His Ex Girlfriend
Join hosts Chase DeMoor and Gabrielle Moses on Unscripted as they welcome, Carly Lawrence, who shared the spotlight with Chase during their time on Netflix's "Too Hot To Handle". We dive into their past as well as Carly's inspiring journey overcoming social anxiety and addiction. Carly discusses how she battled drinking and vaping habits developed as coping mechanisms for her anxiety. She highlights the significant positive changes after quitting, including increased confidence and self-discovery. The episode explores the impact of social media on mental health and the stigma surrounding mental health and addiction. We discuss the impact reality TV has had and if that path continues to be an option moving forward. The message is clear: with resilience, therapy, and healthy coping strategies, anyone can overcome adversity and find the path to a brighter future! Highlights: "I think it's really important to take care of yourself and to love yourself." “I was masking my personality with drinking and so I didn't know what I actually liked and now I'm starting to do more things that like, I'm picking up soap making and I'm gonna make candles and I've really started to read." “It's really important to find healthy coping mechanisms for anxiety."
