Coming up on Great Company

The idea of being alone was so much more terrifying than not just being with someone.

Just terrified to be with my own thoughts.

Was there a moment when you suddenly were like,

hang on, I don't like my own company?

Fifth, wow.

I've never actually really spoke about it like in any, in this kind of detail ever.

I'm Olivia Atwood and I'm in great company. My house, my rules, just fall into dick sand. Sit back down. I'm sad. When you did Love Island, it's still the most watched series ever in the world. The last day before I was about to go in the villa, I thought, I've not swam in the sea the last two weeks. I'm going to swim in the sea today. I waded into, like, here. This little pervert jellyfish, like, attached my vagina. It just looked like I had aggressive herpy outbreak. When Olivia Outward is at home, what kind of personality are you? I'm an extroverted introvert. Have you always been like this? I've always been like if I didn't

know it. I had a very happy childhood, but I was a very anxious child because I used to have

panic attacks when I was at school. Liv, I didn't realize this about you. I give myself a really hard time.

My anxiety was impacting me so much that I went to see someone who was specialised in adolescent anxiety depression.

And I was like, just give me a cure for this.

And at the end of the hour, she was like, has anyone ever talked to you about?

Wow, that would have been a shock.

I guess I was a bit blindsided by it.

And I kind of, I didn't know kind of how to navigate it.

What is your relationship like with yourself now?

Hello everyone. My name is Jamie Lang and this is Great Company.
