Is she on any other social media?

Indeed she is.

Drink was the only thing that could help me sleep or numb everything that was going on around me… it was the death threats, the abuse, all of that.

You can also follow Alex on TikTok. Her username is @AlexScott.

Alex Scott on social media trolling

It might come as a bit of a surprise that Alex is still on social media given the impact trolling on the platforms has had on her.

She previously revealed she turned to alcohol after the comments got so bad.

Alex told Women’s Health: “I was drinking most nights. I would easily go through bottles to try and switch off.

“It was the only thing that could help me sleep or numb everything that was going on around me… it was the death threats, the abuse, all of that.

“I found myself pulling away from everyone around me, not wanting to talk to anyone.”

Alex said turning to booze was “unlike her” and she underwent therapy to help her deal with trolling issues.

She called it her “I can’t take it any more, I need to tell you all what I’m going through moment”.

And Alex said going to therapy was the most “enlightening thing I’ve ever done in my life”.
