Actors take risks all the time. We put ourselves on the line. It is creative to be able to interpret someone's words and breathe life into them.
From Patty Duke
I believe that all the important people in my life prior to 1982 were victimized by my illness.
I never did quite fit the glamour mode. It is life with my husband and family that is my high now.
My recovery from manic depression has been an evolution, not a sudden miracle.
The panic attacks - I still have them. They started when I was around 8. They always have to do with my death.
I knew from a very young age that there was something very wrong with me.
I still have highs and lows, just like any other person. What's missing is the lack of control over the super highs, which became destructive, and the super lows, which are immediately destructive.
The Eleanor Roosevelt Award that I received for women's rights activities is one I treasure.
I can't tell you what I had for breakfast, but I can sing every single word of rock and roll.
I joke around a lot about the manic times because they're funny. We manics do outrageous things and it is part of our colorful nature.
