Re: Sleeping too much
Some things are best left as they are unless they cause problems in present now @TAB..
Some things of my past have impacted me, that I changed unknowingly. I see pieces. It's hard when the things still happen but to accept, to respond, react differently.

Re: Sleeping too much
I try and do! @TAB...Sometimes too I think re educating others who expect me to react a certain way. If anything I get bored of their view...it was never right anyway. So I provide the right one by being and doing..if I make any sense. Whoa..how did we get onto such heavier convo!!

Re: Sleeping too much
..I think my part of it was memories snuck up on me in sleep, was interesting, did wonder in the moment, didn't get me anywhere, maybe there was a purpose to it, just not going to dwell on it @Former-Member

Re: Sleeping too much
👍 yep ...I think I know not much at times..but when I do know ..I know! And at best it's probably not much, and probably a lot. Who knows ?!!

Hi @TAB
Know what you mean about mainstream media and a shallow world. @Former-Member
Heavy convos ... oooops I'm in... lol.
@Former-Member Glad you got the phone call. You are right about the subtle pressure to attirubute not being well to a physical cause. I lost it once at church choir ... and said I was so stressed I couldnt afford to have a cold for decades ... they didnt get it .. and I just scared them ... but think they are trying to get it .. very slowly and on their terms .. will see what it is like when I go back for a couple of months up to Christmas.
I got so tired of being nice and empathising for everybody ... who had fixed ideas ... which included a hefty dose of stigma against Mental Illness. A teacher in the choir told me they cracked it all the time in the staff room ... so I figured they were all grown up enough to cope with me ... spitting the dummy occasionally.
For me the embarrassment of "losing it" and losing my composure in a public situation was dreadful .. but eventually I just faced it down .. cos they needed my voice. Still working on it. Some of them have come around a little.
On another tack, I went to a carers support group for the first time today but not sure it is going to ACTUALLY give me support. I did meet a Carer Consultant though .. so maybe that will help my get clear that I am doing the right thing by my son.
