Grey's Anatomy [Izzie] - Why Am I Alone

While collecting clips for future Grey's vids, I stumbled across a quote from Izzie in S3 that was SO perfect for the way her life spirals out of control during seasons 5 and 6 (and how her character was barely recognizable by the time she left the show). It was originally going to be a much shorter vid, but it sort of took hold and grew on me. :)

The song is a chopped up and edited down version of "Heysatan" by Sigur Ros (their music is so excellent for vidding!).

Voice overs:

Izzie: "I felt like... I'm moving in slow motion. Like I'm moving in slow motion and everything around me is... moving so fast, and I just want to go back... to when things were normal.
And I'm... just stuck. And there's all this pressure 'cause everyone's hovering around me, waiting for me to do something... or say something or flip out, or yell or cry some more. I'm happy to play my part. I'm happy to say the lines, do whatever it is... that I'm supposed to be doing if it'll make everyone feel more comfortable. But I don't... I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to be this person, I... I don't know who this person is.
How did this happen? How did we end up here...? Why am I alone?
I made a mistake, I...
Please don't take this away from. I don't have anything left."
Meredith: "This is your home."
Izzie: "No it's not. Not anymore."
Meredith: "Please don't go?"
Izzie: "I need to start over."

Oh my... my Izzie *bawl* Beautiful... and tbh, it really shows exactly how her life spiraled out of control and the last straw being George and then when the chief fired her, she just couldn't go on. Thanks for this beautiful depiction of the struggles of one of my all-time fave characters.

Wow, amazing amazing video, Red. You really showcased how much Izzie changed in seasons 5 and , how her life went out of control and how lost she felt. It is almost painful to watch what was done to her, and you picked such powerful scenes. This is your most powerful video so far. You keep amazing.

@mariem201 Thanks Marie!! Your comment means a lot to me. I absolutely chose my scenes with care, so I'm glad you felt I got the feel of everything properly across. :)

@HPfane777 Yes, for sure. It is from Season 3, Episode 1 "Time Has Come Today" when Izzie is laying on the bathroom floor talking to Mer.

@HPfane777 Could you tell me from which ep exactly is the first quote. I really could use it
