Re: Sleeping too much

Hey, I tried the 'beyond blue' chat last night. And lifeline chat last week. The time lag is anoying and hate it when they don't know the difference between SI & imminent suicide, even on the phone (especially when I don't know how close I am grr), but think talking is more helpful.

Hi everybody 😊

@Former-Member ..... thanks for spelling it out ..... I sorta got the drift that you tend to see it all in the same colour when you're not in a good space, but hoped it would help you to see how I pull things apart to deal with them .... glad your team know how to ground you when that's happening. I dont think you're alone in that, not by a long shot, but your responses to it might be more extreme at this stage of your recovery, is all ....

Shout out to @Decadian @Former-Member ....

Hugs @Former-Member ..... haven't got through all my back posts yet to see how everybody is.

🌷💜

Re: Sleeping too much

It's good you tried lifeline chat @Former-Member. The thing that has helped me in the past is that I have to think to type and if I'm really distressed that typing action helps to distract, gives me something I have to concentrate on and gives my hands something to do. The lag time is frustrating though. They have sent the police before though when I had admitted to SH. That night didn't go well. I've also run away when they told me they were sending the police. Not cool on my behalf. I know what you mean that you don't know how close you are. I always get frustrated because you wouldn't contact them if you were in control. I hope things get easier and more peaceful for you soon.

@Shaz51 My dog is a hyped up kelpie x (probably x border collie). He is my shadow but is in need of letting off steam. With this weather I'm scared of taking him to the big native bush park across the road during the heat of the day as it's baby snake season and the grass is all really high and overgrown. I'll take him soon.

@Faith-and-Hope I wasn't sure if you understood or not. You are right though when I'm emotionally stable I'm much better at sorting everything out although even then I still often need help but I just don't get so strung out about it. I hope your day has been good.

@Former-Member..omg yes looks daunting indeed, but I hope to find quiet moment later to start on paperwork.
It's funny I find your posts really thoughtful too. And much insight in all you share. 😘

@TAB..remind me! Who was Robinson Curoso again? His heroic for which cause/s? Or was he just some over glorified he-man?!! Lol 😅
