#BillHader was among the handful of #SNL alumni who did not attend the show’s 50th anniversary special #SNL50 earlier this year, and is now sharing that anxiety was responsible for his absence.⁠
⁠
Looking back at his time on SNL, he explains, “I could just in the middle of a thing go, like, ‘This sucks! I’m gonna go home!’ I’m like, ‘Oh, man, I wish I could [be less anxious]. That’d be great.’”⁠
⁠
Hader talked openly about having anxiety that led to panic attacks during his time on the sketch comedy series, and he spoke out about it further in a 2022 THR cover story. More details at link in bio.
