Lena Headey Quotes

If you don't think your anxiety, depression, sadness and stress impact your physical health, think again. All of these emotions trigger chemical reactions in your body, which can lead to inflammation and a weakened immune system. Learn how to cope, sweet friend. There will always be dark days.
Lena Heady is a very talented actress who became worldwide famous after the role of Cersei Lannister in the TV series Game of Thrones. She may play the role of queen Cersei, a ruthless woman who will destroy anyone in her path, but in real life she's a woman with many emotional and mental burdens. Like every other human being.
"I think some people's brains are just wired that way if you're a thinker. People who never get anxious always amaze me. The world could be breaking up and they're saying, ‘Everything's fine!'"
She opened up about her battle with mental health problems, like anxiety and depression. Since the age of 15, she suffered from waves of clinical depression, but she managed to cope with those periods without medication. Until she had her son. in 2010 she gave birth to her first child , and soon after she was diagnosed with postpartum depression. So she finally understood why in the early days of the show GOT, the actress was in a big mental pain and didn't know the reason behind it. She sought treatment which helped, but that was a really hard period of her life, having to manage depression and her role as Cersei Lannister in Game of Thrones.

Here is how Lena Headey fights depression and anxiety:
"There are certain things that are cool to talk about and there are certain things that nobody really wants to talk about, I just feel, if you don't share and you don't connect, then you're just causing more isolation and that's a really bad thing for all of us."
"I think I've learned as I've got older just to sit with it a bit more, like anything that's uncomfortable." 
"Anxiety is a beast," she wrote on Twitter. "You have to talk to beasts. Release them back into the wild. Easier said than done, I know, but still. Good to practice."

Tips for fighting depression:
1. Wake up at the same time every day.
2. Don't snooze your alarm
3. Start Exercising!

Fighting depression is not easy. If you're trying to beat depression on your own, or even trough help with a therapist.. one thing is for sure.. never stop fighting. step by step. You're far more capable than you think.
"If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward."

Lena Headey Quotes

List of Top 70 Lena Headey Quotes

1. I have an internal protectiveness where it's like, if it comes to just me, as frightened as I am of losing someone I love or things going sour or simply being alone, there is a dark place in my brain where I'm like, It could happen and I'm okay, I'm prepared. Lena Headey 
2. Love Alone Me I Am It's amazing the things that you cry at. I cry when I smell my son's hair in the morning. We have a moment of peace and I'll be like, 'Ahhhh! 
3. How can you love this much?' Lena Headey Love Morning Moment Son You couldn't get less royal than me. Lena Headey 
4. Me You Royal Than I'm small but quite tough. When incensed, I can swing a punch. Lena Headey 
5. Swing Tough Small I Can Getting older and having kids, you learn how to become less serious about it all. Lena Headey 
6. You Getting Older Serious Learn There is something in the act of having tattoos done that I love. It can be quite addictive. I've got a few on my back because my friend is an artist, and a few on my arms. Every time I pass a tattoo parlour, I think, 'Maybe just a tiny one.' Lena Headey 
7. Love Time Think Friend It's a feeling without a lid, of what you would do, physically, verbally, to protect the one thing that is your greatest love. Lena Headey 
8. Love You Feeling Your 'Lost Boys' is one of my all-time faves. I just thought it would be great to be a vampire. I remember this movie called 'Once Bitten,' which is about an '80s sort of power girl who became a vampire and was really, like, sexy. Hair like she was from 'Dallas,' shoulder pads, big earrings. Lena Headey 
9. Sexy Girl Hair Power There's nothing more exciting for an actor than a chance to lose, to be someone who has lost - especially if it's someone who starts off with a veneer of control. To be broken is wonderful. Lena Headey  
10. You Think Feel Purpose People who never get anxious always amaze me. The world could be breaking up, and they're saying, 'Everything's fine!' Lena Headey 
11. Me People World Never Having the tattoo itself is not really for the end result for me. I like having them done. Lena Headey

13. Politics Rich Would I do what I do; I can't control who thinks what. Lena Headey 
14. Control Who Thinks I hate being looked at. Can't stand it. I know, I know - I picked the wrong career. I should have been a doctor. If you play certain parts you have this nice face painted on you, and then you have feel as if you have a responsibility to this idea of being beautiful. I hate that about our business. Lena Headey 
15. Beautiful Business Face Doctor There's a perceived inverse relation between looks and talent. Look at Charlize Theron - she made herself ugly for 'Monster' and suddenly everyone said 'she's a genius.' It shouldn't be like that. Lena Headey 
16. Talent Look Ugly Genius With fantasy and sci-fi, it's based in a real fandom. You're presenting to experts, and their source material is really important to them. They'll come up and ask: 'so when you turned your head slightly in that scene, what were you thinking?' Lena Headey 
17. You Thinking Your Important I'm 40 next year and I'm very well aware that where I am now, it becomes a bit of a wilderness for actresses. Lena Headey 
18. I Am Wilderness Now Year I've never directed before, so I need to make sure that people know that I can. The movie that I've written, 'The Sophisticates,' is a... small ensemble comedy and I hope it's charming and funny. Lena Headey 
19. Funny Hope People Small Since being quite young, I've had a very strong sense of independence and survival. As a child, I was on my own two feet emotionally. Lena Headey 
20. Independence Strong Child Feet Nothing I do is by design. It's always the result of a happy accident. I didn't have a career plan. It has just become the way it is. It's all good fun. Lena Headey 
21. Good Happy Result Fun I love being physical, but I am extreme either way. I can be superfit. And then I can be really lazy and ignore everything. Lena Headey 
22. Love I Am Ignore Way I am very much a seat-of-the-pants actor. I will prepare when I have to. But I like being unprepared. Lena Headey 
23. I Am Will Like Being I'm sort of like a T. rex in the world of female actresses. Every time a job is finished, I look at my car and think, 'Could I live in it?' Lena Headey 
24. Car Time World Look Does our culture have a need for violence? I don't know. I guess it's a personal thing. Lena Headey 
25. Culture Know Violence Need I think I cry when I'm angry. I let it go that way. Lena Headey 
26. Angry Think Cry Way Sometimes it's a bizarre, fairly cold, and horrifying thing to be a parent. Lena Headey 
27. Parent Sometimes Cold Thing I look at someone like Kathryn Bigelow, and I have so much admiration. She's playing in the boy's sandpit, and winning. Lena Headey 
28. Look Boy Winning Someone I've got quite a big gay following. I played a lesbian prostitute in the TV series 'Band Of Gold' but I think my following really grew when I played one in the film 'Imagine Me & You,' with Piper Perabo. Lena Headey 
29. Me You Think Gay As a teenager I was clinically depressed. Although I had lots of friends, I found those years very difficult. Lena Headey 
30. Friends Difficult Years Found Getting the role in '300' saved me. I'd been out of work for 11 months after 'The Brothers Grimm.' Once the film came out and didn't do so well, the director Terry Gilliam blamed me for absolutely everything. It was pretty appalling, and I had started to wonder if I'd ever get another job again when I was asked to audition for '300.' Lena Headey 
31. Work Me Job Wonder I was obsessed with vampires when I was 13 or 14. Lena Headey 
32. Vampires Obsessed Shooting guns is not something I would do in my spare time. I really don't understand why Americans can purchase guns so easily and why they use them for sporting purposes. Lena Headey 
33. Time Understand Shooting Why I worked in Tesco's staff canteen because I fancied a boy on the tills. I served him his lunch in a hairnet and tan tights. Not just that, of course - I had a lovely white onesie. Lena Headey 
34. Lunch Boy White Tan That scene in 'The Purge' where my kids, Mary's kids, are in danger was really crazy for me, because I suddenly... I have my methods as an actor, so I went to the place of 'If somebody came near my children, with bad intent?' Lena Headey 
35. Me Children Crazy Place I've said from day one that I've got no problem with nudity. I've done it throughout my career. Lena Headey 
36. Day Problem Career Done I could quite happily run a florist or a bake shop. Lena Headey 
37. Run Quite Could Shop Cersei in 'Game of Thrones' is quite solid and stiff. Lena Headey

39. You Character Thought Always I was never one of the cool kids who read '2000 AD.' Lena Headey 
40. Cool Never Who Kids 'Dredd' was a weird little out-of-the-blue thing for me. Lena Headey

42. Nothing Talk Just About A lady of a certain age must keep her top on. That's what I feel. Lena Headey 
43. Coffee Drink Lot I carry about eight lip balms: Burt's Bees, Rosebud Salve, Eos. Lena Headey 
44. About Carry Eight Lip I usually bring along a bottle of kombucha, thinking, 'This will be really good for me.' But I never actually drink it. The fermented mushroom-y flavor is too intense for me. Lena Headey 
45. Good Me Thinking Drink I always have scarves handy; they're my indulgence. I buy them at an L.A. shop called Lost & Found. I'll spray one with loads of my Byredo Gypsy Water perfume, put it on and be like, 'Ah, this feels good.' Lena Headey 
46. Good Water Perfume Lost I like to keep my personal life private. Lena Headey 
47. Life Like Personal Personal Life I'd love to do a comedy. Umm, I don't know when that will happen - maybe when I'm, like, 80 or something. But yeah, I'd love to. I'm just waiting for the right person to see my hilarious nature and offer me a comedy. Lena Headey 
48. Nature Love Me Waiting I'd like to play Walter White, but I guess that's been done. Lena Headey 
49. White Done Play Like I'd love to have played Joan of Arc. That would have been amazing. Lena Headey 
50. Love Amazing Been Would There seems to be great roles for women, and it's not necessarily - you don't have to be young women. Suddenly, we're realizing that, generally, women are interesting, and they can also be weird and crazy and mean. Lena Headey 
51. Women You Crazy Great I find 'Chainsaw' to be a very relaxing film. Lena Headey 
52. Find Film Very Relaxing I almost never get recognised in the street. Lena Headey 
53. Street Never Get Almost I don't want to be owned by anyone. Lena Headey 
54. Want Anyone Owned Really, I still just think of myself as a Northerner, ultimately. It's in my DNA. I'll always have those Northern qualities. We can be mischievous. We can be bold. Lena Headey 
55. Myself Think Bold Always I urge everyone - men, boys, women and girls - to join me in standing up for girls' rights with Plan U.K. Lena Headey 
56. Me Women Men Standing I have a scary side of me. Lena Headey 
57. Me Side Scary There's no snobbery in me. Lena Headey 
58. Me Snobbery I think I look slightly like a horse. Hand on heart, I think I'm pretty average. Lena Headey 
59. Heart Look Think Horse Maybe you just don't see your own beauty. Lena Headey 
60. Beauty You Your See I miss that London thing of walking outside and bumping into mates and going, 'Do you want to get a pint?' Lena Headey 
61. You Walking Want London Some 'Terminator' fans are outraged that I'm playing Sarah Connor. They think I'm not muscly enough. To be honest, I'm a little tired of the comparisons to Linda Hamilton. I know she will always be the original Sarah Connor, but when people see what I bring to the role, they will look at her with new eyes. Lena Headey 
62. Eyes People Tired Look One day I can be ecstatically up, and the next, I can feel this real blankness, a deadness almost, which is scary. Lena Headey 
63. Day Feel I Can Real One day I was in school, and the next I was acting opposite Jeremy Irons. That's how quickly it happened. I was in class and then working with Sir Anthony Hopkins. Lena Headey
