• When you see a struggle that you may be having personally put on a big screen and in a roomful of people, then it makes you feel less crazy or alone, because you're seeing that other people are dealing with it too.

• Crucial to how we feel is being aware of how we are feeling in the moment. The sine qua non of that is to realize that you are being emotional in the first place. The earlier you recognize an emotion, the more choice you will have in dealing with it. In Buddhist terms, it's recognizing the spark before the flame. In Western terms, it's trying to increase the gap between impulse and saying or doing something you might regret later.

• If it's physical pain, you just deal with it the best way you can. But if it's more emotional, I don't know.

And then a certain amount of it, you can use to transform it through art, which is the healthy way of dealing with it, as well.

• Probably because I personally knew at least six or seven people in Ross County who died from overdoses in the last three years.

Neither of those things is true.
