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.

Yes I think so, thanks @Former-Member I fell in a bit of a heap, after that....

There was a baby Bengalese finch bouncing around on the floor, that's always lovely to see.

Gee those mower men are so loud (across the road), & they keep going for about 4 hours every time (right now)...

@CatcakesYou sounded busy over on the DBT.Nobody has suggested I have BPD or that i should do DBT. I am the one that can self identify. I read it was an extra $30 per week and I dont have that spare. I prefer to put it into choirs which do not cost me that much. I do like that DBT is very comprehensive. Are you still doing it?

Dont respond if you cant. Dont be too down on yourself about choices. It sounded as if you were between a rock and a hard place.

Its the constancy and chaos of balancing many people that must wear you down.

I no longer have to deal with that, I am not well enough so it is just as well.
