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.

Oh, way of base there, ta for understanding
Transgender, but not female or male? gosh! i'd have trouble with that one. Can you talk well together? Try understand? There's a lot in the media lately. She might come back. I can be a bit impatient about this issue, why people can't just be 'feminine male' or 'tomboys girls' but as your own you just love them i guess.

Goodnight @Faith-and-Hope Hi @plasmo

@Former-Member I'm not going to try to explain if that's the way you feel. I love my adult child and will support them to be whoever they evolve to be. Unconditionally. There is a lot more to living the situation than what is presented in main-stream media. Yes we do talk well, all the time, and they have sent me many links to educational reading material on the topic. In that discussion about resilience in the face of discrimination the other night I said a bit about it too. They are happily married, have a child and are an amazing parent doing good works in the world both as a volunteer and professional.
