I realize that I should be thankful, and I am. But after doing this for so long, I couldn't help but ask myself, 'Am I just a machine?'"
  She continued, "There were times when I wanted to commit myself to a mental hospital. I started my career at a much younger age than many of my friends, and I have learned early on that I have to continuously smile and behave a certain way in front of people. I had to act youthful like a child sometimes, yet other times I had to act mature like an adult. It was really difficult for me."
