Thank u for supporting me and my story. I am so grateful to everyone who left a kind message. I wanted to do this to feel relief of the truth coming out and to help others and let people know they are not alone in this.
Thanks for sharing your story Lia - so glad to hear you're doing better now!!
❤️❤️❤️ sending you so much love and support
Thank you so much for sharing all of this you do not know how much it helps ..really thank you i hope all the best for you in life , you arw so freaking strong and i hope you arw very poroud of yourself. Lastly thank you for being honest and Authentic in a world full of fake
I've always looked up to you, you've always been kind to everyone, love from sweden
Sending you all the love. You are so strong and resilient
Don't worry about being sober for a year. Worry about being sober this minute, this hour, this day. These segments are what make up years, and just as importantly, this moment is not a streak that can be broken, it's just right now. I believe in you.
Beautifully said
Poetic
Very well said
Yes! Four almost five years sober this coming March. There's always a way out, I promise ❤️
How’s she a druggie but gained a ton of weight? Something not adding up 🤔
Lia I am so proud of you. I cant fucking wait to see you thrive in this new year. I love you so much. I’m so so happy to see you healing and glowing. You are a light!!!!! A fucking light. We are so thankful you are still here.
@@skiiii19 wait whaat can you say who?
@@Gozzy0102 lia was dating jc cayln when she was 17 and in the video she said she was in an abusive relationship when she was 17
@@skiiii19 Jc & Lia started dating Feb. 2014. when she was 17, turned 18 in Nov. 2014, until 2016. I’m pretty sure she was talking about someone before Jc.
@@willowweldin245 why are you so sure she’s not talking about jc she specifically said when she was 17 she was dating jc when she was 17 until she was 18 also he was in his 20s dating a 17 year old
@@skiiii19 she’s clearly not talking about jc she stated her and the abuser were still messing around in 2019, jc and lia broke up years ago. please don’t throw around this false narrative, you can ruin someone’s reputation without knowing the facts.
I remember all the “tea” channels talking about you 2-4 years ago, but I was upset that they were missing the whole point - you were hurting and were not okay. I’m so glad you are here and doing better now
you mean you remember watching and adding to the engagement of all of those videos, further boosting them to others? o_o
@@pozkodethYes? Doesn’t mean you support what is in the video. You cannot tell me you have never clicked on those videos at some point out of curiosity. Its normal
You probably don’t remember me Lia, but we worked together on the movie “The Wrestler” and you were the absolute most nice person I’ve ever met. Even tho we only had like 2 maybe 3 scenes together, you ALWAYS welcomed me and one of my favorites was the night shoot we did outside some bar or something and we filmed alllll night. But man it was one of the greatest, mainly because of your energy to the whole cast. You’re awesome. You changed my life. And I’m so happy you are still here with us. 🙏🏻
Wait you were in the Wrestler with Mickey Rourke?
@@hellofaname nah I think he's talking about a film called "The American Wrestler"
What
Oh hi. I remember you. I'm jack Nicholson and we hung out at The Lakers game.
I remember you lmao. What a cringe time.
it’s insane that no one believes that hollywood is a dark dark place. all of these celebrities have the same drug issues and mental breaks because they are ALL abused like this by people behind the scenes. not just lia, not just britney spears, all of them. my heart goes out to you lia💔
I saw your name and immediately thought "this person watched Amber Lynn". Am I wrong?
"No one believes."??? Have you been living under a rock? The dark and damaging Hollywood lifestyle isn't a new concept. Everybody knows this kid.
What are you talking about?Everybody has known for years that’s it’s a crazy place full of rampant degenerates and people preying on young naive girls. The only ones who don’t want to believe that are the young naive girls that want to be famous.
Lia, Lindsay, Britney, Amanda…. Hollywood is scary
Literally eveyebody knows that Hollywood is a dark place
I remember seeing those lives of her & thought it was absolutely heartbreaking. So glad to see her come out on top of all that. I’m sorry for anyone else still struggling with addiction or abusive.
Even though I used to watch the React channel years ago, I hate the Fine Bros, I feel like they kind of rushed some of those kids into fame and exploited them a bit. Lia has great talent but I feel as though she missed out on so much of her childhood that it somehow damaged her a bit. Watching children rushed into becoming celebrities always has bad outcomes, they often become mentally ill and start abusing drugs.
@@Hulkerine100the parents have as much to blame as anyone else. Pushing your kid into the the entertainment world is awful but parents only see dollar signs
How are y’all blaming the fine bros but not their damn parents is BEYOND me.
same
I remember the comments specifically, that everyone had a bad vibe about that producer guy. He was inserting himself into her personal space way too much. it was uncomfortable, and then he caught wind and turned it off.
I KNEW those lives were a cry for help!!! I’m so fucking happy that you are doing better. I’ve watched you since I was a kid and I’m so proud of you
holy shit. i cant even get the words out after watching this. i’m so sorry. i’m so glad you’re here. and i’m so glad your friend charlotte was there for you and taught you how to love life again. god i can’t tell you how glad i am that you’re here. i’m fucking disgusted that those people put their hands on you. i’m so happy for you and charlie. please don’t hesitate to ask any of us for support.
this brought me to tears. I love you so much Lia and am so proud of you. i wish you a wonderful 2023 ❤ I cant wait to hear your new music
tell jc to choke then for doing it to her. hold your friends accountable.
Oh look a dude with a dead channel. Does anyone know him?
@@gurunext and you’re mad because ?
@@mayshe4922 I care because I am YT Ceo, thanks for asking (and assuming that I am mad)
Thank you Ricky, cause you are the only influencer that mentioned her case. We need more of you
“The one thing that saved me was love” She’s right. Punishment won’t change someone. Shame won’t change someone. But love will
this. punishment will not change an addict.
Disagree. Some addicts need a reality check and need their ass beat in order to get it
@@marisahels it suggests they are in control, but addiction isn’t like that
I agree. Addictions are unhealthy coping mechanisms for situations that seem to hard to handle. If anything shame and punishment will cause more stress, make the situation harder and therefore push someone further down.
Absolutely. I hate how my family say “she needs to learn her lesson” I’m thinking they are saying to themselves “so let’s keep her in the dark and leave her alone”.. doesn’t do shit for me. In fact makes it make me even more isolated and lonely. Love and emotional support will help me.
I know a british countryside when I see one! I wish you the best of luck and so much health and happiness Lia.
I thought it was britsh too! I recognise the trees
I remember crying to my fiance watching your lives saying "no one's helping her no one sees she's in danger they just think she's 'gone wild' but no one sees her pain". We all see your pain now and we all see your recovery. We're all proud of you and support you on your journey ❤️
10 MONTHS!!!!! Congratulations, Lia!!! Recovery is seldom a linear process.
This 👍🏿
I’m so sorry for your loss Lia. Thank you for sharing your story with us. I’m so glad your doing better ❤️
We’re so proud of you Lia for overcoming of lot of trauma and battles you had to face through your life. We’re all here for you and wishing and hoping you for the best. 💗💗💗🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
its so terribly heartbreaking seeing someone that was on youtube from a young age with such a sweet and innocent energy having that stripped away from her because of the horrible people around her. i’m so sorry that you had to go through all of that, glad you’re still here and fighting ❤
@@Kurtman88 if you get caught up in the wrong crowd you find yourself turning into someone that you’re not. she was 17 years old and people double her age that engaged in substance abuse had no business bringing her into that lifestyle and taking advantage of her. even producers exploiting her because she wanted to make music. it is disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself for defending the exploitation of a minor.
♡
The parents that exploit their kids need to see this!
disney, hollywood, and youtube kids alike are neglected, if not assaulted, by the adults around them.
That’s the worst thing to witness. How the evils of this world have some children in a chokehold and follows them into their adulthood.
“What’s the bravest thing you’ve ever said?” “Help. Asking for help isn’t giving up. It’s refusing to give up.” Thank you for your story Lia. I wish you all the best.
The boy, the mole, the fox and the horse! A quote that had helped me recently after hearing that. I too wish her all the best.
"Asking for help isn’t giving up. It’s refusing to give up."
This got me. Thank you so much for this.
That quote helped so much. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this quote. I found it exactly when I needed it.
Wtf is this "quote cult" down here... Guys if you don't use quotes in your own context - they are literally useless. If something is helpful or you feel thankful... maybe you should speak up why cuz some people can't figure this stuff out on their own.
im glad you’re here lia. proud of you. we went through alot of similar things.
This was so incredibly brave Lia. Thank you for sharing your story & being so vulnerable with all of us. You are such a beautiful soul & I am so excited to see what the future will bring for you.
This feels like a big sigh of relief I'm so happy she's letting this all out she deserves this I remember the kids and teens react days all the way to now it was soul crushing she deserves comeback and redemption I hope she stays sober and everything. I really hope she can heal properly and put everything behind her 🙏🏾
And I hope that hope is something very helpful to her 😐... I want to see her succeed, I am willing to talk to her and feed her the knowledge about life she needs. But I can't be the only source if she wants to make a "comeback"... She needs people to stop hoping and figure out how they can contribute. (At-least to each other if we can't reach out to her)

🍑 You say you don't like negativity but the way you do it is negative
Yes need, cuz that's how I feel - People need cold hard facts and I wish shove them down their throats because they love ignoring me... At some level of ignorance VIOLENCE IS THE ONLY SOLUTION 💚
@@gurunext Clearly a troll cause I never said anything like that.
Growing up I saw Lia as practically an adult. Today I learned she is only two years older than me. She was made to act like a grown up when she was so young and I really hope she gets the chance to experience innocence again
Yes! Well said
This made me tear up. ❤
Great job for telling your story. Events like that are terrifying and no one deserves to go through that. Glad to see your in a better life now. Stay strong!
I'm sorry for what you went through but you're a beautiful, strong person and an inspiration to many. 💗
I feel so much pride for her. She found a way to escape the toxicity that was trying to kill her, which is not an easy thing to do. I hope she gets the joy in life she deserves and I can't wait to see her thrive. I'm proud of you Lia, _we all are._
Escape toxicity? Maybe for a moment... You can always run from a wolf to a bear. And unfortunately there's nothing she allows us to do but to watch from the sidelines. So you don't need hope my friend you need to sit down and do your homework while you watch this stuff unfold... (Unless you aren't actually willing to help when you're needed)
Lol
@@gurunext what the fuck are you even talking about??
@@zeebird I was promoting my channel - I've heard it's good for your health
My therapist told me a great analogy for achieving goals. She said to imagine two tall ladders, identical in height. The first has three or four rungs, spaced very far apart; the second has dozens of rungs close together. She asked me which is easier to climb?
It’s easier to take lots of little steps towards a goal than trying to take one or two massive ones. Those little rungs add up when you’re climbing, and if you slip it’s easier to get back to where you were. Remember that as you take this journey.
Wishing you so much love and support ❤
my first answer was the one with more rungs and then i thought ‘no, this is that kind of mind trick question’ and change my answer since u can basically jump and get on top faster but with more calculation and momentum. then i read the rest of ur paragraph, guess u shouldnt doubt urself 💀
Omg I really like that analogy!!!!! :DDDDD
@@zorhaaxfr i was like what if there’s so many rungs that you can’t even fit your foot in between them and it is impossible to climb
powerful
Bruh i imagine like super small steps and was about to say the big one is easier 🤡
im so relieved to hear that you are better i hope that it stays that way you deserve the world and more considering the rough journey you had to endure
Lovely to see your progress, Lia! Thank you for sharing your story! May you continue to grow and I wish you happiness!
Like I’ve heard many times in aa “for these 24 hrs I’ll be sober, then tomorrow I’ll drink. Then you will start 24 hrs without again.” Focus on the 24 hrs. You’re not alone there are so many people like you with similar stories. I’m so proud of you for speaking out about what’s gone on in your life. Keep thinking of you and hearing other peoples stories. You are already making beautiful steps.
wise words roach dogg wise words
This is how I got sober! It works - one day, one hour at a time. I’ll have a year next month ❤
From someone who has followed you since Kids React, this breaks my heart to know all this struggle was happening behind the scenes since before we knew and had no idea. I'm so sorry you had to experience addiction and abuse. I've know people who have overcome both and I know you will too. It's amazing that you're here right now, after what you went through and how hard it was for you to survive through those times. It's been hard in recent years to see glimpses into the dark parts of your life without being able to help you, but this video is the first time I've gotten the feeling you're really in a better place. Know there are so many people here who love and support you, and you have us here cheering you on and wishing you the best. Stay sober, and keep getting stronger. Can't wait you see where the future takes you.
Struggle? She took drugs willingly and partied and hoed around, oh boohoo the struggle of being a basic bitch.
How old was she on Kids React?
@@cosmosadorabilis7677 14
God it's all over the internet and other kids from the show made videos of her
You said it perfectly
I am so sorry you had to go through all this. You are extremely strong for surviving everything you went through. Sending love and wishing you the best here, all the way from Brazil.
I am so happy that you’re ok Lia! Be well and I wish you all the best! ❤
10 months is a massive accomplishment. you are endlessly strong and brave and know that you will always have people supporting you
This helped me so much.. I am having a hard time getting 1 month clean
@@stockton3rocks you can do it. it doesn’t matter how many times you fail , or give up , or start again , recovery isn’t an easy or straight forward journey. i believe in you :-)
Crazy how the clouds covered you during the hard parts of the story, and the sun came back out at the end when you spoke about love.
It really seems crazy huh? But those who are in touch experience such wild flow states. Happens to me all the time. Seems the weather and time are all but in sync with me, and the closer I feel in contact with myself and the world, the weirder and more often these sorts of synchronicities seem to happen
that’s a beautiful observation

I'm so proud of you and happy that you are still here with us, wish you the best Lia ❤️
I remember that live where he was trying to kiss her. I’m not even a subscriber and it reached all the way to me. That was something that made me keep coming back to check up on her to see if she way okay. I’m so happy to see this pop up, especially because she looks so healthy now compared to those lives. This was such a beautiful speech and I wish I had someone like this in my life.
Why do I feel like I've seen this comment before am I crazy 😭 is this video actually new?
I'm getting deja vu from this as well
@ruby I’m guessing someone copied my comment? Lol rip. I guess I feel honored haha
❤
@ruby felt
It takes a lot of fucking courage to speak about something like this and you should be proud of yourself. I remember watching you on the react channels and as a kid I remember thinking: I wish I could be friends with her. All i can say is that I hope you have the best people around you because you deserve it, and just know there are a lot of us out there that think the same and would want to be there for you. I wish you the best of luck on this crazy journey. if there was one thing to take from this video is the fact that you’re incredibly strong and that you have proven that you will get through anything no matter how hard. We’re all here for you.
I love hearing your story. The rumors and the very little we were able to see into your life was scary bc we were just concerned for your well being. I'm glad you are in a much better place and feel loved!
Sharing your own story, taking it into your hands is so powerful. I’m in awe, thank you ❤
I remember everyone worrying when the IG lives were viral. I’m so glad you made it out. I watched this whole thing as it was suddenly recommended to me because you were part of my childhood. Best wishes to you.
What happened on the lives?
@@stephanieann6622 she was basically drugged up or drunk and it was really concerning to see :(
@@stephanieann6622 Don’t really wanna go into too much detail here but yes, it was her and a much older guy, might have been the manager she mentioned in the video. He was insisting on kissing & asking if she was live-streaming. She was very intoxicated and went on live probably to protect herself/document. Viewers definitely wanted to help but people also took it the wrong way. There’s probably still videos :(
@@selena311lolthats crazy I literally knew that live meant bad news while watching, didnt know bout all this other stuff she went thru. Alot to process.
I knew that producer was a fucking predator from the live. We all knew. We are so sorry for you Lia, we hope and pray that the future gives you everything you deserve. Lord knows you deserve so much
So proud of you. The strongest people go through the hardest times. You’re amazing and plz remember your past doesn’t define you.
You are insanely strong for making it through the struggle and I'm glad you made it out.
It takes real balls to allow yourself to be this vulnerable. I wish you the very best on the rest of this journey!!
OR she is just trying "new drug" called honesty and if it doesn't work out she will switch to something else... Sometimes it's not courage that makes us make a "good decision" but either someone else forcing us to because we're so broken OR we get a "good decision" after spending thousands of dollars in a slot machine and everyone is cheering you on your "epic win". I don't just wish her the best - I want to help if I can, I kind of NEED to because I call myself YT Ceo
I was 16 when the only guy I’ve dated strangled me 4 times. I had no idea she dealt with domestic violence at young age too. Makes a lot of sense now. I send you healing energy💜
I had no idea her history of domestic abuse was so long and old. There's so much we can't know about a person until they reveal their story to you. I'm sorry you both were treated that way.
Omg totally. I didn’t experience the first abuse until a relationship I had a few years ago. He was financially and emotionally abuse.
So glad you’re still here with us 🤟🏽
How did it feel? You seem like you didn't care that much, since you allowed it to happen 4 times.
@@JovanyCooldude 17
Lia, thank you for your strength and resilience. You are so loved. I'm so happy you're getting back to doing what you love to do, and that you are continuing to heal. Very excited to hear your new music!!
Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so so happy that you’re here. Here’s to a bright future ahead!!
I remember Lia back in the finebros react days. It was sad knowing she was struggling these past years, but this video was relieving to see. I'm happy she is doing better, and praying she continues to find peace.
Her story pop up on my recommendations, glad they did something right and at least she doing okay.
She's still not clean she is still doing speedballs and the H.
Who is she? Just some UA-camr?
@@Bec2855she was every middle school boy’s crush about a decade ago. In the grand scheme, yeah, just some UA-camr, but it really hurt many seeing such a beautiful girl turn into what she did. She started out just one kid of a dozen on a huge react channel.
Look up her name with “Teens React” and you’ll see how she used to be.
i could literally cry in relief. i was dreading the day to hear she had passed on. i'm so so so so happy to see lia on the other side of all of the darkness. it seems so impossible when you're in it sometimes
me too
she has many people who care for her 💞
All the best Lia - thank you for sharing - I am sorry for your struggle, you're the strongest person I've never met!
I’m so happy for you to be able to share your story and for the truth to be out there. It looks beautiful where you’ve moved. Enjoy every moment ❤️
I’m in rehab for the second time literally right now. This is so inspiring and beautiful and honest. Thank you so much.
You got this, baby. Remember; every sober day counts and they all add up. Every sober moment is practice and will help you perfect your sobriety.
You are worthy of feeling whole again. ❤
good luck, you can do it. one day at a time!
you got this my guy!
What rehab are you at lol my phone was taken for months
you've got this !!!
When I was a kid I loved watching you on kids/teens react. I rewatched the episodes a million times. I wanted to be your friend, and be just like you when I grew up. I could tell you were genuinely so kind, and the positive energy you exuded was infectious. When I saw the livestreams it just broke my heart. It was like seeing a childhood friend lose their path. I know its weird because I don’t know u personally, but I felt like I did since u were such a huge part of my childhood. We are all so proud of you Lia. Staying sobers one of the hardest things to do in life and look at you now! You did this, and you will continue to do this. You are so strong, don’t you ever forget that ❤️
Same!!!
For real! To this day I still sometimes say “creeeeeperrrrrr”
I met her on teens react too around 2012. Never followed her but every once in a while I’d go on her page cuz I thought she was so pretty. It broke my heart when I saw all those lives back then cuz I had no idea she was living like that… but I’m so glad she’s recovering now.
you put it perfectly into words
@@brisakruspe Wow that’s awesome! How was she in person?
Thank you for opening up to us. I've been following your story for some time and I remember first seeing you in kids react. I can relate to a lot of your story and I am so sorry you have gone through such pain.
I'm glad to see you've gotten help and moved to a quieter place ❤️ We're all rooting for you
when someone relapses with substance issues, people love to say that you lose all of your progress. not true, in my opinion. you enrich yourself with your sobriety exercises and you will get stronger with your journey. every relapse isn’t rock bottom. you simply get back on the horse. you’re strong, girl. stronger than most. i’m excited to see you flourish. thank you for sharing such a vulnerable side with us. we’re in your corner, lia!
Thank you, this should be said more often. I have to remind of it myself constantly.
love this ❤️🩹🏹
Exactly. That way of thinking gives addicts zero motivation. They mess up once in terms of using and they're made to feel like absolute criminals. As if this is in any way helpful. Harm reduction includes acknowledgung that the journey through and out of addiction cycles isn't a straight line, and doesn't look the same for everybody.
Same and I don't believe in sober sober. Like I smoke weed. And do mushrooms occasionally. But I believe you can be sober from the bad drugs and still do good drugs and you are good.
This is the best comment coming from a 10 year opiate addict.
Watching you on Kids React, following your career and life, seeing the dark path you went down, the cries for help, worrying that no one was there for you - this video was cathartic. In 2014, your music and talent shocked me. I was just blown away by your voice and I recommended your music to everyone I know. Still do. There was a point where I thought I'd see a headline about you overdosing or something terrible happening, and to see you sober and happy and healthy, and still pursuing your passion of music, it's the most beautiful thing in the world. To go through what you've been through when you're still so young and to come out on the other side is just pure strength. I've never been so proud of someone I don't even personally know. Never stop fighting, Lia. One year sober is in your reach❤
couldn't have said it better
"worrying that no one was there for you"
That triggers me because I don't "worry" I know people don't care for each other the way they have to... I am pissed off about it (made videos like "ignorance is bs"). It's really hard to say what is her current state... maybe someone just punched common sense into her and making sure she makes this video... you don't have any idea unless she continues her story. It's not "pure strength" to survive... you need to learn how to stand up for yourself and pick up appropriate skills. Even bad people often want you to "survive" so they can keep leeching.
This explains a lot. I knew something was up. I’m so sorry you went through all of that, Lia. But I’m glad that you’re in a better place and I hope you stay happy. ❤
your friend charlotte is an angel on earth. we need more support and families like hers. A lifetime if recovery, you've got this Lia
Girl you are an absolute inspiration. I struggled with a drug addiction (coke, meth, heroin, Molly, psychedelics, etc) from ages 15-19. Coming off fentanyl was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Listening to this story made me emotional as I’ve gone through a lot of the similar stuff. You are not alone, I am not alone and none of you guys are alone. You are amazing.
EDIT:::: did not expect this much love, you guys are amazing
Fent is no joke! Glad you are still here to tell your story! Stay strong! @8selenagomezfan

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us Lia. I’m proud of you for doing so, and congratulations being 10 months sober. I know many of us (including myself) have been quite worried for you over the past few years and it’s really wonderful to hear that you’re at a good place in your life. I hope that you continue to heal, and to make art that brings you joy and fulfills you. Sending you love and light ❤️
i am so so proud of you and that you're still alive. and ten months is huge!!! so much love to you and this new chapter ❤
Kiddo, you are brave as hell for telling your story without sugar-coating it. And admitting to the whole world that you've struggled is usually the most clear sign that you are truly on your way to a better place. I'm rooting for you.
This was very heartwarming ❤
She’s inspiring!!
Can I just say thank you? You’ve been a person I’ve “known” and “seen” for so many years and thank you so much for everything you’ve done. You owe nobody anything but you gave us a lot more than you know when you didn’t have much to give.
This was incredibly brave of you to do. I wish you all the best things. ❤
I'm glad you're doing better Lia, congratulations for getting the help you most desperately deserved. Best of luck!

literally same, we
The one thing that scares me the most while watching this, is how you always fall in love and they "save you" until things go bad. Moving to England with a boy is just another part of this cycle you are in. Lia please please please, do the work and LOVE YOURSELF. You are the only one that will be there for yourself. I wish you luck.
YUP I said the same thing!! Huge red flag! She needs to heal AWAY from a relationship.
gaining weight is a red flag too. Instead of drugs and alcohol she is turning to food.
I’m sure the psychoanalysis in this comment thread is super helpful 🙄
I am a firm believer no one can save themselves alone ❤️
Gaining weight is actually a sign you are not using anything
Proud of you girl. I’m so sorry to hear this all, but you are strong, a wonderful writer, and a kind soul. You got this.
I’m so glad you’re here and willing enough to tell your story. We love you Lia🤟
Lia, I remember the events that unfolded....all the possible signs of mental health concerns and Substance Abuse...ending up in the wrong environment for it, you are being strong Lia, you are admitting and telling your story, you're a sweetheart and want you to stay strong
This feels like you have been grieving the person you never got to become. I truly believe you are a peaceful soul, I hope you stay sober and learn to love yourself, Lia.
I completely agree. Stay strong Lia❤️
you are amazing. I’ve loved you since day 1 and i’m so glad you are able to share your story. We love you, Lia❤
I’m happy and grateful for this story, this video, and you. I Hope you are well and know you are loved Lia. I have been watching you since time and have been waiting for this moment.
You are incredibly strong Lia! So glad and relieved that you’re still with us! We believe in you! You will hit one year! Thank you for sharing your story. you have all the support in the world from us. Just remember that asking for help is never a sign of weakness. It is a sign of strength.
Damn bro I used to watch u I didn’t expect to see u again
Nope chuck testa... If you ask wrong people for help (MOST PEOPLE including MOST AUTHORITIES are wrong people) You will either be rejected or destroyed. People ask for help all the time and get in trouble for it until they figure out how to solve problems on their own or learn who to truly trust
Leave her alone weird0

It's so crazy hearing this. I'm in ocean beach right now in san diego at a sober living. this is so surreal after all this time of wondering what was really going on with lia, now she comes out with this during this period of my life. this is so inspiring and beautiful, i literally cannot believe my ears.
Gods timing is always perfect
@@bellab.w.1128 can you please not do that, not everyone is religious…
@@bellab.w.1128i sincerely apologize but i have to inform you there’s not some man in the sky controlling everybody’s lives.
I love Ocean & Pacific Beach
i think ppl in these replies should have a little more grace. if she wants to think this is gods timing, then let her think that. not personally religious but i'm a big believer in everything happens for a reason 💜
Wow this is so moving! No one should experience the amount of hardship that you have. Sending love 💕
So much sympathy and love for you. It's so courageous to be vulnerable and open like this and inspiring for someone struggling with depression and substance abuse like I am.
Thank you for telling your story ❤️ and best of luck in your sober journey!
I just left my abusive soon-to-be-ExHusband. You and I will be embarking on this new chapter of our lives at the same time. Sending you love and happiness and light and peace
So proud of you and Lia. Much love and hope on your journey ❤❤❤
That’s so good! Wishing you the absolute best in life
i’m so proud of you. i know how hard that can be
I remember watching a teens react video about bullying and suicide years and years ago. you said "everyone goes through bullying, so don't feel like you're alone", and that one comment you made, made me get help for my mental health. in a way, it saved me. thank you for sharing your story Lia 💗
love you so much and I’m beyond grateful you’re doing okay💘
i’m so proud of you Lia. i’ve been a big fan of you since i saw you on tagged and when i heard your song DNA. i remember being so scared for you throughout this journey and i’m so so proud of you im in recovery too so i resonate strongly with your story. i’m so glad you’re here with us
As someone who has followed you for years , I definitely feel so proud of you. I've been sober two years and some days are still difficult. But anyday you're sober is a good day. You're helping so many people by sharing this story. Thank you. It brought me to tears and I'm just so happy you're okay.
Proud of a druggie, gj
The amount of people choosing different paths this year makes me so proud and is truly inspiring
You deserve SO much!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ We your fans are here for you on this journey! I would say more but the fact you shared with us a part of your journey just made me so emotional. I am so happy that you are in a better place!
Im so proud of you! I also wanted to say congrats on being sober! And im so happy for you that you found someone to love and be with! I hope everything continues to work out for you! 💙 you deserve love and happiness!
What an angel that Charlotte girl must be. Bless her heart. I hope only the best things come her way.
I’m so sorry people on the internet made a spectacle out of your pain and suffering. It was so obvious most of them didn’t actually care, they just liked watching you spiral for their own entertainment. You deserved SO MUCH BETTER. You are so strong and I’m glad to hear you’re in a happy, healthy place. ❤
it takes a lot of courage to come out with such a hard story. im so happy to hear you’re in a better place now, glad to be alive. i admire your strength and will support you 🫶 stay strong Lia you are a precious gem cultivated out of a rough mountain ✨
Congratulations on your sobriety. I’m so happy to hear you’re doing well 🥰
I was there. As a fan, I saw almost every live stream and how much drugs changed you and I remember how concerned everyone was but no one knew how to reach you. Every few months since that live with the producer years ago I always check that you’re alive and okay and posting and I’m so glad you’ve come so far and seem happier and healthier than you have in a while. I’m sorry for the abuse you faced and everything you went through behind closed doors that we had no idea about
You are the sweetest person on this earth, God bless.
@@justaperson4475 thank you 🤍 God bless you too, happy new year
Oh Lia I am bawling over here. I'm old enough to be your Mom but I've been down the path of addiction and I am so damn proud of you for being so persistent in your survival. Because that is what your sobriety is. You're DEMANDING your body and mind and soul to live. Nothing braver or more badass than that. I am so happy for you that you are in a safe place with someone you love and who loves you back. You deserve this and more. All the best for 2023!!

so proud of you and relieved to know that you’re in a better place ❤
Girlie, you are absolutely amazing and so strong. You’ve been through way too much for your age. You are so valued and we care about you. Congrats on 10 months and keep going strong girlie!
Thank you Charlotte and Family from the very bottom of my heart. Thank you for being patient. Thank you for being consistent with the love towards someone who’s clearly struggling to be consistent with the fight. Thank you for not giving up on people who they themselves seems like already gave up. Thank you for treating another’s life, like your own.
Most importantly, thank you cause, “you didn’t need to, but you do”
Being a survivor myself, I can say there’s always two different kind of person at the end of the “survivor’s” spectrum.
ONE ; the type that knowing someone is actually out there believing in them and showing them love unconditionally is the biggest reason why they finally treat their ownself right.
TWO ; the type where they need to lose everyone around them before they’ll realise that they can only rely on their ownself to fight through the struggle and make it through.
ONE is almost all of us. Which is why I hope many more will be like Charlotte and Family. To extend one more day everyday everytime it comes to the point of giving up hope on them. Everytime you feel like you had enough, just give them one more day and have faith.
Because TWO is a rare case. Often time they lost the battle halfway through the journey from being ONE to being TWO.
I am person TWO, and let me tell you this, eventhough I am glad I survived and now become the living proof that yeah we can fight this through, but I wouldn’t wish upon my worse enemy the battle I fought to get here. NOBODY, and I mean it, NOBODY SHOULD WALK PAIN ALONE.
Yes, the lesson learned were invaluable, but only if you succeeded the climb. Many fall halfway thru, no lesson learned, but another life gone. 🥀
Thank you again for all that believe in us. I pray for you the most in life.
This was a beautiful comment, thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you are doing so much better now. Happy New Year!
@@EF-kk3vh Happy New Year! If this can help paint a picture of how things are in my life now compare to then, I would say, it’s day and night. I’m absolutely in the brightest point in my life, (nothing much really) if I were to compare with back then.. ofcourse nowhere as bright as others, but mate, finally being able to actually steer this wheel of life after years of being helpless and not in control is one very strong superpower.
Or simply in other people’s term, I am doing just okay.
Obviously for me, my own perspective, never been better. And I hope you too are doing great and fine .
