Bit too much info? ;)

Had to come off the contraceptive pill again as the migraines were getting frequent and really painful. So much so that my hand went numb on three occasions and I couldn't get out of bed. I've stopped taking it for the past two days and now I feel fantastic!

All my energy is back and no pains at all. No neck pain, back pain,  no numb hands or head and I just feel good! Don't think my already messed up hormones likes the added ones from contraceptive.

 And aura migraines are apparently a major cause of most women having strokes or aneurysms below 30. Scary stuff. 

So I'm not taking any chances with mine, I shall have a look at non-hormonal methods of contraception. 

Thought I'd write this here because it might help other people with the same problem.

So if you are on the pill AND smoke or getting aura migraines or numb limbs, don't risk it. Its not worth the health risks at all. 

Funny thing I saw on Facebook today...

Bloody Hell.

frightened myself to death this morning!

A bird squawked outside my window and woke me up so scared that I had a numb hand. then me being me, I thought I wad having a stroke and started an hour long, bloody awful panic attack!

bloody numb hand, gonna go to the doctors next week as recommended by a friend just to make sure it's not neurological...and maybe tell them to knock some sense in.

So tired of panic attacks. especially at half 6 in the morning. It has literally exhausted me. well you hyperventilate, having a racing heart and have adrenaline pump through your body for an hour whilst crapping yourself and see how great you feel! I can literally not clench a fist I'm that tired. So I'm gonna have another nap and hopefully the demon bird won't do it again xD

on a lighter subject: my dad hath given me a laptop so I now have a working spacebar ! Oh the joy!

Nik VS Migraine.

Woke up with the bloody thing again. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the aura that blinds me. It's so frustrating.

2 Cocodamols managed to get rid of it, though I've been like a zombie most of the day while Ben makes his tarp thingy (or whatever it's called xD)

Literally have had no energy whatsoever. Glad it's bed-time now, gonna carry on reading Stephen King's Cell. Which I highly recommend if you like survival horror books, very unique and freaky! Although don't read it before bed if you want to sleep at night, you will not be able to just read a chapter then go to bed!

Gamer notes: Been playing The Lost Crown for a few days now and I'm seriously enjoying it! Very freaky ghost-hunting point and click style game. You get to use ghost hunting equipment a lot and it's very enjoyable...little bit Grudge-style sometimes :D

But remember to keep a notebook with you if you're gonna play this game, you'll need it!!

Good afternoon people.

I just finished playing DarkFall: Lost Souls, a point and click adventure game. Think it's the 3rd of the DarkFall series (I came to this conclusion after seeing the massive '3' on the loading screens...).

And I just wanted to say that if you like point and click style games, that involve a lot of investigative work and puzzles, then this is a must play. Not only does it keep you thinking throughout the game but it's pretty scary too!

The atmosphere and noises you hear throughout the game are honestly scary. It kept me on my toes for the past few days. I can also guarantee you'll be stuck fast a few times. You really do have to think before you get past certain parts, earlier in the game more-so.

I'm not going to delve too much in to the story because I might spoil it for you, all I will say is that it takes place in the same abandoned town as the previous DarkFalls. And you play a very haunted and troubled investigator who, by fate or just unluckiness has somehow ended up back here, on the hunt for the little lost Amy.

I'm awfully sad I've finished it, it wasn't short but it was literally one of those games you never want to end!

Now...looking for my next game, which I think is going to be The Lost Crown. A ghost hunting game :D
