the yellow wallpaper

This story is written in the times when men took care of everything,  women were obedient to their husbands and they did not work much. I say this because it struck me that she had to ask him for permission to do certain things. While reading this I thought maybe the wife was going through postpartum depression because she mentioned a baby and she was unable to take care of it but then as the story was going along it seemed to be something a little bit more deeper so I thought it was anxiety but the more focused she became with the wallpaper its seemed to me that she might be schizophrenic. I believe her fixation on the wallpaper and that to her it was a woman was maybe a fixture of herself being close in especially by her husband because she does everything he says she's unable to get out she says something about how the design pattern is like a gate so I feel that that's her in the wallpaper and she's unable to come out because her husband does everything, he has her on around the clock watch, he tells her what she can and what she cannot do. So her fixation on the wallpaper is her wanting to be free.
