Romeo And Juliet Mental Disorder

Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, two star-crossed lovers, will do anything to show their deep affection for each other. Since they are from two different families, who happen to be enemies, they can be punished for expressing their love for one another. Unfortunately, their passion sparks many outrages. Due to Father Capulet’s feud with the Montague family, Romeo and Juliet's love life results in death.

Soon after the death of Tybalt, Paris - the man trying to marry Juliet - meets with Capulet to discuss marriage. Capulet allows Paris to marry Juliet. However, Juliet is already married to Romeo, so she asks the Friar for help. Friar Lawrence, doing the thing he thought was right, devised a plan to help Juliet get out of the tough situation. He comes up with a potion that will make appear dead, so that when she is in her family’s crypt, Romeo will retrieve her and they would live happily with Romeo, away from their feuding parents.

In Romeo and Mercutio’s cases, their impulsivity causes them to be unable to handle their emotions and act unwisely without thinking. For Juliet, impulsivity combines with inexperience to lead to poor, hasty decisions. Although it is not an excuse for poor decision-making, it is important to recognize that impulsivity and the inability to think clearly are something every person is born with and does not grow out of immediately. The younger characters in Romeo and Juliet are a prime example of how important it is for teens to grow out of impulsive decision-making. But it takes time for youth to develop both cognitively and emotionally into adults and it is imperative that both patience and understanding are applied during this process. Learning to act thoughtfully and cautiously is a core element of maturing and takes many years for teens to

The potion was able to have Juliet fake her death for forty-two hours and place her into a catatonic state. Juliet took this potion so she could get away with not having to marry Paris. According to act 4 scene 4 and 5, the nurse was the one to find Juliet deceased in her bed and is the one to tell Juliet's parents. When Romeo caught the wind with this tragedy he discovered that he couldn’t live his life without Juliet so he ended up killing himself. Friar Lawrence was to blame for this because the potion wasn’t necessary, Juliet could have stuck up for herself and decide that she didn’t want to marry Paris now. This is the second reason why Friar Lawrence is to blame for the deaths of Romeo and

The teenage brain Teenagers are known for many things but especially for being unpredictable. They don’t think things through and are always making a scene. Many articles have been written to improve our knowledge and understand these behaviours. Research shows that a teenager’s brain doesn’t begin to resemble that of an adult until the early 20’s (TBHKI). Typical adolescent mannerism is well demonstrated all throughout the play Romeo and Juliet.

In Act IV of Romeo and Juliet, things start looking up for Juliet as Friar Lawrence gives her a potion to fake her death so she will able to escape with Romeo. Hurrying to the Friar’s cell to seek help, Friar Laurence tells Juliet to plead for forgiveness and she would drink a poison that will fake her death for 42 hours. Leaving Friar’s cell Juliet hurries home to plead for forgiveness and that she will agree to Paris’ marriage. After being forgiven Juliet is starting to have doubts about the potion, but drinks it anyways. Going on at the same time, the Capulet family is preparing for the wedding in the morning. In the morning, the Nurse discovers Juliet’s “dead” body and everyone is confused and saddened at the sight of their child

Usually, elaborate and complicated plans do not turn out the way that they are supposed to, especially in this scenario. Later in the play, Romeo is banished from Verona for killing Tybalt. Friar Lawrence tries to help the young lovers using a potion, “ a thing like death to chide away this shame, that cop’st with death himself to ‘scape from it...And if thou dearest, I’ll give thee remedy.” (183). This potion would make Juliet appear dead for 42 hours, and then she would arise. Giving an almost deadly potion to a 14-year old does not seem like a responsible measure to take. Friar thinks that when Paris sees Juliet dead, he will stop pursuing Juliet for once and Juliet will stay loyal to Romeo. Friar sends a “letter was not nice but full of charge of dear import, and neglecting it may do much danger.” (219). This letter includes the potion plot and what Friar’s intentions were. Unfortunately, Romeo never receives this letter and never gets to know that Juliet will stay loyal to Romeo,

Adolescents make more rash decisions than any other age group. This behavior linked with teenagers leads to risky actions because of the design of the teenage brain. On the flip side, the blueprint of the teenage brain permits teens to pick up new skills by seeking out different adventures. The teenage characters in Romeo and Juliet pose as an accurate representation of typical teenage decision making. Although this is consistent behavior with this age group, based upon scientific findings of adolescent brain growth, brain maturity, and pleasure drive, teenagers like Romeo and Juliet should be held responsible for their risk-taking and impulsive behavior.

The potion imitates death and is meant to give Romeo time to meet Juliet when she wakes. The two are supposed to run away together, but the letter that Friar Lawrence fails to deliver has all the information about Juliet’s fake death. Instead, the news of Juliet’s death

“Take thou this vial, being then in bed, / And this distilled liquor drink thou off” (Shakespeare 4.1.96-97) This quote reveals that Friar gave Juliet the sleeping potion to drink the night before Paris and Juliet were to be married. The plan that he had in mind was for Juliet to drink the sleeping potion that would make her appear dead for forty-two hours, be buried in the Capulet tomb, then be saved and took to Mantua by Romeo when she woke up. However, it is later revealed that Friar John couldn’t bring the important letter Friar Laurence wrote to Romeo that described the plan because he was quarantined inside of a house because town health officials suspected he was infected with the plague. When he heard of this, Friar Laurence was going to write to Romeo again, meanwhile taking Juliet to his cell when she woke up and keeping her there until Romeo arrived. It was too late, since Romeo already heard that Juliet was dead from Balthasar, causing him to already be on his way to Juliet’s grave to kill himself so he could be with her. Friar Laurence allowing Juliet to drink the sleeping potion before he was certain that Romeo knew about the plan was ultimately what caused the death of Romeo and

Friar Lawrence's Deadly Support “Hold daughter I do spy a kind of hope”(183). Spoken by Friar Lawrence in William Shakespeare's famous romantic tragedy, and describes his support towards Romeo and Juliet; however, sometimes helping someone does more harm than good. In William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, support is shown in more than just one way. Friar Lawrence's willingness to support Romeo and Juliet ultimately causes their deaths.

What is love? Is it an object? Is it a feeling? Is it even attainable? Love is everything, it is an object, it is an emotion, and it cannot be bought, stolen, given. Love can only be found. Love is discovered in the most unthinkable places during the most unimaginable times. It can never be predicted who you fall in love with or when you do but all you do know is that you are in love and you would give anything for that person, and for your love to always stay resilient through all other obstacles and distractions. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Montague’s and Capulet’s are know and expected to hate each other until the miracle of love presented its self. Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet.
