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

@Appleblossom In my distress I didn't respond to your news earlier, congratulations for your son getting into the Bachelor of Music. That is wonderful. And welcome back!

@PeppiPatty I'm relieved I've heard from him. Yes I am anxious and sensitive. But this is very unusual behaviour from him.

@Former-Member I've been distracting here on the forum, listening to music, having a shower (finally), doing the dishes.

What a weird night. A couple are yelling and swearing at each other loudly next door.

Thanks @Former-Member & @Mazarita....

I enjoy Offspring & it is helping a little, but not as much as usual.

I feel overwhelmed...

But I don't know how to feel safe here anymore...

I might have to take a break...

Sorry

Re: Night Shift

@PeppiPatty and @Former-Member, sorry, i think i should butt out. you're right: i don't know you all that well yet (nb. the ego has landed! 😞 ). i don't want to intrude if i'm not being helpful. my advice is the usual - if you're really feeling bad, call Lifeline (13 11 14). god bless x

Re: Night Shift

had a lovely dinner and saw a show. very nice, thank you. the article is ok but it needs to be re-written and it's also not pitched right for the target market. i'll work on it again tomorrow.
