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.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

thanks @Former-Member much appreciated

@Former-Member I just tagged you to the rough time thread..
pop seems to be ok at the moment though, had abit of a stress reaction but he went out with mums bf for a while and done something different so took him right out of what he was stressed about. hes forgotten about it now thankfully.
no improvement on the headaches though, I see my nurse and gp on Monday and im going to ask for tests and talk about the implant-it would be easier to say what it is but I think it classes as a medication so I cant 🤷‍♀️ but the last time I got 'I don't know'. my nurse is trained in sexual health so she should at least have some sort of idea! they are the only 2 things I can think of left to try out now.

Ha ha @Former-Member .. I know what you mean. I had no idea about the rappers or hip hoppers. At least I knew Queen, John Farnham, Delta Goodrum, Michael Buble, etc 😅

Hi @Former-Member Thanks for your kind offer.

Yes I would certainly join you for a Hot Choc.

Hopefully that will help to send you off to the Land of Nod (Zzzzz).

Sorry I'm late.

Several very sad phone calls, with a few of my brothers.

The loss of several beloved family pets, in just one week (it seems).

Oh really @Adge ? That is indeed very sad, and Im sorry to hear that.

A nice comforting hot choc is probably needed then. Not too late. I have time to gulp a hot choc down, before I head to bed. Yeah .. I know ... Its only 7.30pm over there in WA. And although its still early for me, I cannot keep my eyes open any longer.

So I will deliver a special hot choc and bid you good night.

Morning everyone ..... 👋☕️💕

I would like to welcome @KVD @Mermaid1 @Lish51014 ..... please come and meet some other carers, even if your circumstances that bring you here are very different from each other, the carer role has many similar features and challenges regardless. It helps you to realise, and feel, that you are not alone in those experiences, when we all walk along together with each other ..... there is comfort and understanding in community.
