She reminds me of so many kids I know. It hurts to watch her killing herself when she has so much to offer and such a sweet personality. I really hope she managed to stay sober despite going back to Tom…
I found her to be so full of life but lost. I hope she is doing fine and has beaten this. If anyone has any updates on her, please let it be known. I would love to hear how she is doing.
Does anyone have any updates on her?
I watched her episode re run today and was wondering the same thing. Hoping she is doing well. I liked her.
Hi just watched the episode and on one of the comments it says she is fine, married with two children.
I am very close with her today, she is doing amazingly well, has an amazing job, is in a very loving relationship & has 2 beautiful kids.
That’s awesome. I’m so glad to hear that. It really struck me how sweet and full of life she was despite struggling with an addiction. You could really see what a kind hearted person she is.
I work in the medical field and yes we have 2 kids but not married yet. I watched an episode of intervention last night and just started poking around.
I’m rooting for you!
My last comment didnt post. Amy I am so glad to hear you are doing well. Your livelypersonality, the relationship you have with your brother, and the cutting, it all reminded me.of myself. When your episode aired I was 14 and that was when I had started cutting myself. Seeing your episode helped me to realize that I wasnt the only.person going through things and using that as a coping mechanism. I am also very close with my brother. I’m so happy to hear you are doing well and I hope the future continues to be good for you.
Hi Amy. So glad to hear an update all these years later. Hope you’re doing well.
amy is so sweet, i hope life is still going well for her. the relationship she has with her family, particularly her brother, is something to be envied. so very precious. <3

I definitely feel like she was one of the most likeable addicts.
She should be in the most likeable addicts category, Dizzy!
Oh Amy! She was so very likeable and lovable! This episode was gripping! The scene of her fighting with her bf then going and cutting herself with a knife was harrowing! I cried! Such a intelligent, sweet girl, full of potential! Her brother was so amazing, always there to rescue her! Finding out that she’s doing well all these years later is awesome!! Yay Amy! I hope her brother is doing well too!
I wish there were more updates on all of the older season participants!! The first few seasons were the best! Would love to know how they all are!! <3
Her Brother is CUTE!
