The Yellow Wallpaper

I must say that I did not get this story at all. I understood what was happening, but I did not see the point of the it. I wondered if the end had a specific meaning. I really do not know what else to say.
I did think it was interesting that it was written in the first person. It was a different angle so see someone going crazy from the inside. Everything seemed logical to her. At the same time, as the reader you wonder if what she is seeing is really true, and the people around her are not in tune to what is going on.
I wonder if the meaning itself was in the wallpaper, after all that is what the tile of the story is. I wonder if the way her husband treated her had something to do with it.
