By the way does anyone just wish they could sleep off anxiety, low mood, irrational thoughts, fears and sadness! If only........ Ahhhh! X

Wow, your cat is adorable! Cats & I don't usually get along but yours just looks so cuddly and cute!
I definitely agree with the wish of just sleeping anxiety away. The ironic thing is though that it usually just ends up preventing you from getting any sleep at all - at least it's like that with me. Is there anything in particular you need to get off your mind tonight?
Thankyou both! And yes I agree with that, and not necessarily just wish that I could start enjoying my life again rather than dreading what tomorrow's going to be like!! I'm getting there slowly though, how about you ? Are you both ok x
All we can do is just take one day at a time got to spend all day at home today so thankfully am nice & relaxed with nothing much bothering me - always lovely when you get those rare nights. Hopefully the new year will be kind to you & you can start to feel more at ease

One thing I have thought of trying is mediation, which is sort of like sleep. The idea is to focus on an object or positive thought. E.G I am OK. And then sit and only think that thought and breathe deeply for e.g. 45 minutes...
Seeing you post make me think I'll it try tomorrow and if your interested I'll post what happens...
Yeah down1234 it sounds quite good, I read off a post something about an app called headspace and it seems really good. Only thing is I don't know how to meditate haha!!! So I'm still working that one out xx
I would love to do that. off to bed and wake up worry free and no anxiety in the back ground waiting to ponce.
Your cat looks lovely and seems to like his photo taken lol.

Oh believe me Gardnertwo she is a right poser!! X
Cute picture....Yes I wish i could just sleep and wake up worry free. xx
Thankyou yummimummi xx
Beautiful kitten.
It would be so nice to go to bed and wake up 'normal' again and have a feeling of peace instead of taht fear that lurks all the time.
Have to keep working on it. Julie xx
Yes jeffju I'm just not positive about my day at the minute it's quite sad really, I really want to be!! Xx
Oops I meant Julie xx
It would be lovely to sleep away all anxiety. Sleep at the moment is a mystery to me. I can fall asleep watching telly downstairs go to bed and can only manage a couple of uninterrupted hours. I know it is because I get pains in my legs and back but i sill feel so lethargic. Anyway let's be positive . Son got home to Glasgow okay he fell asleep so forgot to text. Have booked train down to South wales at half term and provisional booked hotel in Glasgow for end of that weekend. Hoping to go to Morocco at end of March and possibility of Northern Lights trip through Group on with O/H and some good mates. So quite a lot to look forward to.
I know what you mean by that I seem to do it quite often!! It's annoying and wow sounds like you've a lot to look forward too I could do with a nice holiday break, hope you enjoy yourself
You can buy Phenergen 10mg at the chemist.......non addictive so my doctor tells me....usually used for travel sickness and hay fever but get you relaxed and off to sleep also.
Takes a while to work..an hour at least.
You can get stronger dose but I find the lower dose is OK.
If I'm honest I have no trouble falling asleep I just wish I could go to sleep and wake up looking forward to my day but for about 2 months now I've woke up dreading what's to come!!
Just be glad you are alive..when I see the little kids on TV in war torn countries with no hope, no medical aid and often no parent I feel so lucky....if you really get into a panic, go to your crisis department at your local hospital.
You look very young, lucky you, very pretty, lucky you, hopefully you are living in a safe environment...hopefully you have a careing friend or partner or even husband......tell yourself 'I am safe'
And I hope you will convince yourself that you are.
