I just finished this show and binge watched it over 2 days. I couldn't stop watching. The acting, music, and production were so well done. It really brought me back to high school days (I'm in my late 20's now). I could totally relate to Hannah, as I think many American teenage girls (and boys) can too. Yes, she was a "drama queen" as many people have said, but many teenagers are. I think the negative reviewers are forgetting what it was really like to be a teen or they had a positive high school experience and didn't have to go through some of the terrible things a lot of people have gone through. Mental health plays a huge role too. Hannah was definitely dealing with depression and possibly other mental health problems. I was depressed in high school and had severe social anxiety. It consumed my whole life and as a result I contemplated suicide. I didn't go through even close to the terrible things Hannah had to. This show is her point of view and that needs to be remembered when watching. It's also the point of view of a teenage girl who can't yet fathom that life can get better and it's worth living. I don't think this show is trying to be a PSA, it's telling the sad and tragic story of Hannah Baker and hundreds of other American teens. I'm glad the popularity of this show is getting people thinking and talking about the issues teens have to deal with and I hope somehow it can help.
