Elizabeth Wurtzel Quotes About Feelings

• Eso es lo que quiero dejar claro sobre la depresión: No tiene nada que ver con la vida. En el curso de la vida, hay tristeza y dolor y pena, todo lo cual, en su momento y temporada adecuados, es normal; desagradable, pero normal. La depresión es una zona completamente diferente porque implica una ausencia total: ausencia de afecto, ausencia de sentimiento, ausencia de respuesta, ausencia de interés. El dolor que se siente durante una depresión clínica grave es un intento de la naturaleza (después de todo, la naturaleza aborrece el vacío) de llenar el espacio vacío.

• It is so hard to learn to put sadness in perspective so hard to understand that it is a feeling that comes in degrees, it can be a candle burning gently and harmlessly in your home, or it can be a full-fledged forest fire that destroy almost everything and is controlled by almost nothing.

• Jesús, me pregunté, ¿qué se hace con un dolor tan intenso que no tiene ningún valor redentor? Ni siquiera se puede convertir en arte, en palabras, en algo que pueda considerarse una experiencia interesante, porque el dolor en sí mismo, su intensidad, es tan grande que se ha entretejido en tu sistema tan profundamente que no hay forma de objetivarlo, de sacarlo fuera o de encontrar su belleza interior. Ese es el dolor que siento ahora. Es tan malo que es inútil. La única lección que sacaré de este dolor es lo malo que puede ser el dolor.

• I sit there in my bed staring at the wall, feeling happy, enjoying the way the wall looks, how pink and how white it is. Pink and white, as far as I’m concerned, have never looked quite so pink and white before.

• I’ve been looking for a feeling like that everywhere I go. I’ve been waiting for someone to see all the good in me at every truck stop and intersection along the way. I’ve been waiting all my life for the moment to arrive when I can just stop. Stop looking

  Elizabeth Wurtzel (2007). “More, Now, Again: A Memoir of Addiction”, p.273, Simon and Schuster

• I start to get the feeling that something is really wrong. Like all the drugs put together – the lithium, the Prozac, the desipramine, and Desyrel that I take to sleep at night – can no longer combat whatever it is that was wrong with me in the first place. I feel like a defective model.

• If you take someone's thoughts and feelings away, bit by bit, consistantly, they then have nothing left except some gritty, gnawing, shitty little instinct, down there, somewhere, worming around in the gut, but so far down, so hidden, it's impossible to find.
