But it wasn't like it wasn't doing what it finally ended up doing when I really just made it personalized and found a way to talk about it that made everyone go, well, I guess we can't be mad she's talking about this because it is something she's thought about. And it's maybe something that we've thought about, too, that we're kind of ashamed we've thought about.

It's hard to perform when I'm really, really depressed. But I will say that it's hard to get to the theater and to be backstage and to think, I'm about to go do this thing. I have to turn this on. But I will say the second I step out there, the adrenaline kicks in and it will... offer me relief. And then I get in and then I'm able to be honest about it.

Like I can kind of that's the nice thing about doing stand up is I don't have to perform just these the same songs every night or the same play. It's like I get to kind of say what I want to say so I can kind of talk about it and work through it in that way. And then, yeah, I mean, I would say yes about comedy lifting me out of it.

I think that that's why I tend to make fun of it is because I need to like laugh about how awful I feel. And but I will say, reaching for a stand-up special or a show that makes me laugh is not a thing that I go to as much as I probably should when I'm feeling depressed.

It's... I get into the kind of depression where I almost, like, want it to stay because I feel like it's... this is the real way I'm supposed to feel and I don't want to be tricked into thinking things are all right. And when I'm in those deep depressions, when they really take hold, there's really nothing but waiting sometimes that'll get me out of it. And also meds. But...

I'm learning to more often turn to comedy and watching something that will make me laugh. Like I think you should leave or veep or putting on a Seinfeld to reorient me. But it has to be early stages of when I just get those first kind of – I think of depression as like getting a flu.

And when I first get those sniffles or a little sore throat, like a little tingle in the back of my throat of depression, that's when I need to throw on some comedy. And it really does help. And I'm realizing that late in my life, actually. My depression is way more in check now.

No, I get roasted by me. That's the thing. It's like I developed this skill because of what I say to myself a lot of times. I think I just made that connection recently of like, I think on this last roast, I'm thinking, what are they going to say about me? And I'm like, you've already said it to yourself at some point. Like, they can't come at you for anything wrong. I mean, they find a way.
