15. One Of The Longest-Standing Actors In Saturday Night Live Has Schizophrenia
Darrell Hammond is best known for his impressions on Saturday Night Live, perhaps the most famous being that of former president Bill Clinton. He was on the cast from 1995 until 2009, and in 2014, became the show’s announcer.
What is less known about him is his struggle with schizophrenia, along with borderline personality disorder and bipolar. He attributes these illnesses to the severe trauma and abuse that he suffered at the hands of his mother as he was growing up. He has been hospitalized several times, and after coming out with his mental illness in 2011, has been an advocate for other people who have a mental illness.
