Sharon Stone confessed in a new interview that she often struggles to overcome her mental health struggles.
“We’re all trying to face our demons, and we’re all acting, so am I,” the “Basic Instinct” star, 66, said on “Turkish Tea Talk with Alex Salmond” on Thursday, “and trying to figure it out. knowing how to keep getting back up, keep helping people even if we let them down and make sure we’re all back together.”
Stone, who works with the World Health Organization, noted that one in 10 people “globally” has “a mental crisis.”
The movie star then shared that she believes people should try to fix themselves instead of just relying on political figures for policies that can help them.
“To try to say, our leaders have to be, well, what leader do you think that’s going to be? It has to start with the individual,” Stone explained.
“You have to stay strong, and when you blow it? Okay, so what? That was two steps ago.”
She reiterated, “You’ve got to get back up, pull yourself together and help whoever you think you’ve bumped into, and keep moving forward, and forgive instantly. Instant forgiveness for yourself.”
Moments later in the discussion with the Turkish news show, Stone became emotional as she talked about how she used her Hollywood platform to stand up for marginalized groups.
In 2013, the “Casino” star became a Nobel Laureate after receiving the Peace Summit Prize for his work on behalf of people with HIV and AIDS.
“All of a sudden, I was like, ‘I’m in the damn right room.’ These are my people,” Stone said of how he felt when he attended a panel on how to create global peace.
Increasingly emotional, she added through tears: “I would stay on the street with these people. I would risk my life for these people. These people take me, I take them.”
The “Total Recall” star concluded: “It took 35 years, but I’m in the right room, and I never told people here in LA that I even won. I didn’t tell anybody because I thought, ‘How can I tell people in the film world that I won a Nobel Prize?’
Stone’s candid interview comes weeks after she made another startling confession about her career.
In March, the “Running Wild” star revealed for the first time the name of the film production company that allegedly pressured her to have sex with a former co-star in an effort to land a better performance.
On Louis Theroux’s podcast, Stone claimed that Robert Evans called her into her office when they were making the 1993 film “Sliver” and told her she “should sleep with Billy Baldwin.”
Now all of a sudden I’m in people’s business, I have to deal with it,” he added in the episode.
Stone shared on “Turkish Tea Talk” that she now spends about 17 hours a day painting and will only return to acting for a “really powerful and meaningful” role.
