Is Batman Mentally Ill? A Look at the Psyche of the Dark Knight

Source: collidier.com
Let's talk about Batman.

I know, I know, another post about Batman. Just bear with me.

I know many people ask why Batman doesn't just get over his parents' death and why he has to be so "emo" about it. It's probably been one of the reasons people may not like Batman as much, or at least it's one of the things they poke fun at. They feel he dwells on his past too much, that he's too depressing and dark. The biggest argument people have against Batman is they wonder why he doesn't just "get over it."

See, that's the whole issue: I don't think he can get over it.

Like physically, emotionally, mentally can't.
