BASIC Instinct star Sharon Stone has admitted having personal demons to deal with in an emotional interview.
About two days ago, Sharon, 66, opened up about her mental struggles with former First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond, 69, on Turkish Tea Talk.

During the nearly 30-minute interview, the actress mentioned how “we shut down the world,” referring to the pandemic.
“You had to be with just you,” Sharon pointed out.
“Now, that was great for people who wanted to learn to bake bread. The whole world wanted to learn to bake bread.”
“I wanted to get back to my painting. But for those people who don’t like who they got to be, one in 10 people on a global level are having a mental problem, mental crisis.”
“We’re all trying to confront our demons and we’re all acting out. Me too,” the Casino star admitted.
“And trying to figure out how to keep getting back up, keep helping people even if we put them down, and make sure we’re all back up, and what do we do?”
“It must start with the individual. You must stand strong. And when you blow it. Okay, so what?” she emphasized.
“You have to get back up, get yourself together, and help whoever you think you bumped around.
“And keep moving forward, and instant forgiveness. Instant forgiveness for yourself,” Sharon concluded.
‘IT TOOK 35 YEARS’
The lengthy conversation then steered to Sharon’s activism efforts.
As the interview continued, Sharon became teary-eyed as the interviewer mentioned she was picked as a Peace Summit Award 2013 Laureate recipient.
In 2013, The Quick and the Dead star was also awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for her HIV charities.
“Suddenly, I was like, ‘I’m in the right goddamn room.'” the 66-year-old star shared.
“These are my people. I would stand in the street with these people. I would risk my life for these people.”
