Night Shift

MazaritaSenior Contributor23 Sept 2015, 4:13 am AEST

Night Shift

Since I am awake at 4am I thought I'd start this thread for those of us who have trouble sleeping and might find it helpful to have a place to go to chat. Whatever gets you through the night is alright.

To get the ball rolling, I'll just say that I enjoyed being part of the Topic Tuesday discussion tonight. I wish it was possible for these events to be weekly rather than monthly. Either way, thanks SANE and all the people I've met on here over recent months.

Edited June 2016 and February 2017: Night Shift is now open 24 hours a day. To join in, just click through to the last page of the thread at the top right of this post to get to the latest message.

Edited April 2017 and June 2017: For the sake of better communications between members here, I am adding that this thread is meant to be a caring, kind and gentle place of sharing. Humour is welcome, as long as its not unkindly directed towards other members. Hope your time in this chat thread is rewarding.

Re: Night Shift

Guessing here .... some of the images may have been considered as potential triggers ..... mods are likely to be bound by regulations ....

Re: Night Shift

I guess @Faith-and-Hope. I've been thinking there was possibly 2 that came to mind. I'm not angry would have just been nice to get an explanation. Ok just got an explanation and I didn't realise the ad clip had violence before the one I posted and yes there was one image that could have been triggering which was highlighted. Lucky no harm done💜😊

Re: Night Shift

@Faith-and-Hope I'm guessing you know why I tagged @Mazarita (now 3 times😜) -because of the artistry of the video as much as the content. I hope your and @Former-Member day going well. I'm trying to get my backside moving, not as slow as some days but brain a little bit foggy. Beautiful day here. I hope your day is good💜😊

Re: Night Shift

Yes, beautiful imagery that's what I saw too. Took me back! Um, yes a better one. In all honesty I'm glad it's Friday. I got myself tangled up in knots this week too! @Former-Member

Re: Night Shift

Thanks @Former-Member. I was really drawn to the imagery and musician it. It was very powerful but I guess just a little too powerful for here in parts but I'm glad you both liked it too. there is always next week @Former-Member. Take care💜😊
