Today we talk to Ashleigh, who will be competing for the first time at the Galaxy UK finals in November. She shares her story about addiction with alcohol and how she overcame her addictions, alongside having OCD. Alcoholism is not something we have discussed so it's important to show that anyone can become alcohol dependant, it's not the simple case of cracking a drink in the morning or even having a drink every single day, it's when it becomes that crutch, where every occasion is a drinking occasion.

We are not experts on this subject, just sharing our experiences, please seek help with your doctor! There are many help pages and charities that can help including MIND who run programmes to help, as well as rehab facilities.
