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.

Brownies, yes please @Bella1978 Yum, yum...

Hi @Faith-and-Hope Yes living in a new (unknown) city can be very disconcerting.

I've lived in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide & Perth. It takes a long time to "find one's feet", & to know the way around...

@Shaz51 Oh, I hope your headache settles down. The cyclone sounds scary - was just reading about it online - sounds full on! Stay safe!!

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Our home is in your town @Bella1978, and I have two married kids there ..... three here in the opposite coast where we are now, but the youngest two of these going to uni.

I am a carer for a disabled daughter ..... I also have a hubby unwell with eating disordered behaviours and mh issues, but he has no insight into being unwell, and that has been somewhat hellish to live with. In turn the stresses and strains we are under have impacted our younger two kidults who are struggling with different presentations of anxiety and depression, amongst other things.

We will be swinging coast to coast between uni semesters ......

Good morning everyone.

Hi @Shaz51 Well I guess lots of rain is better than a cyclone...

The only we ever get lots of rain here (other than Winter) - is when there is a cyclone up north. That happened a few months ago.
