Da: “13 reasons Why” dealt with some really sensitive and controversial subjects. did you initially have any misgivings about starring in the show? dd:

Not at all. the topics we deal with are quite heavy, but they’re real. you can’t censor or sugarcoat real life struggles. that’s an insult to the people fighting these issues every day.

i really do. it all starts with communication and ending the stigma around these types of struggles.
