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 @Bunniekins I spotted you.

Would you like to come & have a hot choc, & sit & admire the view too?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Adge I would love to sit and admire the view Adge. My poor mother gets so worried about me walking in the early morning but I keep telling her it is one of the safest walks you can do where I live as there is constant traffic and 99% of it is lit up. The bay is more beautiful in the early morning with the lights on it than during the day.

Woo, you get to walk along the bay @Bunniekins Now you've got me interested...

I used to do walks in the early morning (5am) - that's a long time ago (25 years).

@Adge I go at 5am too. It is beautiful and quiet although I go where there is traffic so that it is not isolated. Best time of the day :). When you are better would you start up again?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

My daily fatigue has been too debilitating for years @Bunniekins To be functional early morning.

Yes I'm up at that time, but bumbling around bleary-eyed & crawling into the shower, is the best I can manage (most mornings).

I've been on stimulant medication for the Sleep Apnea, for 12 years - yet that only improves my alertness marginally.

Hi @Shaz51 Yes we're getting there, slowly.

Baby steps, they say...

Thanks for your encouragement.

Hi all... sorry about not keeping up with replying to all the tags... I've been struggling to get through everyday... life and the elements are always playing havoc with my mental status...

There's no stopping this journey of life we're all on... no matter what the problems someone is dealing with... it just goes on... sometimes i think i got it all sorted and other times... i couldn't be further from the truth...
