Poisoned Sanctuary – Psychological Drama

Feedback Needed:

Hi everyone! I’m a beginner writer sharing the first draft of my script. Since English is not my native language and this is my first complete draft, I’m looking for general thoughts, constructive criticism, and advice.

I’m particularly interested in feedback on:

Character dynamics and emotional tension

Dialogue naturalness and flow

Pacing and overall story structure

I’m not looking to do a script swap at the moment, but any notes from experienced readers or fellow writers would mean the world to me. Thank you for your time!

Ps.

Before anyone says it's AI, it's not. I use scenario for writing and it automatically numbers my scenes.

[FEEDBACK] Untitled Short Drama - 1.5 Pages

Hey everyone!

I've written a short, 1.5-page dramatic scene and I’d love to get some honest feedback on it.

Logline: A hopeful young man visits his secret partner, only to be confronted with the painful reality of addiction and emotional detachment.

What I’m specifically looking for:

Does the tension and shift in dynamics between the two characters land well?

Does the dialogue sound natural?

Is the visual ending effective?

Any constructive criticism is welcome! Thanks for reading.

Looking for real experiences with school bullying / emotional manipulation for a script I’m writing (Anonymous)

Hi everyone,

I’m currently writing a psychological drama screenplay that explores the slow mental decline of a severely isolated and bullied high school student.

I’m trying to avoid classic movie clichés (like simple lunchroom shoving) and want to depict the real, subtle, and psychologically damaging side of bullying—especially emotional manipulation, fake friendships, or mind games where someone pretended to care just to embarrass you later.

If you are comfortable sharing, I’d deeply appreciate hearing your stories:

What was the most painful or insidious thing someone did to you in school?

Did anyone ever pretend to be your friend/romantic interest just to humiliate you?

What were the tiny physical or emotional details you remember feeling at that exact moment?

Note: Everything shared here will remain completely anonymous and will only be used as psychological reference/inspiration for character depth.

Thank you so much to anyone willing to open up.
