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.

@Former-Member Early on when I was in a heavy yo yo effect mode, I joined a forum and felt it was keeping me "stuck" so I left it. There was no two sides to it, it was straight up only traumatic, and unmoderated so you can imagine some of the :pile_of_poo: that was on it.

So I definitely understand your thinking on that first bit. I think leave that thread behind and restart after you feel you have had enough recuperation time and rebuilt is a great idea.

I'm answering from here because I don't want you going into that thread you posted from 😄 in case you are wondering why. You take care and I will be happy when you come back. Footy starts soon ya know!! We should do tips 🙂

Hi @Shaz51 @Faith-and-Hope @Determined @Former-Member @Smc

Hope everyone is okay?

I am just feeling a little 'rattled', so thought I'd pop in to see if anybody was around. I'm about to make myself a nice hot chocolate, settle into that vacant corner over there, and maybe read a book for a while. Or maybe do some puzzles from the puzzle books I see on the coffee table. I dont really want to talk, I just need to know that there is someone around.
