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

@Faith-and-Hope,

thanks for asking.... it's nothing bad - I had a good day. Just thinking and thinking... a habit I developed years ago ... I'd wake up in the middle of the night and start thinking about stuff. I thought I'd got over this habit! I actually went to bed at 10 pm and went straight to sleep. Now I'm tossing and turning.

I'm getting together a community arts project and even though it's been great, I do feel some stress. I'm a bit of a stress head.

are you guys always awake at this time?

Not usually these days @Sahara ..... just been working on a beading project tonight ..... but it has been a roller-coaster week (events) leaving me a bit rattled ..... when that happens I usually find some peace of mind when the rest of the household is asleep .... aka now .... 😏
