I don't know if I want to be a big star though.
I was diagnosed with everything from schizophrenia to multiple personality disorder.
I belong to the Democratic Party.
When I left my parents' home when I was 19, I went to the University of Florida, and within 24 hours was in the mental health department. And within 20 minutes, I was being told by the director there that they didn't have what I needed there.
I perform in the major leagues of what I do. It's incredible.
I think I wanted to write a book about the relationship between the victim and perpetrator in which the victim agrees to remain silent.

Everyone always told me that I had the symptoms of a P.O.W.
I called my mother up and I said, 'You know, I've been to the best doctors in the world and I've spent almost half a million dollars and they're telling me I have symptoms of a P.O.W. and all I did was grow up in your home.'
If you're injured, it changes the way you move. If you're injured, it changes the way you talk.
If I can get a sanitized version of reality, I'll take it.
Doctors didn't know what to do with me.
