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.

☕️

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All - I worked from home today as Ms M was super teary anxious and had a dodgy tummy not holding all food down at lunch - but managed ok by dinner ... she also pretty much slept all day - her new med combo is still early days and it’s hard to tell if the sleeping is depression or anxiety or meds settling or all of the above for fun ... I hate seeing her go Thru this and wish I could make it go away for her - I tried to remind her that she had to be patient for the new meds to work at least 6 weeks ... also she has actually started writing down her moods and energy levels each day in a book so she can report more accurately to psychiatrist - this will be great if she can keep it up ... I have public holiday tomorrow so can spend time with her then but worry for her when I go back to work on Wednesday - I just want to be there for her all the time ...

Med changes can be the pits ... enjoy your day off ... can I offer you a double shot macchiato to get you going this morning?

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I don't think I have ever placed a bet @outlander but have entered office sweeps. I have usually been the one to man the desk while everyone else watches the race.
