Night Shift

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

@TAB I know your Achilles heel is a bit the same as mine. It's ok, I saw you feeling backed into a corner then but you don't need to be on here. No one seems to want anything but good and people see good in you and want to help. But I do the same as you and start to justify, then I dig myself into a hole. It seems to me that you want something different for yourself. Don't worry about your past, it's just your past. Maybe it's just time to think about what you want in the future. You have decades to make the most of it. Think I should be saying this to me too. It's never too late to reinvent ourselves, one day at a time. take care @TAB 💜😊

I really hope that wasn't too personal @TAB. I may have got you wrong too. I'm not an expert in this, just go on my intuition. I only mean well💜😊

I have to be up in three hours to take my son to the airport so I'd better sign off. 💤😴

Think we'll call it even then @TAB but that was never my intention. Sometimes I think it's just better to work it out. I'm really sorry if I've hurt you. It was through a conversation we had the other week I learned this about me and although it hurt at the time I'm really grateful that I worked it out. It's helping me understand where I'm most vulnerable. It seems like you were well on your way to working it out too. Sending hugs 💜💜💜💐💐💐

Thanks @TAB

PS. To be vulnerable is to be human. Vulnerable isn't bad or weak, everyone has their own vulnerabilities. This I'm learning too.

I hope you have a good night. 💜😊
