Chyna was 'emotionally strained' before her death

Los Angeles  - Chyna was "a little emotionally strained" in the days leading up to her death.

Her manager and friend Anthony Anzaldo has revealed the wrestling legend - who was found dead on Wednesday  at her apartment in Redondo Beach, California - was taking sleeping pills and anxiety medication around the time of her passing.

He explained: "She had been a little emotionally strained. She was really confronting some demons and she may have been taking a little bit more than normal.

"Every couple of days she'd be a little bit off of her game, a little loopy, like maybe she had taken too much but she was still coherent. It looked like she died peacefully in her sleep, there were no illegal drugs, no alcohol, it wasn't like her home was a mess. At this time there's no thought of it being an intentional thing.''

Anthony was the one to find Chyna on Wednesday after he grew increasingly concerned for her welfare because he hadn't heard from her in three days.

He added to PEOPLE magazine: "I went over there is because she was unresponsive for three days. She wasn't responding to any calls or anything so the last communication was Sunday, they think she died on Monday I found her on Wednesday."
