H B I’d love a book, but I’d really really love if she would go talk at high schools. I’ve heard her say in the past she’s not necessarily an activist, her comfort is in leading by example, we are all different. But I think she is so damn relatable, she’s also so easy to listen too, she’s never boring, and it helps that she’s beautiful, I think she would totally be able to get some of these kids attention.
@@GabrielTheMagolorMain Christina has done a few videos where she says she will never be able to do any job (even speak) in schools or medical facilities bc of her record.
I haven't been to prison I look for cameras, I always look for the exits, I size everyone up, I always watch my back, I always watch everyone's body language, I check what is my surroundings if anything goes down I know where things are...My habit is from living in dangerous neighbors. I didn't know they were ghettos as a kid. I learned it was after social services said it was. Then I thought ohhhh...that is why none of my friends ever want to come over to spend the night, their parents don't want them to get shot. Makes sense.
My husband has PTSD from his time serving in Iraq and getting blown up. He ALWAYS has to face the door when we are out to eat or anywhere else we have to sit.
Thank you bunches girls!! Its been several years (2006 was when he was there) so things are much better now than back then! Especially now they recognize PTSD at the VA and have so many resources available. So different from when my dad was in Vietnam and they just said get over it lol.
@@lynncrf he goes to group at the VA once a month. He did individual therapy for several years before switching to group. I think its helped a bit, but honestly just time has been most helpful.
hey, Christina, I found your channel two years ago and I was a bad child and your video talking about jail/prison make me change so now I am a all a's student and I am kinda am at the top of my class and i graduate this year and I want to thank you for making me a better person
AMAZING!! Sorry this dumb virus ruined your traditional graduation, but I'm glad you were inspired by Christina && turned things around. Congrats on graduating girl!! 👏💕
This is so accurate lol at first I was kinda like uhhhhh this is so awkward but now I catch myself saying it like I’m singing my favorite tv theme song😂
kath rin it’s actually pretty cringey but catchy hahaha I sometimes catch myself sayin that shit yet at first I couldn’t fucking stand it and fast forwarded the intro 😂💀
Thank you for mentioning in every video not to show hate to anyone. I've watched a lot of your videos and I feel like you encourage healthy conversations but don't tolerate hate. The world needs more of that.
My friend is the same way with cigarettes. He can smoke a pack of 20 when we’re out on the town, and then won’t think about smoking unless offered one. I’m the polar opposite; started smoking socially, and now will get through 50g of tobacco in a week. Don’t smoke people, it’s too expensive to be dependent on nicotine. Take my word for it.
Truuueeee!!!! I definitely slept with my thermal shirt tied around my face until my friend got real creative and started making really cute eye covers like the ones you can buy at the store. They actually had the stretchy strap that went around your head hat she used from bra straps and she used stuffing from the pillows to make them soft and sewed them together. Then she painted them real cute and sold them. They were a huge hit!!! Did I mention how happy your videos make me??!!♥😊♥
I’m always so amazed how creative we can be when put in a situation where you have nothing. & you can make so much stuff from that nothing lol. Humans are amazing sometimes 😂💕
Christina, My grandfather has been in prison since my Dad was 9. All I’ve ever known is visiting him there. Your opening statement- he has said! Finding your channels has sparked me to write him. So, now we are pin pals. I’ve always loved him, but you know, life, and I haven’t made the time. He also found Jesus in prison. He is truly someone I’d come to for advice and would trust to watch my son. Thank you for sharing and using your platform. There are great people that are on the inside, and you’re proof of that. I genuinely look forward to listening to your videos on the way to work. You’re like a real life friend! ♥️
Im in the UK so the jail system is different but I've been inside and I promise you it's the best feeling when you get mail through your door especially when it's unexpected
Unfortunately 2015 Christmas, I spent in a mental hospital. It wasn’t nearly as bad as prison but it has a similar structure. I was able to open a few unwrapped presents on Christmas Day at visitation but I couldn’t keep anything. So one of the nurses had a beauty subscription box and brought in something for all the girls in my group. ( we were all 13-17) She had a little raffle type deal and I got a tiny sample of a blush. All the girls were taking turns in the bathroom, only 1 person is allowed in this big bathroom at a time, and I realized that Christmas that it’s the little things that matter and that you miss when your isolated against your will. I still have that little blush today in my makeup collection, I don’t use it but I don’t think I will ever get rid of it.
Hi mama Christina I had a major anxiety attack last night and am currently still sitting here with pretty bad chest pains in the ER and seeing this video instantly brought over a wave of calm for me
I say it automatically now 🤣 along with her...like on auto lol...by heart🤣💖 I hope she NEVER changes it! It's positive sweet humble inviting to new subs and loyal to past subs. It's got it all and all in her Christina way!👌🌺♦🌺🏆🏆🏆
I have watched a TON of your videos and I have never once thought that you glamorized prison or that type of lifestyle. You warn your audience against poor choices and remind us it is never too late to change our behavior! Thank you for your videos! You’re a great role model and evidence that people can change and what good choices can do for you. 💕😘
I'm late. But thank you christina for your videos. I went to jail for 6 months for my first charge when my son was 2 months old. It changed me so much. Watching your videos makes me glad I straightened my butt up.
I know this was three years ago and probably noone will ever see this, but I had to share anyways. I've never been to prison, but my husband went away for 4 years. He and I got together only a short time after he was released. So, I got to witness a lot of his old prison habits before he finally broke them. After we were married, he took a job working the graveyard shift. So one morning I woke up after he had already came in from work and went to sleep. I roll over and see him with a sock tied around his head like a blindfold and a homemade beanie made from the sleeve of a thermal shirt on his head. When I asked him about it later, he told me that's how he was able to sleep in prison because he couldn't sleep unless it was full darkness. He also told me some of the prisoners would make these beanies because it was so cold in the winter and it was the only thing they had to keep their heads warm. So they even wore them to bed. I thought it was interesting...and amusing... that he wore his old prison beanie to bed rather than just crank up the thermostat. As you know, prison life also causes you to come up with some interesting food concoctions. My husband would put ramen noodles, dehydrated pinto beans, taco sauce (from the little restaurant style packets), chips, and whatever else he had on hand into what he called his "dog bowl". He'd pour water over it, place a folded towel over the bowl and place something heavy on top to weight it down. I'm guessing he did the last part so that all of the water and steam would be absorbed and he would come out with something more the consistency of a casserole rather than soup. Anyways, he still makes occasionally, and he still uses that same "dog bowl" and the same "cooking" method to make it. Honestly, melt a little cheese on top, and it's not half bad. It never tastes the same way twice. So my son and I affectionately call it Chucky's Prison Noodle Surprise. 😄
I discovered your channel and Jessica Kent’s channel maybe a week ago and I can’t stop watching!❤️ I’m a nurse in a county jail and my boyfriend is a CO. It’s nice to see your perspective from the other side.
Love this editing style for you! I can tell how much you've improved all this "RUclips". You are such an inspiration, and are doing the dang thing! So proud and love how comfortable you're becoming behind the camera!
Every morning I drink my coffee and watch ur videos! It’s the best way to start off my day before I gotta take my daughter to school and go to work! Lol
You have turned YOURSELF into a diamond girl. Talk about overcoming! I love you! YOU are inspirational. A testimony to the prison systems ability to rehab people! I am in awe, aghast at what an incredibly AWESOME person you have transformed into!
So many of these habits and other videos you’ve made remind me SO much of my experience at Basic Military Training! I don’t think people realize just how similar the two are, you should do a video about that if you can find someone to interview! Love you! 💚❤️
Hey Kristina, new subscriber here. One of your videos showed up in my feed about a week ago. I started watching your videos about your prison experience out of curiosity, but I clicked the subscribe button because of being interested in you and your journey. My younger sister and I grew up exactly the way you did. I threw myself into church and school as coping mechanisms and became Miss Goody Two Shoes. My little sister's journey was very similar to yours, "throwing hands", etc. She became a Wild Child. She never did hard time but listening to you telling stories and recollections is like listening to her because she was taken from my mom and went into foster care for a while. She and I are both ok now in our own way having undergone our own healing journeys, but thanks for sharing all about you and what you have been through. We are all each other's mothers and children, and love makes the difference.
I have never been to prison but i grew up in the care system in England and many of the same habits apply. I'm now 52 yrs old and i still hold on to some of the habits i picked up along the way.
Prisons should be there for prisoners to be reformed. Education, a merit system etc like in Norway and Finland. If you put a bunch of bad people in the same place, treat them like shit and give them no support they’re not going to change, they’re going to get out and get sent back.
Love you Christina🤗. I was never in prison but I picked up smoking when I was in the Navy , everyone smoked and once I got out I quit. I too was never addicted to cigarettes it was just something to do when you’re stuck on a ship.
I didn’t go to prison but when I was inpatient at an eating disorder and addiction clinic I too picked up smoking. I don’t think your ability to leave cigarettes has to do with your Ed cause I have one too and I’m definitely addicted to them to this day. Love your vids C!
Christina I found you during Astroworld commentary and I knew you were cool but I wasn’t hooked. Now my friend is facing prison time and while thinking about her constantly I dove into your jail videos and I’m now one of your babieszzzz! 🥰 I adore you: your realism, southern charm and beauty! Keep up the great work! Edit: for clarification I subscribed immediately but now I’m watching your videos around the clock! 🥰you are my beauty my lovely, my friend!!
Hey grandma Christina just wanted to let you know I love you, your beautiful, your smart and kind❤ thank you for somehow finding your way to my RUclips feed (a while ago) I'm just so happy I found you!
I have always been scared ohhhh so scared to go prison so I have always kept out of trouble but I have to say that you my dear Christina paint such an incredibly vivid picture of prison life. I find even more now how much I DO NOT ever want to go. I think about things like how awful beyond actual comprehension it would be to go while I am going through my skin care routine at night or things like how I wouldn't have my bed and favorite blankets and worse than that I wouldn't have my animals, friends,kids and FREEDOM!!! Thank you for always being so honest and transparent. Much love to you my lovely.
Christina Randall and Jessica Kent are literally the only 2 ladies from prison rhat I could listen to for hours . I’ve never been to jail or prison so I never thought I’d like listening to these stories but I do. Plus Christina could literally be talking about a paper bag factory and I’d sit here and listen to her talk about it for an hour I absolutely just adore her lol.
Hey! That 10th thing you was talking about , " Don't Trust Anyone " you don't really have to be in prison to remember that rule , that rule works on the outside as well Christina Randall . I always follow that rule 😉. Truly Mr.Cottrell ☺. That was episode called "10 bad habit that I don't do anymore "
Grandma Christina, I love your videos! Just a small piece of advice, not hate, I think you need to clean the inside of the lens of your camera and turn the brightness of your filming lights down, just because the past few videos have been a bit blurry and had a lot of white cast on your beautiful face! Much love xo
I stumbled on The After Prison Show several months ago, which is probably why your channel was recommended to me. I've never been to prison, but my husband's cousin is currently incarcerated. My little brother could have easily been, but he got very lucky. These channels are so important.
I found Christina because of all the prison content because I found it interesting, I love that she’s still doing that even though the channel has grown soooooo much! Mad props to grandma Christina for keeping it real ❤️ xx
Our background is so much alike it's crazy. Salute to us changing our lives! GOD BLESS YOU GIRL. I STILL DON'T LIKE NOBODY BEHIND ME PERIOD. No matter where I'm at
Good morning love ! There are so many habits that you leave with ! One thing I can’t break is always watching my back! I have this feeling always that someone is following me ! I love you mama and happy Thursday!💞💞💞
I only found your channel yesterday but I watched about 10 of your videos last night and I absolutely love you!!! You're so sweet and I think what you're doing is so enlightening and interesting and of really good value to people! Sending love from the UK! XX
Watching your back - that's me as well and I've never been in jail or prison. I grew up in a really rough city so I always had to watch my back. Many years later I'm in a really nice area with low crime in comparison and I still watch my back. It's just something that never goes away
My dad works in corrections and even when we’re at a restaurant, he has to be in the seat with his back to the wall, he won’t sit with his back to a room full of people either. He’s picked up other habits since working in a prison as well, that seem very similar to some of the habits you’d pick up from being an inmate too.
I love these like kind of videos❤️❤️ I’ve been doing a Christina marathon to watch always past videos. True down to earth chats, true crime videos told with that Christina way!’ You are truly awesome, I feel like we are friends
@@baby5968 I heard her reference herself that in one of her earlier videos. I think when she was talking about old cell phones and being around when the dinosaurs were around 🤣. She definitely has kids whenever she uses that line
I’m so glad you are speaking of prison life and prisoners, and you do it with compassion. It’s about time🙏. Love your empathy, your articulacy, humour and compassion. 🙏 👍💕.
When you are first watching because you're living on a another side of planet and for you it's not early in the morning. :) But goooood morning anywayyy
Watching these videos honestly makes me think back to when I was in a psychiatric hospital for a week. I know that might not seem like much to other people out there but it was something that was so other worldly to me. I hated that I couldn't really talk to the other people my age and not really be sure when one would just lose it or turn against me...but at the same time for once in my life everything felt still. I wasnt thinking about who was hanging out with who or how much fun they were having, I was just focused on me and my health. Sometimes isolation is necessary in specific cases for growth and reflection. (The hospitals are kinda similar to being in prison except it's more like a reservation for your mind and well being, not as punishment unless u do bad things) idk just thoughts I had, figured I would share
Girl...I’m like addicted to your videos!!!! Your so beautiful and have such a sweet family! Love your stories!! As I’ve commented on before, I see a lot me of in you! I guess that’s why I love your videos!!!! You are literally the coolest most down to earth mama!! If we were neighbors, girl we would SO BE BFFS!!!! Much love!💗
I love Christina!! She is such an inspiration. I relate too much to her stories- when you are running with the wrong crowd you really are living such a different lifestyle than the regular person and you normalize shit that is not normal at all. So happy to see her come out on the other side- we need more outspoken beautiful souls like Christina who aren't afraid to talk about when life gets dark and you make the wrong choices. I am on my way to being on the other side of an ugly reckless lifestyle and I admire her candor so much! 18 years old and 6mo clean from benzos and street xanax, 3mo clean from amphetamine, and endlessly grateful for this woman's content
I love how "real" she is. I've been watching a lot of her videos for quite some time, and I feel like she's a great friend. Interesting! Does anybody else feel that way, or is it just me that's feeling lonesome lol
Those who want a book off Christina
👇🏽
she has one! check her description
Olivia Ewton omggg really
H B I’d love a book, but I’d really really love if she would go talk at high schools.

Prison: gives criminals cigarettes but not tampons
The part of the government that does this *hates* us.
That’s so werid
Actually I can’t speak for other states but Florida prisons and jails are tobacco free facilities.
Texas gives the biggest bulkiest roughest cardboard off brand Tampax that I have ever seen.
Whut? They don't give you tampons?
I've never been to prison and I look for cameras in places.
Me too! I have no idea why it's just a weird habit!
I mean I do it if I think I wanna steal lmaooooo
Same it’s because I hate being watched and kinda suspicious of things
I worked at a casino, I'm used to being watched. I glance from time to time before adjusting "the girls", that habit I dont think will go away.

So sorry to hear that about your husband. PTSD is hideous. Have any therapies helped him at all?

I have never been to prison but i grew up in the care system in England and many of the same habits apply. I'm now 52 yrs old and i still hold on to some of the habits i picked up along the way.
Being in a south Florida prison with no AC is so cruel to do to the inmates
There is a reason they are in there...prison is not suppose to be comfortable. If it were everyone would want to be in!
@@boatrvme8478 Um, it's still inhumane...
M L go to prison and see if you’d want ac or not lol
Same thing here in Texas. In a tin building.
Prisons should be there for prisoners to be reformed. Education, a merit system etc like in Norway and Finland. If you put a bunch of bad people in the same place, treat them like shit and give them no support they’re not going to change, they’re going to get out and get sent back.
Love you Christina🤗. I was never in prison but I picked up smoking when I was in the Navy , everyone smoked and once I got out I quit. I too was never addicted to cigarettes it was just something to do when you’re stuck on a ship.
I didn’t go to prison but when I was inpatient at an eating disorder and addiction clinic I too picked up smoking. I don’t think your ability to leave cigarettes has to do with your Ed cause I have one too and I’m definitely addicted to them to this day. Love your vids C!
I love that you’re chatty! So casual to just play your videos like a podcast in my car & such! You should totally think about a podcast! ❤️
Christina I found you during Astroworld commentary and I knew you were cool but I wasn’t hooked. Now my friend is facing prison time and while thinking about her constantly I dove into your jail videos and I’m now one of your babieszzzz! 🥰 I adore you: your realism, southern charm and beauty! Keep up the great work! Edit: for clarification I subscribed immediately but now I’m watching your videos around the clock! 🥰you are my beauty my lovely, my friend!!
Christinaaaa I discovered you couple of days ago and I'm stunned! Loads of love from Greece! ❤️❤️❤️
Awww yayyy welcome to the family!
@@christinaarandall I'm one of the babies now! :D
@Christina Randall isn’t yo daddy from Greece? You said that’s why you’re so hairy?

Hey grandma Christina just wanted to let you know I love you, your beautiful, your smart and kind❤ thank you for somehow finding your way to my RUclips feed (a while ago) I'm just so happy I found you!
I love the prison vids nearly as much as I love Christina 🥰😂
I have always been scared ohhhh so scared to go prison so I have always kept out of trouble but I have to say that you my dear Christina paint such an incredibly vivid picture of prison life. I find even more now how much I DO NOT ever want to go.
I think about things like how awful beyond actual comprehension it would be to go while I am going through my skin care routine at night or things like how I wouldn't have my bed and favorite blankets and worse than that I wouldn't have my animals, friends,kids and FREEDOM!!!
Thank you for always being so honest and transparent.
Much love to you my lovely.
Christina Randall and Jessica Kent are literally the only 2 ladies from prison rhat I could listen to for hours . I’ve never been to jail or prison so I never thought I’d like listening to these stories but I do. Plus Christina could literally be talking about a paper bag factory and I’d sit here and listen to her talk about it for an hour I absolutely just adore her lol.
Hey! That 10th thing you was talking about , " Don't Trust Anyone " you don't really have to be in prison to remember that rule , that rule works on the outside as well Christina Randall . I always follow that rule 😉. Truly Mr.Cottrell ☺. That was episode called "10 bad habit that I don't do anymore "
clicked so fast. LOVE YOU CHIRSTINA
Just wanted to say that you are amazing in every way please have a great day!
Christina is one of my favorite people on youtube right now
Watched Jess and now I'm here for some Christina 🖤 I love that y'all upload In the mornings at the same time!
Grandma Christina, I love your videos!
Just a small piece of advice, not hate, I think you need to clean the inside of the lens of your camera and turn the brightness of your filming lights down, just because the past few videos have been a bit blurry and had a lot of white cast on your beautiful face!
Much love xo
Good morning grandma Christina! ❤
I stumbled on The After Prison Show several months ago, which is probably why your channel was recommended to me. I've never been to prison, but my husband's cousin is currently incarcerated. My little brother could have easily been, but he got very lucky. These channels are so important.
Lmao the imaginary fly going down your throat pricelss. You missed your calling in acting
I wanted to let you know how much I enjoy watching you. I do think you are a very honest young woman.
Good morning! Your videos help me get through my morning workout! ❤️
I found Christina because of all the prison content because I found it interesting, I love that she’s still doing that even though the channel has grown soooooo much! Mad props to grandma Christina for keeping it real ❤️ xx
You have the best laugh! It makes me so happy. 🖤🖤
Our background is so much alike it's crazy. Salute to us changing our lives! GOD BLESS YOU GIRL. I STILL DON'T LIKE NOBODY BEHIND ME PERIOD. No matter where I'm at
Still baffled with how much prison is like when I was in the military! 😂
my heart always smiles when you say “y’all are my babies” 🥺
I LOVE this intro!! you’re awesome boo!! keep doing you!!
first thing i do when i wake up is check out your videos bc it’s always up for me when i get up:)
U are such a beautifully enlightened, kind hearted soul, with such an infectious positive personality!! So blessed I came across your channel!!
Never been this early for one of miss christianas videos..... love you ❤ xx
Good morning love ! There are so many habits that you leave with ! One thing I can’t break is always watching my back! I have this feeling always that someone is following me ! I love you mama and happy Thursday!💞💞💞
I got the intro stuck in my head and I do it every time 😊❤️
I love you allllll❤️😍
Me too!!!!
Me too!
Good Morning!!! My girl is about to hit, 400k!!!!! Congratulations beautiful! Love you!! ❤️
I have never been to jail but I look to see where all the cameras are when I’m out and about. And I trust no one.
I only found your channel yesterday but I watched about 10 of your videos last night and I absolutely love you!!! You're so sweet and I think what you're doing is so enlightening and interesting and of really good value to people! Sending love from the UK! XX
Watching your back - that's me as well and I've never been in jail or prison. I grew up in a really rough city so I always had to watch my back. Many years later I'm in a really nice area with low crime in comparison and I still watch my back. It's just something that never goes away
Aw. You replaced your sign on the wall that said “you are enough” 😢 I loved that sign
My dad works in corrections and even when we’re at a restaurant, he has to be in the seat with his back to the wall, he won’t sit with his back to a room full of people either. He’s picked up other habits since working in a prison as well, that seem very similar to some of the habits you’d pick up from being an inmate too.
Nothing beats like being one of Christina’s returning subscriber😌
We get the cutes welcome back💕
Are they smoking inside? I would hate that... I absolutely hate the smell of cigarettes. 🤢🤮
Is it just me but cigarette smokes my fav smell...I don’t smoke tho😂 I’m literally only 14, so if I did...that’ll be weird
Juggy same reminds me of childhood😂
Lol. Unfortunately cigarette smoke is going to be one of the better smells in prison that you're going to smell.
I love these like kind of videos❤️❤️
I’ve been doing a Christina marathon to watch always past videos. True down to earth chats, true crime videos told with that Christina way!’ You are truly awesome, I feel like we are friends
Morning!!!!! 👑👑🖤🖤
Jessica Kent Hey I love your Videos Jess :)
You and Christina taught me so much about life
Thank you ❤️
@@jennifermuller4238 same girl!!
binge watching all your prison stories and i’m living for it
I love Christina 💋💋and have been bing watching her for the past few days
-love from france
Girllllll. I've never been to prison, but I look for cameras too. I know "big brother" is always watching.
Happy Wednesday. Have a great day. ❤️
You have such a beautiful soul 💙
Back to mornings with Christina on the comfyyyy couchhh!!!! Yayyyy!!!☮️💟☪️
Heyyyy grandma Christina ❤️
Curious, why do people call her grandma?
baby5968 because she is like a mother figure!
@@baby5968 I heard her reference herself that in one of her earlier videos. I think when she was talking about old cell phones and being around when the dinosaurs were around 🤣. She definitely has kids whenever she uses that line
thank you for sharing your experiences. you have helped me understand what my sister is dealing with. Bless you for having the courage to do this.
We would put pads in our plastic shoes to give them some cushion.
I’m so glad you are speaking of prison life and prisoners, and you do it with compassion. It’s about time🙏. Love your empathy, your articulacy, humour and compassion. 🙏 👍💕.
When you are first watching because you're living on a another side of planet and for you it's not early in the morning. :) But goooood morning anywayyy
Watching these videos honestly makes me think back to when I was in a psychiatric hospital for a week. I know that might not seem like much to other people out there but it was something that was so other worldly to me. I hated that I couldn't really talk to the other people my age and not really be sure when one would just lose it or turn against me...but at the same time for once in my life everything felt still. I wasnt thinking about who was hanging out with who or how much fun they were having, I was just focused on me and my health. Sometimes isolation is necessary in specific cases for growth and reflection. (The hospitals are kinda similar to being in prison except it's more like a reservation for your mind and well being, not as punishment unless u do bad things) idk just thoughts I had, figured I would share
Good morning my love! It’s coffee time with Christina!..☕️🥂🥰
Yep, 9 am here, kids are in school and mama is drinking coffee in hopes I can get these dishes done🙄
Brittany DeBord Good mornin’, good mornin’, Good mornin’....👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Love our dose of Christina with our daily coffee & chores! 😘
Girl...I’m like addicted to your videos!!!! Your so beautiful and have such a sweet family! Love your stories!! As I’ve commented on before, I see a lot me of in you! I guess that’s why I love your videos!!!! You are literally the coolest most down to earth mama!! If we were neighbors, girl we would SO BE BFFS!!!! Much love!💗
I love you. You’re such a precious soul 💗
I love Christina!! She is such an inspiration. I relate too much to her stories- when you are running with the wrong crowd you really are living such a different lifestyle than the regular person and you normalize shit that is not normal at all. So happy to see her come out on the other side- we need more outspoken beautiful souls like Christina who aren't afraid to talk about when life gets dark and you make the wrong choices. I am on my way to being on the other side of an ugly reckless lifestyle and I admire her candor so much! 18 years old and 6mo clean from benzos and street xanax, 3mo clean from amphetamine, and endlessly grateful for this woman's content
I love how "real" she is. I've been watching a lot of her videos for quite some time, and I feel like she's a great friend. Interesting! Does anybody else feel that way, or is it just me that's feeling lonesome lol
Love the couch talk being back!!!
