Because as a survivor of abuse I understand how these episodes can warp your mind and make you unsure of not just your thoughts, but the reality around you. Again, I am not discounting that she could be dishonest with some of her statements.

I think you’re severely underestimating the lengths a person with BPD is capable of going to. Also, I think using an article written with a clear bias makes for pretty weak evidence to justify your argument. I’ve avoided most of the media during this case and instead opted to listen and watch the actual testimony which is what I’m basing my opinions on, I don’t follow very much celebrity news and hadn’t followed this case very closely before the trial began.

I think you're villanizing people who have BPD. It's a very difficult mental disorder to live with but that does not mean people who have it are compulsive liars, manipulators, or monsters. Again, she was diagnosed by a therapist in his legal team so you should question the bias.
I think that section of the article is very clear in presenting facts. These allegations first came from her two yeas prior to even being married, and they were not brought to public light until years after their divorce. I think that fact there were numerous documented allegations during their relationship is enough smoke for me to believe there's some truth.

I think the facts spoke for themselves and Heard’s lawyers quickly realized they were dealing with a client who hadn’t been honest with them and so they did their best to mitigate the damage.

I think you should also look at the fact that Depp hired an entire legal team with the best money he could buy with his $150 million dollar fortune and Heard had a single lawyer whose legal fees racked up to her net worth even before the trial began.
