‘TBBT’ Stress Made Me Miserable …
Wouldn’t Do It Again For Any Amount of Money

Jim Parsons says his climb to the heights of sitcom fame didn’t leave him in the best mental space … admitting he was “miserable” during some of the biggest moments of his life.
The actor — who is currently starring in the hit Broadway show “Titaníque” — opened up about his trial and tribulations while working on “The Big Bang Theory” in an interview on Jon Dean’s “All Out” podcast … explaining he overworked himself because he felt it’s what the job demanded.
He explained, “I felt that there was so many plates I was supposed to be keeping in the air and that the success and the good things of life that were happening were only due to this overworking … discipline and whatever. Maybe to a degree that was true. I don’t know. I can’t say because that’s how I was.”
While the success of ‘TBBT’ did wonders for Parsons’ career — and reportedly earned him millions of dollars — he now says he wouldn’t do a project again if it made him feel that way … not even for a massive paycheck.
Parsons — who played Sheldon Cooper on 279 episodes of the hit show — adds that he doesn’t think the show would’ve stressed others out in the same way … but it certainly got to him.
