In the beginning of the episode, Rue tells us she was born three days after the September 11 terror attacks and was diagnosed with an array of mental health issues as a young child. She was sent to rehab for " a good portion of the summer" in the hopes that she would straighten out and was eventually released approximately two months later, a week before her junior year. While in middle school, Rue was close friends with Maddy, Cassie, Kat, and Lexi (whom Rue was best friends with since preschool.) However following her father's death, Rue seemed to drift apart from the group, with only Lexi remaining fairly close to her.Īt the end of her sophomore year, Rue overdosed and nearly choked to death by her own vomit, falling into a brief coma before being found by her younger sister, Gia Bennett. When she visited her father in the hospital, she began to secretly take his medication and, after his death when she was 14, latched on to drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism and became a full-blown addict. At age 13, Rue took Oxycontin for the first time via one of his pills. After her father fell ill, she began taking care of him after school due to her mother having to work more. She described this event as " the feeling she had been searching for her entire life" and the first time she had " felt safe in her own head".

This would be leading to an inability to concentrate, persistent anxiety attacks, and constant manic and depressive episodes. Early in her childhood, she was diagnosed with OCD, ADD, generalized anxiety disorder, and possibly bipolar disorder.

"I think your right" I smiled at the mirror. "That boy doesn't deserve you" she pushed my hair over my shoulder. "You know your right, damn right I'm pretty" rue laughed placing my hand over my shoulder resting her head on my head. I couldn't believe I was letting a boy make me question whether I was pretty enough. Rue pushed the door open to the bathroom and pushed me in before turning me to face the sink and mirror above the sink. "Come with me" Rue took my hand in hers and lead me out her room and towards the bathroom. Rue was taller then me so I was always staring up at her. She walked towards me placing her hands on my shoulders. "What? Your really pretty" Rue stood up so she was now stood in front of me. "Am I ugly?" I asked the girl who seemed shocked by my question. "Cause his seen the message his just not replying" I sighed running a hand through me hair. "How do you know his ignoring you?" The girl asked looking up at me. "I mean why has he been ignoring me for two hours" I looked down at Rue. "You know what that's it" I said loudly throwing my phone down on Rues pillow before standing up.
