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.

Just woken up. I've had a horrible dream. Can't get it out of my head. Was about my mum (had to stop typing had to let tears out) dying and lying in bed. My dad was outside mowing lawn. I know I've said I hate my mum but I love her too (more tears)

Dreams do have a way of striking at the heart of our problems.

Hi @Silenus

I'm up now and having breakfast, getting ready for work. I wish i could stay home in bed. It's pouring with rain down here and I don't want to face work today. But I have to, no choice.

I'm okay now, I think i just needed to release a few more tears. Dreams have meanings I believe but I don't know what this one means.

Oh well, I'm going to drink my cup of tea. Hope you have a nice day. Chat again later 🙂

Re: Night Shift

Thanks, @Silenus.

My nurse wants me to be on two shots instead of one, and I wonder how much good that would be.
