Jennette McCurdy is still healing from the trauma of being a child actor.

The now-retired actress played comedic roles in Nickelodeon's iCarly and Sam & Cat, but when she thinks of her experiences on those sets, all she feels is anger. "My whole childhood and adolescence were very exploited," she told the New York Times Aug. 4. "There were cases where people had the best intentions and maybe didn't know what they were doing. And also cases where they did—they knew exactly what they were doing."
