Mackenzie McKee Admits 'Anxiety Attacks Are Awful' After Mom Angie Douthit's Death

Teen Mom OG star Mackenzie McKee is speaking out the recent death of her mother, Angie Douthit, and sadly, she and her family are still in the thick of grieving.

The Blast reports that the 25-year-old TV personality recently shared that her mother’s passing to cancer in December has devastated the family, particularly her father, Brad. She revealed, “I never thought I would say this, but watching my dad go through this, has been more heartbreaking than losing my mom. It is the worst thing I’ve ever had to see someone go through.”

The reality personality then compared her parents to former Hollywood couple, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, saying, “If you knew them, you knew that there was no Brad without Angie, and no Angie without Brad. We even would call them Brangie. Us kids took turns staying with him.”

As you all know, I’ve gone through a lot lately. I have avoided talking to anyone regarding where things stand since her passing, and have passed on opportunities for interviews regarding her. But, I know that many of you want to know how we’re doing, how my Dad is doing, and how we’re honoring her memory on a daily basis. I also know many of you are curious about some things regarding her we may not have shared in the past, as well as where things stand with her book. I decided to give a one time tell all interview. I miss you daily momma, every day and strive to make you proud, both with what I’m sharing here and every day of my life. I miss and love you more than words can say. #alwaysbekind #linkinbio

While Mackenzie is obviously worried about her dad, she too has been having a difficult time. The mom-of-three admitted:

“Nights are very hard. I stay busy all hours of the day. And I’m ok. But nights are nearly impossible to get through to the morning. I run off of few hours of sleep a night no matter how many sleep aids I take. The anxiety attacks are awful, but I have hope time will heal.”

Much like her mom, the MTV star is leaning of her faith in this dark time. “I think she worried about me the most. It was rough raising me. She carried me through so many tough times in life,” Mackenzie revealed. “I’ve been through so much the past year of my life that God is my only hope at this point. I am and was nothing without him, And I know this would make her proud.”

We hope that Mackenzie, Brad, and the whole family find peace during this difficult time.
