    @Apollo yes it kinda did feel like finishing an exam early now I think about it! It was so weird like loads of people just sitting doing nothing. Even reading the entire leaflet they gave me didn’t fill the time.

    Yeah I’ve heard that you need to keep moving your arm if it’s sore, but I think lying on it is just a little step too far :joy: I hope it doesn’t last too long, my other arm is sore too but I went swimming the other day and hurt a muscle in it, so that’s why. But I have 2 sore arms now lol.

    I’m glad you’re feeling better, it might feel like silly worries sometimes but that worry is very real so it’s important to look after yourself either way.

    @independent_ yeah I get that, stupid things can sometimes just fuck with you like that, even worse when it's something you just can't control

    Hope your swimming arm gets better soon, the vaccine one won't last long but it is pretty inconvenient

    Also during GC while I was cycling I met a cat! I don't know if you'll remember but the night I joined this site was the day I pet a cat for the first time, and now that number is 2, I'll send pictures

    It kept running up into my leg so I could pet it and doing little meows, it would also look up at me when it wanted to be pet its face was so cute and it stuck around for ages it was so amazing I love cats so much

    @Apollo Awwww!!!! That’s so cute! I do remember that actually, I don’t think I’ve petted many cats in my life, my sister is allergic so we could never really have them anywhere near us. I personally prefer dogs but cats are cute too!!!

    I think I need to have a serious think about my own sleep schedule!

    @independent_ when do you normally sleep/wake up?
  • independent_independent_ Community Champion Posts: 9,015 Supreme Poster
    You know how that emergency SOS thing on iPhones? You have to press the lock button 5 times?

    I tried to power off my phone and accidentally pressed it 5 times and a horrible alarm started on my phone and it counted down to calling 999.

    Absolutely shat myself.

    Christ.

    I’m usually asleep by now tbh @Apollo and awake by around 9.30 or 10. But tonight I am not the slightest bit tired

    @independent_ this is the worst mine has ever been, last night I tried to just not sleep but I slept from around 12PM to 3PM, and I'm still somehow awake, this is like the second time this week this has happened

    I would have shat myself too to be honest, noise it makes is freaky

    @Apollo the worst mine tends to get is staying up till 5am or so, every night then waking up at 9am or so, I know when mine gets that bad there’s a problem. My meds used to help but they make no difference now. I was on a good schedule for weeks, going to sleep at about 11 and waking up at 7 or 8. But that was when I genuinely felt better in myself. Not anymore lol.

    Honestly the noise was the worst part it was so loud and calling 999 reminds me of the few scary times I’ve had to call it, ugh. That feature is so important but bloody hell.

    Oh damn. Did you guys crash???

    Nooo! Damn, your conversation was interesting as well! :confounded:

    EDIT:
    By interesting, I mean it was very insightful and educational, and totally not creepy at all.

    @independent_ I agree, happiness and sleep schedule are totally linked, I remember being so happy when I had a good schedule and I'd just do what I wanted in the day, thats before I started struggling with my mental health and honestly I wish I had that back.

    With the 999 thing I do wonder why it makes a noise though, it's so freaky and I feel like it would function perfectly even if it didn't make a noise, it would even be better in some situations

    @lovemimoon I'm still here, I just had quite a personal conversation with my brother, which is why I was gone for a bit, and I was kind of drunk so I was trying to conceal that. He was being open about things important to him though and honestly I don't feel like the alcohol affected me much cause of course I genuinely care about him and what he was telling me
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    @Apollo Ahh. Are you okay?? <3
  • Former MemberFormer Member Ex-Teenage Dirtbag Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    @lovemimoon I'm good thanks it was stuff to do with him, he was telling me about things he was going through

    I dunno man it's really sad I'd rather talk about something else

    @lovemimoon I've not seen Record of Ragnarok, what's that?
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    @Millie2787 That sounds amazing right now. :confounded: Is Morrison's open 24/7??

    Oooh @Apollo It's a manga adaptation! It's essentially humans vs Gods! :joy:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Ex-Teenage Dirtbag Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    @lovemimoon ooh cool? Does it use mythology as a basis, like is it Greek gods or roman or whatever, or just original characters? (Due to it's name i imagine it's Norse?)

    I remember I used to want to be a writer, because good storytelling is something I just fucking adore. I'd pondered the idea of a god slayer before (because its so cool and inspirational, can be used for metaphors too) but the idea of how a non-god can kill/defeat a god has been something I find difficult to make interesting. Like the god could have a weakness, like Superman's kryptonite but thats not too interesting to me.

    God I'm sorry I'm drunk I'm rambling so bad. Anyway is it well written cause see if it is I totally want to watch it

    Hey @GreenTea you okay?
  • independent_independent_ Community Champion Posts: 9,015 Supreme Poster
    @Apollo I find for me when I’m doing better, I have the motivation to fix my sleep and I actually want to sleep at night and be productive in the daytime. But at the moment that’s just not there and I’d rather the day was shorter tbh.

    It would be better without the noise, I think you can turn it off though. Just gave me such a fright and I struggled to sleep after that lol, finally fell asleep at about 3.30
