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.

Happy new year everyone. I hope 2017 is good to you. It seems 2016 was a very eventful year, to say the least, for many! Take care of you. Xx🎉🎈🎶🎊💜

Happy belated New year everyone! Bit delayed I know. Yesterday was lazing in bed from a late night of karaoking to ring in the new year. Then went to winter wonderland at Marina Bay Sands and also did some shopping for presents for friends back home.

How is everyone? xx

Hi @Anony18 .....

I'm still feeling a bit punch-drunk from New Year, although I have been staying up late quite regularly, and had an after-midnight with my jigsaw puzzle the other night, chatting with forum friends along the way ..... skipped by true walk yesterday cos I was low energy so wanted to respect my body - got raised eyebrows from WH over that one, but hopefully it will eventually get through.

He is feeling so exhausted cos his ultra-exercise patterns have been sending him to bed early, and he doesn't sleep well .... then along came New Year which his family always stay up for .... and he is reeling but still running .... :face_with_rolling_eyes: ... sigh

We walked up the road, which has an incline, to a coffee bar with S2 and D3 last night, so that was good anyway, and gave me some exercise .... which I need if I'm gonna have a hot chocolate with it .... ❣

@Faith-and-Hope- you need listen to your body and relax when it needs to. Good thing you had a small bit of exercise though. We shall take positivity in these small things 😊 Definitely understand about needing exercise....i think will need some once get back. Doing alot of eating and not enough exercising. But one is on holiday so will try to indulge but not too much that I will have to work extra hard to lose a bit 😁

Welcome back @NikNik

Hello my friend @Shimmer

well it is tuesday today , very hot , we start work again on monday 9th , but we might have to go back tomorrow , hubby is having a not so good day , very anxious , flustered, worried , ect ect , doesn`t want to go back to work

yesterday I asked hubby if he is ok , if the meds were making him tired

he told me he stopped taking the meds , anti depressant and anti anxiety med

he told half a anxiety med last night

as for me , my mind to going overboard , overthinking

Prob still in his system so wouldn't be too bothered

have to see what happens

, have to let him work it out for himself i guess

it is a bit hard to leave it up to him , but i will try
