Yes it is theorized that he suffered from a severe form of bipolar. He exhibited fits of mania (drawing, digging in the garden, talking to walls and the stars) he was frequently be speaking at such a high rate of speed that it was unrecognizable as English and would result with him foaming at the mouth from the amount of air he would intake while ranting , he would also repeat himself frequently. There were rumors for years that it was a blood disease because he would often have blue urine but he apparently grew a sort of herb in the garden that was a blue flower that was used in tonics at the time that caused it. So on top of everything he was misdiagnosed constantly by many doctors. Sounds awful.

He definitely displays symptoms of Mania: decreased need for sleep, more talkative and disorganized thought patterns (flight of ideas), increase in goal directed activity illustrated through his fixation on gardening and the observatory. And of course it caused impairment in both social and occupational functioning. I haven’t done much research on King George but the one thing that has me questioning a Bipolar diagnosis is that we don’t see his Major Depressive episodes in the show (No depressed mood, diminished interest, decrease in appetite etc). If the real King George did experience this, I wish the show would’ve highlighted. Based on show depictions alone, I wonder if schizoaffective diagnosis is more appropriate. He has the delusions, disorganized speech, and disorganized behaviour but no major depressive episodes.

This is the episode that started to break me. Getting to see George’s perspective, filled in the blanks. This episode for me was about LOVE. The love George has for Charlotte, that he will do anything to get better. The love of a mother, protecting her child. The love of a wife, that desperately is trying to find answers. The love of a friend / Butler, that only wants the best for you. Love for country. That Doctor is sadistic. The methods he is using with George is to break him down to the point where he is just a shell. Then he can control him. The shaving, calling him boy, depriving him from seeing anyone, it’s all to control him, have power over him. He knows the things that will trigger George, he knew what he was doing by telling George of Charlotte’s pregnancy. This series is so well written and acted, rich and layered.

He used stress knowing it would trigger George into an episode, then further stressed him physically and mentally to try and break him into submission, even a doctor wouldn’t call a literal king “boy” that’s some that could get him killed but George being mental ill wasn’t understanding that this wasn’t about helping him. I also want to point out that’s how they treated people with mental illness back then with no real knowledge it was easier to assume these people were “mad” and use these extreme treatments on them and it did more harm than anything.

15:53 the doctor also being a barber is a call back to barber surgeons.

the most insane part about this ep to me is the fact that it's not exaggerated at all stuff like this happened all the time, up until very recently in fact (recently being early 1900s of course, but still not that long ago considering the history of mental health) whenever mental health "treatment" like this is shown in period media, it's usually not that far from the truth, which is terrifying

Great reactions. This was a heartbreaking episode. Poor George trying to be the best version of himself. Seeing him tortured is difficult to watch

This ep. Clears everything up and makes you love George

Am I the only one who noticed the pattern. Every time he got supriseing, upsetting or had to do stuff that put pressure on him, he got the attacks. It's the pressure of being a king with no leeway, so his brain stops and freaks out. I think it's a hyper form of untreated anxiety, that lead to mania or disorderd thought. But bc of the time it was not understood, just now in 2023 people are starting to take mental illness seriously and trying to understand.

Heavy responsibility seems to be his triggers which the doctor knew and later used against him. Ignorance is understandable but it is not an excuse in my opinion. Those ice baths and creating pain was never gonna work and the fact that his mother didn't demand to know what methods they were using on her son is beyond horrific.

colic means severe pain, esp stomach pain in children it meant inconsolable crying. in the series the exact mental disorder isnt depicted accurately mostly because it wasnt diagnosed at tht time meaning he looks like he has a cocktail of symptoms here..its said he had bipolar disorder. some also said he had porphyria(a liver disease sometimes causing psychotic symptoms). from the show( all three season) he looks like he has dementia, maniac episodes ,hallucinations .

The only reason he keeps going back to the doctor is for Charlottle .. he thinks if the doctor can stop the fits then he can be with Charlottle ... also Charlottle did go to the doctor and she is pregnant, they just didn't show it

Love to see everything from George's perspective. Gave so much understanding. I love how they kept us guessing, like Charlotte and then revealed it to us.

That’s cool they mentioned the name Mecklenburg. My hometown in North Carolina is named after the real Queen Charlotte and it’s Mecklenburg County.

From what I've read, it seems like a lot of historians and mental health experts have landed on bipolar disorder as a likely diagnosis for George. It was believed to be acute porphyria at one point, but as understanding of mental health increases that's been debunked. One of the symptoms of the suspected porphyria has even been linked to the medicine his doctors gave him. I'm interested in hearing the thoughts of those also dealing with bipolar disorder. I know depictions of mental illness in television are a mixed bag, but this one seems well researched and even. However, hard the "treatment" of it is to watch. As always I enjoyed the commentary.

King George's physicians would put leeches onto his eyeballs as one of his treatments.

No the doctor did not make him start farming. In the first flashback scene before his mother told him about Charlotte we see King George was farming. (Before the doctor was introduced)

your first WTF was my reaction through this whole episode

Back then, barbers were often doctors (for some reason I don't know). Also, 16:23 "colic" is used to describe unexplained crying in babies. Though, it's likely that "unexplained crying" is from acid reflux. So sometimes colic is helped by feeding a baby in a more upright position.

Thanks, Rob! Thanks, Bryce! Thanks, Zuff! 👑 Believe it or not, this kind of inhumane treatment (often by sadistic practitioners) was commonplace for psychologically impaired and mentally ill people for about *250* years. #ReelTime #TomVerica #QueenCharlotte

Lmaooo colic is not chicken pox Rob 😂 it's a digestive and gas problem sometimes coming from the formula when you're a baby.

Quick tidbit, Colic is when a healthy baby cries for a very long time, for no obvious reason. It is most common during the first 6 weeks of life.

I really feel if you enjoy this and Bridgerton you’d probably enjoy downton abbey. It’s a long long series with 2 films as well but it’s quite fascinating :)

Dr munro lose his mind... this sadistic dr let the power trip of treating the king go to his head... Also George loves to farm that wasnt the dr

Medicine back then...😢

I'm so glad you guys had a reasonable reaction to this episode 🙏❤️ So many people said "this episode broke me" and like, I'm confused about that. Yes, the doctor was a total quack, but what some folks don't seem to know is that, back then... EVERY doctor was a quack 🤷 They didn't know enough about science to really be able to do much more than try random things and hope they would work out. Also, George went out of his way to ask for the most experimental methods the doctor had. What did he expect that would entail? In a world where "regular" physicians were bleeding people with leeches and attributing their moods to the type of bile they had, obviously asking for more unorthodox methods would lead to some pretty horrific treatments and George had to know that, right? I feel like this entire episode was intended to excuse the way he treated Charlotte, but I don't know why we needed that, because we had already seen him apologize to her and they were fine, right? I mean, didn't we already develop empathy for his character based on what was shown to us in the first three episodes, so why did we need yet another whole episode devoted to that? I dunno, maybe it's just my autistic brain having a hard time with this for some reason, but I don't understand why people had such an emotional reaction to this. This was actually the first episode that I didn't have an emotional reaction to, but maybe I just went into it with higher expectations due to the way ppl hyped it up or something? 🤷 Also, it could be that I have a personal pet peeve about ppl lying and/or keeping secrets, so maybe I just read it as though they were working overtime to justify that and it rubbed me the wrong way? 🤷 Not sure, but either way, I enjoyed your reaction! 🙏❤️☺️

Them thinking colic was like chicken pox hahahahhahaha

This might sounds crazy but during this episode I wasn’t sure if I hated the doctor or not. It’s cuz he wasn’t planning on doing this extreme “treatment”, but the George himself asked him to use treatments on him that he wasn’t sure works bc until them the doctor was only doing things that he thought for sure worked. So then can we truly be mad at the doctor for putting him through this when George asked him to do whatever he thought would help? By the end I do think tho that the doctor proves to be bad by telling George the news, but I didn’t hate him for the treatment initially

I get she's trying to HELP her son in anyway possible, but she clearly was blinded not to see that her son was suffering more than ever.

😭😭😭 colic is when a baby who is otherwise fine cries hysterically for no reason for long amounts of time even with a wide range of comforting. I had colic as a baby along with my younger brother and my mom said it was hell

The doctor is giving me Struensee feat Rasputin vibes

Colic is when a baby cry’s and doesn’t calm down sometimes is gas but in that time colic would be crying too much

Colic is when a baby crys ALL THE TIME. It can actually cause vocal damage.

21:45 Charlotte does seem to be pregnant but either doesn't know or hasn't told anyone yet.

This video was hard to watch to be honest. Especially since I struggle with my mental health. You guys should definitely read more about King George. He most likely had porphyria. It's a blood disorder that affected his mental health. And several people in the royal family had it. Including his own granddaughter. Porphyria is something that can be managed with medication nowadays. But mental health care hasn't been great until the last 50 years or so. I find this show interesting but somewhat inaccurate since King George at this point in his life in real life was fine. He didn't start struggling with his mental health until he was much older. But that wouldn't have made for an interesting show.

As someone who personally works hard to manage my mental health and whose sibling has a bipolar and schizophrenia diagnosis, I appreciate that it’s hard to watch fictional depictions of mental illness. I personally like that this show did not try to ‘diagnose’ George, not even naming any illnesses known and recorded for the time. It is true he was otherwise well for many years, until his erratic episodes became more frequent and he spiraled into being fully incapacitated until his death. In 2015, 20,000 personal papers belonging to George III were released to the public at Windsor Castle. According to first hand accounts of his behavior, how his writing differed during his bouts of lucidity compared to his bouts of illness, historians now believe he suffered from bipolar disorder. This could have been in conjunction with porphyria and to a greater extent dementia in his later years. Sadly, we can only speculate after 200 years. I think we all agree the methods of “treatment” he endured, including straightjacketing, arsenic blistering, long periods of intentional isolation - amongst other practices - made his suffering and symptoms worse.

@@ashleydowney1222 Yes, even his granddaughter Queen Victoria’s episodes of rage and mood swings were blamed on a probable diagnosis of porphyria. She suffered from deep, deep anguish after Prince Albert’s death, a depression remained with her until her death but she was an astute and capable monarch her entire reign. We know George III was not. His manic episodes were, sadly, sometimes violent and brought on behavior that could be attributed to hearing voices in his head. Queen Charlotte could not visit him without two guards at one point, and they lived a part at the end of their marriage. He was sadly too far gone to be informed of her death and outlived her for almost two years without knowing his beloved had died. The study of his recently accessible papers has filled in the ‘gaps’ that were not quite explained by the porphyria diagnosis alone. It is a tragic love story. His position did not shield him from experimental medical practices that should never have been inflicted on a living being - I feel fortunate to be alive now considering the damage caused by mental health treatment standards and practices in the recent past.
