Good evening to everyone! HUGS! I'm going on 3 days with only a few minutes of shut eye๐ญ Mind and body are totally exhausted. So wide awake I could shoot myself dead just to sleep!!!! I have epilepsy and no sleep triggers seizures. Haven't had one yet thankfully. I'm thinking it would be good to have one cause afterwards I'm out of it and fall asleep for awhile. Anyhoo I hope you all get a great nights rest! โ โค friends!

Hello my friend I know how you feel about the lack of sleep I usually. Get by with 3/4 hours a night! Just a little tip I've tried in the past go to a herbal shop and get a bottle of lavender oil put it on your pillow before you go to bed I found it worked take care best luck David!
Funny you say that cause my cbd oil has lavender in it. I've taken about 2 mg tonight but no such luck. Its so tough getting no sleep whatsoever. I'd probably be ok with 3 or 4 hours but this is making me nuts!!! Thanks so much for the advice. Take care David. Hope you get some quality sleep tonight๐๐
Awwww Iโm sorry ๐ฅ Maybe try melatonin over the counter. Drink some sleepy time tea. Listen to some nice music. Xo ๐
Lack of sleep gives feelings that are hard to describe and I really feel for you. Im actually having trouble sleeping tonight too. I just said a prayer for you because I donโt know what else to do.
Yea I feel so rotten!!! Thank you for the prayer!๐๐๐ What I need is honey in milk then heat it up. Puts me to sleep for the most part. Loved it when it worked. I'm going to Wal-Mart Saturday or Sunday and ill be getting some!!! Hoping that will work. Your struggling with sleep too? This sucks Starr!!!๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ต๐ณ ugh!
Ill say a prayer for you as well!! For long peaceful deep sleep๐ด๐ด๐ด
Hugs. Hope you can sleep soon!
Insomnia is awful!! I have to take ambien and sometimes Xanax to sleep, I also spray magnesium oil on my feet and that helps.
It is isn't it. I wish I could take those pills to sleep. I can't due to seizures. Never heard of the magnesium on feet trick. I'm out of honey but when I put honey in milk and heat it,up that will help a lot! I think I got a few hours sleep๐๐๐ Fially!!
Your welcome it's amazing how the lack of sleep effects you! I've not tried the cbd oil what essentially what is it and are there any interactions with any meds you may already taking! Take care and safe david x
Good morning David! Oh yea I was a disaster last night. Ended up crying depressed and I guess stressed at not being able to sleep! I don't know how to explain what cbd oil is exactly. Ummm, just Google cbd oil and its benefits. It helps with everything. I'm taking it for depression, anxiety and sleep. Cause I'm not taking meds for any of that just cbd!! So yes it works wonders. I use Select Lavender Tincture. I should be only using 1 to 1.5 mg a day but find myself using more which makes no difference. The oil never interacts with pills I take. So its safe there. Have a great day my friend!!

Did ya sleep at all Kacey?
Thankfully a few hours
Ah gooood! Better than nothing. How r u feeling?
Good morning Susie!! I feel amazing just cause I got a few hours! All it takes๐๐ So thrilled to sleep Starr omg. Its amazing what sleep can do for us all. Did you sleep at all???
Are you anxious about something like going back to training? Wow, I couldn't imagine having that little sleep- sorry about that. I know everyone is different but sometimes at least in my case some melatonin has worked. I wish you the best. How are things going with the doggie biscuits?
Hiya gogogirl๐ Haven't made doggie biscuits at all in the last few weeks. Ummm yes I'm terrified of going back for CNA training! I'm usually picked on by other students and what's making me so nervous is the brain fog!! I space out just like while at a PAWS meeting yesterday! I was looking at the lady talking but it all went right over my head. I just can't pay attention whatsoever! I do have ADHD. Taking adderall for it but my Dr needs to up my dose. If that doesn't work I'm going to see about neurofeedback at the Drs office. Ill try anything at this point! Anyhoo, how are you doing? How's your weekend been??
Hey there- great to hear from you- I can relate to spacing out sometimes- but sometimes mine is due to being anxious having some regrets, and of course slowing done a little with aging. I try to be more present in my old age! I have heard of nuerofeedback . What is that like, and where is that done? Anyway, I am walking more so that seems to help with that. Weekend has been doing a lot of catch up with chores especially with the garden. How has yours been other than the sleep situation? I know that is a huge one.
Good to hear your doing good. I bet you have a beautiful garden ๐ Like you I also space out cause of my anxiety. So my name is perfect for me! Spacey Kacey๐๐๐ I'm having the aging brain fog! Its taken my thoughts away. When I listen to something or someone all I hear is blah blah blah. Like when the teacher starts talking I'm terrified of not absorbing the information. ๐ฑ๐ฑ So I totally understand how aging can be such a problem. Like you said I have regrets too. Lots! Don't know much about the neurofeedback yet. It was something my Dr suggested to try. Its helped ppl with depression, adhd and lots of other issues. I'm so desperate right now that ill try anything! I believe I can do the testing at the Drs office I go to. I agree walking does wonders. I recently gained 80 pds from stopping walking and giving up cigarettes. Trying to get back walking again. Hope its really helping you too. I was addicted to walking everyday and now its like do I have to๐ I can imagine how calming working in the garden can be. Lose yourself is planting beautiful ๐. As far as sleep....good for 2 days. Hope your able to sleep too! Weekend has been just relaxing and watching my Denver Broncos lose right now๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ lol
I would like to know more about nuero also whatever it is. It's so good to hear from you- yes, planting, picking and eating ( the latter being my specialty) is certainly a nice rhthym. I think it's great that you walk all of the time, sometimes I have to coax myself- well really more than sometimes! I give you so much credit for keeping up with being a CNA- what types of settings have you worked at- if I asked before- well we know how that is! Kacey is a really pretty name- and you have such a sense of humor around it ( or at least you have adapted to it)- with the nickname. Hey, I get foggy sometimes- but when something really grabs my attention- hold the phone! Were you diagnosed with ADD when you were still at school? When I was at school a million years ago- there was not a lot that was discussed about ADD or learning challenges. Today of course so much more is known and there are adaptations which can be made. When I was in college ( also a million years ago) I sometimes read notes back into a tape recorder for extra feedback. I had no idea why I did it, but it seemed to help with retention. Today- well I will take anything. I wonder if the instructor would also give permission to tape the class or whatever works for you. Have you thought about doing something else for work also- or this is it as this is your passion and you've done it before? Also, does this state recognize your other states' license or do you constantly need to update as it's medical? I apologize if I mentioned this before. I hope you can also find a group with whom to walk. Cheers and a big high five to you, lady!
Lol girl!!๐๐๐ Your absolutely a kick in the pants!!! Sooooo funny! I just had the best time reading that! You are beyond funny and that's such an awesome quality,I think! Being silly is so much fun๐๐ I forgot what questions you asked!! Here we go foggy brain!! I would record her but I wouldn't be able to pay attention if I listened to her recorded voice either! Sounds awful. Iv e been tested for adhd since an early age. They never gave me the aderrall cause of my drunk drug history. Its an amphetime.
I always just love hearing from you too my silly lady๐๐
Umm CNA I stick with cause its easy and quick learning to become one. Make absolutely no money doing it but I'm just not smart enough to become vet tech which I'd love to do. My first job was in an assured living. Never changed jobs but while drinking I would do other types of jobs. I'd only be able to keep a job for a week if that due to excessive drinking! Just horrific life! So I just keep retaking CNA classes to stay CNA certified to get this type job.
I was certified in Las Vegas but could only get home care jobs. Iv e been living off disability I think now since 2007! So trying to get a cna job in Vegas was difficult cause I hadn't worked in over 10 years. Yikes right! I'd like to get job here in Utah in a care facility for seniors or the rehab facility. I desperately need health coverage etc thru a company since home care pays more but absolutely no benefits!๐ฑ๐ฑ As far as other work, I'd love to get higher pay but I have absolutely no skills in anything. Serious learning disabilities so going to real school isn't an option so I stick with CNA. I've just always adored the elderly too. Iv e had more friends who were 80 + years old than anyone my age! I dislike ppl my age๐ต๐ฒ๐ณ Not friendly except ppl on here are. The elderly are such amazing folks. Last generation of truly inspirational and amazing stories! I'm going to miss all of them.
My lady in Vegas, Mrs. Natalie, was sooo amazing, gentle, caring, loving, funny etc. She passed away in Gods hands a few years ago now. Happened on my shift. I can't talk about it cause it hurts to much๐ญ๐ญ But I just loved her so much and she truly will never be forgotten๐
Ha hopefully we can both get walking daily cause it does really help you emotionally, physically etc. My anxiety keeps me locked in my apt. I have to go at like 5 am when its still black outside. I'm such a weirdo๐๐ Omg tell me to shut the hell up!๐๐๐ In rambling I'm so dang sorry! I just so enjoy our chats! You are so cool, caring, fun and awesome gogogirl๐๐
