He's been pretty open about his mental health, and I think it's something he struggled with for definitely a good amount of time, even before we were together. It was no secret. And I think that, you know, with mental health and addiction, it really is... You just never really know what way it's going to go. And it's just a flip that can switch.

I think that for him, yeah, he experienced struggles with mental health for years before dating me as well. And I think that he did struggle with addiction. And I think, again, he was pretty open about that. And like I said, with mental health, it's kind of the same thing where it's like... addiction is something where obviously you don't want to have that addiction.

And it's something, you know, if he could have chose to just be sober the rest of his life, he would have been. It's just something that... I, at first, I think didn't fully understand. I don't have addiction that runs in my family. I didn't really understand it at first. So to be completely honest, I think in the beginning of our relationship, when he was struggling a little bit,

I think that I remember just kind of being like in my head, like, well, can't you just not do that? But it's not that easy. It's not easy at all. And they don't want, an addict doesn't want to do that. He doesn't want to pick up a drink. He doesn't want to take a certain substance. Like they don't want to do that, but they...

it's almost like their brain is wired to pick up that beer, to do that thing. And that's when I started to realize like, this addiction is a serious thing.

I think it was, I finally realized, you know, that this is something he did not choose, you know, something that he does not want to choose. When he would, like I said prior, it's, we would have the best day. We would have such a great day. And then later on that night, it was just something would just tick in his brain where he couldn't help himself.

And I think that's a huge factor with addiction in our relationship. Yeah. balance was definitely a huge key. I really tried to do what I could to help him and better him and distract his mind. For me, I'm really not a home buddy at all. And Liam was a home buddy and that's okay. But for me, I didn't want to be at home from the minute I wake up to the minute I go to sleep.

And one thing I remember closer to the was that I remember Liam would always order us coffee from Starbucks on Uber Eats every morning. And I eventually said to him, I was like, this is before I got my, you know, I was able to drive and learn how to drive on the other side of the road in England, as you know. And I remember saying to him, I was like, you know, you have a car.

Why don't we just go out and grab a coffee? Like, why do we have to order one every single morning from Starbucks? And He just would always say, I just, I don't really want to get out of bed. I don't want to get out of bed yet. I just want to have like a lazy morning and then we'll go do something later on.

And for me, I prefer to actually wake up early, go grab a cup of coffee, go on a Starbucks drive-thru, sit on the drive-thru. I know it's something so small, but it makes my day feel 10 times more productive. Just getting out of bed rather than sitting in your bed and waiting for a coffee to show up right at your doorstep.
