So when I did, I was like, I can't admit that to people.

And that was definitely on me.

But I think now looking back, I wish I'd had more of a transparent relationship with my parents.

And I wish...

I'd known it was okay.

And their reaction was, as I found out when it all came to a head, was so different to what I thought it was going to be.

Because I'd played in my head that they were going to react in a certain way.

They reacted in completely the opposite way.

And I think that's sometimes the thing you're so worried about judgment.

You're worried about the consequences when ultimately the consequences are going to be worse if you carry on.

But you think...

it's impossible to get over it.

And you think it's impossible to live a life without whatever it is that you're doing, which again is not true.

So I think that's the, they're the three sort of most important things.

Yeah, I mean, I heard someone, a parent say the other day to me about taking drugs.

Like, I don't care if you take drugs.

I just want you to tell me.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's that kind of very transparent and honest relationship that I think is really important because otherwise it goes underground.
