It's Kind Of A Funny Story

It's Kind Of A Funny Story
Spread The Viralist



Craig is a high-school junior, in the gifted program, infatuated with his best friend’s girl. When he realizes he’s suicidal, he checks himself into the psychiatric ward of a hospital, thinking they’ll do an observation, help him, and send him home in time for school the next day. Once in, however, he must stay for a week; the juvenile ward is being renovated, so he’s in with adults as well as a few youths. Bobby, a man with a young daughter, shows him around; Craig notices Noelle, about his age. He tries to keep his friends from finding out where he is. Little things: he draws, goes to therapy, sings, helps Bobby rehearse an interview

  1. The things that ticked me off were mainly the small things. 1. From what I see here he checked himself in on Sunday, in the book it was saturday. 2. The "welcome to 3 North" part made me so mad because it was 6 North, the book was separated into parts based on the day so one part would be called like "Six North, Monday" or something like that. It was NOT 3 North. 3. A larger thing. Why does Noelle have 3 scratches on one cheek instead of actual cuts? That annoys me.

  2. I just found the book today and I was just thinking to myself, "Where has this been my whole life?". I've only read the first few chapters and I already love it. I just wish I was't so broke then I could actually watch this.

  3. god i just everyone says that im too young or i have such an amazing life that ishouldnt be deppresed well fuck dude i cantfigure out why i wanna slit my wrist and just lay out in silence, but i dont go around saying inmcompetent shit like your life is perfect why are you sad you judt dont say shit like that it hurts

  4. I remember doing most of this stuff when I got hospitalized like, drawing, watching tv, playing basketball, and music, but that's all I remember I couldn't leave the hospital though, lol I remember everyone liking me and this one girl kept hugging me but not letting go ?

  5. I read the book and I'm kind of disappointed because I liked the part of the book where he wasn't in the hospital and her they just started with the hospital but um yeah idk

  6. I'm pretty depressed. The wife divorced me. I have been out of job for more than a year.
    I have to come to live with my parents at age 38. I have no dream. Life is pretty scary. I sleep whole day. No energy left.
    The movie made me cry.
    Maybe there is feature for me. Maybe I'll be ok.

  7. This book is my safe place. I share so many similarities with Craig, and it's comforting to know I'm not alone even if I feel like it.

  8. i have actually been a patient in a psychiatric hospital, for cutting, depression, anxiety, and for being suicidal. this movie actually inspired me to get better, and it made me smile, so this is now my favorite movie 🙂

  9. I carry this story with me ever since I first read it last year. I cannot fully explain how much this book has influenced me. Seriously love the trailer rlly want to watch it

  10. Yea I read about it yesterday, it's why I watched the movie today. That's thing about depression, just when you think someone has everything to live something in them says no and ends it

  11. Cute movie!  🙂  The sad thing is the author Ned Vizzini killed himself by jumping off a roof on thursday.  May he rest in peace!!!

  12. Please make it available in mobile format. Cannot play on youtube mobile. Love this movie want to watch it, have no tv only mobile phone. Thanks.
