    Unfortunately it looks like Alyson is dealing with some sort of severe mental illness per her fb account now: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088568137312
    I was hoping she was happy and healthy, her story touched me.

    Oh lord her Facebook posts are so disturbing. I could only look for a few minutes honestly. i am kinda surprised she is still alive (similar to Christy) since there has been over 20 years of drug abuse going on here – on top of mental illness.

    Her most recent Tik Tok is disturbing. I wonder if she has any support in her life now to manage what is either a relapse, a break from reality, or both.
