So that just sounds really ridiculous.

But the reality is that when you go through something yourself, you then go, oh crap.

Like I remember me and my friends didn't believe, when you were in your teens, you didn't believe depression was real.

When we were young, like you didn't believe depression was real.

And then you go through, I've been through depressive episodes in my life.

You go through it and you go,

God, I didn't even think my brain could go there.

And anyone who has a friend who's gone through depression, who's potentially even had suicidal thoughts, like anyone who's had anyone in their life who's gone that, you've seen how quickly someone that you thought was happy, confident, and well became all of the opposite things.

And so regardless of whether...

we immediately understand what you're saying.

I just hope we use it as an opportunity to expand our compassion and empathy for each other, because I think we know so little about the human mind and human brain and all of these things.

And, oh, sorry, Gwen, you were going to say something.

Kelly and I have done a lot of things and played a lot of roles over the years, but both of us are just so proud to have been part of Family Matters.

We could give you a whole brand new thing where you're like super charming all the time.

I think it's also really from what I see from what you're saying is because it's been a journey while you're writing, while you're speaking, is that you can have these thoughts, you can mask them, work on them and still do things.

And I think a lot of us feel like until I figure everything out, I can't do anything.

And what I think you're saying and showing is, no, I've been feeling all of this.

Here are the management methods that I've come up with and the steps that actually I'm going to deal with it.

And then I can still do these things.

And partly what you're saying though, Roxy, I think is part of you being a public figure too, because, and this applies to everyone now, it's not just a public figure, it truly applies to everyone.
