== Synopsis ==
== Synopsis ==
'None of us has escaped the injuries and indignities of growing up;
all of us bear the scars of that process&hellip;' Joe says we can turn
our psychic pathologies into something beautiful through
psychotherapy.  Then he describes why people are turning to
psychotherapy by phone: it avoids the burden of traveling, removes the
distractions of the office, other patients, the psychotherapists'
quirks&hellip;
6:20: He calls 'tele-counsel of Los Angeles' (apparently fictional),
gets a humorous phone message, apparently chooses '9', for depression,
gets a recorded message from Dr Jerome Nierenberg (sp?), who's busy.
8:10: A woman ([[Laura Esterman]]?) tells a story about a dream.
She's in a room with a bunch of men who talk about politics.  She
tells them it's really about a cow thrown over a cliff, which
represents the way men treat women.  John (this is a group therapy
session) says that he's unsympathetic, that women have all power.  A
second guy ([[Larry Block]]) sees both of their points of view.  The
therapist asks another woman, Stella, what she thinks.  Others
participate.
19:20: Joe talks about audio Rorschach tests, plays some audio clips
for us to react to.
21:20: Donald ([[Eliot Wilder]]) tells Joe he's obsessed with this woman.  Joe asks
Donald questions about her.
22:20: Joe asks philosophical questions: 'What is truth?', 'Where is
god?'&hellip;, tells us that questions don't matter.  Donald chimes
in.
23:20: Joe asks Donald if this woman doesn't give him a heightened
sense of life, suggests he express himself (screaming, for example) as
an outlet for his feelings.
25:00: Joe describes therapy by FAX.
26:30: 'Neurosis is the sprung tourniquet on the hemorrhage of
feelings&hellip;' Joe makes a series of metaphors for neurosis.
27:00: 'There is no permanence, nothing is forever&hellip;' Joe tells
us that if we accept nothing we will have everything.
