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.

That's a wonderful idea @Faith-and-Hope
Where do you buy them? Yes music is a universal language. J didn't speak much English and my knowledge oh his language was also quite limited but we were able to communicate so readily through our music. I am so blessed to have been able to work with him.
I'm really thrilled about your latest news about D3. Let's hope this therapist can help her move towards her future 💕👏

I should get some sleep so I can get to work later this morning and be on time for an early meeting.
Thanks for caring peeps. I shall go off to sleep thinking of J and his undying love for making mu5.
Good night all. 😪

@Former-Member

I will be up for a little while yet if you want to chat .... just winding down now ...

@Kurra

Spotlight might have them, or Riot ... or party supply shops, sometimes newsagents ....

There is a paper punch available that is a single musical note, if you like being crafty and wanted to make your own.

I have invested in a few of these bits and pieces, and in those scissors that create ornate edges on paper.

G'night @Kurra 🎧

Re: Night Shift

hi hope-and-faith

thanks for the offer to talk perhaps another nite- I'm on the East Coast and its almost 2.30am. Hopefully when my head hits the pillow I am able to fall asleep.

Re: Night Shift

Sorry I fell asleep @Faith-and-Hope . I am about to try and find some psychological help for my youngest as he told me last night that he was struggling with life and doesn't want to go back to school so I feel you and it's good to know it helps. It appears he may be struggling with depression from what he was describing😔Unfortunately I'll have to rely on the public system for him so it will take a few months to get him help but I think he needs it so we'll persevere.

Nice to see you around @Former-Member. Here's hoping you keep seeing an improvement. 💜😊
