How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Grateful, tired, confused, hungry and as always the usual worried. Also a bit sad but it's hard for me to acknowledge that one (just don't want to give it too much of my "focus or attention" I guess, but don't want to "deny" whatever I'm feeling either, ya it is a bloody hard balance sometimes, hence part of why I said "confused" lol).

Wishing for everyone to be feeling good, and for those who currently aren't, that you will be soon :)

Tired but sort of relieved. It's a holiday weekend in the UK, and as I've done quite a lot of work this week, am looking forward to chilling out and resting for an extra day, with a short week to follow. First thing to avoid is my Saturday AM insomnia, last week I didn't sleep at all from 11am Friday until about midnight Saturday, so any sleep will be an improvement! 🤞

Tysm @AmberMarie and @seabird for your kind words. You are right Amber that just cos it “could be worse” doesn’t mean I should discount whatever I’m feeling.

I absolutely hope for those positive things too seabird, not only for myself but for everyone, always ;)

Hope you’re both well, and if you are wanting them then I also offer you both big hugs of gratitude, comfort and support :) *hug*grouphug2

Awake. Only 3.40am so in limbo - still a slim chance I might drift off and really don't want to get up and be awake for 36 hours again but fed up of lying awake. Took a valerian and magnesium tablet. This insomnia is fucking nuts.

Hey @AvidFan - Just wanted to say I’m really sorry you have been struggling with insomnia. I hope you will be able to get a good sleep and not be awake for so long like that again. Not sure how many “things” you’ve tried but I did a search for sites that listed lots of different “suggestions” of things to try, so just thought I’d share it here with you in case you’re interested in checking it out ;)

Hope it will prove to be helpful for you, and I’m wishing you lots of luck with it! :)

Thanks. It comes and goes. Ironically I did drift off to sleep for a few hours after posting on here and playing on my phone (supposed to be one of the worst things to do!). I was dreading having to get up with no sleep at all but at least I got a bit. 8.20am is almost a civilised get up time. I feel tired and bleary eyed but at least have a few days off now! Thanks for your kind words 😊

Its my first time going to the gym for my upper body and I came home and slept as if i was dead and woke up with a headache. Im pretty sure its gonna hurt like a bitch starting from tomorrow till god knows when. Previously it has taken a week for the pain to go away because my upper body is so weak. I gotta say, what the hell.
Sorry about the headache. Glad you are giving it a go. Drink extra water, bc helps with the sorteness and headaches too.
