‘Anxiety is a challenging theme especially for a generation like ours. We are that type of people who work a lot with deadlines. We are that type of people who often are under time pressure, under social demands. We are people who – at least from my perspective – fight various battles. Some are individual, other are in groups. Maybe many of you know that soon we will reach 365 days since Romanians are protesting [against the government]. It is a fight which, in my mind, correlates with anxiety.’

‘When I think about anxiety, I think about insecurity. I think about suffocation, I think about muscle contractions, I think about nausea and last but not least, I think about fear.’

‘I realized that the fear that i feel, that panic I have [when I enter the hospital], can be transformed. It can be radically transformed. Meaning that I that its intensity and transform it in something good. If i take that intensity from fear, from anxiety and use it in what I am good at, in my case theatre, I will change something. Firstly for them and as a consequence for me also.’

‘I overcame the fear of disappointing. I overcame the fear of making mistakes. I overcame the fear to come today here, in front of you and talk about my fears. Thank you’

We will soon have English subtitles for this video. So stay tuned :)
