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

Your welcome @utopia

I hear you @utopia . I tend to have a busy mind too, so I really get what you are saying. Is there anything that helps to ground you, and to turn down the volume a bit. I find exercise really helps with keeping the mind & body well. Its hard to keep up with all the threads at times especially when not sleeping well. What did you get up to today @utopia. I have been pretty good but I have few things I need to continue to work on. How have you been going @utopia ?
