Elizabeth:
I just keep thinking that, if I could just be normal, you know, if I could just get out of bed in the morning, everything would be OK. Dr. Sterling:
OK, well, what do you think normal is? Elizabeth:
Most people, you know, they cut themselves, they put a band aid on, they keep going. Dr. Sterling:
And what do you do? Elizabeth:
I just keep bleeding. Dr. Sterling:
So you think that being normal is having a wound, putting a patch on it and then just go on with your life? Elizabeth:
Isn't that what functioning is? Isn't that what living is? You know, you keep going no matter what happens to you. Dr. Sterling:
Is that the way you want to live?
