Night Shift

MazaritaSenior Contributor23 Sept 2015, 4:13 am AEST

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

Hi everyone

@Jacques It's nice to see you 🙂 you've had a really long few weeks, and I really hope that things get easier for you soon.

@Mazarita - really hope that your trip does help you with finding a bit more of that energy and that not toooo much patience is needed around the people you are visiting 🙂 will be sending positive energy your way.

@Former-Member - Hugs, maybe you need to release some of that frustration 😞 perhaps a kickboxing class instead of yoga? just jokes! Hope you feel better soon though

@Shaz51 I really hope that your afternoon went ok and that hubby is feeling ok this afternoon too, triggers can be so hard to manage especially when they come as ashock out of nowhere unexpectedly, as is most often the case. Hope you have some time for caring for you this afternoon/evening too.

@PeppiPatty How are you going? hope things are going ok with your son and hubby too, things have been so hectic for you all. hugs!

@Appleblossom - so glad to hear that your legs are swinging out of bed 😄 and at any time that you are happy to approve of 😄
