Dr. Phil to Guest: ‘You’re the Adult. Act Like It’ | Dr. Phil

Nicky, 17, says she loves to fight and proudly posts the videos of the brawls on the Internet. The teen brags that she once cracked a girl’s head on the concrete, has broken cheekbones and noses, and has had so many confrontations, she's lost count. She says the police have been called to her home as many as 80 times, and she’s been arrested monthly since she was 13 years old. What’s at the root of her rage? Dr. Phil delves deep into Nicky’s past to find the source of her pain. And, Nicky’s mom, Yvette, says she feels helpless and fears her daughter will end up dead or in prison, but is she modeling bad behavior? An anonymous letter to the show makes shocking allegations against Yvette. Can Dr. Phil get this family help -- before someone gets really hurt -- or worse? (2311001)

Nikki here, now 29 years old. I cringe looking back on these memories. I’m disgusted by my behavior in my adolescence, unfortunately I was a product of my environment and growing up in the Bay Area and Central Valley this life style is very common to turn to when you can’t turn to your own family. I was never a bully targeting random people, I never went looking for fights just to fight, but I was never known to walk away or be the bigger person either. After years of therapy I know now that I was hurting and crying out for help. I was taking my pain out everyone around me ultimately hurting myself more. I did do jail time and I was shot shortly after this was filmed leaving a bullet in my lung for the rest of my life. Today my mother and I have mended our relationship. I have two children of my own that are my world and I would be devastated if either of them behaved this way. Looking back now, as embarrassing as it all is, I’m grateful for the help I received. I don’t know I would have made it to where I am today.
