I am not trying to sleep now. Last night it took me three hours to fall asleep. I am scared to go to sleep tonight because I probably can’t fall asleep again.

Dear Roaming_Randomly,

Can I just 'say' before Anything Else, that we are ALL 'Waking Up Sad, Anxious maybe even Crying.... At the moment!

Adding to that 'You Are Missing HIM'... I assume a Family Member- or Partner- either 'Left' or 'Passed Away'.... then it is Small Wonder that you are Feeling Blue. A Good friend, some years back now, 'Lost' her Father- the Parent who Mainly 'raised' her. She would just start Crying, without Warning, sometimes Mid Conversation. It took her Time..... it will take you TIME too R.R.

Please DO write more, on these pages... it IS what we are here for, and I know that I speak for ALL, when I say Our Love And Prayers Are With You.

Peace be with you.

I'm at a loss for what to say other than I feel where your at and tears may or may not help yet being gentle and compassionate with yourself will. Whatever the underlying reasons for the tears are be patient and the reaons will come. Its like peeling an onion and you may have to go deeper to realize that other things come up too. Be patient gentle and compassionate with yourself and I wish you healing and insight . Take care.

Reassure yourself and ask your inner guide to help you understand what is going on. You can use self talk and soothing techniques along with mindfulness with how your feeling. Ask yourself questions and be aware of your senses. Keep a journal and if you want to draw or do art to express what your feeling or thinking thats ok too. Music can help too yet be open to different kinds of music to connect and express then to uplift and generate a more equitable balance in your chemical response and allow more dopamine to be released. Talk to a doctor too because physical issues can contribute to mental health too. Also a deficiency in magnesium and zinc can affect mood and exacerbate depression too. You may not be getting enough vitamins and minerals in the food you consume.

My father and my kids father my family all of my family I miss especially my kids. My students and their parents I miss. The kids I used to babysit. My sister who left from cancer and a friend who left by her own hand. Flowers for a young girl I could not save . Its ok. I think that its ok to cry because tears can be healing and if theres something unresolved or whatever else is causing you pain to where your reluctant to sleep talk to someone about it like here yet also a therapist if you need to. Be kind and gentle with yourself. Its ok to give yourself a hug outside and within. You are special. You are worthy. You are You and noone can be you. Be gentle kind compassionate understanding soothing with yourself. Take care.
