When Camilla Tominey isn't writing in the Telegraph, she's the patron of Nacoa, The National Association for Children of Alcoholics, a charity that provides a space for people, young and old, to discuss the effect parental drinking has had on their life.
This Addiction Awareness Week, Bryony has teamed up with Action on Addiction and the Forward Trust to bring you a conversation each day tackling a different element of addiction. Because even though we are slowly breaking down the stigma around discussing mental health, addiction - sadly - remains a taboo, even though we will all know someone touched by it.
Camilla tells Bryony about the slow realisation that her childhood wasn't normal, why she's keen to paint a picture of her mum beyond her alcoholism, and how she wishes she didn't have to explain why she doesn't drink.
Action on Addiction is a UK charity providing support to people who need rehab, as well as a wealth of resources for those battling addiction issues: www.actiononad...
If you are a child of an alcoholic you can get advice and support from Nacoa for free on 0800 358 3456
You can find more information about organisations that offer free and confidential support at the end of this episode.
