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 haha thankyou for understanding regarding the Bam Bam errr problem 🙂 He's nice enough but.... well... you know 😄

and no... sadly not a lot of rain around and yes I too love sleeping when it's raing.. just very dark and a few spits of rain here and there where I am. Would love to see some rain probably is raining in other parts of the city I suspect. 🙂

@Faith-and-Hope, I didn't know anything about metabolic syndrome, so I've done a bit of online research... I should say "thanks for the heads up", because I'm tracking a few of the risk factors.

I've certainly got the cumulative stress events, most definitely depressed, I have a bit more weight around the midriff than I should (not helped by hitting menopause; I'm a bit on the early side of the age range, late 40's), not really getting enough exercise, and there's a family history of diabetes. On the plusses, I don't smoke, drink alcohol very occasionally, and because of my diabetes risk, I get a checkup once every two years for glucose tolerance, HDL/LDL cholesterol, and a few other general health markers, and all have come back in the healthy range so far. Bleahhh... I really need to get that weight back down, so much easier said than done.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

BTW, should I post the metabolic syndrome study I found in the heath etc info thread… forgotten what it's titled as?
