    Why is it important to sit with sadness? How do you sit in sadness with others?
    Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are returning to a very special film, Inside Out. This time they are taking a look at the theme of navigating change, and this time they are joined by three very special guests: screenwriter Meg LeFauve, editor Kevin Nolting, and producer Jonas Rivera. Pixar legends! Jonathan talks about Riley’s struggle with change and how Joy and Sadness navigate that journey within Riley. Each of our guests shares insights into writing and story developments and why Pixar works on one project for so long. And you bet both Jono and Alan are crying in this one. Damn you, Pixar!
    This is a very special episode, and our original Inside Out episode is the video that made us. Thank you for watching!

    I saw this film when my eldest daughter was 1. After the film, my parenting when she was upset evolved to include the phrase “Oh, big sad.” Which then evolved to her being a toddler saying ‘Nah, little sad’ and picking herself up, to her being 8 now and saying ‘It’s actually healthy to cry, Mum.’ 😢❤

    That moment when Riley's hugging her parents at the end...and they welcome her to them, and she just kind of...exhales. And it creates the feeling that she'd been holding her breath THE WHOLE MOVIE, afraid to let it out. Afraid of what would happen if she broke down like this and if she'd still be able to be held like that. Even just remembering that moment breaks me down.

      It reminds me of my favourite scene from Love, Simon. For all its flaws, the scene when his mom says ”you get to exhale now Simon” is one of my favourite scenes out of any movie. It captures the emotions around holding something in and being able to finally let it go so so well. You can see how being able to sit with the fact that he doesn’t have to hide anymore affects Simon and ot gets me every time

    My parents called me their “happy little girl” when I was little. I won’t ever forget when they asked me one day as a teenager when I was going through stuff, “where did our happy little girl go?”. I didn’t know what to say. It’s not like that girl died, she was still inside of me, and I expressed happiness a lot still. I still am a goofy and wisecracking person even as I struggle with depression and anxiety. But now, it’s so complicated. Emotions are hard, and somehow they get harder as you get older. It’s like more knowledge and understanding makes them stronger and more difficult.
    I love that scene at the end where they’re all hugging. The crew behind the movie perfectly captured that “safe hug”, a moment after a rough time when you finally feel safe and secure. It feels so warm and and makes you decompress from whatever just happened.

    • @MagdalenaMantler
      @MagdalenaMantler 2 месяца назад +34

      I would say you grew into additional emotions - that would be my answer nowadays to your parents question.
      I can relate to your description of yourself, I also always was more the happy girl.
      But nowadays I realized that there also always was a big sadness inside of me - not a bad thing, just something that makes me feel more intensely, be more empathic, seing more of the unjustly things that happen in life and which are wrong (and moarning it).
      I also had trouble admitting this to myself - and I am learning more and more to embrace also this side of my character. It is a never ending journey to find out who we are ourselves and I am in awe how I can surprise myself over and over again. I am not that fixated picture someone (or I myself) put on me, I am so much more.
      Thanks for sharing your thoughts, they made me think about interesting things and finding new ways of describing and thinking.

      I had no choice but to stop speaking to my parents a number of years ago, and in my final conversation with my father, he said he refused to accept my sadness, and that he wouldn't take anything less than his "happy little girl." It really broke me. Children grow into being so much more than "happy little," as they should. And they just need a safe space to do it in.

      Thank you so much for your comment! I remember hearing often while growing up "what happened to our happy little boy?" or "you were always such a happy baby, what happened?" It always led to me feeling so invalidated. And yet simultaneously my parents would wonder why I was never able to open up and be emotionally vulnerable with them. Sadly, there was never that "safe hug" moment with them. I'm no contact with them now as the invalidation (among other things) continued got worse into adulthood.
      But reading your comment finally validated everything I felt when they would say those same words to me. Thank you for speaking up about your experiences, and for allowing me to share in it with you.

      I felt this really hard. My parents and extended family talk a lot about how happy and helpful I was as a kid when they reminisce, and for years that's felt like an impossible standard that's slowly crushing me. Between anxiety and chronic fatigue and pain and years of burnout, I often feel like I'm an anchor while that "happy little girl" that lifted everyone up is just gone, even though I know she's still at my core.
      I had a really bad fight with my brother once in my early teens, and although I don't remember anything about the subject or what either of us said besides it was harsh, I do remember my mom's response. "You used to be so kind! What happened to that kind little girl?" It still haunts me almost a decade later. I try to be helpful and kind when I can, but I often don't have the mental or physical energy to get out of bed, let alone regularly go out of my way for others, and being in pain makes me more snappish and bitter than I'd like sometimes. Being hyperaware of those "before" standards that I'm falling short of is so hard, and I wish more parents would realize how damaging those types of questions and statements are.
      There's a small part of me that watches this film and cries every time for that not-as-little girl who was repeatedly told to look on the bright side and power through, and rarely got that big hug she desperately needed.

  • @MineSpeak44
    @MineSpeak44 2 месяца назад +510

    Haven't checked if they address this yet but I think what I love most about this movie is the realization that even with good parenting, mental health can still struggle. These parents play and laugh and smile together and they support her well, they haven't neglected or abused her. But life still brought her down. Just because a kid struggles doesn't mean you're a bad parent, and being a great parent doesn't mean your kids won't ever struggle or need extra help😊

    I had dragged my wife (then gf) to the West Coast out of college, for work and adventure. She was from Minnesota, and would have been completely fine staying there if not for me. Inside Out released about a year after moving, and of course we went to see it because we'd never miss a Disney/Pixar movie. The moment when Riley cries and says, "I miss Minnesota," my wife utterly broke down in the theaters. Like, straight ugly crying. I had no idea what to do, because while I did my best to love and support her, I was ultimately responsible for her feelings of sadness. I took her away from her home, and neither of us were aware of how impactful that would be to her. It took a lot of talk and thought for us to process all of that, and it gave us an opportunity to improve how we communicate and support each other.
    So thanks Pixar, for providing us with that. But I'll never forget how awkward I felt in the theaters with the person I loved having a breakdown that I in no small way caused.

      @@batpat830yo, same! I fell into a deeply depressive state while vacationing in New York some years back and this movie did the same for me. I think it was 2 days after the deep depression started that I finally got myself to sit up in bed, order food, and turn on the tv. As I was channel surfing, up came Inside Out, and I went “Ha! How ironic. Probably not a great idea to watch a movie involving depression while depressed. Or maybe…” I decided to leave it on. It quite literally transitioned me out of that deep depression.
      When I first saw the film in theaters, the moment Joy and Sadness got removed from the control center, I almost immediately froze. Like…oh no…I didn’t realize THIS is what the movie was going to be about. And during that weekend in NYC, my sister asked me what was wrong. And per usual, my answer was “I don’t know. Nothing? Everything?” That’s what depression is-it’s about nothing yet everything is impacted/involved. Something specific may have triggered it but it’s not always obvious. You may be able to identify what happened right before, but you still don’t know what happened to pull you “down” that far, you know? Sadness may preempt depression, but you’re not necessarily experiencing severe sadness, which is a huge misconception. Well, I personally stop feeling sad. However… fear, disgust and anger can pop up. And all of this is precisely why Joy and Sadness being removed and ejected so dramatically from the control center was an immediate point of recognition for me [in identifying what it was representing].

      As someone who suffered from depressive episodes until I got on mood stabilizers at age 29, I agree. "Riley can't feel anything." That's absolute depression.

    My favorite part of the movie was how they showed that the 5 core emotions have layers and different complexities to them instead of just being their primal reaction:
    -Joy has hope, curiosity, pride, love, and tenacity
    -Sadness has empathy/sympathy, care, boredom, lethargy, and calm
    -Disgust has vanity, judgement, morality, and contempt
    -Fear has nervousness, surprise, preparation, and caution
    -Anger has justice, competition, passion, and boldness
    Then by mixing said emotions allows us to feel an entire spectrum. So I'm hoping the new movie adding in 4 new emotions doesn't mess up the current dynamic too much.

    Emotions are so hard to handle and navigate. I use to think I’d eventually fit into my own feelings as I grew but turns out, I grew and my emotions grew more. It just got so much harder to feel like they were *MY* emotions and not just emotions happening *TO* me. Now, I’m trying to learn things as simple as just allowing myself to feel what I’m feeling freely, without needing to categorize, label, rationalize. Just feel.
    This movie is great for kids who might not have access to that kind of education. Emotional intelligence is a skill, it is something invaluable that kids need to learn.

    One of the best parts of this movie is that the story we got almost didn't happen, the original conflict was going to be that Fear was the emotion getting in the way but according to the director it just wasn't working. It took a huge amount of self reflection and reevlation for him to realize that Inside Out needed to be about joy and sadness and give us a film that has the guts that most aren't willing to say at all. The simple message of "it's ok to be sad, it doesn't mean your weak." all too often is pushed away or rejected because people don't wanna accept it.

    I'm a licensed Social Worker and when I was in grad school we talked about the specific part in Inside Out when Joy is trying to focus on the positive and the end goal of getting back to the rest of the emotions. Whereas, when sadness is sad WITH Bing Bong, it makes him feel better. Sitting with someone in their sadness with them is uncomfortable, but when we do it, we connect with each other and not only actually care about one another, but also show that we care to the other person. Trying to move past the sadness of where someone is at is only going to make someone feel dismissed, un-heard, dis-connected, and even more sad but probably also a bit of shame. Why should they be feeling sad? The other person is telling them it's not so bad. So, why doesn't it feel better? I loved the first reaction to this movie and I'm glad they did this one!!

I have too many parents come into my office and seek my services because their child "gets overly emotional." Okay, why is experiencing emotion bad? More often than not, it is the adults getting uncomfortable/unsure with the emotions that is the struggle.

      There are no bad emotions to have, but there are many bad ways to express those emotions. My developmentally disabled older brother (64) who is being care for by our mother (84) has got it in his head it's bad to repress emotions and they shouldn't be held in. Their many disagreements quickly escalate and although he hasn't hit her (as far as I know), from the one's I've seen, it wouldn't surprise me if one day he killed her.

When I came home, I knew I needed help processing what I was going through so I watched Inside Out and remembered the CT commentary on why its message was so important. This part 2 could not have dropped at a more perfect time. The technical and filmmaming side of why Inside Out tells its story so well really speaks to the holistic nature of the human experience.

    Even then the emotions see this and react almost shocked or confused like “Wait why is joy doing that?”

    As someone who started experiencing depression at a slightly younger age than Riley, and who moved house at the same age, this movie means so much to me. Something I think a lot of people don't understand about depression is that it isn't just an absence of joy, but it can also be sadness. When you can't really feel anymore healthy emotions, and are stuck with fear, anger, or disgust and nothing else to balance them out. The scene when Riley gets home and cries is the first scene in a Pixar movie to ever make me cry. I bawled in that moment. Grieving memories both from when I lived in my childhood home, and before I started developing my mental health issues hurt. It's real, visceral grief and this was the first time I saw that displayed and validated on screen. I love this move.

      I loved that Inside Out dipped its toes into exploring this more by showing us that Riley's mom and dad have different emotions as their central 'leader' at the console - dad's being anger, and mom's being her sadness iirc. I hope the second movie explores that more, because which emotion people tend to comfortably fall back on changes the lessons about which emotions they need to learn to embrace more.

      I want a whole series for Inside Out that lasts a long time with each season (or however many seasons are needed to explore the moment presented in their life) being a different person and why/how they react to external forces due to their emotion. I feel like it could go on and change over time and be a little time capsule of moments in history as well.

    This movie came out when I was Riley’s age and it made me cry.
    I’m in the first couple years of adulthood now and it still makes me cry, it hits in the same ways as well as in new ones.
    Damm you Pixar 😭

    When Inside Out came out, I was a nine year old girl who had just been put in the same position as Riley. I was so shocked at how much the same our stories were, and the timing! I had moved states, left all my friends, and I lived in a cramped house in a not great neighborhood. I SOBBED basically the entire time through that movie, and every time I watch it I can't help but remember little me who really needed this movie when it came out. This is always going to be one of my favorite movies even though my parents don't like it and don't understand why I like it. As an artist now, it's so meaningful to see the love, care, and attention that went into making it, and someday maybe I'll get to make something as beautiful for someone who needs it

    The scene when Riley starts crying after she tried to run away never fails to make me cry.
    It's not even by making me think of _my_ personal things(that is sometimes required idk I hope I'm not a narcissist).. just seeing the scene alone makes me cry. That's some good animation/story!

    Something major “Inside Out” made me realize, is thanks to the one single line that “Disgust keeps us from being poisoned”.
    This explains why I always found myself in toxic relationships. Because I didn’t allow myself to feel disgusted by bad behaviour... 🤢
    It was poisonous indeed. Destructive.
    Write Inside out 3 about that, and the world will be better for it alright

    • @sathvamp1
      @sathvamp1 2 месяца назад

      Since you're a therapist I want to share that this particular video really got me to and this is I think why: It has taken me a while, but it was this movie (AND their RUclips reviews on it... BOTH of them- this one being a very important player) ... which has allowed me to turn bittersweet memories that I'd been just trying to distract myself from "sitting with" ... into cathartic, appreciative revisitations. In my first watch of "Inside Out", I learned the actual value of tears (ironically, after trying NOT to shed them, while watching the movie with my roommates!) ... namely, how tears can release painkilling endorphins and oxytocin along with them. I had definitely noticed... with my [otherwise-successful] attempt to NOT cry upon my first watch, suppressing those tears was VERY PAINFUL... so much so, that I vowed to never again try so hard to suppress tears, lol. Again, it took another good while, but I eventually realized there were thoughts and memories I was unconsciously [repressing?] - pushing away without realizing it "because they were too painful". This upload helped me to realize that and make some good mental progress with productively facing those things :)

  • @KaiAquila

    This movie really got me when I first saw it, because I feel, like even though I'm in my late twenties, I've yet come to this acceptance of sadness. Growing up, my siblings struggled with immense mental health problems, one being transsexual and depressed, the other has BPD and was heavily suicidal. I always tried to be the happy one, the one my parents didn't need to worry about. Flash forward to me being 25 and having horrible panic attacks at least twice a week, while my then boyfriend told me, that noone else would want me, with these attacks. I felt so ashamed for not being able to keep it together, even though objectively my life was going great. Then I got together with my husband and he helped me understand, that feeling helpless and sad is okay. And that you don't need to push it aside and repress it. I still struggle with this concept of not being happy all of the time, but I can deal better now, knowing, that my friends and family won't hate me for one bad day.
    The way Joy tries and tries and tries so hard during this movie to always push on, to motivate others, to make them happy; when she broke down, I felt that. Because it's exhausting. People tell you, they like that you're like a ray of sunshine and envy you for always being so happy. They don't realize the effort that takes. How draining it is to always be on. I felt seen by this movie.

  • @avalon1007

    This is an incredibly powerful movie for me. For my entire life, my family always described me as their happy kid, to the point where I had (and have) serious difficulty communicating my non-happy emotions to my loved ones. But that feeling of relief when Riley is welcomed by her parents being portrayed as a combination of joy and sadness after everything has been overridden by anger, fear, disgust (and other not portrayed emotions) is very much how I felt as an adult, telling my parents how difficult it was for me to tell them when I was having a hard time. Grappling with challenging emotions is a lifelong process, thank you all for revisiting this amazing movie.

  • @esthers.9185
    @esthers.9185 2 месяца назад +3

    I feel like I had the exact same experience that Riley had in the first half of the movie. When I was a teen, my family moved from an area (near Minnesota) all the way across the country and I never got a say in it. I had to start a new school, and I was expected to be my usual happy self as I started to go through major depression and anxiety.
    I didn't, however, get a wholesome and healing moment with my parents like Riley did, I still haven't gotten them to understand that I was extremely sad to leave my childhood home and have to start anew, but watching Inside Out made my heart both break and heal when I saw Riley getting that moment of closure with her parents and being able to communicate with them that she was sad, with them telling her they were sad too and that it was okay to be sad.
    I'm super thankful for the Inside Out creators and all of the cast and crew for making this amazing film and for continuing on with Inside Out 2! The second movie seems to include Anxiety as a new emotion, which I again can relate to on a very deep level, so I'm excited to see the second film, but I will also have to bring the tissues with me as well. 😅

    "Feeling most loved at your saddest moments" is such a wonderful way to put it
    I went through a miscarrage last year, and despite being the worst thing (both physically and mentally) to go through, it was also the time I felt most loved. Everyone, both my family and my in-laws, bound together to help me through it, even if it was just small things like food or checking up on me
    I'm especially thankful for my in-laws, since they were dealing with their own loss in the family only a week before it happened. They had every right to not being available, and yet, despite their own greif, they came to support me
    As someone who is suffering with depression, it was the most overwhelmed with love I have ever felt. I was incredibly lucky to have such a loving family

    1. My two favourite shots in this movie are, firstly, when Riley's on the bus, and Sadness gets the idea out of her head, and you see that CHANGE on Riley's face where it's like, "Oh my God, I just woke up," and, secondly, the one you mention at the beginning, where she's hugging her parents, and...I could pinpoint the second when bittersweet becomes a thing. To my (albeit limited) experience of depression, coming OUT of depression is like waking up. I had that moment where I looked out my window, and just, very subtly, softly, thought to myself, "Oh...the sun is shining." It feels very mundane, but anyone who's experienced this knows that the ENTIRE landscape changed right there.
    2. LOL, Jono's fan-boy-ing at the start over the people y'all are working with. SPECTACULAR film, for the record. Among Pixar's best. Actually, I think it might be my favourite Pixar movie.
    3. Oh Gods, Bing-Bong, my heart, my heart! YOU CAN'T OPEN WITH THIS! But I guess you just did. Sniffle...
    4. I was literally YESTERDAY-years-old when I realized that, of course, Sadness wouldn't have been there for any of the Bing-Bong memories, so she can only imagine, rather than remember, what happened at those times. But is it sadness that makes us capable of empathy, Jono? I think it comes from selflessness, but does THAT have to come from sadness? By the way, "Sadness", capital S, character, "sadness', lower-case, emotion. Same with the others. We clear on my formula? Cool.
    5. Riley stopping her parents from fighting...YEP. Been there fifty billion times. I'm 33 and I've been pulling that sh*t since I was 12. I do wish they could just, you know, "adult", she uses as a verb, but then again, MOST adults are screwed up, aren't we? Some 40% of Americans have clinical depression...? Or am I wrong about that? No really, I'm asking.
    6. I don't get the backlash against Hawaiian pizza. And I'M ITALIAN, so you'd think I'd know better, but real Italians don't eat pizza the way we do here. I'm in Canada, but same crap food as in America, really. You want closer to the real thing/ Order bruschetta the next time you go out somewhere nice.
    7. My childhood would like to thank Jonas for Toy Story...though not for the Uncanny Valley human faces. It was the tech at the time, though, so all is forgiven.
    8. VERY happy you did not make this a silent movie. While I love the design of WALL-E, I'm visually impaired, so, for me, sound is A LOT. Not totally blind, but enough that, if I don't have sound to clarify what I'm seeing, I'll get confused. I haven't watched WALL-E in years for that reason.
    9. "I want to go home." DESTROYED. Every single time, I'm DESTROYED by that. Cry like a baby. It's good for you. And wait for iiiiiiit...29:03. My favourite shot in the movie. Just like Alan. And who can I thank for the piano score? I'm a pianist, and it's PERFECT.

    My best friend, who I’ve known since middle school, and I saw this. She doesn’t typically get emotional with movies, and I do on occasion, but we both cried SO HARD after the movie. I feel like whether you’re a parent or not (and I’m saying that because Riley’s relationship with her parents does have tie-in to the story), this movie just really resonates with you. And my best friend and I aren’t parents!
    I resonated with what Jonathan said about how “when we focus on feeling happy no matter what, we deny what’s real, and what’s real is the things that matter, and when we lose them, it hurts.” My grandma, who was my best friend, passed away 8 years ago, and I was trying so hard to focus on other things and be happy, that when I got the last letter she wrote to me (the day before her funeral), the dam just broke (for lack of better phrasing) and I cried with my cousins (I don’t remember what my parents were doing at the time), since I couldn’t understand how to process anything I was feeling. I was so focused on staying distracted so I wouldn’t break that when I did, it hurt so much. I knew my grandma wouldn’t want me to be sad forever, but it hurt for the longest time. And I’ve learned to accept it and live with it. She would have been 100 last summer, and I bought a chocolate cupcake with peanut butter icing, (her favorite flavors) lit a candle and sang happy birthday. I cried a mix of sad tears and happy tears and it’s ok to feel both!

    Isn’t it cool that all the different emotions rolling in on the ”emotion shelf” is everything but sadness, when all feelings is fighting over the remote. But sadness never gets the chance to be in charge, while the others do. And that’s kind of how the brain works right? Anger usually covers up sadness? And anxiety covers up anger? So when Riley needs to be sad - all the other emotions are overwhelming and it feels chaotic. Therefore she needs to sort out every emotion to se what is deep underneath. Genious! Thank you for this movie
