#not an easy fix

“So many of us, for a variety of reasons, struggle with self worth.  And I think for me, I like to talk about that anxiety because I think people look at people who are on television or in movies and think ‘well they’ve made it’ and don’t have those same kind of anxieties, but it doesn’t change.  It just becomes a challenge of how do you work with it, instead of allowing it to consume you.”

I love and hate this.  I love the reminder that “success” doesn’t fix anxiety or depression or other issues.  And I hate that there’s not an easy fix.  As hard as it is to become a television star, there are days it seems easier than dealing with my own issues.
