Re: Sleeping too much

A cold is one thing I don't have @Decadian .... lol .... although WH has landed with one this morning ....

I hope there is a time when we can look back on all this and smile .... with WH fully recovered.... but at the moment it just means surviving the wonky moments, and trying to make the best of all the rest ....

Can't let this illness beat us, or steal any more joy than we can help.

🌷💜

Hi @Faith-and-Hope

I'm glad that at least you don't have a cold - but sorry WH has got something

It's that recycled air in the plane- not good

You are amazing - when I read your notes on life with WH and the Baby Dragons I feel I have so little to complain about

Hugs -

Dec

@Former-Member. Some days are hard. On those days it's enough just to breath. Showers, dressing etc can wait for another day. When you have more strength.
Today I'm sending you love and hugs.
Please be gentle with yourself

Thanks @utopia. I am trying to let it go and start tomorrow as a new day. My dog is draped across me crying because he wants some outside time. May have to try and at least throw the ball for him. He has made it all day until now on my bed with me without complaining. I hope your day has been good.

@Former-Member. All good today. The sun shone for most of the day. Waiting for next month though when the weather warms up more.
My three dogs are wanting a walk, but it's not going to happen today. Tired after gardening. And I wwon't let them on my bed. They all shed too much hair. It's bad enough on my clothes. I can't stand it on my blankets.
Do you have any therapy appointments coming up this week?
Maybe tonight you may want to dig into your Comfort Box

Re: Sleeping too much

I struggle with the dog hair on the bed @utopia. I would love him off my bed and me most of the time but I'm too inconsistent. One day maybe I'll sort it. Glad you got some gardening in. I think if perhaps I'll try to get out of pjs first. Think if I raided my comfort box right now I'd just scoff all the chocolates 😜 Time to put one foot forward I hope. 💜😊

Re: Sleeping too much

PS @utopia one of the reasons I mad is because I wasted my appointment yesterday rambling and needed her to pick me up that I was on a false high yesterday. She's great at so much other stuff but maybe I could do with a stronger hand sometimes with that part. Who knows maybe I wouldn't have dealt with it either.

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member. Bloody frustrating when we don't get what we need from our sessions. Sometimes I feel that way too. Wonder why he's talking about stuff that's not a problem. But my psychologist is always on the ball. He knows what I need. Half the time I don't. I do get frustrated when I leave and the next day, I'm just plain confused on what to do. Especially with new therapies.
I don't think you have wasted the whole session. You have learnt that you need to focus on what you need. Not ramble about other things. That's still a learning step. Write it down. Show him next week that you want to be pulled up for that - if you're not able to stop yourself.
I understand you're frustrated with yourself and with him. But I see positives in that. Next time it may be easier to focus on what's more important.
Please don't be hard on yourself. Just keep resting today. A bit of chocolate or some treat.
I bought Wagon Wheels today. Yummmmm.
