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

It can feel like that sometimes @Former-Member, but I think you will find its okay. It's normal for things to fluctuate a bit, and as @Appleblossom said, sometimes it takes a little while for things to settle into their rightful place.

It is part of caring and sharing, and happens in all arenas in life. Just keep giving out beautiful thoughts and friendship, and that is what will keep coming back to you.

You're a sweet heart. It shows 🌸

Goodnight @Former-Member and @eth How are you lj and faith and hope. Lj At first on accesses I just cleaned and rested and caught up on things, but later I started to plan activities for myself. Distracting is part of the solution ... Did they like the roast F&H?

Re: Night Shift

Yeah @Appleblossom they did like the roast.

That and Spaghetti Bolognaise are the best comfort foods around here 😊

Hi everyone, not sure if anyone's mentioned it @Former-Member but you can deal with forum issues behind the scenes by emailing the mods direct. They'll remove your posts if you ask too.
Sleep well tonight everyone 🌙�🌻

Re: Night Shift

Hi everyone
Just taken some sleeping tablets. Had a huge meltdown sobbing. All hubby could say was ssh. Told him let me cry if I want to cry. Tears just coming out.
Feeling dazed exhausted. Not with it.

Re: Night Shift

You need to sleep now @BlueBay It's okay to cry yourself to sleep. Sometimes it's just what your body needs when you're really upset.

Take care ❤️

Re: Night Shift

sorry @BlueBay sounds really hard right now. i keep getting told to let tears out and listen to the messages my body/brain is sending me. hopefully after youve let it out you will sleep ok
