Hey guys so chat is not on tonight and so I've decided to post my goodnight thread early and say goodnight later further down.

First off here's a hug



My laptop is up and running and the discussion tab is open while I do my work so if anyone needs to ramble or wants to have a silly chat I'm here to listen and join in 😊

Standard forum rules apply as usual 🌈


I hope you've all had a good day Remember if you survived that's enough, there's always tomorrow 💕

My good night tips will come in my night time reply (at 22:00 GMT) but for now here's a positive quote of the day:


I will be active until my 1 am planned bedtime do I will see any rants or discussions.

Before though I thought we could mention 1 or more things that we're proud of today (it can be as simple as showering or getting out beds those are still achievements too!  😊)

Mine are: going for a run,  not needing my inhaler until now, and being rather calm today 😁

Hope everyone is well ❤

    Hey Laine!
    well achievements of Today I didn’t kill myself and I went to my appointment & started group therapy 
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Okay guys it's time to say good night! 

    Remember your bed is for sleep and rest, don't dwell on today's problems ghere's no need for them now leave them in the past along with everything else that isn't worth bringing up. Now is you time 💕

    As William Blake said "Think in the morning. Act in the noon. Eat in the evening. Sleep in the night." 🌈

    So grab yourself a nice soothing drink,  a good book,  playlist or video. Relax them shoulders, stop tensing up your neck and arms,  let all thoughts leave your head and most importantly

     
    If you're up tonight and don't intend on sleeping then use this time to just do something for yourself,  a nice bath,  play a good game,  so whatever you want but do it for you.

    I'm up if you need a rant or hug and remember most of all


    Much love xo

    Have you taken the same amount that worked last time?

    perhaps some sleep inducing exercises? x

    Perhaps taking a warm shower
    or the 428 method
    1. Place the tip of your tongue against the ridge of tissue just behind your upper front teeth, and keep it there through the entire exercise.
    2. Exhale completely through your mouth, making a whoosh sound.
    3. Close your mouth and inhale quietly through your nose to a mental count of four.
    4. Hold your breath for a count of seven.
    5. Exhale completely through your mouth, making a whoosh sound to a count of eight.
    6. Repeat the cycle three more times for a total of four breaths.

    Visualisation is also beneficial, picture a place or something that makes you calm it can be make believe. focus on it and relax at the same time.

    some music is also helpful and so is scenting your room with what relaxes you like lavender or sandelwood ect

    Okay guys here is your nightly reminder that your bed is for rest and sleep and all of the problems of yesterday should be left in the past.
    do your body the good it deserves and relax.
    you don't have to be asleep just lie down and do something to relax you or to cheer you up give yourself a break <3



    As per usual grab yourself a nice soothing drink, get some nice music going or a good show to bore ease yourself into sleep.
    practice some breathing exercises if you're anxious or happy calm thoughts.

    the sleep quote of the day is:


    And: "The best way to see what tomorrow brings is to sleep through the night"

    I am up if you need to rant i'm still here i promise x

    Sleep tight everyone and remember:

    I can really relate Shaunie, can you guess what I spent the last 20 minutes doing?  

    Moving everything around dusting and pulling my bed out. 
    I didn't find any which should be good news but that unnerves me?  

    What is it about them that you dislike or fear?  

    I ask because I have a few things so I take steps to make myself feel more comfortable.

    I wear ear plugs during spider season and tuck my trousers in my socks and wear long sleeves shirts. 

    That along with some prebed spring cleaning and a hearty helping of distractions works For me X
