I don’t care if she was doing drugs on the street they could have let her talk to her dying mother that’s something she can never get back.
Exactly. That was her mother.
I agree with you completely, My mother died last August from Cancer and I'm grateful that I got to spend time a lot of time with her ..Those moments you get to spend are precious and I couldn't imagine if I didn't get that chance becausee of an addiction. I hate that for her, I hope she gets clean nd heals....
I agree!
@@MaraLeeT well said. My heart breaks for her and the loss her and her Mom missed💔💔💔
Exactly, I firmly believe that as well! Those important moments she can never get back! So very sad...it makes my heart break for her!
she was literally THAT girl in the 90s. literally was one of the most beautiful black girls on tv then
Other tv shows the same as this has had the effect on other actresses and actors. What do you think it could be?
@@georginajovanovic i assume that kid stars parents, in those days treated acting for kids like a sport. The kids would probably have so much pressure from their parents to out perform, maybe even crew and media pressure as well. Most kids I think get into acting and never get to be themselves again so it could cause an identity crisis.
I’m from South Africa and I’m agreeing with you.
@@sheilan6959 Her parents didn't want her to act. They knew she had mental health issues, and were concerned that the industry would eat her alive. I worked at Spelman during the very brief time she was there. Her mother died trying to help here daughter.
Still is she's a GEM!!!✨💝
I went to Spelman with her and she was beautiful inside and out.. life happens to all of us. Like most who struggle like this, she is a survior.. at the end of the day, we are glad that she is alive and well. we are glad she is still here.. We are keeping you uplifted in prayer ! Girl, we are proud of you !
Miss Miss, God bless you for speaking words of healing and encouragement.♥️🙏🏾
Amen! God still has purpose for her and I pray she's able to walk in it. ❤
What was she like? Did she act anything like she does today? And are you still in ATL cause that’s where she is
Wow
Amen
Her skin is beautiful without makeup. She’s aged so well.
Aged well despite her being on drugs
Yes, it looks really good for someone who had used drugs. Most people look super rough when they do that.
@@MsLotusBlooms my exact thoughts. She’s model level gorgeous.
Melanin is amazing
If she was healthier, I think she would look better.
She's naturally gorgeous
You're beautiful too ☺
Maia eyes this whole episode….😢🥺 the pain is so visible. May she and her daughter be protected on the rest of their journey here on earth ❤️
Plus she was *HIGHLY MEDICATED* on her bipolar medication. So sad,she was the same way when I saw her like 5yrs ago here in Atlanta after this with missing teeth . BTW she was very articulate and smart ,when we converse. I was FLABBERGASTED THAT IT WAS HER 😔
She's still beautiful even without makeup
That's right ❤
But what do you mean without makeup ? I see foundations applied, eyelashes etc
Being bipolar, I can understand, see and feel a portion of Maia’s pain. The medication numbs you, your thoughts and emotions. I could tell just by looking into her face how hard it was to even cry; her response almost sound robotic. This episode touched me and was very personal. I pray hearts are able to mend for her, her Father and her beautiful little girl.
Hey mama... I'm praying for you... The truth of the matter is that I'm scared I may have bipolar disorder and I'm scared to get diagnosed because it will make it real for me... My behavior does not make sense. But I will be praying for you mama...
@@tracym1989 please go get help. Once you make it real you can attack it! My friend denied it for years and she finally faced it and now she is one of the most loving stable person I know. There is nothing wrong with you, you just need a little extra help ❤️we all do.
@@olaines9154 this is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me... Ok I'll do it I promise... I need yall to help me by holding me accountable... I'll go get checked and I'll post an update... I promise🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. I love u all
@@tracym1989 you got this! There is nothing wrong with living a better life with the help of medication. I take medication for my anxiety and I’m so thankful I have the help when I can’t contain my own emotions
Yes you hit it right on the nail. Meds take your emotions away. You can see something heartbreaking & almost shrug your shoulders at it knowing you'd usually be in tears.
I have never seen so much pain reflecting in someone’s eyes like this woman. Omg, I’m tearing up looking into her eyes. I hope she gets better, she deserves so much better
Yessss 🥺 she’s need God Jesus
This is new?
Yes, the pain is all in her eyes. This is so sad, my heart genuinely goes out to her. I pray God heals her mind,heart and spirit. Regardless of all her short comings and mistakes she has made, she is still a beautiful woman inside and out❤️ Nothing is to hard for God
She so nice humble
And she so Beautiful and humble! # $TOPTHEABUSEOFYOUNGBEAUTYS
very brave for Maia to confront her issues head on. Hoping for her full recovery and healing.
She was absolutely sweet funny and beautiful actress
@@jmilli0479 This aired a decade ago. This isn't new.
@@sherriebumbray1748 Ok and I commented relating to her past. I didn’t say anything about how she looks or if she’s acting in 2021/2022
Her eyes tell so much 😔. She crosses my mind often. I really loved watching her growing up. I’m definitely going to keep her in prayer.
I LOVED THE END QUOTE “Meet ppl where they are and not hold them hostage to the they been”
❤
Watching her fall is incredibly sad. She is battling some demons that none of us know of. In her defense, I think Iylanla was a little biased and not very empathetic because she was friends with her mother. Maia stated several times that it was the words of her mother that harmed her. We have to stop looking at the fact that her mom was famous and understand what went on behind closed doors and was spoken to her. Words are like knives. It clearly is a wound to her soul. I wish Iyanla would have delved more into that.
I agree! And I think she didn’t take into account that once the drugs have you it’s not easy to just not be high and be present! Bipolar is hard to live with and mix that with drugs aswell it’s not easy. It’s not always been understood in the black community as much but people have had to deal with it the best way they can. I love some of her episodes but some I do agree she can be biased in how she sees people. She needs to be a bit more empathetic to people and understand certain things are not based on choices they made willingly.
I agree!
💯
Omg you said all of this perfectly. I agree 💯 percent.
Yes I've always liked Iyanla but the way she handled Mia was not up to par, it was as though.....a part of her judged her. To me she was so busy trying to make her take the blame she never got to the root of her pain, no she didn't help this woman the way she usually helps the wounded, and that was sad to watch 💔
That bone structure she’s still stunning. I pray for her peace.
Before the drugs she was definitely on the right track to become big
Yes! It's so sad. I used to watch In The House as a teen just for HER and not LL and I'm a girl!
Iyanla doesn’t sugarcoat nothing and I love it ❤️
I hate it, I hope she doesn’t relapse 😡too insensitive.
@@Greatful0374I agree. I think she's too aggressive. Sometimes, we accept responsibility for everything that happened to us, and although accountability is extremely important, some things we didn't deserve to happen to us. It's not ALL our fault. We deserve grace as well especially if we were a child when these things were done. I would love an update on this beautiful talented young lady. Praying she is happy, healthy, and safe. ❤
@@CVRenee RIGHT! Positive toxicity be like ‘oh you called for this to happen or you met what you manifested’ uhmmm no! A victim is still a victim.
@@Greatful0374 Thank you for saying that. You have no idea what that validation just did. Thank you🙏🏾❣
@@Greatful0374Correct!
This was so heartbreaking even thought this is old but my heart cried for her! Lord, I don't know where she is now but I pray that you keep her covered under your blood and a hedge of protection around her! You speak to her ear gates and heart and heal her hurt and pain and turn it into joy and peace! I intercede on her behalf that she shall be saved! She is still your daughter and needs YOU! Place somebody in her path way to see her for who you made her to be and give her the help she needs to live a beautiful joyful life. She shall never return to the broken her but live. She has not been forgotten and is worthy of your love and her self-worth AMEN!
I stand in agreement with this prayer.
@@ViolaLabi AMEN 🙏
Amen!
In the mighty name of Jesus! Nothing but the blood of Jesus🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Amen
She is literally the prettiest chocolate beauty of the 90s. That smile, how she was popping it in seventeen again. She was literally that GIRL
On the brink of an emotional and mental breakdown, it’s a blessing I’ve seen this today. If I don’t get myself together mentally and emotionally- I could be her at her age. Im 25 now. 🙏🏿 I could watch Iyanla Vanzant all day.
I'm praying for you, God has you. Prayer changes things.
May the almighty God 🙏 protect you and pull you out right now in Jesus name... Love! light ! and heal!
If you have to watch Iyanla every single day to lift you up and keep you from falling, you do exactly that. What you said touched my heart and soul. I will pray for you even not knowing you. Go and find someone to talk to who isn't bias and can be objective. Do not bury your pain. Let it out and let it go! Find a quiet spot in your house and cry as hard as you have to or need to until you feel better no matter how long it takes. Meditate. Try some yoga to relax your mind. Sending you a big hug. Again, find someone you can trust to share you pain with. There is nothing wrong with talking to a Counselor/Therapist. It doesn't make you any less of a person but it can definitely help you push pass the pain and move forward. It can also be very rewarding. Do not allow the pain and hurt in your heart to control you. You have to control it so it doesn't take you over. The devil is a liar and do not allow him to win. PEACE BE STILL!
I'm in a better space now but have struggle emotional issue my entire life. Keep listening to Iyanla and others like her and you will pull thru, I also never thought I would but I did... You will be in my prayers. Psalms 46:1/Psalms 94:18-19/Revelations 21:4-5 All the best to you
Sending love and blessings ❤️❤️
This made me cry. I grew up watching loving Maia. Mental health affects everyone differently and can arise out of nowhere and throw life out of control
What people fail to realize with bi-polar is something traumatic happens for it to get bad.and people want people with this disorder to take responsibility when in actuality they need to be taking care of.
And with the medication even though it helps be stable. It makes her seem like a robot you can sense her feelings but she can’t even show them. She couldn’t even cry.
Right she said loud and clear that it happened once they took her daughter away its much more to this story of course but obviously the people around her and the baby father play a role as to why she went down a spiral
A word!
My heart is breaking watching how strung out / numb Maia is because of whatever meds they have her own before she came on the show. It's like she's feeling all the emotions and wants to speak but she's trapped and unable to express her emotions because of the medication
she should look into reputable alternative therapists and treatments for bipolar disorders.
@@datrandispatch1545 she should look 👀 into Jesus the only one ☝️ who can save her
@@laamberrobinson1139 just because you have Jesus doesn’t mean you ignore the tools he gives you 😴
@@xclusively_meh6631 i didn’t say ignore the tools he gave us 😫🤣 idk 🤷♀️ what u are talking about sister just give it to Jesus please don’t put words in my mouth 👄 love ❤️ 🙄 and again she still still needs Jesus and the tools he gave us 🥰
@@xclusively_meh6631 and the alternative that u are speaking of are not going to work alone because one ☝️ the meds are not good 😊 two she’s filled with unclean demonic spirits that only the Holy Spirit Jesus can rid her of so unless she seeks him not even counseling , therapy etc. will be enough mere man cannot help us alone we need the Lord and a lot of man made alternatives , treatments are not in alignment with the Lord so yeah just had to add that 😴☺️
2mins in and Im in tears, I hate this for her, I pray she's in a much better place today.
This made me so emotional because you can see the hurt & trauma in her eyes & how much she wants to better herself. How much she wants to regain her life🥺 it’s really hard when you’re alone facing your demons. I pray that today she’s in a better place mentally.
I can believe this was 10 years ago...I pray she has continued on the positive path.
She not.😔 She's in Atlanta in the streets doing drugs. I pray she truly get the help she deserves.
@@niccijanelle8319 that’s so sad, but also very understandable - in the sense that many people who suffer with early childhood trauma struggle throughout life, even after attempting to resolve and address it. I hope she tries to start over again as she looks as though she has the strength
@@melina821and she cant confront her mom. This missing piece
when she smiled at her stepfather, she looked like a little kid it tore me up 😢
Iyanla’s hugs just look like the ones that everyone needs . Once she wraps her arms around it’s like you just melt into tears and into the inner child . I think everyone needs her hugs
this entire episode is beyond relatable… i was diagnosed with bipolar at 18.. and i’m having a hard time taking my medicine and staying on it.. as Maia said it slows you down. and that’s one feeling i hate the most. not taking my medications has caused multiple outbursts and mania episodes.. eventually, ended up in a inpatient facility. it’s really a battle every day… think about Maia a lot bc she’s so relatable.. seen she was recently arrested.. hope she gets well.. 🤍🤍
Hang in there
I as well was diagnosed as bipolar 2 years ago and take medication. When the manic outburst happens, ppl laugh and think you're crazy not knowing that you're having an outer-body experience. I was committed twice and I still struggle even with the meds but I'm still here. Most of the time it's isolating because no one around can relate so it's refreshing to hear other's experiences.
Self medicating isn't the answer.
What people need to understand is there are several types of medications available unlike decades ago. You need to learn coping skills in addition to the meds. Too many times people think you good with just the meds not true. Also, you need to know when to actually take the meds if the meds make you loopy during the day so take them at night and go to bed when you wake up the effects are milder and more manageable. Many people including doctors don't tell you this.
There is growing interest in the investigation of ketogenic diets as a potential therapy for bipolar disorder. The overlapping pharmacotherapies utilized for both bipolar disorder and seizures suggest that a mechanistic overlap may exist between these conditions, with fasting and the ketogenic diet representing the most time-proven therapies for seizure control. Recently, preliminary evidence has begun to emerge supporting a potential role for ketogenic diets in treating bipolar disorder.
Mental health is serious..After the drugs and everything else she's still beautiful as ever🙏🙏🙏
Yes she is
I agree
Yes she's gorgeous ..she defcan get work again..but it may be too much pressure
I am Soo glad she got cleaned up, and is in the process of getting her life back on track. Mental health is real. She was so talented ♥️
Wonder how her daughter is doing
Unfortunately she has relapsed in the more recent years and is now in the Atlanta area. She’s currently homeless and back using. Fans tried to reach out to LL Cool J for him to try and help her, he made an attempt and Maia never came through
Talent isa born gift she won't lose her talent unless she gives up and Maia Campbell is a fighter. There's a fight in her and God is pulling her through by faith.✊🙏
I met her…she’s so sweet yet so broken. Wanted to make sure no one was filming her etc but she’s really down bad. Broke my heart. We had some good conversation
I am so happy someone was able to reach her. Such a beautiful woman who got caught up in a world of evil. And her daughter is gorgeous as well. God bless her!
She’s still so beautiful 😻
She is gorgeous I was just watching in the house yesterday she hasn’t aged at all I’m praying for an amazing comeback for her
She is still absolutely gorgeous
Please Lord Jesus Christ send the Holy spirit into her life. I just want her to be healthy and happy.
Amen!😰💖💎💯
Amen!!!😢 ❤
Although Mai was Iyanla friend. I really think Mai mother did a number on her. A childs upbringing is so delicate and important!
YESS l totally agree
What is Maia 's mothers childhood story or trauma?
Where there is fruit even bitter ones , there is a bitter seed first.
Empathy has to be available for everyone in this story.
Whew… her eyes. So much hurt behind them. I don’t think she was ready for this, but I’m happy that SHE got to share her story. We know media love to call black women angry or crazy. I remember when that video hit the net, they tore her apart. It’s sad to watch because she was that girl in 90s. So MUCH potential. I’m sure she had a lot of Hollywood friends. I could bet money that none of them checked on her.
o
LL cool j reach out to help
You don’t know that. And whether they did or not doesn’t mean it would help. Addiction cannot be stopped by someone else.
She still looks so beautiful and I'm happy she is trying to change! And, hope she is doing well, now. God bless her, we all have challenges to face!
You can see that the medication Maia is taking is has a certain affect on her.
She is soooo beautiful!!! Physically and also mentally I can see she has a good heart. I hope she can heal.
Ilyana is gaslighting her. She clearly said they wouldn't let me talk to her on the phone.
Right
I don't care for the stuff Iyanla does.
I disagree. Iyanla is showing her that there is power in having a different narrative. She said, “they didn’t let me talk to her on the phone.” Yes, they didn’t let her talk to her Mother on the phone AS A RESULT of her behavior while on drugs. If she owns her truth then “what they did” no longer has power over her! She will own what she did heal from it.
Her mother had brain cancer… imagine how confusing it was for her mother trying to talk to her while she’s drugging out & off her meds.
@@shai9256She wouldn't be talking to her. That's the point. That terrible mug shot, was that her? No. That woman in the car "bugging out" was that her? No.
So who would be on the other end of the phone to her mother? Maia or "drug fiend" Maia? Maybe they had allowed phone calls in the beginning and stopped because of something that happened during? Maybe they didn't want to add further heartbreak to her mother's situation.
I totally get the hurt she feels in not being able to speak to her mum though because it ended up being her last opportunity.
She is such a survivor! I'm glad that she is getting better. Hopefully, she is doing much better.
It's too heartbreaking 💔 for me to finish watching. There is so much heartache and pain. I'm praying for her and her daughter. To this day, there are people in ATL that see her on the streets. One woman said she would give her clothing and food whenever she saw her. Maia even told the woman, "You may have seen me on tv." Continue to pray for her yall that she overcomes her demons and gets help 😢🙏🏽 ❤️🙏🏽
That's heartbreaking
Wait she not doing good anymore?
@Frankie Says I think the timeliness suggests this Iyanla episode may predate another video that shows her unwell again. Shame. But not uncommon. the drugs appear to keep them stable but have side effects so patients do not always stay on them.
@@frankiesays2535she was found five months ago strung out again unfortunately :(
Wow what a strong lady. Battling bi polar, facing all of her mistakes and struggling to comes to terms with it. I do hope she's doing better in 2024.
My heart breaks for her. I’m in tears….Please heal and protect her lord. Omg
Two things I noticed that were powerful. That last “thank you” she told her father was so touching i actually felt it.
The hug that iyanla gave her daughter was very much needed. The big bear, head laying in the bosom kinda hug that rocks you back and forth was needed cause that little girl probably hasn’t had a motherly hug like that in a very very long time. And the doctor knew that’s why she hugged her that way.
She still has a beautiful light inside of her. I can't imagine having mental illness and a drug addiction. Drug addiction is hard as hell on it's own. Yes she relapsed but she's still has time to get it right. Prayers up for her. I have full belief she can and will get better.
I was looking in the comments, hoping there'd be an update. I hope and pray she is okay!
Such a beautiful soul. May she be healed. It was a joy seeing her on tv growing up. She is a goddess. Hollywood didn’t deserve her. May she tell her story one day with no shame
I hope she’s doing well she was a great actress and beautiful brown skin woman to be seen on tv for this little brown girl. Her life story has always haunted me and I’ve never allowed myself to listen or learn her full story because the reality of it was and is too scary for me. Meaning how life could change so fast. Praying for her and many others always!!! Godbless 🙏🏾
@Justin Pate That’s so sad to hear. I know personally about bi-polar disorder from family members. It’s such a struggle to see them off the meds but at the same time when they are on them it’s like they are zombies. I pray they develop medicine that balances but also keeps their emotions and personality genuine and humane. Blessings to those struggling with any mental disorder or have family members that continue to battle. 🙏
@Justin Pate yeah so sad she looks really bad with tooth missing and all.
I live in Atlanta and unfortunately she's still out there pretty bad, LL offered to help her financially but she declined🥺
@@UncleDuTheWatchman thwnk you for the encouragement and prayers. We need more individuals like u. Stay blessed 😇 🙌
@@MizzFireRed i know her personally and she only declined bc when she reached out privately for years, she was ignored and dismissed.
I don’t think this was healthy for Maia. You can hear in her voice, she’s very fragile at this point in her life. She needs love, support, and a friend not an intervention right now.
She needs an intervention. Wallowing in self pity or the oast is not it. There is her daughter who needs her to get well and mother her before she is beyond the age if needed it.
We dont want her daughter on this show in 10 years time with Maia having to be in her mother's position, answering for not prioritising her daughter and the things that grew from that.
Praying for her recovery !!! They had her on IG during this pandemic looking crazy at some gas station smh , I really hope she makes a turnaround
She is most likely using again so so sad bless her xx
OMG this brought me to tears especially with her stepfather and daughter. Aww, ... sweet. 🤗 Iyanla is the woman! Really gonna miss her show! 😟
Miss Iyanla always have me ready to bust out crying!
She never looks like what she's been thru ❤️
It shouldn't have matter if she was on drugs in the street or not she should have had the right to talk to her dying mother high or not. Period
Perhaps her mother doesn't want to her from a drug addict while she is dying it isn't all about the addict
I have so much compassion for her. Although this is nearly 10 years ago, thank you Iyanla for this show and your work!
Wow to see her vulnerable and broken I can also see the sweet and kind hearted woman she actually is. I pray her recovery leads her to all the things that she need to stay clean and with her daughter!❤️
Man I just wanna give her a hug. All that pain. It's like seeing someone behind emotional bars just locked away from her own life from being herself. The pain...whew. I don't know what happened but I really hope she gets better.
Maia's beautiful daughter looks so much like her grandmother. 🙏
She is really a good actress. She flips in and out of character flawlessly. Sweet child.
She's 45 now... her daughter is 22... time is flying... praying for all her demons to leave...
This 🙏🏾
Wow
Amen 🙏
I love her, she still has a comeback.
Beautiful.
When she got on her knees to spoke on her mother I genuinely balled. The hurt in her words and the pain behind her eyes is heartbreaking 🤧 I hope she gets better
Iyanla just did to Maia, what she replied to the Step-father to not to do. When Iyanla said(35:32), “I don’t care about the resentment in the future. I care about the sadness now”. You just dismissed her expression as she’s going thru her therapeutic journey. It’s important to her!
Same thing when she told the Father to acknowledge an expressed hurt from her past.
exactly! and obviously her addiction stems from trauma and since she hates her meds it pushes her to “self medicate” more it’s too much tension
Yeah i dont like how Iyana handled her at all.
I didn’t like it either! She understands her mistakes, she truly needs help and support with bipolar not treating her like she can’t and taking everything from her.
@@jekelasmith6854 i don't think she understands her mistakes cause she at times doesn't seem to want to take accountability
This young lady's mother was an outstanding writer. I use to read her last book and would sit on a page, allowing my imagination to take over. As for Maia, she was clearly an actress that demanded the camera. I pray that it will only be movie cameras from now on. I wish her healing and happiness.
Loved her books. Never knew this was her Mom. 🙏🏽
she seems so genuine about her recovery❤i wish her all the best and more success in hollywood
Wow with no makeup she is still beautiful. Bless you on your healing journey
The emotions that poured from me watching this, whew! God bless this family, I hope everyone has been able to maintain peace & a happy life together ❤
This episode made me cry. The acting was real. There’s a fine line for actors between script and reality. Same thing for singers with lyrics. I’ve been there. When the words hit home, it makes for a powerful performance.
This was almost 10 years ago and was so heart wrenching to watch. I wonder how Maia Campbell is doing now? I hope she is doing well. 🙏
She’s so vulnerable. A hard place to be for any. Bless her.
She is still so beautiful. I remember wanting so badly to meet her just because between her, Chilli and Tatyana Ali I never thought I saw someone more beautiful. Just sincere continuing prayers for healing and management of her condition.
Looking at her acting when she was in her 20's had me crying 😢 😭.. just seeing the whole thing made me feel so bad... May God protect her...
She’s still one of the most beautiful women ever!
Sad. We as black women and men go through things like this. Instead of getting help we hide it....because folks are so judgemental. Mental health is very important. I have a close friend who has been diagnosed as a bipolar schizophrenic, her mom has the same issue. The things she goes through really breaks me tf down sometimes, peope treat my friend so fouls and like she's done something wrong, when she didn't.
Thank you for this comment. Beautifully worded
@@destinythomas5537 my friend had to have surgery and stopped taking her Ned's because she couldn't have certain drugs on her system before surgery...those four days without it, resulted in a manic episode she explained to them her situation, that she needed her meds....instead of helping her, theu shoved her into a mental institution and sent her one yar old to her live with my friends dad. In this daitlity, she said they were giving her meds and she didn't even know what they were for, it kept her sleepy and drowsy all the time. She woke up to on of the male nurses with his pants foen, climbing on top of her. And because she was in chicago, had no family there, they assumed nobody would miss her. It reallybroke me, knowing i was a simple four hour driv from her, but becaue of tem keeping her so medicated, she wasnt allowed or couldnt call anyone. I'm so glad she isn't there anymore and is really getting herself back to normal. I just hate that hr baby girl hs t go through it too, her dad is pretty much trying to take her child as his own.
My heart goes out to Maia I hope she finds peace this was filmed almost 10 years ago she’s such a natural actor and so beautiful the demons we battle are always hard to slay prayer’s for Maia
Definitely need a update on her. I hope she's well.
Whew!!! This has me bawling!! Praying for this sweet soul and her precious daughter!! Cover and deliver her Most High!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I can relate all too well with her. I'm also diagnosed bipolar. Society tends to throw you away if you suffer from manic outbursts. They think your crazy or on something heavy not knowing that it relates to the pain of trauma, depression, isolation, self-hate and being silenced. Good ppl are driven to behave this way because they don't want to hurt nobody, but is tired of taking people's $###
She was definitely one of the most beautiful women on TV back in the day. I am glad to see/hear that she is recovering and getting back to who she would like to become... a journey within itself.
I get what Iyanla was trying to do here however Maia’s mental health impacted her decision making. She can’t make the appropriate changes to her life w/o medication and consistently taking it. She would need to understand the importance of taking the medication & actually taking it in order to make progress
easier said than done ! those meds debilitate ur natural essence so after you feel well u tend to stop taking them , speaking from experience
This is traumatizing. I’m happy she is trying to heal and pray she didn’t relapse. Putting myself in her shoes and being that I went through some of the things she went through I would have had a break down or walked out…
Omg I’m crying up a storm right now. Please God bless this family with health, love and happiness❤️. Thank you Dr. Iyanla 🙏🏽. Btw, she was my fav on the show. She is absolutely flawless! God bless everyone involved in her healing. One of my best shows so far.
This really warms my heart to see her take accountability, and get her entire life back on track! xoxoxoxoxo
It's hard trust me mental health is like cancer medication is just management doesn't cure at times trust me
This story is so emotional. She's blessed to have a father who cares for her.
I'm glad she's doing better and she looks great....🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
She's so beautiful
This episode just made me cry because I understand her pain in a way. I wasn't on drugs but I was young, lost and confused searching for a love I never had growing up and it lead me down a hurtful, painful, broken road just like her..... When you are young and never really felt you had true genuine love growing up ...especially from your parents bro you go searching for that love in all the wrong places. I went searching for that love and the road it took me down destroyed me. It took the joy away and left me truly broken. I am healing now and moving on but I am truly damaged to the point I live a very lonely life to myself.... I don't know what happen to this beautiful young lady but I connect with the pain coming from looking in her eyes. I understand her pain, her choices, her mistakes and I just pray she is doing well today..... When your lost in these streets not loving yourself you will be used and abuse by everybody you encounter. These streets will break you and only the strong will survive and pull themselves out.... If you ever see this Mrs. Maia Campbell I just want you to know that you can overcome anything with God. It may take years and you may go up and you may go down... you may fall many times but you MUST survive. It's a lesson in the pain you went through if only you are willing to learn ... Just love yourself and stop searching in the trash for the treasure that is in your heart. Love yourself, your daughter, your family and God and heal from your past in order to grow. Trust me No matter what YOU WILL SURVIVE.... SOMETIMES THE ONLY WAY OUT IS THE WAY THROUGH.... I LEARNED THAT THE HARD WAY AND IT SAVED MY LIFE.....
Thank you OWN for putting the full episode. My Iyanla thank you for your service.
Why do people like to make fame off of someone else's misery. I love Maia and pray to the Lord that she is better. I have always wondered if she ever got her life together. Maia is a beautiful sister and have been battling with some demons. I say a prayer for her every night and ask the Lord to show her the way. She fail off her journey but please show her the way and help her back to her path to a healthy, happy, drug free life and help her and her daughter rekindle a loving mother and daughter relationship.
No one is perfect and we all have fallen short one time or another in our lives. The good news is we can always find our way back if we are determined enough. We can do anything through God who strengthens us!
I don't know you Maia but I have faith and believe in you so strive to move forward in a positive direction and no matter what, never give up my beautiful sister!
Ms. Iyanla my hats off to you for your willingness to help Ms Maia!
Unfortunately it seems she continued to deteriorate later on.
@@Natalia-ns7jf really, dang....I was so hoping she would pull through.
@@Anonymous-pg2lr so was I. Don't know the full details but it appears she stopped taking her medication again.
Beautiful inside and out. This was probably the best episode I've watched being that she's been the most open to help. I love to see you healing sis
'Stay in peace not pieces' 😄 like the conclusion
Many Black parents back then did not believe in celebrity unless you were an athlete. We were pushed to be doctors, lawyers, teachers, etc to be the success story of the family. Being an actor is like child’s play…basically a pipe dream to a lot of Black parents back then.
… 💥Exactly… our folk wanted solid ‘ bread and butter’~ professions.. interesting acting was frowned upon
By the 😒 other group as well..not just Melianated folk.. for years!
But even with great point your making I feel their was something very very sinister going on in the
Parent child relation ship and
Of course hollyweird..

Ashe’
She is much prettier without makeup imo! 💓
I'm so happy Maia was on the show! I remember when she had her breakdown and the videos went viral of her. It was so sad. I've been waiting to hear good news from her, and so happy she's getting the help she needs!! Very talented and beautiful soul 🙏🏿🙌🏾
Same. Beautiful women with a beautiful spirit. Its definitely heart wrenching to have scene that video.. Hollyweird plays a role in these people's downfalls. I'm so happy she is getting help. We can't give up on her nor others like her.
Always thought and still believe she is a beautiful young lady. I thank God for his redemption, love and grace. Will be praying for you beautiful lady!
i hate that Iyanla has to quit doing her show because people threatening her, what a bunch of losers they are for making her quit her job
who is threatening her?
Who where
You mean being critical?
@@hazel8882 haters have sent death threats and stalked her.
Omgggggg really? 🥺
I feel so deeply sorry for her off the rip watching this 🥺 no one heard her no one gave her chance no one addressed HER needs no one gave her the love and support she needed and yearns for even in this whole experiment. it was constantly about her poor choices but her mentally illness mixed with her circumstances took over her. i’m praying to this day she finds a light through all this pain and can be one with her child and a sense of peace 😢❤
I was looking for this episode forever. Thanks to the uploader. You're the real mvp
Seeing her pain and inability to deal with it-- Well, it makes me face my pain vs the thought of the alternative. LORD help us all bring our pain to you instead of self-medicating. LORD, YOU alone are our HEALER!! AMEN!!!
