At the end of the clip, Todd reveals that Nic took an unnamed drug that, when tested by doctors after trying, was known to cause depression and anxiety.

Savannah added: “In 2020, there was a study done that showed the side effects were all psychological.”

‘ALRIGHT’

Savannah, who was moved as Nic recounted his harrowing story, rejoiced when he finished.

She told viewers, and her happiness: “One of the biggest takeaways is that it’s okay to be okay.

“That’s what I feel like I told Nic just now that it’s okay, it’s okay to talk about your feelings, it’s okay to ask for help.

“There’s a suicide prevention hotline you can call. There are so many different stores and I just don’t want you to be scared to ask for help”

Todd also offered two cents on the matter, expressing his love for Nic.

“Everybody knows that Todd has been involved in every relationship my kids have ever had and this is the only relationship I’ve ever loved,” he said.

“I love you to this day. And son, I will always love you. I don’t care if you marry my daughter or not. I don’t care if you guys date.

“I don’t care if you’ve ever been boyfriend and girlfriend. I love you for you because you were a good kid with a big heart and you don’t deserve a glass bowl or a clean lifestyle. the aquarium you’ve inherited because of ours.”

Savannah expressed sadness that Nic had to share her story so soon.

“It’s unfortunate that someone who’s dealing with this right now shouldn’t be on social media and forced to tell their story,” she said, holding back tears.

“It was the most heartbreaking part that he was able to tell his story in his time and he didn’t have enough money for that luxury and that’s another form of trauma he has to go through now. “

‘I’M PROUD OF YOU’

The video ends on a high note, though both Todd and Savannah have expressed disappointment and made it public.

Todd turns to Nic when the clip ends and says: “Son, I’m proud of you. This family has no shame on you.”

He added: “I want you to know, I love you boy. I love you more today than I ever loved you. That will never change.

“I’ll be here for you until the day the good Lord calls me home. Once he calls me home, I hope that’s before he calls you home, and if I can’t help you before then I die, my money will.”

Speaking of the complicated relationship situation, Savannah said: “We’ve been back and forth, but my thing is you don’t treat people like they’re disposable.

“And having someone in your life for four years doesn’t matter if you’re still dating someone, you’re still there for someone. You show love. You show compassion.

“It’s okay okay. I think that’s the biggest thing that people think it’s embarrassing.”

BE AWARE OF

As the video ends, Savannah, Nic, and Todd discuss the drugs and their side effects.

Chief Chrisley shared with viewers that Nic took medicine to prevent going bald – a drug he recommended to him.

He said they later learned that the pills are known to cause negative psychological effects.

Nic urges viewers: “I think that’s the point of whether you’re going through problems and you’re suicidal and are likely to have those thoughts, or you’re on medication and you’ve had a seizure. pain, anything resembling an outside source like marijuana or alcohol can take you to a position you never thought you were in.

“The past 3 years have been the best years of my life…but I have to believe that God has a much bigger purpose for my life.”
