My Chemical Romance Singer Battles Depression With 'The Catcher In The Rye'

Rocker Gerard Way suffers from depression on tour, and uses his favorite book to keep him from falling apart. The My Chemical Romance frontman admits he relies on J.D. Salinger novel The Catcher In The Rye to cheer him up when he's feeling lonely and down.

Way says, "I usually bring a copy of Catcher In The Rye around with me on the road and if I get depressed. I have moments in my life where I feel kind of strained and it's a really good book for that because it kind of clears your head."
