Another sleepless night

[rustee2011]

Another sleepless one for me. I will most likely dose off during the daytime on the bus. Black tea (too much) is a bad as coffee. However, my mood is not the best at the moment. I have lost some weight but a few hours in the day I feel fine and positive...other times, it's tough. Times like this I would like a 24 hour counsellor to talk to non-stop. I was on anti-depressants over 5 years ago, I really dont want to go down that root again. I am just closing my eyes and rocking myself gently to and fro on the bed. Looking forward to some Craniosacral therapy on Friday, that has helped me in the past.

It is awful when you can't sleep, it feels very alone. Hopefully posting on here helps and the Craniosacral therapy will work wonders for you.

It certainly does. I thought that when I learnt a complimentary therapy(reiki) that it was all I needed. Even now there is such a stigma about depression. Knowledge is power. I can see now my weight meant more to me on a psychological level. Whenever I tried to lose weight on my own. I would get anxious and quickly stop. Only when I joined a group (slimming world) did I achieve some success. The positive is that I am losing weight, and I am having more fruit as snacks as opposed to chocolates and sweets. I have to start seeing Life as an adventure rather than Life is tough as drummed into me as a child.

Hopefully the more depression is talked about and the better peoples understanding becomes the less the stigma will be.
