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.

Hi @Bella1978. Yes, you're welcome to chat here. Sadly, it's not too unusual for carers to get burnt out and end up struggling with depression and/or anxiety. (And I put my hand up.....) Mosaic is a lovely artform. If you look around the threads there's an art one that a few of us share bits and pieces on- either our own work or other people's work that we like. (Brain's gone blank- what's the thread called again, peoples?)

@Determined, maybe you can vigorously exercise your imagination. Have you ever wanted to be a Pirate King, for example?

@Faith-and-Hope You may be able to relate to this kids' book that ours read some years ago. What happens when well meaning grandkids grab the blue food colouring to give Grandma's hair a revamp while she's nanna-napping...
