00:00How do you deal with your anger?
00:13Well, obviously not very well. That's why I'm here.
00:16It was a lot of things, you know?
00:18I mean, I get in fights. I like to fight.
00:20What do I like the best about myself?
00:24I don't know.
00:25You don't think you chose the actions that caused you to be in this room right now, sitting in front of me?
00:33I didn't choose to be here.
00:33You didn't choose to bash that kid's head in with a baseball bat?
00:37Oh my God!
00:41My mom never hits me. She just...
00:44is always saying really, really horrible things to me.
00:47I'm scared of you sometimes.
00:55Does that make sense?
00:56I'm scared of myself sometimes.
00:59I'm just curious how someone as intelligent as you
01:03could hurt another human being that bad and have no remorse for him.
01:10I want each of you to tell me something right now that gives your life meaning.
01:14Freedom.
01:14Freedom.
01:15Yeah!
01:16Sex is meaningful.
01:18You've had sex.
01:20Keeping it real, you know what I'm saying?
01:21So friendship.
01:23Camaraderie.
01:25What about you, Lyle?
01:29What gives your life meaning?
01:32A painting, it has borders.
01:34It ends here, here, here, and here.
01:37All paintings are like that.
01:38You're just saying what you want to see.
01:40You and me just get out of here and go to Amsterdam.
01:42Yeah, I feel like a real life, you know?
01:46Are you scared?
01:47No.
01:49Lyle, wherever you're going, you are still gonna be there.
01:52What am I supposed to do?
01:53You cut yourself.
01:54You slam your head into walls.
01:55I'm surrounded with ads.
01:57I know it's gonna go on forever.
01:58You did stuff that I shouldn't have done.
02:00You're gonna have this rage until you die.
02:02You don't want to go home, don't you, pal?
02:03I mean, look at it, mate.
02:04Is this what you call mental health?
02:05Mr. Jenkins.
02:06Get back in your room.
02:07I'm working on myself this time.
02:09I get stripped all day long!
02:10Just because she's my mom, I'm not supposed to have her back.
02:12I'm really sorry.
02:13You think sorry does anything?
02:15Answer me!
02:15I think you're the only one who's ever been depressed.
02:17Why are you here, man?
02:18Why are you alive?
02:19Mom, just tell them I'm not crazy!
02:21Waste away, Waste away!
