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

[2018SoFarSoGreat]

New thread here, since the Last Thread has ever so slowly filled up. Isn't it amazing how little our worries crept up in the night when the world was actually one big worry?

Pandemic or not, this is the place to just park your worries. We don't ask questions, or try to solve your problems. We just hold them, tenderly, carefully, until you are strong enough to take them back. If they choose not to come back, all the better.

Signing in for the Night Shift, V3!

So that’s one terrierist, a boarding boarder collie, a gobby parrot 🦜, a large soft toy 🐧, a 4 foot Wile E Coyote, a 4 foot Christmas Moose (Chris Moose, of course), me, my norks, my erm... love handles rolls of fat and weird cheese dreams.

I think any worries are well and truly looked after, whatever they need!

I have a feeling cheese will be necessary for anything like a decent dream…

Today I will be mostly eating Monterey Jack 🙂

Me again. Sorry.

So my device is dying. I can't get another. I'm suffering really badly with PTSD. Not had more than three hours sleep in ten days. I can't cope with any noises at all.

Amazon sent me a wrong item. My device is too old to run their customer services app so it looks like they'll be keeping my money. Twitter, Facebook, none of them work anymore and I had messenger turned off after getting abuse.

Everything is too much. Got some food and got triggered by the self service, by that I mean full on, sobbing, people laughing at me, I know they don't know what happened to why I'm that sensitive but it really hurt.

I'm terrified. No access to anything and I've realised over the last ten days I never will again.

Rabies infected violent zombie people.

And he has just serviced Natalie Dormer in the littlest room. It wasn’t romantic.

I’ve seen more rapturous expressions on folk when they’ve been troughing sprouts.

I’m not sure if that’s gone straight to the top or the bottom of my to view list 🤣

‘troughing sprouts’ has just killed me though, thank you! With critique like that I really hope it’s your profession... if not it should be! 😂

As someone who lost themselves in Marks and Sparks food hall, I understand.

For all the ones reacting to you less than wonderfully, there will have been others who know and will have looked at you with compassion.

I am ex forces and know the horrors of ptsd.

I can’t make it better but by god I would carry your troubles so that you can sleep. Sleep is a gift and freedom from the torture of insomnia.
I’ve no advice about Amazon because I’ve not used it.

But I can hide your troubles in my lurks and quieten them for now.

Goodnight god bless. Put your head down on something soft and try to drift to a happier place.

Try, try and try again. It worked for Rab the Bruce. All being well, it’ll work for you.

And everything always seems a little brighter after a sleep.

We have you in our arms. We carry your woes.

That was for you becca love

@Becca19962014 I’m sorry I have no advice lovely, but if you feel able to park your worries with us for the night please do. You try and get some rest if you can

@SheldonesqueGoddessOfTheMoonah Your understanding means so much. The diagnosis is one that's ignored and dismissed as I "look fine". No understanding at all that, for me, that was a major part of my diagnosis; so that people can now see just shows how bad it is if that makes sense.

I'll try and sleep.

I just wanted to say a big thankyou

@OnceUponAMidnightBeery thankyou.

Can I join your thread tonight? 1.37am and can’t sleep.

Tonight becca you have chosen to use my powerful name, my strong name, my moon(ah) name.

May some of that strength transfer to you.

Every now and then our inner struggles leak to the outside so that others can see we are struggling. It is how it should be. Sometimes we feel we cannot ask for help but in my experience, there is alway someone who will offer to help when we cannot find the words.

Sleep well. x

Welcome boat

Can we squash your sleeplessness into submission? 🌻 x

I don’t even know exactly what’s wrong. I’ve been in bed for the past hour and can’t stop crying, it’s so stupid and I don’t even know why.

Dry your tears on my shoulder. Wipe your nose on my sleeve. (It is clean but has seen worse in its day)

If you are crying it needs to come out. Tears don’t travel alone. An emotion needs to be free.

Turn off the light and think of your happiest day. Try to smell your happiest smell. And breathe.

Slow. Steady. Peacefully.

Force a wee yawn if you can. A real one or three will follow. They are like buses.

Hopefully sleep will follow.

Just breathe. In and out. In. And out.

We have you. Sweet dreams await🌻 x

Thank you. It helps knowing I’m not alone.

I don't even know where to begin, but all I know is that right now my head is absolutely spinning and I just cannot cope with the constant rollercoaster of emotions that I'm going through.

I split with dcs dad 8 years ago due to him cheating and leaving for Ow they were together 5 years and he left her for Owand since then she has made mine and my dcs life a living hell.
They have had a baby and all I get are constant pictures of them as a family sent to me by her, whilst the last time my dc saw their dad was 3 months ago. She knows that he wasn't really around when they were their babies age and it's like she wants to break me or something.
I have never seen nor spoken to this woman and know absolutely about her, I have spoken to my ex who seems to be completely under her thumb and is ruled by her and by all accounts from mutual friends she is quite possessive, very insecure and jealous.

Even though she is blocked on all social platforms, she keeps making fake accounts to send to me, tonight I've had another load of pictures from bank holiday and I honestly cannot stop crying again I've messager the ex and asked if would please talk with her to stop, as it is causing me severe depression and anxiety to the point I feel like I don't want to be here anymore.

I've spoken to the police previously, but as I don't know her name or where they live I can't do anything about it. I really don't know what else to do its breaking my heart.

I'm also up worrying about secondary school admissions for ds, I don't know which school to send him to or even where to begin looking.
I'm worried he's going to get bullied for being a bit chubby or that he's going to get caught up In gangs (live in london) I have nobody to discuss these things with and I'm tired of being alone and having to make these big life changing decisions.
I also want to move but I'm piss poor broke, feel like I'm failing my dc and stuck in a life that I didn't want, whilst their dad and partner parade around their new sibling getting all the things they should've had.

I have not experienced your situation. I don’t have bairns. And no daft exes ever bothered me like that.

But I do know this. I wasn’t from a wealthy home. And I was fat. But I knew love. I knew love.

And you can conquer the world with love.

Possessions can make life shiny but they don’t make anyone shine.

Only love does that.

The fact that you worry shows you love. And love - and sleep - makes for a better morning.

You are halfway there. We can carry you to sleep.

May the lightness of air find you.

Sorry for posting again. I feel like I don’t know what to do with myself.

And I know it isn’t right and I know it isn’t fair. Life just bloody isn’t.

But she feels the need to try to taunt you with her ‘charmed’ life. Happy people don’t do that.

Have pity. Have compassion. You are ‘free’. It doesn’t sound as though she is.

Until you find compassion? I don’t think anyone would blame you for a sneaky two fingers at the screen whenever it goes ping. (I didn’t say I was perfect!) x

What is troubling you boat? Is there anything at all you need to let out?

I think I have got a lot on my mind, struggling emotionally right now anyway but it seems to have all come rumbling out tonight.

Thank you!

I know she isn't happy and in reality I know deep down I am, its just a lot to deal with at the moment.

I will get through this I've been through worse, but for now I'm going to cry and hope I can cover the suitcases under my eyes with lots of makeup in the morning.

A load of people REPORTED my thread asking for help with Amazon. I'm done with this site. Why are people like this? Everytime I ask for help, I need to put about financial difficulties and access issues and everytime get reported. I won't ask for help again.

It wasn't a begging thread just a request for help to contact Amazon.

Anyway thank YOU all for caring!
