When she talks about being so tired.....classic depression. It's such a shame that people (myself inclluded) feel like they have to put on "the mask" and hide their depression from others. Most of us are people pleasers to the end, not wanting to upset others. What a beautiful woman inside and out. Such a loss. Prayers for all of her loved ones.

There were hints of her depression in this clip if you pay attention. “I was a happy kid back then, had lots of energy, but now there is no energy, I’m always tired” “I wish I didn’t get rid of my gap while trying to conform and look like everybody else” “I wish I could have been okay being myself” “I am an introvert, I didn’t have lots of friends…” Rest in peace beautiful! I wish she was strong enough to beat it. So much talent, beauty and class, all gone.

Rest In Peace. 🙏🏽 May God be with the family and friends.

She looked and spoke as if she was in control of her mind. We will never know her struggles. May she rest in peace. We love you queen.

She just didn't realize how much of a superhero she truly was

She’s so hard on herself, yet she’s absolutely perfectly smart and beautiful. Depression is insidious, it can creep up on you and before you know it you have no energy for even doing the things you love. RIP C. K.

Cheslie Kryst was born on April 28, 1991 and her life tragically ended today on January 30, 2022. This is a video of her looking back on her childhood in 2020… she was Miss USA 2019, an attorney, and an incredible inspiration to young girls. This video is so much more sad with the given context of what she was going through internally. She left everything to her mom in her suicide note 💔. I can see the inner depression in her smiling eyes throughout this video. She was trying her best to stay strong and positive… I so wish that someone could have helped her feel more comfortable with needing mental health help. To tell her it’s okay to be depressed, but she was still worth more than she knew… may she Rest In Power and may we all learn to take mental health seriously.

27 was tough for me (now 65). I was so depressed because I had not accomplished much. I finished college and hated the career choice I made. By the time I turned 30yrs old life turned around for me. Wish she had not given up. R.I.P.

Mental health is not a joke. We need to be kind to each other and don't judge anyone.

She was so adorable but insecure and worried about what others thought.

She stated she had so much energy now I'm just tired..That was a sign people with depression battle getting out of bed just to do there daily living ..This is just heart Breaking

This is way deeper than psychology (man knowledge). This is spiritual.

She hid everything better than I could ever dream of doing, if I had been dealing with emotions as heavy as she. Cheslie was a very strong woman. Very determined and sure of her intentions. She was very focused and walked in the power of self determination. I still respect her. I refuse to look or “feel some kind of way” towards her because of her decision to exit the planet like she did. I celebrate her life and the fact that she is now at peace. She accomplished so much in this lifetime! Rest In Peace, the great Cheslie Kryst! ❤️✨

WHAT A GENUINE, BEAUTIFUL SOUL. Of many of the “ pagea participants” I’ve seen, Cheslie had a warmth and realness to her that made her relatable. Given what I have seen of her character I think she would want to leave behind a legacy of people not being afraid to ask for help and loving themselves more. (I say this because while she was struggling internally, she was clearly giving of herself and would not wish that pain on anyone else)I hope we can all honor her by her doing both of these things a little more in our daily lives. ❤️🙏🏼❤️I know why the cage bird sings.

Sounds like she was really close with her family 😕sending them all the love and light in this tragic, unfortunate situation..

At 5:03 Turning 30 was really scary to her. She looked like she wanted to start crying thinking about it. This is so sad.

5:00 that moment was telling. I wish I knew her and was able to talk to her. I know how that feels

She's so lovely, adorable, smart, the daughter anyone would long for. This is unbelievably tragic. What she accomplished at her young age of 30 is amazing. I don't think she will ever be forgotten.

If it’s difficult for us (who don’t know her) to find any understanding of her death, imagine how hard it will be for her family. I’m very sorry to those who have lost a loved on like Cheslie, suddenly and unexpectedly.

She may have had the most beautiful smile but deep down internally she was suffering and rather burden others she smiled her pain away .. the eyes our the windows to our soul and her eyes showed dimness, tiredness & sadness .. she didn’t have that twinkle spark you can see in her childhood pics.. I get the feeling she was bullied as a child, along with what she says she didn’t have many friends, was introverted, mommy was her best friend, she strived to be all she could be, pushed herself to achieve all her accomplishments for the validation of others and yet all the while her cup was not full … but yet she was so loved by so many.. something was missing .. she was truly a beautiful soul inside & out..she accomplished so much maybe she just couldn’t figure out her true purpose .. people need validation she wanted to be seen as the child she once was not for her beauty and all her accomplishments.. RIP Sweet Angel 🤍🕊🌬🌹😢 xoxo

The part where she talks about being tired everyday and having no energy says a lot 😔

This may sound silly, I have a picture of my 5 year old self on my refrigerator and I talk to her a lot and tell her how much I love her, how smart and pretty she is, and I apologize to her for the stupid mistakes I've made where I might have put her in danger, or compromised her integrity. I have only been doing this a year and I'm 50 now. I hope this can help someone else. Rest In the arms of our father Cheslie, and may your family find a way to cope.

I am just learning about her and her death all in today. And the more videos I watch of her, the more I understand what happened here, This girl was a rare soul like myself. Some call it "chosen ones". She had a pure spirit...like she genuinely loves everyone and wants the best for everyone even her enemies. Almost like a child like innocence. For people like us, just life in general is tough to bare because we simply just cannot believe the way some people are with their hatred, jealousy, envy, etc.

OMG my heart is breaking for her family. What a loss of a lovely young woman. May she finally find peace.

I am still numb. Cheslie was so special, intelligent, kind, a brilliant aura. I know her soul is in a far better place and is smiling and glowing and shining down upon the world. Shocking and sad.

It makes me so sad to hear her reminisce about the time when she had “so much energy” and how she was just so tired. This was a year ago. What an amazing young woman and gift to earth, taken far too soon. ❤️

Condolences towards her Parents and her siblings. She resembles my beautiful daughter. She tragically journeyed on at 33 in August, 2020. Days, before my 52nd Birthday. A Parent's worse nightmare on burying their children.🤦🏾‍♀🙏🏾🌹

To think of this Beautiful young women,who thought turning 30 is old ..Heart breaking....Such a gifted spirit of Love inside and out ..Prayers for her Family .We felt this 😪 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

This is unreal! I’m reading every article I can. I’m still in disbelief. I’ve been struggling myself with my mental health. I now have a renowned appreciation for life. My thoughts are with your loved ones. Thank you Cheslie. Rest in Paradise. I hope you’ve found peace.

Just from looking at this video she seems PERFECT and gorgeous to me. She definitely was a breath of fresh air. She really had no idea of how many women on the planet would have loved to be her if they could. RIP beautiful soul.

How can she be gone? What a pretty lady! She had such wisdom to share. May she rest in peace.

Her lack of energy she refers too is a sign of depression. The poor lady was suffering

In agreement this is one of the indicators that her way of living drained her core ! It is good to surround yourself with individuals that will point you in the right direction. She probably could have just quit all that and make a life change instead of quitting life! Is there a woman’s advocacy to stop the next victim? Rest in Power🙏🏾

Cheslie had a beautiful childhood and loving family. I wished she would've known that life begins at 30!!! There was another chapter, another journey waiting for her to explore. My prayers and condolences to Cheslie's mother, family, friends and colleagues. May Cheslie Rest In Peace. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤🕯🌹👑🕊

This video speaks a lot about Cheslie and her inner struggles. I'm still shocked that she's no more with us 😢

She made the comment the closer you get to 30 and talked a lot about having a lot of energy when she was younger and how she always felt tired...too bad she couldn't take a break and get mental help...RIP beautiful angel.

5:05 “I have no energy any more..every day I’m tired. “ 😢

30 is not old please young people ✋️ stop thinking that.

How tragic and sad. I remember watching when she was crowned. How beautiful and happy she looked. I’ve been watching all of her tik toks and interviews for the past 24 hours and it just seems unbelievable what has happend. May God have her in his arms 🕊😞 🙏🏼

She wanted to become a Superhero in a movie, now she is a Superhero in Heaven, RIP Cheslie Kryst😢🕊🙏❤

All the news coverage footages I watched about her death and I didn’t she’d not one tear until I came to this video 🙏🏽😞 she reminds me of myself . I just turned 30 as well. This was like watching myself . I pray for her soul . I pray that she is in peace . I wonder what her last moment of thoughts were.

She was absolute gorgeous. May she Rest In Peace! 🙏

I think her mentioning turning 30. She had a fear of getting old…….. even though she wasnt old at all. A horrific story. Hope this beautiful woman. Is a peace now

she seemed very down to earth and relatable rest easy beautiful 🕊🥀

Her mom is as gorgeous as her. Beautiful genes ❤

5:00, that was glimpse into her heavy depression. I literally saw the emptiness in her eyes and voice. 😢😢😢😢

I am still chocked.... She was full of energy and a real sunshine . she loved the life ... Rest in peace Cheslie. You left this earth so young.

She was so beautiful. Condolences and prayers to the family.

She was truly a stunning beauty and seemed so full of life it breaks my heart that her depression took her life. Mental health needs more attention there is still a stigma concerning mental health. My deepest condolences to her family and friends

This definitely hits different now that you’re gone. First Regina Kings son now you.😢

So beautiful. What a waste!!! I wish she could have been saved.😰 Another thing, ppl please stop diminishing the gravity of this situation and saying her death was as a result of foul play. We all need to acknowledge that seemingly strong, beautiful and overall “having their shit together,” people have mental health struggles too. Yes, sometimes depression wins! The sooner we acknowledge this, the sooner we can reach out to people who might need help instead of glossing over the signs. It’s an insult to this young lady to deny the pain that might have driven her to take such drastic actions! May her family find comfort at this time.🥺

Shocked. Saddened. Praying for her family. Love those pictures. You were a strong soul that challenged societal ignorance to your age, your beauty, your brilliance. I only wished you had someone to reach out to and ride out the emotional storms. 💕

She Was So Beautiful And Full Of Life! Smh Please Don’t EVER KILL YOURSELF THAT ISNT YOUR LAST RESORT PEOPLE! 🙏🏾May God Comfort Her Family During This Hard Time For Them🌷

Completely heart breaking and as a society we must normalize mental health! She’s so beautiful, talented, accomplished, very charismatic, and throw is truly crushing. Sigh…my heart felt most sincere condolences and prayers goes out to her family, and friends 💔💔💔💔🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Rest In Peace. So sad that she went through depression I would have never known she suffered from it.

To see her here, so bubbly just hurts my heart. RIP ...i pray that God will give you what you were missing here on earth.

She was trying to hang on to the joyful memories of her youth.

It seems she strived to be 100 % perfect nonstop in her short life . That’s unattainable and a very tiring journey. Wish she knew how to take things easy. 30 is not the end it’s the start of adult life!😢. She has no idea how everybody wishes to be 30! Baby you didn’t need the awards or any accolades. You were perfect just the way you are. God made you fearfully and wonderfully. You didn’t need to achieve anything to be accepted and loved. Didn’t you know how much God loved you with out any preconditions! ❤️ Rest easy beloved sister.

Her legacy will forever live on in peace and here in KZfaq. RIP Cheslie Kryst.

I am a former Miss Universe Canada contestant, and the MUO is based on a sisterhood that transcends cultures, race, and class. We are forever changed of the loss of Cheslie Kryst Miss USA 2019. Our condolences to her family and friends. Rest peacefully Cheslie ❤

Painfully sad to lose an Angel on this earth as she was Rest In Peace Cheslie Kryst Prayers and positive vibes for your family and friends

She had so many gifts. Ugh! It makes me so sad for her and her family. If she only knew how much she was loved and how many people looked up to her.

Another victim of COVID lockdown. So many people who were depressed became more so in 2020 and couldn’t shake the loneliness. The winter months make it all worse. Fly with the Angels Cheslie. Praying for your family ✝️🙏

Idk what needs to happen to avoid less of this kind of thing. But I hate hearing stories of suicide to me its such a sad way to go its like they are imprisoned by there own minds that they can't see a way out. I know I have periods where I am really depressed and I really do relate to her talking about being an introvert and her school days. I just try everything in my power not to get too consumed by the hopeless thoughts. For everybody who is struggling with depression pls hang in there and take everything one day at a time. May peace follow you all throughout your life 🙏🏼 ❤

0:58 Cheslie Kryst you did become a SUPERHERO too everyone who truly loved & admire you & for all that you stood for. And for that we say THANK YOU 💐🕊

Rest In Peace sweet soul. Even here you can hear her pain of not really knowing who she is, always tired and regrets of not growing up with a sense of self. I’m 47 and struggled all my life with depression and I can relate, what keeps me going is my kids and not wanting them to suffer from my absence. My condolences to her family and friends 🙏🏾

Rest in Peace🦋🙏You will never be forgotten😥

Beautiful young lady. I can't imagine the pain her mother will now have for the rest of her life.

Her dad is so handsome...!!! 3:45

Cheslie Kryst Still in Shock...This North Carolina Gal. Prayers continued for the family 🙏.

Such a gem 💎 Rest in peace beautiful

She's amazing and I, myself, have MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) so I can totally relate to her struggles. The main thing is my son, that is why I'm here and will always be here. Who knows if not..God bless her family in this trying time..⭐

Hope you rest well my girl. You were beautiful.

*To Cheslie Kryst's family, we are wishing you hope in the mist of sorrow, comfort in the midst of pain. Beautiful Cheslie will always be a part of your family. I’m keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.*

Her voice is shaking in a lot of the emotional reflections. She is so beautiful, but with the benefit of hindsight, she looks and sounds on the verge of tears. 😢 it’s like she knows she is amazing, but feels sorrow for the girl that journeyed to become who she is. She wants to love that version of herself but feels bad for her. My sister has hair like her, long thick and curly. She had her hair cut like the Mohawk pic of Cheslie when she was in elementary school and was never the same. She was always sad. That is all they have in common because my sister has struggled with substance abuse and mental health issues. She is alive, thank God, but my heart bleeds for Cheslie. I relate to her on many levels as an achiever, but never an achiever at her level. Beautiful, and relishing the currency$ of my beauty, but not a beauty queen. Strong, but no six pack. I’m an introvert who turns it on and charms those around me, I hide my emotions. In the storing one, and the one others turn to. And I have ten years in her. I have struggled with mental health and I’ve gotten treatment and therapy. I’m thriving and I am compassionate with myself. I fear the loss of my beauty, but I’m solo as beautiful as I was ten years ago- maybe more so! I with Cheslie had given herself a chance to heal and to further mature. I am the youngest of four and still feel like I’m in my twenties. I’m immature in many ways, but after a lifetime of perfectionism, ocd, add, ptsd, anxiety, and perfectly hidden depression, I have immense compassion for myself. I look forward more than I look back. I find lessons in hardship and challenge myself to find my role in any conflict. I am what Cheslie could have become, but she would have made it to 40 having accomplished twice as much. I say that with no self depreciation. I’m very successful and very talented. But I’m ok with not being best and the most. I have not Alexis been ok with it- but I am not. I wish Cheslie had given herself the chance to evolve. My daughter is her. Tall, muscular, waist length curls, brown, beautiful. She could be a beauty queen like Cheslie. In 2019, when Cheslie was crowned Miss USA, my little one was 7. She was crying and begging for me to cut her hair. She hated her beautiful hair because it was not like the girls at school. I showed her Cheslie and let her see a woman who looked like her was the beauty queen of our nation. It made my daughter beam. She learned to wash and detangle her own hair and wears it out like Cheslie and with pride! Cheslie touched more people than she could have even imagined. I’m in disbelief, but I took this opportunity to offer my daughter my preemptive support if she ever feels despair. My daughters are very emotional and highly sensitive. And Cheslie, while an inspiration to us all, is also a cautionary tale. I send my love to Cheslie, and to anyone struggling. Please be kind to yourselves. You deserve it!

Such a beautiful soul:(…rest peacefully

May this this beautiful young lady's family find peace and comfort in this difficult time, and if someone actually caused her death and it wasnt a true suicide, may they be caught and brought to justice.

Wow. What a loss. Rest well sweet Angel. I really hope you found the peace you were desperately seeking 😢

It seems when people accomplish so much at a young age, they don't live long!! They either get overwhelmed or feel they have nothing more to look forward to!! I believe parents put alot of pressure on their children too! By the time they reach an adult, they don't know who they are

She was so full of joy. Such a beautiful human, inside and out. 🙏❤️The world will miss you.

I watched extra because of her such a beautiful girl I loved her style the way walked so sophisticated Rest in Perfect Peace...

She may be at peace but her family is hurting. I can't imagine the pain they are all feeling. Suicide hurts everyone who loves you.

Rest In Peace beautiful 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

So many people wish they could go back in time. SO sad. I feel so bad for her mum.

What a loss and such a special lady, Rest In Peace little one

She didn't seem like an introvert, she seemed down to earth ... condolences to her family.

You could read between the lines where there was some depression setting in. That bubbly side made you forget the in between lines of a sadness & loneliness. We have to start paying attention to these seemingly non important signals. My heart is breaking for the loss of another beautiful & lonely soul who took this permanent way of solving the hurt. Even now I've been reading of children under the age of 10 using this as a form of helping the hurt not knowing it's a permanent act. 😢😪

rest in peace cheslie. thank you for being a good miss usa, miss universe contestant and an amazing friend and roommate to our Queen Zozi.

She had everything to live for. Why oh why?🙏🏿😢

I’m watching this video and noticing all the hints she was dropping about how she felt about herself, even saying age 30 is old. Poor baby. She needed help and no one recognized it. Such a waste of a brilliant and beautiful young life. May she Rest In Peace with Jesus.

What a beautiful soul, what a light she brings to others🌷

"Maybe one time Ill play being a superhero." This gave me chills.

Rest In Peace Cheslie kryst. You will always be in our hearts.

Hello, Cheslie!!! I like your childhood and adolescent photos. I think it showed how a pretty young girl grew to become a marvelous young woman with the greatest of potentials. Congratulations for winning Miss USA in 2019 (belated, of course). I hope you continue to do pageant commentary in the future, plus fulfilling your legal obligations as an attorney. You deserve everything you've earned.

seeing her makes me emotional #RIPCheslie

The word tired says it all. Praying for the family

It's interesting to hear her say she was always a happy child full of energy given how depressed she ultimately became. I initially speculated that perhaps she was born depressed; that she suffered from depression her entire life but it doesn't sound like it from what she's shared. So it beckons the questions, when did it change for her? ...and what caused her to fall into such a depression?

So sad! Beautiful and smart praying for her family and friends! ❤️

My heart aches so much for you beautiful. What a shining light you were and it saddens me you were too hurt to overcome your demons. Watching this is so surreal. 💔💔💔

How can anybody say she is not beautiful. She is beautiful.
