What I'm trying to say is: it gets boring when nothing meaningful is discussed about it.

It's suddenly a "woman issue."

I'm a comedian, and I have my share of anxiety and depression; so do most of my friends. My humor tends to lie in the juxtaposition of extreme lightness - I'm a huge musical-theater fan - and extreme darkness. And so I really like playing with those because that's how I feel.
