How do I control what happens in sleep?

Hi there! I don't know of any way we can control what happens during sleep since that's the time that the brain does it's thing of healing, processing, etc. But there are things we can do that might help us to have a more relaxed night of sleep. Here are just some ideas:

-Listen to soothing music before sleep like gentle nature sounds or Classical music so that you relax.

-Try to keep yourself as well rested as you can so your brain can have time to do what it needs to do while you're sleeping without being overwhelmed because it hasn't had time to heal/process things, etc.

If anyone has any other ideas, please share! :)

I was feeling some pain earlier with mammogram

I keep putting mine off. I know I shouldn't. Part of it is the pain, but most of it is the emotional discomfort I feel in stripping down and being so exposed.

My therapist use to say if men had to do that on their testicles they'd come up with a better test! ;)

It will get better, I just feel like I'm taking ten steps back in therapy just from coming "home".

Many people revert to their old roles when they are with family. It is really difficult not to. On one level you know you're an adult, other time's you feel like you are a child again. Not only is it difficult to not revert, it is difficult for other's not to treat you as such. There are times I feel like a child, or that I am being treated as a child even though I'm now 46 years old. I try very hard not to let that happen, but, unfortunately, it does happen.

P.S. I keep wanting to sing that old song...'There's a rat in my kitchen what am I gonna do..'

Haha CC, that was my first thought. Sorry about your little visitor, hope they can get him soon. Problem is, they like to invite their mates in as well :eek:

This week, I feel it is all about me. I am determined not to be overwhelmed this Christmas and as a result, I'm feeling relaxed and calm.

I'm feeling a little nervous as I have to go see a facial surgeon tomorrow afternoon about my clicking jaw. H is driving me so I don't have to worry about that.

I'm excited about seeing my girls and my brother over Christmas. We plan a quiet family time.

Hurt, angry, feel like yelling and ripping someones head off.

Seems the car we bought almost a year ago was a death trap, and not our fault.

 

[CraftyCath]

Oh Amethist I'm so sorry! You have a right to be angry.:devilish:

I hate these unscrupulous people who doon't care who they hurt.

Massive :hug:'s to you and H. x

 

[Kim500]

I'm really sorry about that amethist... *Hugs*

I am feeling better now I have got over the initial shock.

Hubby has now crashed and is in bed because of all this, and it has blown half our Christmas plans out of the water.

We have delivery of another car on the 4th of January, which will be checked by an independent body.

 

[CraftyCath]

Typical isn't it Amethist.

We are really short of cash. H's Dad has given us a cheque for Christmas but it is dated 24th December so we can't cash it. So grateful for it but I wish we could have it now. :eek:

I hope your H will be OK, I know you will make the best of things, will be thinking of you. x

 

[Kim500]

I wish we could have it now. :eek:

I totally understand!!!

Wishing that we could all have an easier time of it. Hoping that my own problems can be solved. Daydreaming of a better place, where I am well and life is good. More exhausted than I ever thought that I would be able to cope with and not sure if I can take any more.
