She wrote, “I said to [the doctors], ‘If you are going to treat me like a nut, I’ll act like a nut.’”

Some of the notes Monroe penned also mention the worsening condition of her mental health. “I wish I knew why I am so anguished,” an undated letter to her friend Paula Strasberg read. “I think maybe I’m crazy like all the other members of my family were. When I was sick, I was sure I was.”
