Night Owls (for those awake late and can't sleep)

[Croix]

Dear All
The purpose of this thread is as a meeting point for those that can’t sleep and it is late (I.E. AFTER midnight.)

It can be a useful space for users to share their issues with insomnia as well as coping strategies. It can also be a general space for users to converse and support one another throughout a difficult night.

Please note – for those that are just bored or lonely we already have a place - the BB Café, which I recommend instead of here

hi all,

hope ur okay

havng a blah night

not feeling so sure of myself or aything. there's a weird , familiar feeling there, with some ppl recently saying some hurtful things.
I've been drinking my tea and hoping that will be nice and calming for me.

i'm getting anxious over being anxious, which is a fun cycle. Thoughts are so much, sometimes and moreso at night.
How was everyone's day? here to listen x i wont judge anyone if anyone wants to chat or vent here anytime. hope ppl get some sleep and rest

A little sleep, thanks sleepy21. I am not a good sleeper at the best of times when my pain flares up it’s almost impossible to sleep.

Been awake for ages now. Get a bit worried about how I will function at work tomorrow. It’s a Friday at least. I wish power naps worked at night.
