  • What’s in my bag?

    I found a list of different interesting things to fill in here when I’m struggling with thoughts. Cheating but more help than cheat. I’m still tired. I managed to drop off around 5am on the sofa surrounded by dogs. I’m shattered but it did the trick, I didn’t toss and turn thinking of things, I…

  • It worked

    The method of trying to banish the sleep demon was unorthodox but it served its purpose. I couldn’t see the words on the screen anymore as I was that tired. It was around 5am, and I managed to secure a spot on the sofa with a few bribes for the dogs. I fell asleep instantly.…

  • Sleep demons

    My eyes hurt. I’m sure this is down to a lack of sleep. Got the screen on the dimmest mode possible which is helping. I’m having another rough day. Its been relentless for what will be a week tomorrow. I don’t want to go to sleep. Not for some petulant reason but more if I…

  • “Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.”

    So, which is it? Are we alone in the universe, or are we not? Both possibilities are equally terrifying. Always loved this quote. Something about it just resonates in my head.

  • Imploded brains

    I was going to do a QOTD but need to do some typing therapy. So, there was a saga with my meds not turning up on time, only a couple that I needed were missing from the several I take. I started a new increase in meds on Monday which ruined the first part of…

  • The importance of sleep

    Sleep. A fundamental part of all of us, great and small. Can’t live without it but these days I can’t live with it. I think it all started a few days ago. Might of been a week. Horredous nightmares reliving past trauma resulting in really poor sleep, waking up in a sweat or moving alot…

  • Thats all she wrote.

    So. I think I’ve come to the point where I have concluded that I’m done. Done with life and existing. I’m just tired, so so tired of being ill, being a bother and a hassle to everyone. I dont have a date in mind. I just feel ready. Ready for when that moment comes and…
