Before he was diagnosed, Chris thought that it was his fame that kept him from connecting with others but after some time he started to realise that it was much deeper than that.
"Any time someone would respond to me in a negative way, I’d think, ‘Whatever, they’re responding to something that has to do with who they think I am'," said Chris.
The comedian also shared that after going to therapy, he registered that a lot of his issues were because of him and not because of others.
"I'm really hard on myself. I need to listen. I need to take chances," he said.
