It must be hard having to take your meds so early @Bow especially if they make you sleepy.

I find I am awake early too and struggle to get back to sleep. And that's not including the numerous times that I wake up during the night. I think our lack of sleep plays a huge roll in our mental and physical health. It really affects it.

It would be good if you can have a SW that you are comfortable with, especially if you have grown to have a rapport with them. It makes it much easier to talk with someone that you can trust too.

I hope you can have at least a small bowl of soup for tea.

Yep I hate having to take my meds so early @Snowie i am on half the dose I use to be and the majority of the time they make me sleepy. Yet at the higher dose previously most of the time they didn’t knock me out. And I’m not currently taking the antidepressant that also has a sedative effect. Weird.

I think I was awake at 4:30am this morning. I tried so hard to go back to sleep but couldn’t. And I woke heaps during the night too. It does affect us eh.

yes I feel heaps more comfortable with this new support worker. Feel like she gets me and understands me a bit better. Only thing is she knows I’m avoiding the gp and bloods and reminds me every time I see her.

unfortunately mum will make me eat dinner. She lets me get away with everything else, but will make a fuss if I try and skip that.

We like a nice stir fry here @Snowie but we cheat a buy a packet of stir fry veg from aldi.

That is weird about your meds @Bow but then again so many things can affect our sleepiness.

I find trying to stay busy during the day and dealing with everything makes me so tired by night, but then sleep evades me. It is certainly a vicious cycle.

The SW sounds like she is very caring of you hon. Hopefully you can work your way up to seeing the gp and getting your bloods done.

Perhaps even just a small bowl, but I know how difficult that can be for you.

I like those aldi vegetable stir fry too. Always shop at aldi, they have so many good things, and the kids like it too. I am lucky that my kids are not fussy eaters.

I’d just really like a decent nights sleep @Snowie I’m sure it would feel amazing!

we always shop at aldi too. Get everything we can from there and then just a small shop at coles for extras that aldi don’t have. It must be nice having kids that aren’t fussy! My d is soooo fussy. She won’t eat this soup for dinner. Won’t even try it. She wont eat stir fry, she’ll just eat carrots and cauliflower and I can’t just pick it out from the stir fry we eat cause it will have bits on it. Has to be cooked separately. She use to eat much better. I musta done something wrong with her there

A good nights sleep does sound amazing @Bow Even just not waking up during the night would suit me.

I think kids go through stages with food. My two used to be fussy but as they have gotten older they have gotten better at tasting different foods. The only one S refuses to eat is broccoli. Never liked it myself either.

I mainly do my shopping at aldi too and then go to coles for the rest. They are in the same complex too which makes it easy to go to both.

I am in bed @fluffylight

I had my meds at 4pm, so I’m feeling the affects of them, doesn’t feel good. And doesn’t help that I’ve had very little intake today.
I had a little bit of soup for dinner and I feel absolutely disgusting. I didn’t wanna eat anything. I didn’t wanna drink anything. Want to punish myself more. Just want my body to stop
