“When you know all of those things exist for other people but not for you, sometimes it’s very hard to endure the not having.”

“Mrs. Plotnick had learned from observing many patients over the years that the majority of patients felt well for the first month after they stopped taking their medication: The medication’s unpleasant side effects ceased, and their psychotic symptoms didn’t reappear, because there was a considerable amount of medication left in their systems. As a result, many patients thought they hadn’t needed the medication in the first place. During the second month off medication, many patients began to decompensate. By the third month, many were psychotic.”

“Miss Frumkin rummaged through her bag looking for a spoon. She seemed to be aware that there was no spoon in the bag, but she insisted on rummaging anyway. Finding no spoon, she took out her toothbrush and began to eat the yogurt with the toothbrush. Miss O’Reilly laughed at her. Miss Frumkin didn’t seem to mind. “They laughed at Bell and they laughed at Edison,” she said, throwing the toothbrush into the wastebasket. She finished eating the yogurt with her fingers.”
