It's possible he was talking about the mental problems casued by using the suit, but I think it's more a matter of the stress that was put on his body over the years. There was a time in the comics when he was confined to 10 feet and called himself Goliath, the stress from going to being Giant Man to Ant-Man was the cause.
Ant-Man: Grade, Review, Discuss, Sequels?...SPOILERS likely

Was Cross really supposed to have already been driven insane by the particles? The line I recall was something like Exposure to the particles can cause insanity, bla bla, : "I don't believe Darren realizes this." I took it to say that Cross was on a dangerous path with no idea what he was about to do to himself, not that he was already functionally insane due to the particles.
^ I don't recall the exact dialogue but my recollection is that it was essentially said that Cross was already an unstable personality and exposure to the particle had worsened this.
I figured that it was something like that.
I guess it's too early to hope for a screengrab of it.

Look for the channel UnpopularCulture on Youtube. They have a stillshot in their review.
Only A to F options ? No A+ to F- ?
Great film, loved it !
Certainly in my top 5 Marvel movies (with IM1, Avengers 1, Guardians and Winter Soldier), great nods to wider Marvel continuity, well paced and well written. It may have had a troubled gestation but it's no Frankensteins monster.
Michael Douglas was great. I'd really like to see some of the 1960's Ant Man adventures !
I believe so. Although I have heard 'Eternity' mentioned as well.

Right now, a series following the adventures of young Agent Pym sounds better than another season of Agent Carter, and I like that show.
If there's 10 years between each season of Agent Carter, which no one has suggested that there might be, so we could very well see a lot of characters that we are aware of as toddlers and adolescents.

How about a link and timestamp?
The image in question is at 15:20.

Thanks for that.
Could be her, could be a CGI smudge.

OK, so everyone points to the same image, it's just a debate over what it is. While I could plausibly see a silhouette of Jan, it's also plausibly Eternity (who wouldn't even need to be a silhouette since Eternity always looks kinda like that).
That would be pretty difficult as in the continuity (per a line from the film itself); Hank Pym made the Pym Particle breakthrough in 1975. It appears most of Hank and Janet's adventures took place in the 1980ies.
For me, the tell is that they never showed Jan's face even in old photographs. They obviously have plans for her and didn't want to commit to an actress yet.
I suspect that's more likely them just keeping their options open, rather than having any deliberate plans. They don't even know if there's going to be another Ant-Man film, and per Feige they haven't decided where Hope/Wasp will make her costumed debut.

Janet died in the 80s, but I don't recall anything else in the movie. Do you remember when they talked about that?
