“Recounting our experiences gives us mastery over them. Whether in the context of psychotherapy, talking to an AA sponsor, confessing to a priest, confiding in a friend, or writing in a journal, our honest disclosure brings our behavior into relief, allowing us in some cases to see it for the first time.”
Anna Lembke, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence

“Telling the truth draws people in, especially when we’re willing to expose our own vulnerabilities…People come closer. They see in our brokenness their own vulnerability and humanity. They are reassured that they are not alone in their doubts, fears, and weaknesses.”
Anna Lembke, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence
