I lived in a state of rage from 12 to 20. Until college, I was beyond an outsider. I was a voyeur of life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was a complete outsider in high school.
As a teenager at high school, I felt like an outsider.
I was a very isolated teenager.
I was a quiet teenager, introverted, full of angst.
I lived a very isolated life. When you start at 20, you have a lot of nonsense to work out of your system.
I don't know if I was so much of an outsider until after I started doing films. That put me on the outside. I grew up in Texas, and I wasn't the child of industry parents, and I didn't have a lot of friends in the industry or anything like that.
I didn't have a dysfunctional childhood or young adulthood, but I was somebody who was very much raised to do what other people told me to do as a person.
I grew up in a family that was multifaceted, sexually oriented, and pretty much open to everything. And because I was working, my friends were all adults. I had a tough time going to different schools because people knew me from films and I was the fat child who got beaten up every day.
I went through a period of great rebellion within my family, when I was about 9 or 10. I was mad, I had no focus, had no real interest in anything, and so I started to do things that were just rebellious and stupid.
I was the punk outsider who nobody messed with. I was fearless. At 16, I graduated and moved out.
