Works during the day, doodles at night.
honestly, they can sense something is up. just the min when i returned home holding my dad from car accident and nano looked worried and both kitties immediately jumped on my bed. and not just that but before, nano is the clingiest, he love watching what i do, accompanied me to throw out trash and washing dishes. and miu will always be there on my feet when i wake up and both kitties are always in my room every night. 🥰

Thinking about the past and getting emotional. Wondering why my ex-husband acted like I was invisible and that trickled down to my children. Yes I should have just left, but not for someone else. Sorry if TMI. I just don't know sometimes if I'll ever get over this. Sometimes I think my life is ok, then I break down.

That happened to me 2 years ago for 11 days. Crazy making. Try and find some things to help get to sleep
Thank you so much, for your compassionate response. I wake up in panic, in the middle of the night, with intense horrible thoughts, and then, that's it. It's an ongoing thing, which I can't seem to stop.
Hope you're not alone for long. That is one of my problems, which makes this worse. *hug and best wishes to you.

Thank you. I know the intense response to the lack of sleep especially when it’s for a number of days. I don’t know what you’ve tried but if you want to pm me I’ve got a number of things that I’ve tried and are used by many with some success. Pm me if you want further suggestions .

Thinking about the past can make anyone emotional, whether that past was good or bad. If it was good, it can make you emotional because those times are over. If it was bad, it can make you emotional because... well because it was bad. I don't know why your ex-husband behaved the way he did. It's possible you'll go your whole life and never really understand why he was like that. An important thing to think about is that the things he did might not have had anything to do with you. It's possible it had more to do with him and something he was going through. Or maybe not. I don't know. I'm not exactly sure what I'm trying to say. But I hope, as painful as the past was, that something good is waiting for you in the future.

I hope this comes to an end and your sleep returns fully Bergerac, You're safe and supported here to say why the sleep is being wrecked. I'll add my 2cents for what it's worth and say that when I started running my sleep got better.
Thank you so much, as always, for such kindness, and caring enough to respond. I don't do enough by way of exercise and don't have any particular focus, currently. So there's definitely an element of that, to this, as you say.

I feel as though society tells us that we should feel lonely if we're single, but I don't think that's the truth. I still see life as worthwhile. We just compare our own lives to others' much too often. If they have something that we don't have, then we must not be good enough. Just because our circumstances are different doesn't mean that we all need what others have.

I am the same way with my divorce. I’m not invisible to my daughter but his life is what I would’ve wanted. It hurts me to know that. But I’m in a different place because I see my grandson. If I didn’t then I would’ve ended my life already so you are stronger than me. Lean on us, lean on your fiancé and we’ll get you through. Maybe we together can get through this time together.
i guess I wanted to let you know that I understand you and I am with you in spirit.

I'm the same way S. He has the wife, the house and the children for the holidays. It's been like that for years and I used to stay in bed for days just eating pies, I know that sounds silly but it's true. Now he and his wife get to see my grandson and it's just way it is until I work up the nerve to ask my daughter if I can see him, but I don't want to scare her away. She will text me back with pictures of him when I initiate on a holiday. Perhaps it's a start. Maybe motherhood has softened her.

Thank you for being my friend across the miles. And for what it's worth, I think you're a strong person who's been through a lot this past month. *console
