Bring your worries over here, the Night Shift are here to mind them.

[NaomiFromMilkShake]

Starting a new thread because the old one is full, I never thought when I started it that it would a) be moved to Classics and b) help so many people.

Just started a thread in chat too. Is anyone awake is the title

Hmm not such a nice thing, to have idiots who think it’s funny to post crap on such a caring thread. What goes on in your heads?

Rest assured that it's the same lone idiot, night shift.

I’m here if anyone needs worries minded.

Thanks Elizabeth. I think they have a few worries they are not admitting to themselves if they feel the need to do this.

I’m here with my little furry shadow ready to take care of any worries for the night.
Just leave them here while you sleep and I’ll look after them for you.

Hello @GenuineKlatchianPottery, I've got a bottleneck with finances at present which concerns me, especially as it's coming up to Xmas.

On a separate note it baffles me why anyone would want to derail this thread? Hopefully it's stopped now.

I haven't slept properly for months.
Stress is making my insides feel awful. Wine makes it worse.
DH keeps snoring. I've just got so upset about him waking me up again that he's stomped off to the spare room. Feeling sad now. Please hold these worries for me. I just need to sleep so very much.

I am worried about my tiny blueberry of a baby, I’m only 9 weeks but I’ve had some bleeding etc and I’m praying they’re holding on in there.

I’m also worried about my DD who is nearly 2 and not walking or talking and is having lots of investigations about what’s going on.

I’m worried about being behind at work, I’ve been feeling so poorly this pregnancy it’s taking its toll.

And I’m still grieving for my dad who died 10 months ago. Now feel completely responsible for DM who struggles with MH problems.

Finally I just weaned DD and j think I might have mastitis, but I always worry about breast cancer too. I get quite bad health anxiety which rears it’s ugly head when I’m stressed.

Oh and I had a horrible dream as well which hasn’t helped and I’m scared to go back to sleep in case I get it again (it’s a recurring dream Ive had on and off for years)

@paintmywholehousepink I'll hold them tight for you, have some rest and you'll be fresher in the morning to look at the things which are stressing you and start to build methods to cope.

But for now relax and breathe deeply and know that you're safe.

Thank you @Frownette X

I'm struggling to sleep. My DS who has type 1 diabetes has tested positive for covid. He is at uni. This is the first time he has managed an illness alone. Worried about the impact Colvin's will have on his blood sugars. Also, feel irrationally angry that he is back less than a month and has Covid!

Signing in for the night watch. Drop those annoying, sleep stealing worries here and I’ll tuck them in nice and cozy with me and the cat while you sleep.

For anyone struggling with their worries tonight, drop them off at the end of the bed, there’s plenty of room for them here. You can collect them tomorrow after you’ve had some sleep. Me and the cat will take care of them for you.

I'm needing help tonight. I've tested positive for cv19. I don't feel bad physically but mentally I'm fried. I saw my 80 year old mum when I was asymptomatic but infectious and I'm so scared I gave it to her. I am devastated that I might have inadvertently caused her harm.

Hello
I used to be on mnet all the time but my children are bigger now so mostly I just read and not post.
Anyway, I had a bad day. I upset a colleague and without dismissing it the person over reacted and was ‘too upset’ to let me apologise. I’ve been overwhelmed with this since lunchtime.
I am so tired but when I get overwhelmed with a worry I don’t want to switch off because (and this sounds mad) it might get bigger if I am somehow not worrying about it. I know it’s irrational so I wondered please could I try and leave it here. If I could leave the tears as well that would be good because crying =migraines for me.

Anybody out there struggling with worries and thoughts, drop them off here. Let me mind them while you get some peaceful sleep tonight

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and Am in a long distance relationship we been together 5 years im really emotional and keep telling him that I feel like he doesn't care about me or wants to be with me, and he just avoids it or literally reads my messages when I am upset and try to tell him how I feel. He's stopped texting me he hardly ever speaks to me only when I try and speak to him and it feels forced most of the time. But when I go to see him and stay with him it's so different !!!!!!! Everything's perfect It's like when I get back home he's a different person

@whoeverthrewthatpaperyamomsaho

Hope you are doing better tonight.

I’m here if anyone needs worries minded. I have some, too but always room for more. I’ll feed them chocolate. (Heath bars actually, not easy to find here!)

@whoeverthrewthatpaperyamomsaho
Sleep well and focus on yourself and your baby. x

@HannaYeah hope your worries are manageable. Everything is better with chocolate.

I'm not sure I'm worried exactly, just pensive and just woke up.

I've had a few friends have losses past year so this is the xmas where I want to show I care, so frantically trying to sort out presents. I don't get many opportunities to do something for them so I'm really happy at getting things for them that they'd like.

@HannaYeah hope you feel more settled now! I'll toss my present distribution at you to sort out :)
