The man manly manliness that is Jon Hamm recently revealed to the UK mag, The Observer that he struggled in the past with chronic depression. If I was male and I looked like Jon Hamm, simply looking in the mirror would be enough to snap me out of any funk but alas, it seems it was a little more complicated than that. Hamm lost his father when he was 20-years-old, which would be devastating enough on its own but coupled with the fact that his mother had already died when Jon was just 10 and yeah, I guess that really fucking sucks.
Jon says he was able to overcome with the help of anti-depressants (cue Tom Cruise rushing to the Mad Men set with soapbox in hand in 3..2...) Of anti-depressants Jon says "You can change your brain chemistry enough to think: 'I want to get up in the morning; I don't want to sleep until four in the afternoon. I want to get up and ... go to work and ...' Reset the auto-meter, kick-start the engine!" Tom Cruise would recommend exercise instead of pills but I'm not sure if a few jumping jacks and a spin class are gonna assist in getting over the fact that, you know, your parents are fucking dead. I'd love to see Tommy Boy call Jon Hamm glib to his face. Of course he'd literally have to stand on that soapbox to be face-to-face with Jon since Mr. Hamm is about a foot taller than the elvish Tom (I ain't hatin' I dig short dudes)
In the same article Jon talks about his early days, working as a set dresser on soft core porn films. I'm gonna leave it at that. I need to be alone while images of Jon Hamm and porn penetrate my thoughts. Speaking of penetration, what I wouldn't give to have this man penetrate me.....
