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 @Shaz51 - I went to watch Inferno. I liked it. Dan Brown always has controversial stories. Intense but good.

@Faith-and-Hope - that is the cutest cup of coffee!!! I hope you are feeling better especially given this weekend is a big day for you and your family right?! If you able go out to get some sunshine! I am staring out the window wishing I was lying under the sun reading my book.

Good morning everyone ....😊☕️

It's my D3's last day of high school ..... we made it ❣✅🌷💜

Next hurdle is the WACE - passing the entry requirements for uni ..... butcha know what ?? I only needed her to graduate .... if she doesn't get over the uni entry bar this year ..... not fussed ..... she can take it from here herself ... and take however long she wants to take, of that's what she even wants to do ❣

Thank you so much for riding these waves with me. Doesn't solve the WH issues by a long shot, but I have D3 sorted well enough that whatever happens now with WH, I'm not compromising her to stand by him ..... 😔

Gotta dash .... have a good day all ....

Just wanted to say a huge well done @Faith-and-Hope. Judging by the amount of support and problem-solving you've done, you should be graduating alongside your daughter! Must be a wonderful feeling to have got this far with all the hurdles you both faced.

Happy to serve you whatever drink or food you want when you get back. I'll even try to find a cool picture 🙂

Hello @Faith-and-Hope my friend --- CONGRATULATIONS

Hello @Former-Member,

how are you today ?

I am very tired today , had a very busy day yesterday and then I woke up at 2 am and could not go back to sleep until 4-30am and then got up at 6am

In response to: Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hey @Shaz51, I'm tired too. Also sleeping badly. Long periods awake at night. I've started listening to audiobooks and podcasts to help me get back to sleep. Works sometimes. Particularly when they're a bit dull 🙂 I figure that eventually I'll get tired enough to sleep through.

What about you? What do you do when you're awake at night?
