    About Me

    I've always liked a spin on the fruit machines but for years always kept my gambling under control, over the past 18months my gambling has escalated and i've lost control and am in big financial trouble, heading for bankruptcy and eviction.

    Interests

    My grandchildren, 3 boys ages 7, 2 and 20 months and i have a grandaughter on the way in about 6 weeks, i'm so proud of them all. I also have 2 cavalier king charles spaniels that i have rescued, they are so loving and just need loads of attention and a few walks a day to keep them happy.

    • Close Gambling Addiction & Recovery

      Treatments

      Distancing Working / Worked
      I have self excluded myself several times from local arcades etc. and it is helpful for 6 months but i still seem to find more places and online casinos, must now self exclude from online sites also. Have downloaded gamblock onto my pc this is great as this was my worst temptation as the sites are there 24/7, now i CAN'T play online!
    • Close Migraine Headaches

      I've been suffering with migraines since the age of 18 with attacks varying between 3 times a month to maybe 1 every 2 months. Im a very active person,always on the go but when these migraines come on im knocked completely off my feet, in bed and throwing up for at least half a day, sometimes longer and even when i feel better and get up i seem to be so weak for another day after. Suffering with migraines has made me nervous about travelling cos scared of an attack occuring whilst im out

      Treatments

      Aspirin Somewhat Helpful
      If i take them very early on in an attack sometimes they help the severity. No good if you wake up in the morning already suffering cos the aspirin just makes you sick
