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.

Hello Ladies and thank you for welcoming me. I'm a bit techno-impaired but I keep trying as I stumble around the internet and forums because it's worth it!

Hi @Sissy88 - welcome!

Thanks all for the prayers. Really hope my colleague will be ok.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I am tired @Shaz51. Lack of sleep. Bit down as starting to really miss my partner today and it only been less than a couple weeks since he is gone. Just one of them days.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Had a cuppa, read a few of your posts.. Still struggling to feel comfortable with this style/format of communicating. Facebook and Game of War chatting are easier to navigate but the understanding isn't there. I'm a bit scared of how much I'm isolating at the moment. I don't want to do anything! Asher wants a walk or some play or to come inside, my 92 yr old Dad would love me to do some typing for him, anxiety expert hubby would love me to sit beside him and hold his hand. But me? I don't know who I am or what I want right now. I'm gonna force myself out the door to join a choir tonight. Down side is I can't chat here, when you're talking about burn out. I'll catch up later. You can all leave magic cure tips for me.
