For me, it’s just y’know.. very noisy brain, ssh. That’s not quitting, that’s not giving up, that’s not forfeiting. It’s surrendering. When you use the word surrender, you remember that there was a fight going on. There was a fight in my brain, an unnecessary battle that I’m fighting with myself. So just kind of.. ssh.. surrender a little bit and you’ll have a flash of something real nice. And then your brain will quickly try and understand it, and it’ll never be able to and it’ll be this horrible cycle. But you’ll feel it, and you’ll want it again.
I really dig that he talks about this.

One of the reasons I’m so fond of Chris Evans as a person without actually knowing him is that he does talk about this – and in some ways that he experiences it. It makes him seem a little more human than a lot of stars, because he has these experiences and he’s upfront about them. And (at least hopefully) he’s given other people permission to be upfront about them too – I can’t imagine RDJ would talk about that if he hadn’t cleared it with Evans beforehand.
I think it was David Duchovny back in the 90s who gave an interview about how he doesn’t like to talk about his personal life because he feels there’s a finite amount you can give away before there’s nothing left, and in some ways I think that’s true. But I also think that this specific kind of thing, if you give it away, gains you more in the long run. Not just because it helps other people to see that this happens even to famous movie stars but also because it helps to remove the stigma of it, which helps everyone.
So I mean, he may be talking about it for no other reason than that it’s therapeutic for him, but he’s doing good work for people who feel the same way but thought they were alone, or that it wasn’t something that could be talked about.

how to make a wall sign to properly convey the real you
buy one of these stupid “laugh” signs from your local crafting store. feel embarrassed as you do so.
retrieve your favourite shade of glitter paint from your collection. i chose red.
now comes the cathartic part: snap that sign in half where the a and u meet. doesn’t matter if it’s not neat, because it’s not like you care
discard the “la”, or keep it if you’re odd
paint the other piece thoroughly if you want it to look good, or if you’ve given up trying, just slap it on. or don’t paint it at all.
hang it proudly on your wall so people know you just don’t give a fuck any more.
makes a perfect gift for yourself or the people in your life who are sick of the world’s shit.
