About Me
I live with my cats Tiggy & Piper, and my son who is almost 13 lives with my Mum, as I had a problem with drugs in the past. And I am not well enough to look after him most of the time I don't work due to illness and disabilty, and for the same reason I don't get out much. I am a fun person and enjoy life, I am a very warm and giving person, and am a loyal friend. I love doing arts and crafts, I paint, and make my own cards, which I really enjoy.

Close Hepatitis C
I was diagnosed with Hep C about 2 years ago. I got clean from drugs&got tested for everything then, but I must have had a false negative result; I kept feeling ill all the time, so my Dr, did blood tests, and they found the Hep C, so it was a shock, as I thought I was ok! I had my first liver biopsy a few weeks ago, and just got the results this week&told I should try treatment, but I'm scared as I've had bad mental health problems in the past&don't know wether to risk trying the treatment!
Close Eating Disorders
I don't really want to admit to it, but I am a compulsive eater. I have struggled with myself for many years over this, when I was young i used to binge, and then use laxatives. However when I became pregnant at 18, I stopped the laxatives, but carried on with the binging. Naturally I piled weight on&got very big. Then I had a problem with drugs,&was a heroin addict&went down to a size 8, scince I got clean though I have started binging again, and am now at about 30 stone&hate myself for it!
Treatments
- Prozac Not Working
- I was on this some time ago now, and it didn't make me feel any different, I still binged the same while I was onit.
Open Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
I've got hepatitis c which my dr thinks is causing my CFS. I have trouble sleeping at times, I'll wake up really early in the morning like 4& be really tired but unable to get back to sleep, then there are times when I can't stay awake no matter how much sleep I've had. I get terrible headaches, and have various aches&pains that I can never seem to find a cause for, but don't know if this is related to CFS? I live alone&often haven't the energy to cook for myself, let alone do housework!
Open Endometriosis
I started my periods at 12,&was in&out of hospital from age 14, having all kinds of tests done, they didn't find outit was endo until I was 20&told me I couldn't have anymore kids naturally(luckily I had a son at 18). I had a hysterectomy last year,but they left my ovaries, I still know from pain when I would have been on a period!
Treatments
- Mirena Not Working
- I had this a while ago, and it didn't help me, I ended up with pelvic inflammatory disease on top of the endo because of it, (even though they say it can't cause infection?!)&had to be on IV antibiotics every couple of weeks for months to cure it!
- Zoladex Not Working
- Didn't stop my periods, I bled all the time on it, and yet had symptoms of the menopause?!
- Hysterectomy Somewhat Helpful
- Has helped in the respect that I don't actually have a period, so don't have all that pain, but still get worse pain in my leg,my remaining ovary, kidneys, and I get nose bleeds when I would have been on my period.
Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ParentI lost my Dad, four years ago. He was only 50, had a heart attack at the start of the year when he was only 49, had a triple heart bypass, was in a coma for 6 weeks,turned 50 in the May eventually had a defiblirator/pacepaker fitted in the September, and died 9th October 2003. It was a real shock to me,as I didn't know he was ill, as I was using drugs at the time, homeless and out of touch with my family. I am still not over his loss.
Treatments
- Crying Somewhat Helpful
- Just have ot let it out from time to time
- Music Working / Worked
- Helps start the crying!!
- Pets Working / Worked
- My cat Tiggy really helps, I can talk to her when I have no-one else to talk to, and I truly believe my Dad sent her for me.
- Remembering Working / Worked
- Remembering the good things, and good times, and what kind of person my Dad was, makes me feel happier.
Open Military Families
My Dad was in the RAF, and went away from home frequently, and we moved a lot too. I had a lot of problems from being young to the present day, some of which my old drug counsellor thinks was caused by this chaotic lifestyle we had. My Dad had to go to the Falklands for 6 months when I was 8, and I tried to strangle myself with my cardigan at school because I couldn't stand him being away from me, I only felt safe when he was around. I enjoy living like that.
Open Migraine Headaches
I suffer from bad migraines, a lot of the time they seem to be affected by my hormones. They are very debilitating when I get them, all I can do is lay down, in the dark and quiet, with a cold flannel over my eyes, and not move - sometimes for days!
Treatments
- Tramadol Working / Worked
- They relax me a little bit, but don't really help with the pain a great deal.
Open Schizophrenia
I was diagnosed as having paranoid schizophrenia about four years ago, after years of being told it was just depression, and been put on anti-depressants that did no good. I saw a proffessor who was fantastic, after I'd had a phsycotic episode, and had to be an inpatient in the phsyciatric ward. I'm now on Seroquel that have been fantastic, I am the most together I have ever been
Treatments
- Pets Working / Worked
- My cat Tiggy helps me enormousley, she cheers me up just jumping up for a storke, and how happy she is when I wake up in the morning lol!
- Seroquel Working / Worked
- I have put a lot of weight on, and get swelling of my feet and ankles, but the good they have done outweighs these negative things!
Open Phobia
Type: Dental PhobiaScared to little bits of spiders, and dentists, not sure which is the worst - whichever I'm facing at that moment in time I think!
