Tackling Drinking Flashbacks: Vic and Lucy's Honest Take

When I see a nice sunset, I'm like, oh, I just remember like, oh yeah, that sort of feeling of excitement for a night out, whereas, like the night time, I like because that's party time. It makes my jaw clench a little bit the sound of house music, because I just imagine me in a nightclub in a big toilet, probably not even dancing, just gurning and saying to people: have you come up yet, or looking in the mirror thinking how beautiful you are?
Grab your cup of Chamomile tea and get comfy, because Vic and Lucy are diving into a topic that might hit close to home for many.
