Celebrity Psychic Chris Medina on Depression, Spirituality, and Starting Over
Chris Medina describes experiencing unusual sights, sounds, energies, and what he calls spiritual guidance from approximately three or four years old. As he grew older, those experiences became harder for him to understand. At one point as a young adult, he sought medical help because he believed he was hearing voices and feared something was seriously wrong. Throughout the conversation, Medina repeatedly acknowledges the complexity of distinguishing spiritual beliefs from legitimate mental health concerns, even saying that some situations require medical attention. His own interpretation of those early experiences eventually became central to the way he understood himself and his life.

His childhood also contained pain that extended far beyond spirituality. Medina recalls being bullied through junior high and high school and says one attack was severe enough that he experienced a seizure. Looking back, he describes learning to survive by reading situations, controlling his emotions, and sometimes manipulating circumstances to take attention away from himself. Yet one of his strongest reflections is that he does not wish he had been given a different childhood. He believes those experiences forced him to develop boundaries and self-control. In one of the most striking statements of the episode, Medina says, “My parents didn’t raise me. My guides raised me,” describing the internal or spiritual guidance he believes helped him understand lessons he was not receiving elsewhere.
One of the darkest chapters came after he became a father. He describes living quickly, going through a devastating breakup, struggling with depression, barely eating, and reaching a night when he contemplated taking his life. Before falling asleep, he prayed for his mindset to be different when he woke up. Medina then experienced an intense dream involving danger, prayer, and a voice instructing him to protect himself. He says that when he awakened, something had profoundly shifted: rather than struggling to escape despair, he found himself struggling to remember what that despair had felt like. He interpreted the experience as a message that if he had been given another opportunity, he needed to do something meaningful with his life.
