ANYBODY CAN STAY SOBER –
Sept. 29, 2022 – At the end of his video, Chris sent a message to anyone on their own sobriety journey. “None of this would have happened if I didn’t have an intervention 5 years ago today,” he wrote. “So if you’re looking for a sign to make a change if I could do it, so can you!!! I love you.” And several stars congratulated him on his achievement. “SO PROUD OF U SOBER KING,” Meghan Trainor wrote in the comments. Added Christy Carlson Romano, “Yassssss!!! Chris! so proud of you!!! Sending you love. One day at a time!” Chris has opened up about his struggles with addiction before, sharing in a 2021 YouTube video that things “really went downhill” the summer before his sophomore year of college.
“I realized I started not being able to go to sleep unless I was under the influence of something,” the content creator, who previously shared he’d gone to rehab for 30 days in high school, said. “I would get so anxious and literally feel antsy and fiend for something because I was like, ‘I need to get out of myself.’ I just could not stand feeling my own feelings at that point, and I felt so low about myself, and having drugs and alcohol was such an escape.”
