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

It has been a bit up and down really. Had a few really good days but today felt my anxiety running in overdrive (for no reason) so trying to just take it easy and go through it. Managed to vacuum and mop the house. How are you going? Hope your computer gets fixed !

Overthinking is mine , I tried to write things down

@LookingHopeful

Ups and downs here too , my husband has bipolar 2 and other diagnosis and has been sleeping lots for 2 days so far

Well you are coping extremely well @Shaz51

Writing down is a good way to get things off your mind, easier said than done for me though. I should write a little more.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Very true @LookingHopeful , it is harder sometimes than other times to keep writing things down

@Determined, will have to admit I'm having a bit of a "do nothing much" day. 🙂

We've got a surprisingly yummy cake to go with our cuppas at the moment- made from banana peels. If you didn't know, you'd probably guess sticky date cake with a touch of mashed banana.

Hello @Smc , @Determined , @Faith-and-Hope , @LookingHopeful , @Shaz51

Hi @Smc , your banana peel cake sounds interesting. I am always conscious of the amount of fibre that gets tossed out as peel as well as the cost by weight. If you have the recipe and would be happy to do so, would you mind posting it. It would also be a useful addition in the "Food and Beverage Choices for Improved Physical and Psychological Health" thread.

Thanks for The Idea and Best Wishes

@HenryX
