Re: Sleeping too much

My sister didn't even come to my daughter's funeral...my dad died three months before and she said she couldn't do another funeral so soon. But we had an argument via Facebook in which I called her on things I would normally have let slide...she said some pretty horrible things (especially considering I had just lost my daughter). Strange how devastating loss allowed me to be honest and say what I thought. I am closer to my friends than I have ever been to her. I don't care if I never see her again (highly likely) At least now I don't have to be polite and silently put up with things to keep the peace. I like genuine, authentic relationships. We don't choose our family so we're stuck with what we get.

@Misty1. No we don't choose our family - but we can choose not to have a family member in our life - if that is what is best for us.
And we do choose our friends. If you choose wisely - they become your family.

Re: Sleeping too much

Hi @Former-Member Thanks for thinking of me.

Good on you for sticking with the walking despite how you feel. Eventually you will feel better, if you hang in there. Walking is good for many reasons, helps produce brain chemicals, it will eventually help lower your cholestorol as well, good for overall health.

You have so many sad memories. Sending you a big hug. xoxo

I too have toxic siblings. I have chosen not to have them in my life. It's just not worth it, too draining emotionally.

I noticed your message in the Beer Garden @TAB You must be so relieved to have the _oot canal finished. It's an awful procedure to have done. Sounds like you are feelig a bit better today, that's good.

Thinking of you @Faith-and-Hope I hope that you are resting and looking after yourself. You've been through alot lately and need to take care of yourself. Great news about your daughter passing her TAFE certificate. I'll bet your looking forward to going on your holiday, sounds lovely.

Hello to @utopia @Decadian and hello to @Misty1 I haven't met you yet Misty. Nice to meet you.

Hello to anyone else on here.

@Former-Member Are you ok? I hope that you are. It's not like you to be so quiet. You must not be feeling well. I hope you feel better soon. Rest up, you must need it. xo

Re: Sleeping too much

Oh bummer, _oot canal not finished. @TAB

The same thing happened to me when I had mine done years ago. The kept on having to work on the tooth, to make sure there wasn't any infection left in there. Not sure I'd do it again.

Back on later. Just watching something.

Re: Sleeping too much

Hi @Shaz51 I've been struggling every day lately. Been trying to work on things differently.

Acknowledge bad feelings/thoughts and let them pass. And trying to spend time on mindfullness.

Anyway, how are you Shaz? I'll be back on here later. Sorry. xo

Re: Sleeping too much

Interesting that you mention difficult siblings @Former-Member - I've just been chatting to @Wolfies here about her challenges with her sister. She is wanting to develop more coping strategies - maybe you or others would like to read her thread and offer some suggestions?
