hey night owls

Hi @Bridgetjones. I've slept heaps today so wide awake at the moment. Don't know if my sleeping tablets will kick in or not.
what have you been up to today

Hi thanks for replying. Had lunch with my mum and spent a bit of time with my grandson. What about you? Are you male or female? A long term member of sane community?

Hi @Bridgetjones. I just wanted to say hi and that there is a thread called night shift. You can often find people there to talk to. There is currently another new member there too. Welcome to the forum. I've been here for about 3 months and it's been great. Catch you around soon I'm heating of to bed. Night shift is in the enjoying time with others part. 😊💜

Oops I'm heading off to bed. Just a bit tired😝

Thanks for saying hi. Goodnight. Sleep well

@Bridgetjones - I'm 45 (middle bloody aged so I'm told). Single parent of a teenage boy. What joy! Been single for over 8 years. Moved from Melbourne to small country town 5 years avgo and love it. I live with depression on and off for many years. Since workplace incident over 2 years ago, I also developed anxiety and PTSD. The PTSD has been treated - successfully we think. No more fight or flight or just being immobile and unable to move when a trigger hits. So it's now just depression and anxiety.
I have some really good days whede I achievelots and make plans and then I have down times when I just sleep. Just coming out of the later mood and starting to pick up.
Oh and im hating this cold winter.
What about you?

Im 44 have a 23 yr old daughter and two grandkids Im crazy about. Have had depression in varying degrees for many yrs. Also social phobia. Depression isnt too bad atm under control. Been on anti depressants for yrs. Grandkids give me lots of laughs and cheer me up. Hating the cold weather too. live in Canberra.

Canberra - it's freezing in Victoria, it must be an ice block in Canberra. Young kids are good. They are funny little human beings. They see and hear everything. Ever tried to quietly unwrap some chocolate or lollie or other treat for yourself. They will be all over you before you can get it in your mouth.
I love watching my 4 year old neice. Everything has to be pink and fairies. She's going to grow up and be a princess. She does not believe me when I say we dont have a king and Queen and a castle in Australia. Shewill get her oown castle then! She is good for a laugh and to remind me to notice the little things in life that make me happy.
Well my sleeping tablets have kicked in. So ill saygoodnight @Bridgetjones and hope to talk to you another day and we can catch up more.
Night night sleep tight

Thanks. hope to talk to you again soon. sleep well
