The Young and the Restless teases that Sharon is not the only character dealing with mental health issues that require treatment.

The Young and the Restless is diving into darker territory as tensions rise between Lucy and Faith.

What begins as innocent admiration quickly spirals into something more sinister, as Lucy’s obsession with Faith deepens.

Phyllis has downplayed Lucy's status as a stalker, but her actions surely raise red lights in our minds! It's reasonable for a young teen like Lucy to feel alienated and pulled toward someone like Faith.

Lucy the Stalker?

Lucy's adoration for Faith and yearning for friendship is obvious, yet she has passed a limit.

Despite Faith's efforts to establish limits, Lucy failed to perceive the signals, requiring Faith to clearly say that their age gap rendered their friendship improper.

Although Lucy tried to accept this fact, her obsession with Faith grew following their encounter.

Lucy has recently shown her dissatisfaction with Sharon's efforts to keep them apart, causing Faith to stress that Lucy should form connections with classmates her age.

Naturally, Faith has failed to connect with Lucy thus far; there's no reason to expect Lucy will take a long break.

In fact, Faith's previous rejection may have strengthened Lucy's desire to take charge of the situation and pursue this connection.

Sheila’s Legacy Looms Large!

Faith has previously said that Lucy would benefit from seeing a therapist, implying that Y&R is preparing for another fascinating mental health subplot.

After all, Lucy's family background is extremely chaotic, since her biological grandma is Sheila from The Bold and the Beautiful, who has previously been on Y&R.

With Sheila's legendary reputation for unpredictable conduct, it begs the issue of whether such characteristics run in the family!

Imagine Lucy following Grandma Sheila's lead and crossing a hazardous line--what if she kidnaps Faith to prevent her from returning to college, forcing her to listen?

Lucy could knock Faith unconscious and restrain her in a secluded spot in a fit of wrath; considering Lucy's continuous plunge into disturbing conduct, it wouldn't be shocking if she attempted.

Such a stunning abduction would surely drive Sharon to her breaking point, perhaps interweaving with her own Daniel-related drama.

Lucy has clearly acquired an unhealthy obsession with Faith, exhibiting some disturbing stalker-like behavior. Lucy's obsession may take her to extremes.
