YouTube Clip of the Week: Chris Rock “Cure for Depression”

by

If you’ve come to this blog, then most likely you are searching for a cure for depression. It would be great if this cure for depression was easily available, made you feel better and natural.
Well, keep on looking.

But laughing at yourself can certainly help lighten the load, at least for a few minutes. For some of us, a few minutes is more than we usually get.

One of my favorite living comedians is Chris Rock. He has the gift of taking very serious issues like depression and making you laugh until you pee. There also are some serious messages underneath, such as the illogic of self-medication. Here, in this classic clip back when he had his own comedy show, he talks to a doctor about depression. It’s far more memorable than most video clips on depression.

WARNING: The clip contains adult content and the f-word. (”A Chris Rock video with adult content and the f-word in it? How rare!”) Enjoy.
