Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Trend settting might be a better description @Faith-and-Hope

Horseshoe bickies, they look very arty @Smc

Yes please, they're tasty too (no doubt)...

Very nice fancy Boots @Former-Member Can you really wear those?

Maybe slightly painful, as someone suggested...

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hello @Faith-and-Hope and fellow carers. Just wanted to say hi as I am new to this forum. I've joined this forum as I don't know anyone in a similar situation. I am from Perth. I look after my mum who suffers with physical and mental illnesses. I too suffer with rheumatoid arthritis, depression and anxiety. I've noticed over the past couple of weeks I have really been struggling as my mother's depression has paid her a visit, and mine hasn't been a stranger either! I hope I am posting this in the right forum - sorry if I'm not 😕 Is there anyone in a simliar situation, ie caring for someone but also battling their own demons? Wanting to reach out to others as there are times I feel alone and just need some support. And I am here for support others too. Thanks for reading ... hope to chat to some of you soon 🙂
