A forensic psychologist who was hired by Johnny Depp's legal team testified on Tuesday that she believes Heard does not have post-traumatic stress disorder.
Heard took several mental health tests after spending about 12 hours with Shannon Curry. Curry reviewed Heard's health records, documents, audio recordings, photos, and videos. Curry believes Heard is self-righteous, judgmental, and full of rage based on the test results.
Curry said that her scores were consistent with other people who had obtained the same scores.
Lawyers for Heard and Depp have tried to paint the other as the one who started the fight in their marriage. Heard wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post in which she said she is a victim of domestic violence, and that's when Depp sued her for defamation. He testified that he was the victim of domestic violence during their relationship, and he claimed that the implication that he abused Heard hurt his reputation and cost him movie deals and other opportunities.
Heard has not yet taken the stand, but her attorneys have accused him of physical and sexual abuse, which they said often happened when he was using drugs or alcohol.
Curry testified on Tuesday that she believed Heard had a personality type that was tied to anger and cruelty.
Curry said that the 36 code type is prone to externalizing blame and is very concerned with their image.
According to Curry, the defining characteristic of borderline personality disorder is instability, which shows up in a person's relationships, emotions, behavior, sense of self, and identity.
She said that instability is driven by the underlying terror of abandonment.
