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.

Hi @Shaz51

I've missed you too but I needed to get my son to work really early in the morning and it was hard plus I've upped my work so can see my Psychotherapist and

I can't work very well anymore. I find it very difficult to get there and the only thing thats getting me through is knowing of the pig picture of seeing my Psychotherapist on 31 May.

Shes had an annerism when we first met each other and 2-3 years of breast cancer too. I've seen her for over 13 years.....

Also, @Shaz51 can you think of doing this too??

I want to do something I really want to do

That is; Start up some scrap books of pictures I like.

Would you do this too??

My mum and mother inlaw have been trying to get me to do things like gardening , reading , doing things for other people

yours is a good idea xx

Re: Night Shift

Maybe, we just need to get down to basics?

@Shaz51 we are never going to be picked to go on one of those renovating programs so lets......if we can.......start upo our own scrapbooks?

I like simple and junk shop look. I like ......um......just a tic, I'lle find a picture

Hi @Shaz51

Sorry to hear that your husband is struggling so much that he's willing to get back into the mental health system... hopefully it will help him this time. How are you coping with it all? hope you're ok

@eth Im glad you've had a good birthday, you deserve many more good ones where you are recognised and valued,
