I was always comfortable with my sexuality.

I think a lot of people are worried about being alone. I completely understand that. I really do. Being alone is terrifying, especially when you've lost people.

Probably the most important thing in terms of just trying to navigate and moving forward into adulthood is staying busy.

I didn't really grow up in the spotlight.

When I embarked on creating 'Shrimp' a couple of years ago, I never could've imagined where this journey would take me or the wonderful people I'd come to know along the way.

Dad was, is, and always will be one of the kindest, most generous, gentlest souls I've ever known, and while there are few things I know for certain right now, one of them is that not just my world but the entire world is forever a little darker, less colorful, and less full of laughter in his absence.

To say the 'Save My Soul' video means a lot to me would be an understatement of stupendous proportions.

Every teenager, I think, thinks it's the end of the world whenever anything happens, and it's not. You'll get through it. Life will be much more interesting and will certainly be broader when you're older.

For those suffering from depression, I know how dark and endless that tunnel can feel. But if happiness seems impossible to find, please hold on to the possibility of hope, faint though it may be.

My family has always been private about our time spent together.

My favorite photos of family are framed in my house, not posted on social media, and they'll remain there.

Social media is really not for conversations. There are people that you can meet and talk to on it, but it was not created for that. People wanted things that were soap boxes, where they could say what they wanted, and they don't have to respond to anyone else.
