Cox was a guest on Scott Feinberg’s podcast this week «Awards Chatter» to talk about his new TV series “Shining Vale”.

In the horror comedy, which is broadcast on the channel Starz and several streaming services, Cox appears in the role of the married mother of two Patricia. In an attempt to recover from a midlife crisis, Patricia and her family move to an old house to start over.

Depression

In the podcast, Cox, best known as Monica in “Friends”, confesses – that she has put a tough time behind her, and that there are some commonalities with her and the character.

– Ok, this is a bit personal, says the actress and says that she went on a rampage after “Cougar Town” put an end to 2015.

Not only was it hard to stop a series she loved so much, but she also went through a breakup.

– It really affected me. Something violent, she explains.

Cox does not mention the person’s name, but for the past ten years she has had an on-and-off relationship with her Snow Patrol-rocker Johnny McDaid (45). The couple is engaged.

– This was a big growth period for me. I went from a deep depression to having to examine myself and my role in what happened. I spent a lot of time on my own maturation, says Cox.

It became necessary to take a break from work. At that time, Cox made an intense effort to hunt for the fountain of youth and “find himself.”

– I tried to escape from age and struggled to realize that I was getting older. I think I probably had a midlife crisis, she says.

Today, Cox regrets a lot and says that aging is something you have to accept.

– You think you have control over it, but you do not. You can work with your own health, but not control aging.

She says that today she is in a completely different place in life and enjoys it.

Cox, also known from the “Scream” movies, has also previously gone public and said that she regrets that she used Botox.

The star received a lot of coverage in the American media for a while due to its then unrecognizable appearance.

– I did not realize it myself until one day I stopped in front of the mirror and thought: “Dirt, I do not look like myself anymore”, Cox said to People i 2018.

The year before, Cox eased the veil in a magazine interview she told about the vicious circle.

– What often happens is that you go to a doctor who says that “you look fantastic, but what would help is a small syringe here and some” fillers “there”. And then you walk out of there and think that you do not look so bad. You also think that no one else will see the difference. But suddenly you have layer upon layer upon layer.

Cox has a 17-year-old daughter from her marriage to an actor David Arquette (50).
