ALS Saved My Life ... until it didn't Quotes

“For example, when someone is asking for help, the fear center of the brain lights up. But when someone is helping, the pleasure center lights up. This insight helped me understand that I might be having trouble asking, but in a sense I was giving the helpers a gift of serotonin and dopamine when I asked them for help. It was time for their needs to outweigh my discomfort, and I quickly became a Master.”
