Hi shenka how are things
Are you in diff country (as in not uk) or just awake in early hours?
When I can't sleep I try to really imagine I'm walking down a beach, concentrating on the details, the water is lapping over my feet, the waters warm, the sun is shining and there's a light breeze, can i see a fish.... The more details i focus on the quicker I seem to go to sleep. I try to do same at dentists too it does help a bit.
Hope yr ok x
Hi Shenka.
I'm sorry you were feeling lonely but please don't feel alone. I guess most of us in the UK were asleep 7 hours ago. How are you feeling now? Do you still want to chat?
Shenka,
I am too. What shall we do?
Any ideas, please pass on.
I play Scrabble on my phone. It's an excellent game called 'wordchums'. If you fancy playing, you can find me on it with the same username as here.
Are you good with words?
🌝🐚🐳 hi Shenka xx
Just posted a post to make you laugh. It's titled 'joke for fun'
Hey there Shenka,
Hugs to you. Lovely name by the way. Just cos I like to share....I’ve just eaten my breakfast, mid morning snack AND lunch all before 10.20 in the morning....eeeek! Tell me, is it wrong that I’m now slumped over my keyboard wondering if my jeans can take the strain....hummmm......
May need coffee whilst I’m pondering this.
Hope you are ok, or feeling less lonely in the light of day? Be gentle on yourself.
Hi shenka hugs to you sweetie
Hi, sweetheart. You okay?
Thanks. Just diagnosed and then 5 year divorce came through this week. Finding it all overwhelming.
Morning Shenka,
I try and focus on what positive out comes are to be gained.
There is nothing holding you back apart from you.
You're tired and overwhelmed - take things one step at a time. You have a diagnosis, therefore a reason as to why you feel how you do. Others go on for years in limbo. You have a life altering condition, in a way we are the luckier ones - we have medicines that help a huge amount (once diagnosed). We're taking tablets daily and have to make changes to our diet but everything is available at the touch of a button. Even support!
When I have a bad week (never just one day is it!) I find the strength to get up and shower. I was once told always get up and make your bed. Even if you're going to get straight back in it. It's a huge achievement. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. Sometimes I don't go back to bed, it's a good feeling.
Might I suggest downloading something on Netflix. I downloaded and watch entire box sets. It's okay to do minimal. You need to recharge and take care of you. Make a list of three things to do each day. It can be silly things: shower, drink 12 glasses of water, make a phone call. Up it if you can but be realistic.
Your divorce, can be a beginning. My best friend just sent off for a new a passport with a change of name. People grow apart and hopefully you drifted apart and there's no blame. You should be happier now, think of ways to get closure. Slow and steady. You're unique! Do it your way and in your own time.
So appreciate your reply. I am so angry at my now ex.
