Drugs Controlled My Life

- As a teenager, I was your quintessential party girl found at the nightclub doing drugs & alcohol.
I ran with a crowd that could keep up with me, but eventually, I couldn’t keep up with myself.
I don’t regret those days because I came to realize (later in life) that the alcohol and drugs may have saved my life…
Come find out why... 😳🥲

Just ordered a Holy Spirit Activate iPhone case ... a great reminder daily!!!
I've been wearing your fanny pack and it's very durable!
⚠️ Does Mrs. “Jesus Vibe” approve of the killing of babies in the womb?
Such hypocrisy from the Hollywood “Elite”…
I also grew up without any mentor or person watching over me and made a lot of horrible choices but Christ has been seeking me out all ways
I grew up on your parent's music and became a fan of you when my kids discovered Wilson Phillips. I lost my husband of 47 years a few months ago and I still get weepy in the oddest places. I was in Wal-Mart the other day when a crying fit came over me. Then the intercom started playing "Hold On". I couldn't believe it. It was like having a friend right there encouraging me. Thanks, Chynna!. And may God bless you in your life and ministry!
I just want to say, I'm truly so sorry you lost your precious husband, and 47 years is quite a run, so I have deep compassion for you. I'm happy, "Hold On" came on at just the right moment. God really does work in mysterious ways! God bless you🙏✝️💛
JJ Frank I’m so very sorry for your loss. I lost my husband of 35 years nearly 14 yrs ago. I was 55 & our daughters were 10 & 12 at the time. PLEASE don’t rush yourself through the layers of this profound grief. It can even take years before you feel you’ve gained some equilibrium. The Lord Jesus will take you one step at a time. He weeps with you & comforts you. Those unexpected moments of sorrow are a given. Be gentle with yourself & don’t listen to well-meaning people who want you to “feel better quickly” & try to rush the process. Eventually you’ll be able to think of your husband without the sharp pain you’re feeling now. Praying for you. 🙏
So sorry for the loss of your husband. ❤️🇨🇦
@@lisamariepagliei3945 Thank you so much for the encouraging words.
@@debbiem6406 Thank you so much for the thoughts and advice. ❤
This will hit home with SOOOoooo many young women that see it. They'll know that being clean and sober is possible after abuse.
Thanks for showing it's possible.
But she’s likely not clean and sober if she’s submitting to Fundamentalistic theocracy.
Such a God shot that you spoke about this today. Thank you, I have an adult son who is newly sober but only because he’s in prison. I pray the Lord puts his hand on him so he finds a new direction 🙏🏻❤️
I will pray ur son sees the need for his Redeemer. Many young men & women are willing to listen/make an about face, once they end up in jail. All of a sudden God has their full attention. May this time of crisis serve ans the catapult for him to change direction. 🙏 💝
Keeping you and your son in my prayers 🙏🏻 sending strength and love 💖
Praying for you and your son❤️
So hope he stays sober
❤Hug to you
I bought the Holy Spirit Activate t-shirt in navy blue a few months ago. Anytime I wear the shirt in public, I tend to become more bold in my Christian walk. I feel more confident whenever I say "Say God bless you" or "Peace of Christ". It may sound cheesy but I really feel confident with my shirt. So, let's support California Preachin! 💙 ❤ 🙌🏾✝️
Drugs and alcohol are only done because the person is self-medicating. If one can get to the root of the emotional issue and work on themselves, the substances can stop and self care can start. You've been on the right path a long time. Good job.
My child has been lost in addiction for about 20 years... I tried to "save" her for so many years that I felt like I was slowly dying. I've had to build up a callus wall over my heart in self preservation. All I can do is pray from a distance... I'm thankful that you were able to overcome. These drugs these days are so flipping scary... they are "cut" with stuff that I believe are to intentionally kill. I do Thank God that I was there to get her medical help on two different occasions due to overdose. Please keep my child in your prayers along with me. .💔🙏🙏🙏🙏
Im so sorry for your pain. The anguish of watching a child self destruct is overwhelming and consuming. Praying for the Lord to give you comfort and peace . I know its hard for you every minute.
Your honesty is so beautiful! Thank you Chynna.
Your honesty and humble attitude is going to help so many....love to you Chynna👍🏾
Chynna, I cleaned up my party boy act 36 years ago..It took witnessing the death of two of my friends hit by a driver under the influence to solidify my desire to live healthier, not perfect, healthier. Many of us saw drugs as an "accessory" in 1970's -1980's..something you did, to get you in the mood to party down...blah blah blah Unfortunately many never returned from the party. "..with God all things are possible.." (Matthew 19:26) even recovery from drug addiction! Peace of Christ 🙏🏻❤️
“You can do anything for just one day” - great advice
Some days I took it one hour at a time! Then I was saved and the desire was removed... a miracle since I was on a 14 day cocaine binge and psychotic ... when the power of the Holy Spirit came over me after being prayed over it was truly life altering and I will never forget that day... 2/9/89
I’m sober too - for 11 years been a proud member of AA and it’s 100% God. I try every day to live in God’s will for me. This is one of the reasons I subscribe and watch you. You’re so inspirational and I admire your faith. Thank you for this message.
Thank God for n.a and a.a. those programs get right to the point...give it to God. I think those are God given and God driven programs.
Iv always viewed addiction as a spiritual disease as well as mental emotional and physical..it effects the soul.
Jesus loves addicts. When he reaches addicts it is when they are at rock bottom usually and have no one and nothing else to turn to..and there's the holy spirit still with the addict, never leaving and never forsaking.
Btw, I love how Space Kitty stopped & turned to see if Pokey was following behind. 😍
Love seeing both animals
That garden is beautiful.
Pray for Rose MacGowan. She's gradually starting to see the Light and she's in grave danger by calling out the Clintons and other sociopaths.
Chynna, thank you for sharing difficult stories. Watching you perform in your music videos and in your shows, you have such a light about you that I would’ve never guessed you’d been through such hard times. Thank you for holding on Chynna. Listening to Hold On has gotten me through incredibly dark times. The world would not be the same without that song.
Glad God saved you in every way and protected you!
Chynna, your testimony is inspiring for so many people who think no one understands. Powerful & transparent. Look what God has done!! Glory to Him!
So beautiful. Thank you for the courage to share this! As a therapist, this is something I can share with others!
Chynna, I love the new merchandise....... it’s fantastic! I have always said that no one chooses to be an addict. I truly believe that they are self medicating their depression. Sisters in Christ ❤️✝️
Great testimony Chynna. This would be something to take on the road to help young adults. I was abused when I was 8 yrs old and felt worthless. I didn't get to enjoy my my adult years from 19 to 26 because the shame kept creeping in. I finally gave it to God. It wasn't my fault and now I can cope better. You are such a blessing and you are so valuable to those hurting. Thank you and God bless. Much luv and hugs.
WOW... What an intense journey...THANK YOU for your honesty and Vulnerability👏🏻🙌🏻🧡
God Bless you & I’m sure your story is giving out BEAUTIFUL HOPE🙏🏻
Your confession is honest and genuine. I was moved for sure. I am thankful that both my parents (and sports) helped keep me clean in my teen years. Yet I have teammates and friends who ruined their lives. Glad you shared this. POC always!
Thanks for sharing, God bless you❤️Chynna, I love when your walking and I see your cat & dog following you. So adorable, they do love their mama. 🐾🐾❤️
Hi Chynna. Thank you so much for giving of yourself. This helps those struggling to know there is life after drugs.
Oh Chynna, I can relate. I started guzzling wine and beer at 5 years old to numb the pain. On the outside looking in I had a privileged life but life inside the home was scary and traumatic for a little kid. I started stock piling beer and wine in hidden spots outside because I was afraid of how in the world was I gonna cope without booze to stop the unbearable pain.
WOW Chynna you're giving strength to others and empowering them to put work into overcoming issues and struggles that we all have in life. More power to you. You are very much loved and admired. xx
Chynna! I'm sooo glad that you didn't die....because your a blessing ,God had a plan for you to bring people closer to Jesus!
That really is so scarry and sad for kids, teens or adults to go through that...can't even imagine...thank God He was looking out for you....and waiting for you to come out the other end
God didn’t wait, He kept her alive throughout her drug abuse and pain
You are so courageous and honest. I am a child of the 60’s and 70’s ( more your parents generation) and I lost a few friends to drugs, it was turbulent times. I was so scared to even be around them so I was spared from that. But you turned around and have become an amazing woman with a great family. I commend your efforts, because I know it must have been so hard! I enjoy your videos and your advice. Hold on for one more day is such a profound song! Love it 😊
Chynna, sending you a big hug for sharing this story. You are so transparent & it was such a deliverance for you♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Wow so glad you survived Chynna. I also went through a phase after my mother died I was 26 and had never been a party girl ,but oh boy didn't that change I think for three years the only time was sober was when I was asleep, I was trying to run away from the pain I just couldn't deal with it and during that time met the love of my life and drove him away.and back then there wasn't really any help. These days I look back and think how on earth did I survive that,and your right I think it's all part of God's plan and I wouldn't have my two gorgeous sons. Have a great weekend
The Lord saved me from alcoholism when a I was 31 years old. I can really identify with what you said about there were many times you could have died but you made it through. Same thing with me, wandering the streets drunk in the middle of the night every weekend. I was in some really dangerous situations but miraculously, God always pulled me through. Been sober for 39:years, praise God!
i so so appreciate you sharing this testimony, Chynna. Your honesty will minister to so many people, and the LORD's deliverance in your life is beautiful.
You're an amazingly strong woman, Chynna! That's why we all look up to you! ...& like I 've told you before- you're REAL. You share life stories with us that I'm sure many relate to. Thank You for your beautiful, raw, honest way. Love & Light, always. xx
I can’t believe you went through all this. Never did I think the wholesome young woman singing “Hold On”, “Release Me”, “You’re In Love” could have such a scary drug and alcohol past. Thank God you got out of it.
I’m so sorry you had to go through all that pain, Chynna. The adults that were suppose to protect you were in lots of pain themselves and allowed you to be prey to every predator. I’m sorry if it sounds judgie but it makes me so upset. Every child needs to be protected but that’s the crazy world we live in. Thank God we have a loving father who loves us so much. You’re a sweetheart and I’m definitely going to check out your merch.
I can so relate to numbing the traumas of childhood, Chynna. I should have died from all the drugs in my 20s! God saw us through to the other side, I believe because we had accepted him into our hearts at an early age. And though we had forgotten about him, he never forgot about us. Peace of Christ!
It's so nice finding someone who is at the same point in life I am. I could spend hours talking to you.
God had his hand on you and that’s what kept you going. Jesus never left you. I’m sure someone was praying for your safety.
Chynna, my heart goes out to you, you dear, sweet lady! Thank you for your openness and honesty. God has been watching over you all if these years. I admire your strength and faith. We are so glad you are here with us! We love you! ❤
Beautiful & inspiring vid, Chynna! 👍👍👍 You should be a proud mom that you’ve raised lovely children who haven’t had the probs you had w/drugs & alcohol.
Thank you so much chynna for being so open, as usual , and it is very admirable that you share things like this as a testimony to inspire others. It makes me respect you because i feel like i could NEVER share stuff like that about my life! A lot of it is honestly x-rated so there’s not a lot i can share.😳. lol. But this gives me hope someday i can share my testimony…
Chy, so powerful! Even knowing you for years I never heard this story so detailed. This will help so many people. Also love the new merch!! Love you so much. Peace of Christ!
You are an inspiration! Thanks for sharing!
God bless you, Chynna! That is a wonderful testimony! You are helping many people.
Same I used many drugs in my teen years....grateful to still be here.😇🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing. I'm struggling at the moment, hoping and praying for complete deliverance!
Chynna your transparency is so refreshing. Your awareness of where you were and how far you've done is incredible. Plus that you seem so fun and talented! May check out your store today ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing because I find it hard to relate to relatives who have been addicts.
I wonder if maybe there's just trauma that is unspoken and never talked about.
Chynna you look absolutely gorgeous in this video. Just beaming the beauty today.
Chynna, amazing story, testimony and journey! God is good! Super proud of you! I'm so happy I found your channel.
What a testimony. Thanks Chynna!
That was an amazing 20 minutes -- SO powerful. Bless you. Love you.
I was teary-eyed listening to your testimony! As a secondary teacher, I'm always "watching my students like a hawk" for signs of turmoil. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for your gut honesty !!!
Chynna this is so Brave of You to come out & talk about this & your past life!!I Love You for it!! God Bless You & Your Family!!
Your testimony and story about getting off of drugs and alcohol will help a lot of people. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you for sharing your story. You are witness to the trials and tribulations of drug abuse. God bless you.
I’ve recently found your channel and find your to be so refreshingly honest which is a sadly all too rare occurrence these chaotic days. I also find it so wonderful that almost wherever you walk the pets follow you. They know. They see exactly who you are as a person, they sense your inner vibe and they want to be near you. This is a blessing I feel. I’m catching up with your library of videos now. Thanks. 🙏🏻
You are really an inspiration to so many! Don’t ever doubt that! I think you need to write a book!
God never left you♥️
I can relate to everything you went through. My teen years were so similar. We survived by the grace of God. He loved us when we didn’t love ourselves. ❤️
Gosh Chynna,
A very raw and brutally honest account of your struggles with addiction. You’ve certainly had some close calls 😥
I’m so glad you prevailed and came out well on the other side.
A cautionary tale for all of us.
Love you and Billy by the way ❤️😊🇬🇧
Thank you for sharing. So glad you made it through all of that.
As a woman with over 40 years free from drugs and alcohol, you are speaking the truth when you say 'it saved my life when I was a child".
Amen . I’m 62 and thankful I got my head right back when I was 19 . God bless you hun .
This was so raw and real and truly a blessing to watch.
Chynna this is one of your best videos. It takes such courage to be so honest. You are such a beautiful woman. You make us all want to be better people. Always remain honest, that is your superpower. All my love to you.
People, wait until you see the loads of new merch! Thank you Chynna, my order is in! ❤️
Thanks for sharing Chynna, it works it really does ! I am grateful for 21 yrs. One day at a time.
We have the same story. I'm just about to release my memoir called Fame to Fur...it's my journey from the lights of Hollywood to the heights of giving back. Thank you for sharing your story. I think it's important because it helps others! xo
Fortunately for all of us
I can,t help but believe that you have had the most wonderful guardian angel.
Also obviously you’re a beautiful person, your honesty makes you even more so .
💚🙏💜
Your fearless courage always manifests in your compelling personal stories. You exude grace when you show empathy. Your faith is such a bright star of inspiration. Love the merchandise you are creating. How well I understand concept of "numbing awareness of agony".
Hi Chynna Drugs are like walking around carrying a lead crutch. There is an illusion that they help you get through life but drugs did not help you get through your childhood. You got through your difficult childhood despite taking drugs, not because of them. Congratulations on escaping that very nasty trap.
Thank you for sharing this part of your story Chynna. I appreciate your authenticity in the struggles of addiction. Love the new merch and continuing to pray for God's provision for all of us.
I believe God wants to use you to help others. I appreciate you being so open and honest. I'm depressed now. Lost an aunt 2 weeks ago and a friend of 35 years earlier this week.
Such cool clothing!!! Absolutely Beautiful!!! Love the one liners too!!! May God continue to Bless You & family Always!!! 🙏❤🙏❤ 🙂
God was with you all along , and he saved you, and I'm so glad you came thru it all , and now live your life spreading the good word of gods love for us all, your awesome🌻👍. GB. You.💞🙏. Peace of Christ.🙏.
So true...numb the pain because we don't have the tools to cope. Jesus can teach us wisdom and give us those tools. 😘
@@annagardner7252 Amen to that, I agree, god bless you.💕🙏🏻.
Hello CP. Thank You for telling your story. I had a very difficult childhood. I did not start drinking till I was 19. I was sold from the beginning. I loved the fun I had with it but in my late 20's it started to get out of hand. I was putting myself in difficult situations. I was slowly becoming a functioning alcoholic. I was hiding it and drinking alone. I hurt relationships and it wasn't until the age of 39 that I woke up from the worst hangover that I said I was done. I went on medication for depression and never looked back. I am 52 and two time cancer survivor. It made me stronger.
I had a very very similar childhood. My parents were fun and I know I was drinking at weddings etc by age 7. I also smoked as a child. I was seeing a famous drummer 18 years older than myself when I was 16 (He had a boat in Marina Del Rey). I related to this sooooo much!!! I too was sneaking into clubs at age 14. I was done partying around the same time kids my age were starting. We didn't have rehab then. I too received a miracle from Jesus and switched my addiction to exercise, cleaning,, whatever yet this was so relatable and honest. THANK YOU!! God Bless you Chynna. I think for those who cannot afford rehab or cannot make it to a meeting it is important for people to know Jesus can remove the cravings. I honestly believe fewer people would be addicted if they knew how to stop. Thank you for sharing "One day at a time" also known as "Hold On For One More Day" You are a blessing.!!!!!! Again thank you and God Bless You!!
I love your story. Hold On is one of my fave songs...I have the tape🤣😱. I love knowing the inspiration for it. God bless you Chynna!💗
So glad you're still here with us, Chynna! By the way, I was in a Pepsi commercial, too, when I was in high school! Peace of Christ ❤✌
I won't you to know that your videos help me overcome my addiction I fight every day thank you
Thank you for sharing your story. I like to learn from other people's experiences. I learned to stay away from drugs from what I have learned and seen. I'm glad you were able to survive those years and learned how to better yourself and bring up your children in a healthier environment. Keep on your positive path!! We all have a purpose, we just have to figure out what it is.
Thank you for sharing such a deeply personal story❤️
Thank you for your candor and sharing your story. I’m sure it will speak to many people.
Thank you for having the courage to share this with the world. I am glad that you are still here, and I believe that God is using you to help others.
Thank you Chynna for beeing so open, i stoped 2007 with benzodiazepin after 10 years addiction, and now i stop drinking alcohol since 6 months.
SOMEONE POINTED OUT THAT I ACTUALLY MADE IT INTO THE PEPSI VIDEO! I MUST HAVE BEEN TOO HIGH TO NOTICE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Take a look!
th-cam.com/video/sQVu4lnPnNk/w-d-xo.html
Hun you need to ask where your 💵 for that work . Awesome and your still gorgeous as ever ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
That ad was lit
You were a natural!!! Awesome 80's video/commercial😆youre still a natural!
It was me!!!!:)
and hahaha that's funny Chynna!!
You are so good, with taglines, and slogans. You would make one hell, of an advertising/creative director..
So blessed by your testimony!
Chynna! We've lived the same life, except mine did not include high profile success.
I stopped doing drugs at about 20 years old though. God bless you sweetheart!
Thank you for your candor. I'm about 4 years older so we're from the same era, roughly, so I understand the scene regarding drugs in the 80s.
I just have to add, you look SO GORGEOUS, extraordinarily so, for whatever reason. Your skin is flawless and radiant. How about that bone structure!?😲
Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us.
Peace of Christ✝️🙏💛
Delightful and Lovely as always.
Your testimony is beautiful! This is a journey that will go on through this life and one that is exciting and beautiful as well! Thank you Sister! 🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
Thank you for sharing your story, love you Chynna,, ❤️
We would have had a good time together back in the day! I am so glad we are both living the good life today. God is good!
So sad and scary. You're an amazingly strong woman.
I’m currently trying to get sober from heroin, fentanyl, and meth. I know.. a lot right! Anyway, I just messaged a friend that goes to NA. And asked if I could go to next meeting with her. It took me back to the time I also, was on cocaine and that look in the mirror, and mom telling me I looked dead… it did it for me. I got sober for some years after that. I was also 19. Mom won’t get to see me go back to sober this time. She passed in Jan. I’ve been having that READY feeling and I wish my mama was here so I can detox on her couch once again. But I just wanted to let you know that this video inspired me to take the next step. God bless you ma’am 💕🌹💕
Please don't give up on your recovery. You deserve a better, sober life. You can definitely achieve it. I'm wishing you the best.
We are glad you made it through too, Chynna. Thank you for all the blessings you bring to your viewers. ❤️ your merch! Peace of Christ. ☮️
Thank you for sharing this part of your story. I get what you are saying with the kids. Yea, I too did some crazy things way back when. I am from your mama's generation. God bless you and your family.
Love your comment on surrender ... peace, jettison pride and shame, no condemnation in Him. Thanks for your transparency and freedom.
