Maia Campbell Is Getting Help
After viewing the video last week of Maia Campbell high and deranged it looks like someone has stepped in to help her out. Maia who has been diagnosed with bipolar/manic depression is in treatment now. Nancy Carter, a family friend and the executive director of NAMI Urban Los Angeles(affiliate of NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness) has released a statement regarding the status of Maia:
Maia is in treatment…and there is hope for Maia’s recovery but the prayers of “50,000,000″ people can make the difference, because Maia doesn’t like to stay in treatment, and her treatment involves drug withdrawal as well as treatment for her disorders. Maia’s disorders are exasperated and sent out of control by substance abuse. Pre-existing and early onset bi-polar, clinical depression and schizophrenia can be sent out of control by marijuana (the worst culprit), alcohol and of course, synthetic and street drugs.
We wish Maia the best in her steps toward a clean life.
