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

Today has been okay thanks @Shaz51

I'm working every morning this week. I sort of wasted my afternoon. I went and bought some new jeans on sale from Suzanne Grae reduced from $50 to $18. I have been too thin all my life and the antipsychotics have caused me to be a little overweight.

So I ended up telling the shop assistant about how I have gained weight etc from being super thin, this seemed far too much information for her and she just smiled and nodded. I'm hoping there is enough food left over from yesterday so I don't need to cook.

I was supposed to help my older son with some maths but I'll just have to do it tomorrow.

I am grateful for the new jeans.

Now the big question is do I keep my old clothes or hand them on.

Hi @Angels333

I'm glad I kept my smaller clothing as I now can wear most of what I have once more. I've put the larger clothing away so that if I need it again I won't need to spend a fortune.

Hi @Angels333,

Keep the smaller clothing - I wish I kept mine.

& I almost cried telling a shopping assistant about how I had gained a lot of weight once!

Sorry, I can't be very present here at the moment... Thank you to the people who replied to my post...

I have a flu now, so I feel horrible physically & mentally - & I'm running out of tissues!!

Good health to all,

Namaste,

A

How you going @plasmo

I should be asleep. I felt so sleepy on the drive home from work to extent that I had to turn off the heater and open the windows. I froze but it did wake me up.

So here I am awake but not bouncing and I have to be up by 4.30! Oh well, when I get sleepy again I'll turn out the light.....
