I'm finishing the movie "what the bleep do we know?" and I recommend for all people, especially psych patients. The following phrase just totally changed me:
"If we can be addicted to heroin, we can be addicted to any emotion, any neuro-peptide."
Crackers! That makes me think. I know I've carried around depression and self loathing most of my life like a ratty blanket, but to think that I WAS ADDICTED TO HATING MYSELF!?!? This is definitely the case. I was addicted to hating myself. The whole movie is full of eye-openers in the simplest of ways. Wow
