My Name is Deborah and I'm addicted to Tea Lights

Please - if anyone knows of a self help group or they could possibly provide some support for our dear sister and sister n law - we would really like you to get in touch - our situation is DESPARATE

This problem often goes undiagnosed for years and only emerges at garden parties and in many cases it can be very serious. If you are at a garden party and are (a) struggling to breath for lack of oxygen and (b) the bushes around you seem to be on fire, (c) the light seems incredibly bright for that time of evening - you should immediately confront your host.

Tell tales signs:-

• Vast amounts of time spent in IKEA candle section
• Lots of little spent circular foil holders in the bin
• Vast sums of money being spent on Tea Light Holders
• Lack of normal coversation that didn't include the words 'Tea Light'
• Burnt/Black Fingers
• Lengthy times in garden but no real gardening being done

If you believe you have an addict in your midst - On NO Account Should You

• Allow them to buy matches
• Buy them Tea Lights of any form (inlcudes candles and most dangeously - oil burners!!)
• Give them gifts of any combustable material
• Suggest having a garden party.
