I have lows, you know, everybody does ... but I kind of know how to handle it. I like to let myself wallow in it. I enforce it with terribly sad music, and it kind of pushes me through to the other side eventually, and I always know it's going to pass.

I can only speak from my own experience, and I would say that the depression I experienced feels like a chemical change. When it came over me, when it comes over me, it feels like it's coming over me like a flu.

I had a lot of depression as a kid.

It shows the truth - that the real meaning of a word is only as powerful or harmless as the emotion behind it.

I think when you're 25 you're still finding yourself, and you should have the freedom of that.

My mom was always someone who if, even now, I say I met a certain famous person, she always says, "She's married to so and so!"

By the time I would have graduated, at 22, I was a writer and featured performer on Saturday Night Live.
