Private Practice, Season 6, Episode 1, "Aftershock."  16:37

Addison:  I'm not me.

Jake:  Need a little help  following here...

Addison:  I got up at 5.  I do that when you stay over. I am not stunning in the morning.  I'm kind of a hot mess.  But when you see me I'm all "made up," because I'm trying to be all I can be, but I'm failing miserably because I just used an army slogan to make my point. Forget it, I, I don't know what I'm saying.

Jake:  No, no, keep talking. One of us will figure it out.

Addison:  I check my phone.  A LOT.  I'm like willing it to buzz, because it might be you! And then when it is you, I get this feeling in my stomach.  It's like, um, could be butterflies?  But it hurts, it's like, .... PAIN.  Actual, physical pain, like, like, an ulcer, or a tumor, but it's not. It's *you*.

Jake:  Did you just refer to me as cancer?

Addison:  I can't focus, I forget to eat, I am insecure and jealous... I more closely resemble my 14-year-old self than the woman I have come to recognize as me which is what I meant when I said "I'm not me", which is also what I meant when I, yes, maybe accidentally referred to you as cancer.

Jake: I'm in love with you too.
