Weird, lonely people need music and art to rally around.
Ever felt like you're battling two sides of yourself? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer chats with Matthew Quick, the bestselling author of *The Silver Linings Playbook*. Matthew opens up about his journey with mental health and the constant tug-of-war between the good and bad wolves within us. He dives into the importance of intrinsic goals, how exercise can combat negativity, and why sometimes quitting is the right choice.
The conversation also touches on imposter syndrome and the myth that money and fame bring happiness. Matthew shares his thoughts on finding authenticity in social settings and the power of literature and art to create a sense of belonging, especially for those who feel different or isolated. If you've ever struggled with self-doubt or wondered how to find your tribe, this episode offers a heartfelt and honest perspective.
