Needs it to function: Michelle has been downing pig's blood since she was a teenager, and now says she cannot be in a good mood without it
Preferences: Michelle likes pig's blood better than cow's blood. 'I prefer the gaminess, it's a little bit saltier than the beef blood,' she says
Nightcap: While most people might be disgusted by the idea, Michelle says it is in fact very similar to drinking wine - 'it definitely has the same ambiance,' she explains
Seriously addicted: She calculates has drunk a total of 1,000 gallons of blood since she first took up her habit ten years ago, which TLC notes is enough of the liquid to fill a bathtub 23 times
Watch: The season finale of My Strange Addiction featuring Michelle airs on TLC on Wednesday at 10/9c
