Comedian Michael Mittermeier described the first lockdown as "laughdown". Now even he is apparently running out of humor - for a time, he says he struggled with depressive moods.

The corona crisis also makes the comedian Michael Mittermeier difficult to cope with in his own words.

"Now with the second lockdown I had two days when I was depressed and unresponsive," he told the magazine "Bunte".

“It went so deep that there weren't even tears left.

I was empty. "

But then he recovered, said the cabaret artist from Dorfen in Upper Bavaria.

"I realized: Corona may determine the world, but Corona will not determine my heart."

His wife was also a support to him.

“Gudrun and I work very well together in a crisis.

In our darkest hours we always slipped together «, says Mittermeier.

The 54-year-old and the singer have a daughter together.

Even the first shutdown in the spring was apparently not easy for the comedian.

At that time Mittermeier joked about the "laughdown".

He has never been without an appearance for so long.

“It felt like a good friend had suddenly gone.

Appearances are more than a job for me, they are a part of me, «Mittermeier said in an interview with SPIEGEL.
