But after it is revealed that her mother is Taylor James, she begins to show a darker side to personality realizing that her mother was here the entire time. She separated herself from everything that made her feel normal and good, with Chris seeking her severe medical attention.

Her life changed, however, when she was diagnosed with a mental disorder. Her inability to cope with the disorder almost lead her to suicide but her then boyfriend Jeremy helped her through and made her stronger. Continuing their relationship helped her see that she wanted more out of life so she decided to give him space.
