So that last bit was meant to say, been supporting a mate, and my little brother has been going to school, but I don’t know how that bit even got there so let’s ignore it Haha

Feel like garbage

Hi Jackson,

Sounds like you have a lot going on for you, for family and friends plus having a gorgeous baby that doesn't like to sleep so much during the night.

Hopefully you can find solutions for your own mental health while you are trying to be there for your mate and your brother.

If you would like some ideas on how to support yourself and others, you might like to have a look at that section of the Beyond Blue resources.

Your first Christmas with W is going to be different for you all.

Hope you find a way to turn your thoughts down when you are trying to sleep.

Regards from Dools

Last night wasn’t too bad, only 8 times.

Trying a few different things to see what works.

Took the day off yesterday, just woke up feeling real anxious paired with little sleep.

H is gold. I said I feel like crap, she said yeah I know, I can tell first thing in the morning if you’re feeling unwell, stay home because you always turn around and say you shouldn’t of gone to work. So I did, stayed in my trackies all day, played with W, went for a surf later in the day. Just sucks having to catch up, which will be what I do today.

Hi Jackson,

Hope the catching up bit is not too stressful or anxious for you. Also hope you have some good memories from yesterday you can play over and over in your mind.

I believe it is important to share when our days go horrid. Sharing how we feel can help to reduce the impact of the negative thoughts. A lack of sleep doesn't help either!

Cheers to you from Dools

Some days, as far as I can tell yet, there’s no rhyme or reason for it. The people closest to me know before I even realise myself that I don’t feel great. Something I need to work on.

I hate complaining about work online but it’s very frustrating that three maybe four months ago I was told I didn’t need to complete what felt like a 40 page document that everyone else was doing now in December, two weeks away from heading on leave for Christmas I have to do it and have it approved by 3 people. Why??

First time leaving Will for the whole night last night, hesitant given the whole sleeping situation but apparently was an angel, probably because we weren’t there.

Beautiful night though, went out for dinner then saw our favourite singer live one of those artists that means a lot to both of us, so it was super special. Loved it.

Head hurts a little this morning but that’s ok.
