Re: Sleeping too much
Good night @Former-Member @Former-Member
Sleep well .... I will be thinking of you both tomorrow .....
@Former-Member @Former-Member
When the threads are running fast I often just let them go .... then come back later when it suits me and pick up just one thread .... reading back through from roughly where I left off .... a bit like when you're reading a novel, put it down for a few weeks, then have to put yourself back into the story when you pick it up to read it again ....
When I'm ready I pick up another thread and do the same .... often just leaving a 'like' here and there, cos some comments are a bit lost in terms of responding by then, but you still can if you want to ....
I like how @Appleblossom wanders through late at night, in her own time, and I wake up to her 'likes' and messages ..... Hi Apple ❣😏

Waiting for a centipedes shoes to fall must be a cascade from Hades - it takes that long .....
Yep .... I reckon that's a pretty apt description right there ....
Correct me if I am wrong but are you waiting until your WH reaches a state of coherence that will help him to understand his lack of insight into all of this
Yes
Is the food and exercise regime that bad it could cause him to have health problems
Yes
Oh my - this is really hard for you - how does a family cope with all of this - oh boy
It's been a J-curve, that's for sure .... we've got our balance pretty much at the moment by pacifying and concentrating on the day at hand .... but it often goes wobbly for a few days and balls get dropped .... bandaid solutions are all we've got till the awakening occurs, or something breaks.
You are on my prayer list
Appreciated more than I can tell you ....

Re: Sleeping too much
I so understand @Appleblossom
In fact I think my eyes are going around in circles - ah ha yes - the wheels are spinning - you are right
My mother lived with her mother until she married - then a few years later Gran moved in with us - Mum was co-dependent - on her mother, my father and my sister - oh hell - and it was all about HER - I so get that
It was strange - but it was always about THEM or HER - and had learned a long time ago it was pointless making any kind of issue
This is strange - it seemed no one ever noticed this was strange -
I was certainly hurt about all this toxicity - I don't understand it at all and wonder how I escaped being like them

Re: Sleeping too much
They usually have strong influence on their children.
As you describe they deny their own crap & put upon those around them a holier than thou moral code.
Usually good manipulators too because of their role.
I woke with strong sense of injustice today.
It hits me every now & then.
We can't take back years of our lives.
I hope today is gentle & kind to you. ❤

Re: Sleeping too much
@Appleblossom, @Former-Member, @Decadian, I struggle with this too, finding my place in the world without ever realy how to in my family of origin. That toxic dysfunction sure made a mess of who we are, left us with broken tools to work with. As I write this just now the words "you must be born again" come to mind. We really do need to transform our heart, mind and habits, from a basis of love. I've adopted Nature & God as as my new family of origin, receiving the love there, feeling a part of and practising self compassion they search me. How can I get to 50 and not know this). Then the world becomes less frightening, and I'm not in need of their approval. It's a work in progress, something I'm determined to learn & be rested with before heaven. Just sharing.
@Former-Member, @Faith-and-Hope, thanks for the call out. Just jump in wherever on the threads, hope we don't make fool of myself. (eg a be contributed this week suggested i see my Dr about my sleeping too much as it might be depression). There's so much history with each person, taking me forever to remember what goes where, risky business lol. Nice to see you here.
@Former-Member, @Former-Member, let's have that cuppa. Maybe walk on the beach together. Hope ya doing OK.
Oh God forgive me for being so lazy & help me change, i need a scoop out of bed. Better do that. But So nice to wake up to you guys here, even the ones I forgot to mention. Pretending your with me for a cuppa will be nice, maybe a walk - Looks like a lovely day outside 🙂
