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.

Hmm I've found centrelink infuriating bin past to deal with. I believe it's designed that way.
Maybe site is a little glitchy today. I've noticed it too.
I'm feeling tired.
Hope I haven't said anything to upset if it be the case.
I don't like tired.😞
I think I need to pull back in life sometimes.
I start to get paranoid thought, 're.because of past.
Brain must be over driving. @TAB

Re: Night Shift

Hi all, @Former-Member

I feel like that we have a similarity. I have many panic attacks and can't sleep if I need to work. EVen writing for Sane Forums and getting skills to cope on sane forums also takes energy sometimes.

This audio cd really helped me. I havent had time to listen to it but I have organised for my support worker and me to sit in her car and for both of us to listen to it next Tuesday.

I urge all to at least check it out.....When I found it, my Psychotherpist even suggested others to use it. Jon Kabat Zinn's voice is great. His audio CD is brilliant

If you press

here

I have embedded it.

@Decadin

You are both so valuable here. I am so glad Ive met you Decadin.....so many little things come up about you....anthropology.....you have studied this....

Im writing a novel based on anglo saxon era...I just do not want to go back to univesity !!

Anyway....there you go, life goes on...Im very excited in what I have done for this book. I need to keep it as realistic as possible because it's a made up story in the anglo saxon era.....

It keeps my brain going but oh....I have so manmy other things to do.....I read books, hand sew a quit...I have spent the week that my husband was in hospital just sleeping.....

My mind is disorganised. I apologise. I will get back to you when Im back from the hospital .......
