I'm in big do do and thinking stupid exit plans. No worries. These are thoughts only. I'm not planning any action on these thoughts. I'm terrified that I'm going to end up homeless again. Any support would be very welcime @Faith-and-Hope@Teej@Appleblossom@Shaz51@Mazarita@Former-Member@Former-Member and anyone else who cares about me.
Dont know if this is a silly question or not .... but have you tried a range of different sleeping meds ? Does your pdoc know how much you’re not sleeping ?

Re: Trouble !
I've tried sleeping meds they either don't work or leave me feeling so awful and groggy that I can't parent or work. I haven't seen my psychiatrist. In 6 months he says I'm Ok Because I can keep my job. I haven't got another appt with him. I'm not even sure if I could get another appt with him now as pretty sure com health closed my file.

Re: Trouble !
Hi @Faith-and-Hope - yep, i have lots of sleep teas, chamomile, and different blends of chamomile, have tried the tetley sleep, which tastes nice but i havent found it relaxing, and I have tulsi tea (sleep) (best one, better than chamomile even i think) and usually have a pot of one of them next to me in the evenings. We got up early and did the food shopping, wasnt too crazy busy so it was ok. will be making cookies later so they're ready for santa tomorrow night.

Merry Christmas to everyone! Here's hoping you have an enjoyable day. This Chridtmas is not panning out well for me. I guess I'd better start wrapping up presents. Much love and peace to you all. 🌲
