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.

Thanks @Tufftimes @Shaz51 @Former-Member

Bad news hurts so much, and I seem to have had so much of it lately. It builds up, takes a toll. You feel like 'why even bother, why not just give up?' Unfortunately this news wont go away, nor will all the other stuff going on with husband and mother.

😢😢😡😡😭😭

Thinking of you.
Hang in there, we are all here for you, and yep, I did that for 2 weeks, just necessities and laid around, gave up, then joined the group, and had 3 great days since joining. You will make it through the fog and out the other side too, your way, in your time. Just remember you, and do something for you every day, no matter how small of brief. Hugs xx

Morning all,

Quick check in while I sit with a coffee, have been up early going over notes for an exam this morning. on a positive note I actually woke early with a clear head, just hoping that clear head hangs around until after 11 especially after the 5am start

🙂 All the best with your exam @Determined.

Make sure you're giving your brain some rest time too. Favourite music on the trip in or something. It's possible to overstudy on the day of an exam and as a result end up mentally overtired in the exam. Been there done that. 😛

Thanks all, Finished with the study now.

Nice hot shower to relax and riding the bike in 🙂

Rather than the direct route (2km) will take the scenic route (7+ km)

Added bonus of leaving a little earlier... Little man is up after sleeping in and singing his very high pitched happy tune, time to go and give my ears a rest lol.
