Milkstained.

Jessyka interviews a guest who suffers from alcoholism. A tale of two differing personalities: sober and drunk are two totally different versions of this person. The latter is scary and dangerous, the former? Sweet and genuine. Alcohol has a way of numbing anxieties and past traumas but that numbing agent is an unhealthy way of coping with the demons that live inside the head of someone who struggles with alcoholism as the trauma presents itself in self hatred which causes very scary situations to occur. This episode is all about the situations this guest has been in due to their struggle with problematic drinking, the final straw to sobriety and a few slip ups along the way. Remember: every day is a new day to begin again.

This episode starts off with Jessyka & Cameron bantering through laughter about the photo evolution since the beginning of their friendship. You could say at one point it was at an “all time high”. Naturally Cam & Jess go into the main topic by discussing Jessyka’s heterosexual dating history (from a very young age) comparing it to Cameron’s closeted perspective. Cameron kind of always knew he was gay but the rest of his family and friends had no idea. This is his coming out story. Through laughter and lots of love for the ones closest to him Cameron recounts the stories of who he told first, the first reactions and first dating experiences. His story shows the dichotomy of confusion and acceptance. Even with a very accepting circle Cameron struggled to come out. His fears of what society would think of him over powered his ability to be true to himself. Once he realized it doesn’t matter what “they” think he was able to accept himself and begin living a life he always dreamed of: out and proud.
