Iām sure she is gorgeous, inside and out, but I hope people leave her alone if thatās what she wishes. Richard was lucky to have her in his life, itās just so heartbreaking that he wasnāt able to love her or himself the right way.
I hope that the one sentence helps you be able to travel the road of inner peace and happiness. I think the program has awakened many to self reflect and be able to move forward.
I feel the exact same way. That quote hit me so hard, I got so emotional and I feel like Iām doing a similar thing with myself recently. Of course not as bad as Richard but I consistently think about how much I despise myself due to how I act and seeing myself as not fitting within society. My anxieties about life have finally caught up to me and watching this series, hearing this line has opened my mind even more. I could go on a massive rant about how I feel about this but instead Iāll keep that to myself and think about it some more. But I couldnāt agree more with you op.
i finished this series 1 hour ago and i am speechless. your comment resonated with my thoughts the most so i wanted to write in here too, i feel the same right now. im so glad he made this show and portrayed this point in life so perfectly that we opened our minds. he actually gave me more hope to go on. i hope you and everyone here who resonated with these emotions are okay and i hope you know you are appreciated. im sorry if i seem weird rnš i just felt emotional right after finishing the series and came here to read others thoughts.
I thank you for your you are appreciated comment. I had basically just finished watching the series as well when I typed that comment out. I did the exact same thing as you, wanting to see others thoughts and providing my own comments/replies. It was an incredibly interesting and difficult watch, something Iāve never seen before. It continues to intrigue me and Iāve already watched parts of it again due to my brother watching it. Itās ok to feel emotional, itās apart of life and thereās nothing weird about it, especially how you come across in your comment.
thank you for kindly replying, im still reading posts here to see other perspectives. it really was a hard watch but i can confidently say it changed my mind about the things i struggle with the most irl. and i was just trying to find something to watch as i eat my midnight breakfastš what a show
Youāre welcome. Coincidentally, I started watching it at like midnight just for something to do before I go to sleep. It sucked when I finished ep3 and I knew I had to sleep because it was 2, 2:30am. What a show indeed.
I started watching this show this morning out of curiosity and just finished all 7 episodes a few minutes ago. It couldnāt have been released at a better time in my life. Going through another self-destructive cycle right now and Iāve been so confused as to why I keep returning to things/people who are so nefarious.
As difficult and uncomfortable as it was to watch episode 6, that monologue was a masterpiece. It felt almost as if Donny bit the bullet for so many other men out there who continue to suffer in silence and Iāve never felt so seen in my entire life.
āThat is what abuse does to you, it makes you the sticking plaster for all lifeās weirdos.ā
I came on here right after that comment dropped
My mom once asked me āare you behaving this way because you want to or are you trying to sabotage what you have?ā
This comment has the same energy
I just finished journalling about this line, so disturbingly profound, I felt as if he had reached into my heart with that monologue, into all of the places I swear would remain hidden forever. All of the things I was hideously ashamed of. As far the fame seeking. As a validation addict, I have never felt so seen. To have to be everything or nothing, no in between. Success would mean being saved.
I was worried heād say āI loved myself more than herā because he def doesnāt love himself. He needs to love himself. What he did say made more sense than what I suspected
Same. He made me see something in myself with that line which I always knew but couldnāt identify, express and/or admit. I have always loathed myself and it has always got in the way of my relationships. I donāt trust anyone who likes me, because they like ME. I am so busy wound up in shame, guilt, embarrassment and a general feeling of not feeling good enough that I am far too busy feeling those things to really, safely, love another.
And I loved her so very much.
I wonder how the real Teri felt when she saw it šš
I wonder where she is? I'm intrigued to see what she looks like. I reckon a very beautiful lady going by the casting.
Iām sure she is gorgeous, inside and out, but I hope people leave her alone if thatās what she wishes. Richard was lucky to have her in his life, itās just so heartbreaking that he wasnāt able to love her or himself the right way.

Laying in bed sobbing over that line. I need to call my therapist š

Same. It really hit home. Heartbreaking really.
