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

i keep looking at the plants and saying next week when new stock comes in. i;ve mostly got the bed ready, just stuck on other diy stuff. it's hard to change gears between them cos so much ruminating involved.

Re: Night Shift

yeah doing this new thing, maybe it's mindfulness, but i observe the situation and try and be more aware of it.

like when i'm trying to buy one thing at bunno's.. and someone ahead of me is buying 20 different door hinges and querying everything, so aware of it instead of thinking oh ffs

In response to: Re: Night Shift

Re: Night Shift

ah, I've had to do that as no other options really. just step back/dont buy into it and better off
