In a world where cities are vast and filled with strangers, our only refuge is in the people we know. Those people in our lives who share our ideals, our values, our sense of humour. How wonderful to be able to count on that familiarity and knowing we are not alone.
And Erica had a very interesting conversation with her grandfather, saying that he couldn't raise them the way he wanted, but that their father raised them the way he saw fit (because it often happens in life that it's the grandparents who start interfering in the upbringing of a child, regardless of the opinion of the child's parents)..
E: You can't expect people to be like you: you are not your patient... T: We tend, Erica, all of us, to see the world through the prism of our own reflection. And we assume, without even thinking, that people are just like us. <...> When the people we are cared about let us down, when they dissapoint us, we have troubles seeing that we are holding them to the impossible standards. E: You are not your patient, but at the same time... T: You are your patient. E: The lessons - they're two sides of the same coin. It's about finding the balance. T: That's right. And if you can find that balance, Erica, you will make a great doctor.
They say, relationships are everything, they are glue that binds us together, bringing joy and pain in equal measure. And it can be hard to navigate the differences, to be compassionate and forgiving, and gentle with each other.
It's good that she made up with Jenny. And I even figured out "Brulianna"))
Seriously?!? For a month, it's not clear why hide it, then discuss it at all. Why?!? What does Erica care about Julianne and Brant's relationship, she hasn't been with any of them?!?
@Nadezhdat: well, the fact is that a friend is both a business partner and, in fact, she mixes personal and working relationships, in general, this really does not lead to anything good)
I love this series so much for such simple but important truths.: you are your patient and at the same time you are not your patient) and the point, however, is to find harmony.
1. Terrible opening scene. Breaking into a person in the bathroom is a blatant violation of personal boundaries, and it doesn't matter if it's your birthday or not. 2. What kind of stupid rules are they, why is he not allowed to communicate with patients? In real therapy, on the contrary, if the therapist wants to be friends with you/date, you end the therapeutic relationship and start a regular one. And Tom didn't even ask why.
@farberry: this is "the therapist wants to be friends with you/ date, you stop the therapeutic relationship and start the usual one."that's not true. According to the ethical codes of most psychological associations, psychologists are prohibited from being friends with clients both during and after therapy. This rule exists for the safety of the client himself.
