    Hey @independent_ had a bit of a rough day as the natural follow up to a rough few weeks so not the best. How about you?

    @GreenTea I'm guessing you're not doing too great then? Either that or your power is out. You okay / wanna talk?

    The light in my shower doesn't work. I've got pretty good at doing my hair in the dark. I just make sure everything is in the right places so I know what Im using

    Hey, is anybody up? I usually don’t fall asleep until about 4am so I’m just dreading not being able to fall asleep until then. Although today, I went to sleep around 4am and woke up around 8am. I then crashed at 12pm and woke up at 5pm so I don’t know whether that will impact when I sleep tonight 😔

    Hey @Passionflower

    I'm trying to sleep but my mind is all racked up. So what's up??
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 123 The Mix Convert
    @lovemimoon I’m sorry to hear that. Would you like to talk about what’s on your mind? I’ve had a horrible past few days and I’m feeling quite a bit of anxiety which doesn’t help but I’m trying to relax by listening to a sleep podcast. No luck yet though unfortunately
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    @Passionflower I'm just having friendship issues and I've been avoiding my phone, cos I'm afraid that I will work myself up to some kind of rage-induced anxiety attack? A rage attack?

    I'm sorry to hear that as well! Do you want to talk about it? Let off steam? <3

    Have you tried listening to nature sounds? Meditative techniques?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Ex-Teenage Dirtbag Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    I don't know if this will help you guys but something that helps me sleep is going outside or lodging my head out the window and breathing the fresh air. If you go outside in the middle of the night where I live you might get stabbed 8 times then have your corpse robbed but you can just stick to your garden. Basically just fresh air helps me sleep, and it might help you too
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 123 The Mix Convert
    @lovemimoon Ah that sounds like a really stressful thing to be dealing with 😔 Have you felt like this before? If so, have you found anything that helps you to cope with it? It sounds positive that you’re taking a step back from something that you feel is likely to trigger you though. I’ve tried listening to rain sounds before and that can sometimes help. The podcast that I’m listening to now is a guided meditation for sleep. In terms of talking about it, I think I’m okay at the moment but thank you for asking <3
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    I should not have laughed at that. :joy::sweat_smile: So you live that kind of area too, @Apollo?
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    @Passionflower I have, for a very long time but it's starting to take a toll on me physically. I go to the park for calm myself down but that seems to be the only thing working so far. Any tips?

    Tell us how that podcast goes!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Ex-Teenage Dirtbag Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    @lovemimoon oui
    @Passionflower does guided meditation work?

    Rough nights all around then I guess. I hear you about tryna stay off your phone @lovemimoon a big part of my recent anxiety has been to do with receiving bad news. Feeling like every email, text and phone call is coming to convey devastating news. It sucks.

    @Past User I'm sorry to hear that. :/ Have you been doing okay?

    @Apollo Relate to your pain, g. Tbh, I still take a nightly stroll and it's kinda worth the risk. Sometimes.

    She has come on leaps and bounds . Little Dottie was terrified and is now enjoying lots of love and hugs with us

    Aww! @Millie2787 Glad Little Dottie's okay! How old is she?
  • Millie2787Millie2787 Community Connector Posts: 5,220 Part of The Furniture
    Well her advert and the women said 2 years 3 months but her DOB in her passport works out only 1 year 9 months ! And it looks like the poor girl has had a litter too @lovemimoon

    @Millie2787 Aww, poor little thing! Do you know what happened to her litter?
  • Millie2787Millie2787 Community Connector Posts: 5,220 Part of The Furniture
    @lovemimoon not sure it seems her previous owners have bred her then ripped her away from her babies and got rid of her . She’s a cavalier King Charles so puppies go for 2k+ plus at a time

    @Millie2787 2k+? I'm guessing that her previous owners were involved in something illegal?
