The Checkup with Doctor Mike · What Hollywood Gets Wrong About Mental Illness | Dr. Eric Bender · 1 Oct 2025 podcast

He said, really?

So there was something to learn from that.

I gave it up because it was important to me to connect with this person, this wife, had to see about a girl.

And so Will Huntington can understand that.

So you can self-disclose to help the patient, not for him to say, oh, I'm so sorry you missed the game.

That must've been terrible.

So there are a lot of aspects of this movie that I really have liked.

That's debatable.

I think in the movie, there's insight that the doctor, that Sean McGuire has into Will that allows him to know that's okay to share.

And that comes from knowing your patient.

If you're just sharing that willy-nilly with somebody, I think that's not helpful for the patient.

But if I've gotten to know a patient and their issues over time, I might say,

you know, when I, I only reveal something about myself when I think it can be helpful.

So I want to, I feel compelled to tell you that I had this experience and it really made me see things differently because I think it can help them see something differently.

So I don't think he overshared in that case.

If he started to go into, and then I cried and then I was in my bed for this many days, I did this, then it becomes more about him.

But when you share enough, so it's, it's for the patient to grab onto and do something with for themselves.

That's,

I think it is.

But I don't go that far.
