“I am a smiling depressive.” — Trisha Goddard Quote

I am a smiling depressive.

It is ridiculous that somebody picks up the phone and calls somebody they see on television. Why don't they call somebody in their area? Don't they know about that?

Most of my peers in television seem to be from a different planet. I don't hang out with any of them.

I suppose in London they all drink from the same watering holes.

I know I can get to the stage where I'm drinking a lot. I tend to be rotten and groggy all day and hanging out for the next drink and five o'clock, ping! I have to just stop.

I'm always smiling and happy.

I feel that I don't have to have it all together all the time. I don't have to be this smiling face for the public.

Even though I am smiling, I have some suffering in my heart.

On that court, ain't no such thing as friends and smiling and everything like that.

People see me high-fivin' and smiling on the court, and they don't think that's me. But it is. I just want to go out and be myself.
