Maria Bamford is a comedienne with a mental illness. This is an interview with her. She’s a very funny stand up comedienne.
“Maria Bamford talks about her lifelong battles with OCD, her unwanted thoughts syndrome, bipolar disorder, and the recent hospitalization that probably saved her life.”
She’s great. Right at first I had a hard time getting into the way she speaks, her conversation style, but then I was right in tune with her after awhile.
There is this serious-funny that I often do myself, but I don’t want it to turn in which others laugh AT me. It’s a hard one to reckon with, and I hope maybe she could shed some light on that down the road sometime.
