Make Up Your Mind/Catch me I’m Falling (Reprise)

[DR. MADDEN]
Make up your mind, this is clarity
Clarity that you did not have before
The treatment is strong, but lasts only so long
It may be your mind's needing more

[DIANA, spoken]
Let's say that's not it

[Dr. MADDEN, spoken]
The E.C.T. is powerful, it gave you your life back
But the effects fade, and additional treatments are almost always needed

[DIANA, spoken]
That wasn't on the form

[DR. MADDEN]
Make up your mind that you'll try again
Make up your mind, there are moments of light
The one thing that's sure is that there is no cure
But that doesn't mean we don't fight

[DIANA, DR. MADDEN, spoken]
Catch me, I'm falling
We'll return to talk therapy
Sinking and sprawling
There's still work to do
Maybe I'll let myself fall

[DIANA & GABE, DR. MADDEN, spoken]
Watch me, I'm falling
We might have to look at, uh
Maybe the falling
A new drug regimen

[DIANA & GABE DR. MADDEN, spoken]
Isn't so bad after all (Make up your mind to be free)
There are other promising therapies
Isn't so bad after all (Make up your mind to be free)
E.M.D.R., for instance, or rTMS
Watch me, I'm falling (Make up your mind)
Watch me, I'm flying (Make up your mind)
Somehow surviving (Make up your–)

[DR. MADDEN, spoken]
Diana, you have a chronic illness
Like diabetes or hypertension, if left untreated it could be catastrophic

[DIANA, spoken]
I understand
But there has to be another way

[DR. MADDEN]
Stay with me, try again
Don't walk out on treatment, don't lose what you've won
You've struggled for years but you've only begun

[DIANA, spoken]
My first psychiatrist told me that, according to the manual
Grief that continues past six months is pathological, and should be medicated
Six months
For the life of my child
Who makes these decisions?

[DR. MADDEN, spoken]
It's a guideline, nothing more

[DIANA, spoken]
Yes
Nothing more

[DR. MADDEN]
Stay with me, try again
Is medicine magic? You know that it's not
We know it's not perfect, but it's what we've got
It's all that we've got
