Re: Sleeping too much

@Appleblossom, my mother was a nurse assistant & pushed me into nursing (i never had a voice), I did want to 'help people' & nurses quarters got me out of home. I've since learned my personality doesn't suit the hierarchy structure of hospitals & medical system. Even yhough my parents were not affectionate or kind, they did have a caring side, they just flipped to the opposite often, especially mother, never knew what we were waking up to, waiting for us after school or behind the door. But maybe my higher self needed to explore caring for people with integrity..... Is that what you mean? How are you & yours this week?

Re: Sleeping too much

Yes @Former-Member caring with integrity is the way to go ... remember how I said I was jealous .. well it wasnt huge .. just a manner of saying that I wished i knew all the practical stuff about humans. I just see it coming out in your posting.

Sorry you never had a voice either. It was the typical thing they pushed lots of young women into .. I guess ... anyway ... you made it work a bit for you.

I get the flipflop .. thing in many Aussie battler type of families. Goes with the footwear ... people tried but they were burdened by how hard life had been before ....it really is a tough land to survive in... thats why I like the new OZlit that is coming out .. I can no longer hate my fellow countrymen .. hate doesnt help anyone ...

Then I thought we had similar levels of dysfunction in our families ...I knew my choices have been trying to understand ..

I assumed you chose .. but just really finding a way to open conversation rather limit it ...

Re: Sleeping too much

All @good @Appleblossom, nice to talk chat with you , like your intellect, and willingness to give. Thanks for pointing out that I have some good to offer here on the forums at least. I try. But mood & health have been swinging hard lately. Not sure who I am sometimes. There is a freedom being anonymous.

G O O D. M O R N I N G !! Beautiful fresh sunny morning here after the rain. Birds are happy & there's activity in the street. My back isn't hurting, all is well. Mother just sent a tx, tried to bate me about bin night tonight & how dads still sore from his fall last week & how I'm 'wrong' thinking the boys don't help...( Go figure), and its bin night tonight, BUT I didn't get sucked in. Did your 'polite' thing @Faith-and-Hope.

Have to share a funny I round when I googled "rain jokes" the other day, to cheer me up. This one still cracks me up for some reason. It was a picture of a yellow roadsign with the words
"CAUTION, WATER ON ROAD DURING RAIN"

Hi @Former-Member

I hope you have a really nice day today. Sounds like the morning has started off beautiful with the sunshine and birds singing. Here it is cold and a bit windy, but no rain. Good on you for not getting 'sucked in' to your mother's bate. Your mum sounds exactly like my mum. Great to hear your back isn't hurting.

Take care 🙂 xxxooo

Hi @BlueBay, long time no see. How you holding up? Thanks for your encouragement, I know you understand the mum thing. All we can do is zoom in on the good things in our own life more than the bad. It's exhausting with depression but we're not alone. Higz to you, thanks again 🙂

@Former-Member

Some days are just so much harder with the 'mum thing'.

I'm struggling at the moment with change of meds again, but today is another day and i am going to keep focussed.

chat to you later. xxxoo
