Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member I'm so sorry that you are hurting. I don't know your story well, but know a little. I just read a little about your story now and am deeply sorry for your loss. If you want to chat about it, I'm here, but if not, I understand, whatever helps you.

Yes, my girl is a gift, I waited a very long time to have her. She's my only child. Would have loved more children, but time ran out.

I wish I knew what to say, to help you feel better.

Oh, it's awful having bad dreams. Sounds like a horrible one, that you had last night.

I used to have them often, but less often now, after lots of prayer counselling. Yes, some medications can cause them, I remember.

I hope you will be able to sleep better tonight.

Hoping it will help you to chat on here. Would be better in person, of course, but can't be so. I'd love to be there for you.

I'm sorry I don't even know how I posted that. I know you would be hurting but lovely to see your courage under fire @Former-Member. Stay strong and cuddle that beautiful pooch of yours. Sending hugs. 💐💜

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member. I sometimes find it hard too although for completely different reasons to you. I really struggle to feel love when I'm with my kids. I know I do but can't feel it, only anger and frustration and that hurts. I yearn to feel the good things again but hopefully one day will. Most of this stemmed from trying to detach from them when I was first suicidal. Anyway doom and gloom time over. I'm working on it. Yesterday I managed to hold a genuine conversation with one of mine for the first time in months. It felt like a small milestone. So being in hospital has seen one success. Anyway thought I'd share to say that sometimes we all get triggered in the most bizarre way 💜💐
For me I still love hearing about others stories regardless.

Hi @Former-Member and @TAB

@Former-Member @Decadianand @Faith-and-Hope

When I first started posting on this site I was one of the oldies. I tried to connect with a few others but they stopped posting as felt the site was for young people. Now I am glad there are a lot more people posting and so a lot more age groups covered. It give the forum a reallty good sense of a mixed community.

Now I am getting younger as there are a few older than me and its noce to be able to rest my head on a virtual shoulder. Not exactly sure about ages and it doesnt really matter ... but there is the old saying that there is no point teaching your grandma to suck eggs ... ??

Hi @Former-Member glad you found that silver lining in hospital ... about not all the alarms being your responsibility or your monkeys.

Sorry mixed metaphors but I hope you get what I mean.

I am ok .. coming good after a few big knock ... might try to sing tonight a little.

Coming off tranqs... little shakes but mostly ok.

Your joke made me laugh AB - "grandma sucking eggs" not gonna happen lol Good to hear you're coming off tranq. . most have a 48hr half life, drink lots a water.

My son tx me today. Was nice. He's OK. Pushing on.

Listening to gentle rain on my tin roof a.t.m. jut lovely.
