I've read a couple of things that I was sort of close to having a nervous breakdown. But I don't think I was. I was very, very tired. It was a really difficult time.

I was just absolutely exhausted. The media said I've been treated for a nervous breakdown. All that stuff I just took as people taking the opportunity when you're down to give you a kick.

The two times I had nervous breakdowns in my life were when I graduated from college and had my first kid.

I don't know, I think, in times where I'm really nervous, and I'm really under the pressure the worst possible outcome is for me to start thinking about it. I just do.

I was so devastated by my second divorce that I had a nervous breakdown.

I had panic attacks during rehearsal. There were times when I really thought I wasn't going to be able to do it.

I felt like I was the only person on the planet with this 'thing called depression', and I remember being frightened. I was knocked out and dopey, and I cried all of the time.

If you say you've had a nervous breakdown or things aren't right mentally, people run away from you. They think you're from 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest,' you know.

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important.
