Loved the article. I only have one thing to add from my personal experience.
In the past, when I was dealing with severe depression, if I read this article or similar, I would've thought "this is such bullshit, wtf is this moron talking about".
Reading the article today, after being "cured" from depression by Electroconvulsive therapy, I thought it was so helpful and insightful. I was able to actually understand what the author was saying and take their words to heart.
It's crazy how depression clouds things like that, something that could be really helpful is seen as super-positive bs and unrealistic. Something that you (depressed person) could never achieve. Truly sick disease.
If you're dealing with depression right now, please keep pushing, it really really does get better :)
- moviewise 5y agoThank you for sharing this. It's an interesting observation that the people who may best be helped by what I call "movie therapy" would be the most resistant to it, as they are not in the right frame of mind to consider new ideas or perspectives. It's one of those terrible ironies of life.
