Re: Sleeping too much
Looks lovely @Faith-and-Hope same but different
@Former-Member I'm a March bub like you, thought I shouldnt be too specific .. re anonymity etc.
Maybe a few of us are feeling we spend too much time on here ... certainly nothing to do with you. I really appreciated you went looking for me and gave me that bear hug.
I dont want to stop being on the forum, but trying to limit time, thats all.
Was feeling pressured to prepare for a competition but my son has decided to relax on that ...
so phew .. I can relax too.
I had a lovely sing tonight and saw my psych before. I think she is only beginning to get how poor my self esteem has been and how deep and persistent the SI. I am bit more secure with her as the Royal Commission granted me 12 more sessions.
I realised that in tonight's choir there are 4 basses I know from the first chamber choir I was asked to leave .. they left voluntarily for different reasons, but they are still in my social circle, which helps me a lot as I am so tired of making new connections and changing faces.
Then later waiting on a platform I ran into another bass from the church choir and we had a long lovely chat in the train on the way home. Made me feel less alone in the world and less ashamed of how that one went all pear shaped at Christmas. He was there that night, but didnt mention it and was warm and genuine.

Hi @Appleblossom
I think it's perfectly normal to limit our time here - there will be times when we need the site more than others - but this is not a police state - it's here to help and when we are feeling okay in ourselves we can drop in to keep in touch and help out where we can - but otherwise - we do have other things to do with our time
After all - how much time can we spend with the people in our lives - not half the day most days that's for sure - we give what feels right for us
@Former-Member
Yes - I am good with numbers and I know $250.00 per night in a motel is way to much esp off-season - but if you want a couple of nights away put a few dollars aside each fortnight and then toss change into a jar - it adds up
And I get how I can tell you what would help your arthritis - I have this in my hands so yes
Try this and
G#o to the pharmacy and L#around for someone to help you find something for athritis which will be
U#pon the shelves for helpful things that COS#tA# bit but M#ake lI#fe N#ice and E#asier for people with arthritis. Actually it seems to cost a lot but they will last you for 3 months and it might take a few days for you to feel the effect but for me it works immediately - so I stop taking it for a few days but I can start again
You can only try - but if you are able you can get them more cheaply at bulk chemists or on line - I just wait until the shop is getting rid of some and selling them more cheaply
All the best with that
And have I been sleepy this week - I am sure that it's because the weather is cooler and I am recovering from walking so far but I honestly don't mind sleeping - I actually like it
Dec

Re: Sleeping too much
@TAB, thanks, must check out bookings.com. How's your bones this morning? Let is know what Dr says.
@Appleblossom, thanks for your heartfelt message, you seem ok, helping others as you do but also looking after you. Can imagine your sons reaction to music jokes, my boy actually 'gets' it and cracked one himself about < under a rest "intensify the silence" he laughed. Bit like that 'sound of music' manuscript where all the notes had fallen off the staff in a pile on the floor, bahaha still makes me laugh (my fav so far).
Yeah, I get a bit paranoid here trying to work out who loves me, and maybe ave a bit of @Former-Member dpd 'cause i really miss it when key people drift but still have a lot of time for others. Pretty stupid really, but maybe that's the times we take breaks. I have got avlittle addicted to loging in here, for company mostly. And a backup for when the head wonders.
How's your brother? It must be aweful waiting for the inevitable, especially when hrs so sick as to be in ICU (how come he's not in a hospice or palliative care setting - much more peaceful). My mum has just met her community palliative care nurse who will come to the home. Its very touch and go down there. The four of them closing ranks with their defensive paranoia and failing bodies. I fear for how its going to unfold for them those last days. You know I'm the only one who steps up to take my dad across Sydney to see his sister (last remaining sibling left) and I don't go down much.
Ooo gotta go, sounds like a car accident
