Shrink for the world

I don't really like the tone of this film, it's gloomy like many cities in autumn. With the psychiatrist as the protagonist, a bunch of stories are revealed around him. The stories are fragmented and broken, but they fit together. It should be noted that, in the eyes of Americans, psychiatrists are professionals, just like surgeons, what problems can be solved. But not the protagonist of the film.
This is not a question about the crisis of middle-aged men, it is a question of life and death, existence and disappearance. The only level I can understand at the moment is how much sadness a person's passing will bring to the people around him, so that you can't face it, only "shrink", even if you are a psychiatrist.
The word "face" is very good to write, but when facing, you have to use the "shrink" gesture. Haven't even faced it yet. The same is true for JAMMA, who has been unable to come out because of her mother's departure.
I prefer the description of the male protagonist's inner pain in the first half, but I don't understand much in the second half, but it is suitable for American-style routines. There must be some new romances, right? Actually it is not necessary.
The most uncomfortable thing is that in the end, the male protagonist is alone, turning off the light and sleeping. This bed is his and his wife's history.
But everything can pass. Sad for those who left now, but it will pass. Nothing lasts here forever. your heart. One day, you will be there too. Everything vanished.
What's left?
This is one of the reasons I don't like this movie.
Something will be there.
Isn't now the future?
Eternity will be there.
