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.

Haha @Spookytookims I didnt know that! Is chocolate an area of temptation @Determined? I could well look like that when licking the bowl with the cake batter...I love that! Does anyone else do that or am I the only one?

lol @Former-Member

chocolate is not usually a problem for me, just had a little timtam indulgence one evening a little while ago after the dr making a point of not accepting my denial of comfort eating. @Spookytookims was a little put out that I ate an entire packet by myself without sharing.

Haha I love that the timtam indulgence happened after the doctor made the point about comfort eating

If only the packet of timtams would magically refill itself when it was finished like on the tv commercial from years ago...then @Spookytookims wouldnt have to be put out because the packet is never ending

Milk Chocolate @Former-Member - Have such a sweet tooth.

@soul - will post pictures as I promised later. I tried to do it via my phone last night but it doesn't allow me. Have to do it from my laptop, so need to save my pics from my phone to my laptop.

Hi @Determined @Faith-and-Hope @Spookytookims @Former-Member @Shaz51 and anyone else I missed.

All the serenity I felt yesterday has disappeared overnight. Woke up so anxious once again with this limbo. My partner rang me Sunday and he was all good at first asking what's up. I asked what's up with him which he had a go at me, saying he said he is dealing with family issues and his friends and I say we care about him but obviously we don't because we asking him catch up etc. After I said calm down and hear me out. He said No and he is going to hang up. I tried calling multiple times subsequently and asked him to hear me out. He said talking is only going to make it worse. Then a sec later asked if he can call me later? Well he didn't call. Unsure what is going through his head and wonder if he was taking it out on me and felt bad for doing so. Unsure why he things talking, hearing me out will make it worse because the worse I can think of is that I break things off.
