Episode description
Last year Alicia went viral on TikTok after posting funny videos with her wife, gaining 1.3 million followers. Creating content gave her a purpose and drew her out of a depression so bad she struggled to get out of bed. But with her success comes the pressure of being a queer role model, and online abuse for her sexuality. Yungblud and Alicia discuss the positives and negatives of social media and how it impacts their mental health.
