Every time I see a reference to that book/movie I get a lump in my throat because, as SLS said, to finally get to experience one's consciousness fully and feel alive instead of feeling like an unwanted visitor in your own skin, apart from and inferior to every other being, destined never to even have the capacity to know what it feels like to feel fulfilled, part of something, living up to one's potential, goal-directed, etc., only to have it wane again hours to weeks later.
This happened to me over and over with d-amphetamine as it has to so many dysthymics who for some reason just don't feel reward.
