#1: Detox.
“Yeah, I’m an addict.”“Okay.”“I’m not stopping.”“There are programs. Cuddy would give you the time. You could get on a different pain management regimen…”“I don’t need to stop.”“You just said…”“I said I was an addict. I didn’t say I had a problem. I pay my bills, I make my meals. I function.”“Is that all you want? You have no relationships.”“I don’t want any relationships.”“You alienate people.”“I’ve been alienating people since I was three.”“Oh, come on! Drop it! You don’t think you’ve changed in the last few years?”“Well, of, of course I have. I’ve… I’ve gotten older. My hair’s gotten thinner. Sometimes I’m bored, sometimes I’m lonely, sometimes I wonder what it all means.”“No, I was there! You are not just a regular guy who’s getting older, you’ve changed! You’re miserable, and you’re afraid to face yourself…”“Of course I’ve changed!”“And everything’s the leg? Nothing’s the pills? They haven’t done a thing to you?”“They let me do my job, and they take away my pain. “
“For eight years, I worked as hard as I knew how, to make House as good as it could be. I frothed and fretted over every detail, every line, every moment. Driving home in the small hours, I pounded the steering wheel as I replayed mistakes in my mind. I tossed and turned every night, plotting the next day’s maneuvers, until I reached moments of near-madness — some would say nearer than near — because I loved House with all my heart, and loved the other characters and the world in which they moved just as much.”
- Hugh Laurie
