How are you feeling?

[Alana]

just to let everyone know i'm still around and reading everyday. thursday am fell out of bed and fractured my wrist in 6 places. how is that from a 2ft.drop.
anyway i'm typing this with my left hand whilst my right hand is in a cast. my fingers are like chipolatas and the pain killers hit and miss. go to the fracture dept tomorrow to see if the traction worked and if not i'm supposed to have an operation. i'm sorry there are no capital letters but just wanted to let everyone know i've not abandoned ship. love and kindest regards to you all.

Thanks for telling us, Tuatha. I will be crossing my fingers for you to have a quick recovery and for the appointment tomorrow to go well. Let us know. Big hugs

Lately, ca the past two weeks, I've repeatedly been waking up around 3:00 or 3:30 in the middle of the night after having a nightmare, then having real trouble falling asleep again. Interestingly, my wife has lately had nightmares, too. My energy levels have been very low, maybe because of this disturbance in sleep patterns, or...maybe it's something else. At times, it feels like someone or something is intentionally disturbing me during the night, pretty much exactly at 3:00.

Last night I dreamt about how there's no free will – I was "shown" how everything we do, and everything that happens is 'directed' and decided by a hidden hand, and not in a good way. It felt quite real and convincing, quite disturbing, and it made me angry! Of course, after having woken up I do believe there is free will, and that we have it if we choose to. However, the nightmare made me wonder...maybe more than what we suspect of what we do and what happens is directed and steered by 4DSTS? Were 'they' boasting about their capabilities in my dream?

Me too, 3am, give or take a few minutes, and I don’t go back to sleep. I don’t always remember what I’m dreaming about, constant sleep deprivation making me foggy (more than usual, by the end of the day reading is very difficult, words moving around on the page or screen)

Your dream is interesting. I’ve been having bouts of real anger and resentment towards anyone who has ever wronged me, including myself, mostly directed towards my parents, though others too, misusing their authority in an abusive and neglectful way. I know everything that’s ever happened is all part of a design by 4DSTS to keep us locked in our own prisons and the resentment I feel is reinforcing that prison, it’s feels like me kicking and screaming that I want out, ‘you can’t keep me hostage, you don’t have power over me’
Both of my parents in the last 2 weeks on separate occasions mocked me when I told them about how I’m struggling with life situations re lack of sleep and having a sick partner. My Dad straight out said ‘toughen up princess’ (I heard him but not on the level he meant it) and my mum purposely directed her compassion elsewhere as a joke when I said all I’m after is some empathy, I’m not asking for some solutions.
They are separated for 42 years but acted in such similar ways that it made me think something was working through them. Dad goes on to say his great his life is and he has no complaints and then mum messages me after getting back from a holiday to tell me how tired she is… WTF ??¿

Anyway, lots of my own shizzle to work though. I believe your dream holds a lot of significance and is very very close to the truth of the distortion we are in.
Thanks for sharing

Ditto that.
Wish you all the best tomorrow and an extra speedy recovery Tuatha de Danaan!

Oh no! Sorry to hear that @Tuatha de Danaan, I hope the recovery is smooth and that you aren't in too much pain?!

 

[Arwenn]

I am sorry to hear about the fracture @Tuatha de Danaan. I hope that you find some pain relief and I second getting some Comfrey cream. I would also suggest some Rescue remedy too if you can get a hold of some.

Look after yourself and wishing you a speedy recovery. Big hugs

Sounds painful, fingers crossed you make a good recovery without the surgery. Thinking about you and hoping you heal quickly.

Get well soon and keep us posted!

Same as others, I had nighmares, stressful dreams, I woke up several times in the night, got up tired...I usually mumble in my sleep, but this went to another level these last weeks.

Wow, I slept the exact same way. Woke up at 4AM from a stressful dream. I usually sleep through the night without fail. Then I had more stressful dreams after going back to sleep.

 

[Thebull]

Like several other people I'm waking up anytime between 2:30 to 3:30. Very difficult to go back to sleep. When eventually get to sleep not much more then s couple more hours.
I don't seem to be having any stressful dreams but a feeling of unease though I can't put my finger on it.
I'm unable to exercise due to a muscle tear injury on my calf which hasn't helped.

Add me to the list of people with sleep woes. I'm getting at best about 6hrs interrupted sleep most nights, and I wake up groggy and miserable the next day. I'm also having dark dreams, very unsettling stuff mainly. I've had no sleep tonight, and it's 6am as I write this. I'll probably need a nap by the afternoon at this rate, which will refresh me, but will cause me to struggle to sleep the following night, prolonging the grim cycle. My nighttime regime of melatonin and olanzapine used to make me sleepy, but even they're not working now, it's really frustrating.

Poor @Tuatha de Danaan !! I hope you heal soon, surgery or not! That must be painful! Do you want people to send you Reiki, and/or prayers?

 

[Aeneas]

So sorry to hear of your fall, @Tuatha de Danaan. Wishing you a speedy and painfree recovery. Reiki could be a good option for a gentle support.

I just checked my sleep watch, and this month I've woken up at similar times (between 3-4 o'clock) almost every night. I don't clearly remember any dreams though. Normally I have trouble falling asleep, but once I finally fall asleep, I tend to sleep until the morning. I guess that it could also be part of sleep cycles, combined with stress and other things.

Oh poor thing, @Tuatha de Danaan, must be rather painful, and quite frustrating trying to surf through all your daily tasks. Hopefully operation won't be necessary, but in any case I wish you a complete healing blessed by as much patience as needed.
