We have a LOT to say about the show's portrayal of a psychiatrist working inside their home, the depiction of psychotherapy, and Ben's infidelity. We use Violet's character to discuss common signs of adolescent depression and Vivien's character to explore perinatal mental health issues and the distinction between psychosis and the supernatural. We also discuss trauma disorders and our views about living in a haunted house. Tune in for part 2 analyzing the Langdon family next week! We hope you enjoy!
