So, I think I figured out why the one side of my laptop is falling apart, the screw coming undone and my monitor wouldn’t stay up. Basically, I think the other side of my screen completely broke off of the base and was only being held on by the other side.

One is completely broken and the other is barely intact. Just thought I would share.
