Bring us your worries, big or small! The nightshift will hold them so you can sleep

[2018SoFarSoGreat]

Well, that LAST THREAD filled up much faster - so glad so many of us are finding this a place of comfort. How lucky we are to have so many of us on standby to hold our fears and worries, so that we can rest.

No questions asked, no solutions given, just the offer of a place to lay down our burdens. All are welcome.

Have had a really draconian contact at all costs judge who treated me like I was the abuser. Not sure what judge we have but hope it's not him.

@Sharletonz in sorry you are scared and worried! It is such a difficult thing you're going through!

For now, leave it with us. We'll hold that fear and worry so that you get some rest, you will need to be alert and ready for whatever happens. You just take care of you, we'll hold the rest.

To white cat and sharletonz

You are in safe and capable hands with the marvellous 2018

I am here in the background with my bag of dreams. I know times are so very hard for you both just now and sleep will not make it better but can make it a tiny bit more manageable.

May sleep soothe your souls tonight to prepare you for what is to come.

We are right behind you. 🌻 ✨ x

Thank you xx just wish i could make it go away.. My daughter has never had a day in her life where I've not felt worry and fear.. She deserves better.

She has enough if she has a mam who loves her. You are fighting to protect her from fear.

What more can you do for your daughter than to show her she deserves a life without fear and her mam is trying her best to make it so?

Keep going flower. She got you and she is blessed for that. 🌻

Not sure if we have a more recent thread. I'll be up for a while if anyone wants to hand me some of their worries

I’m awake . Went to see the GP yesterday with one problem, ended up discussing another; by 6.30pm I was told I’d be looking at possibly a minor op for the first problem and I think a 2 week referral for the other one . Lots of tests and questions and prodding . Lying in bed totally overwhelmed and wide awake, having spent the entire day worrying .

Well I've been thinking about this thread, and how much I needed it over the last couple of weeks, but somehow here it is again. The time around my mum's death is so very hard to bear.

Happy to join @SmellyOldOwls in holding your health worries, @tophonetheGP. Hope it turns out ok, but whatever happens there's always one of us right here to wrangle them so that you can rest.

I haven’t been around for a while, but I’m back now, along with the furry, feline, worry demolisher.
If any worries or problems are stealing your sleep just leave them here with me and the cat, we’ll tuck them up in the fleecy bedding and you can sleep whilst we subdue them for you.

good to see you here, @GenuineKlatchianPottery - also glad you have the furry demolisher with you!

I panicked the other day when MN was offline for an hour. I was convinced I'd come back online to see several messages here needing attention, but happily, not a one. I don't believe folks have no worries; perhaps they've just forgotten we're her :(

We are her? NO. We are here. With as many typos usual, but also as able as ever to corral all the worries so that you can rest.

What a wonderful thread. First time I have seen it. I would love someone to hold the worry of my type 1 diabetic son’s blood sugars while I get a bit of shuteye. I’m up every couple of hours scanning him and correcting his insulin- and tonight will not be good as he has Covid. I hope it’s ok me jumping in here.

@2018SoFarSoGreat - I’m so sorry about your
Mum.

Come on in, @Seriouslymole! We're delighted you found us. You know, there is quite a thing here that when you most need us, we pop right up into view.

@GenuineKlatchianPottery and her worry warrior cat are legendary keepers of the worries. Go sleep. Leave all of that here, and you rest as much as is possible. You are in good hands, I promise.

Sending healing thoughts to your lovely son. What a worry that is!

I’m happy to hold on to your worries. I can squash them flat or pull them about a bit to make them more manageable. It must be a worry without having the covid to take into account.

But we have you in between your checks. Your worries are our responsibility now.

May you both manage to get a bit of a sleep. It won’t be interrupted but hopefully the little bits in between will be quality sleeps. 🌻 ✨ x

@Seriouslymole thank you. January was/is a really hard month for me, but it is done and dusted for another year. We never get too old to need our mum :(

And 2018

Thinking of you. And sending you a comforting buttery and a Scottish water cuppy o’ tea (much love Numbers x)

mole

The furry warrior is on the go. Your worries won’t be with you for long. 🐈

Thank you for this.
I cant stop thinking about my lovely Dd. She is having such a bad time at school (mean girls). Can't bear to see her so unhappy.
Could you look after that one for me?

If the cat hasn’t already pounced I would be honoured to maitre

I want to say this too shall pass but it doesn’t help in the here and now. Not really.

I can sit on your worries and also the hurts of your daughter. They will not resurface.

Wishing for brighter days for you both 🌻 ✨. They’ll come. x

I can’t sleep. I’m in the two week wait following my second embryo transfer. If it fails again we will have to start egg collection all over again. It’s already been 4 years to get here. We can’t try naturally because I have a genetic neurological condition. The whole family is so supportive and excited for us and my husband is really looking after me. And I’m sitting here awake while he’s out working his second job, just absolutely convinced it’s failed again and I’ve let everyone down again and wasted the money we’ve been given for extra meds.

I'm so tired. Both my teenagers have Autism. Their Father left. I love them SO much. But I'm so tired. I worry. I can't make it 'all right' for them (other kids are mean, school work is hard). I'm just sitting here crying when I should be in bed. Sorry to blurt.

@The3rdWatermelon that must be agony, the waiting and worrying. Leave it here, we'll hold the worry for you, and you just rest. Your poor wee body will appreciate it, I promise. Crossing all the fingers and toes for good news WHEN it comes. For now, leave the worrying right here.

@52andblue you poor, poor thing. Here's a shoulder to lean your head on. Have that cry, go on. When you are done just lift the sadness and tiredness in two hands, ball it up in a bundle and pass it over here.

There are superb Worry Warriors in the room. You just close your eyes and let your body relax. Just sleep. Shhhh. Sleep is all you have to do.

I hope it has been successful for you watermelon

Please don’t think that you have ever let anyone down. You are having the courage to try and what will be will be.

Don’t think about the money. You have spent it on a dream. And sometimes dreams come true. Hope is never a waste. Allow yourself hope for now. Allow yourself sleep.

I will hold your worries while you hold your hopes and dreams. It is a fair swap.

I’m sorry for waffling. Just know that I know. And care. And whatever life throws your way, this thread and those on it will be here to soothe the worries. 🌻 ✨ x

@SheldonesqueTheBstard thank you for the comfort nack and the love. I absolutely LOVE a buttery. My very favorite, and I'm a bit of an addict when I'm in Scotland. I eat all the butteries, in the guise of 'testing' the brands :)

Good to see you, feels like tonight we all came together just when we were needed.
