Throughout the movie the main character's transformation into a different person can be seen through a couple different ways. For starters you watch as the main character struggles to remember if/when he last took his pills. As this happens you witness him start to up the dosages of the prescription medication that he is taking. As the main character progressively takes more and more of the pills you notice a more drastic change in the both his personality and his relationships with his family. This can be seen when he starts ranting at the parent-teacher conference about the problems with today's youths without a single care about what his audience thinks about his opinions. No matter how shocking they may be.
A drastic change in his relationships with his family is also seen. The main character's relationship grows tense between he and his wife as he increases the dosages of Cortisone. Eventually he gets to the point where he writes her off all together stating that he sees their relationship as that of a divorced couple and the only reason he stays around is for their son.
Throughout this film you watch as the main character starts out living a normal life up until he is diagnosed and prescribed Cortisone pills. After his start of cortisone you witness slight quirks that start popping up in his daily life and routine. Before you know it, the main character is nowhere near the same personality as the man that was introduced at the start of the film.
