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.

Hi @Former-Member. So sorry you are doing it tough. I really hope the court stuff goes well. I'll be thinking of you and the kids. Wishing you a good rest and some time to relax the routine a bit and catch up your energy before court. Sending hugs😊💜

Re: Night Shift

2nd night of pretty bad insomnia....

Thinking of cutting out caffeine in the afternoon, but need it to do my afternoon walk...Hmmm...

Got some melatonin but that stuff hardly works.

Maybe I'll start drinking alot of chamomile tea in the evening...

Anyone has any tricks or suggestions on how to get a nice deep nites sleep?

Re: Night Shift

Yeah .... cut the caffeine .... ❣

Can you have half a coffee before your afternoon walk @Tyler77, and see how that goes ?

And have chamomile tea before bed too ?

If that's an improvement, I would suggest making your half-coffee an hour earlier, and see if that improves things further ....

Re: Night Shift

Goodnight everyone. Not going good tonight. Feeling really cold and achy all over. Feeling destructive with no energy.
Hope you all get some quality sleep

When you get hold of Fisiocrem, try some on those aches ❣
