    HoHum....bit kissed off tbh....plenty I should be doing but nothing but apathy to work with.
    I'm going through a waking period atm, & can't remember the last time I slept all night. I may go up to bed early, but lay there doing puzzle books or reading & if my light goes off at 11, that's early! But it's the waking during the night that's getting to me.
    It's not a wake at 3 & can't get back off type of disturbed night, but over & over & over again for maybe 15mins at the most. Then of course I don't have any energy during the day, so I'm probably not physically tired enough to sleep at night! Bl88dy mess innit:-(

    Hiya girlie,
    Work is a mess and will continue to be so.
    I don't have a perm job despite the promises.
    The organisation is a shambles and it's hard to stay cheerful tbh.
    But anyway.....nearly xmas

    I hate to hear what's been going on with you.

    here ya go hun: you know when ilgd says things remind her of us, this reminds me of you:

    "Follow me down to the valley below You know
    Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

    I survived against the will of my twisted folk
    But in the deafness of my world the silence broke
    And said

    "Follow me down to the valley below You know
    Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
    "

    youll know what i mean ;)

    take care hun

    remember your precious too

    I feel good today, thanks for asking.

    I also feel a little pathetic for how I went on yesterday though.

    I guess I am just very up and down at the moment.

    I hope I feel like this tomorrow though because if I do I could make a really good start on my housework!

    I hope everyone else is well today!

    The cuts are in no way serious, very controlled. Last thing I want is for anyone in real life to find out! Just wish I could get control over this. I hadn't cut for so long, and to be doing it again is a big problem :-/

    Hi FG

    how u feelin today?

    Hope you are keeping an eye on your injuries

    I know what you mean, when i self harm i always hide it, or cover it up, dont think about it, I SH seriously for the 1st time in a year recently, strange thing was i knew what i was doing, usually, I have no control and i feel a release or something, but that time i felt better for all of 30 mins, then nothing, just had a very sore arm, and thats when i realised it doesnt do anything for me anymore

    I hope you can gain control and control it hun, i know you can coz you are strong, it takes alot to stop drinking and you have taken that step so just a step at a time eh x

    Its silly really. I can manage to not drink one day at a time. I can manage to not over-eat one day at a time. I can usually manage to not self-harm one day at a time. Just can't seem to do them all!

    That's exactly how I feel!

    I've got some friends who tell me not to cut myself, some who tell me not to drink, and I don't think anyone knows about my eating problems yet.

    I know I'm really not coping atm, I just don't know what to do about it. I was really down and ended up drinking on Saturday, but then one of my friends said he was disappointed in me (as I've given up drinking) and on Sunday I ended up cutting myself.

    I know I should stop, I just can't. I want something to be "less bad" than the rest :o

    Hi mumma

    sorry to hear ya not soo good atm, think we all feelin it atm, maybe its coz the moon is changing, or something like that

    Im not sleeping to well atm...

    but say try a few things

    1. Sleep with a bit of lavendar, beats a smelly man anyday :rotfl:, really, it can help relax you, so might be one to try.

    2. Try listening to relaxing music, something that gets you nice and relaxed. I always like a bit of enya, chills me right out. :D

    3. Before you go to bed, get one of ya offspring to run ya a bath, with nice glowey things and bath bombs :rotfl:, thats should relax you too.

    4. If you cant sleep because of those knees of yours consult doctor,

    5, you could always count sleep, i count smarties :rotfl:

    ok better go before me head falls off :eek:

    Heres one tho, what does it mean when a guy says, we can go for a meal, to the cinema, or for a drink, or all 3, and take it from there?? whats it, and where we gonna take it? :eek:. god im soo innocent arent i? :A:rotfl:


    K, gonna head to bed, or at least try :o

    take care everyone

    Its soo hard when one person telling you not to do this and not to do that. Just tears you apart and gets you questioning yourself

    Do you have any support or someone you can talk to? i have friends but they dont understand depression, but they are supportive, just see me as a live wire as it were :o
    Have to admit ive started drinking again, it seems to help alittle, dont go binge drinking, least i havent for a while, do you drink all the time or on weekends or just when you feel down?

    take care hun x
