00:00 It sounds like you were struggling with a form of depression
00:03 when you were in that phase of your life.
00:05 Did you know that that's what it was?
00:08 - No. - And did you--
00:09 That's impossible. I don't know. I didn't know.
00:11 In hindsight, do you think that's what it was?
00:13 I would like to think so, but how do I know?
00:17 'Cause I don't know the signals.
00:18 Like, I cannot tell you that I was or wasn't.
00:22 I don't know the signals.
00:23 Like, I don't know.
00:26 The chief said to me right now, "I don't know."
00:28 Like, if you give me any other signals...
00:30 Not any other. Let me tell you.
00:33 Anger, this and that.
00:34 Yeah, I was angry, man. Yeah.
00:37 Where you, I'm like...
00:38 But how you've heard people characterize it now
00:41 and describe it now, does that...
00:43 Yeah, it does ring a bell.
00:45 More than a bell, but was it...
00:48 You know, I'm-- Look.
00:50 I'm a human being, so I have feelings.
00:53 Throughout my career and since I was born,
00:56 I must have been in depression.
00:58 Did I know it? No.
00:59 Did I do something about it? Obviously, no.
01:03 But I adapted to a certain way.
01:07 That doesn't mean I'm walking straight.
01:08 But I'm walking.
01:11 Again, the question I asked earlier,
01:13 if I was a fly on the wall in quarantine watching you,
01:16 ooh, what would I have seen?
01:18 Me crying.
01:20 Almost every day for no reason.
01:23 Tears were coming along.
01:25 Why? I don't know.
01:28 But maybe they were waiting for--
01:30 They were there for a very long time.
01:31 I was crying for everything.
01:35 Everything. I'm watching a movie
01:39 that's not even really sad, but I'm crying.
01:43 You know, everything. I don't know if that needed to come out.
01:46 I don't know if...
01:49 You know, it was weird in a good way.
