any takers on a sleep disorders forum? have discussed it before. may put a note in for consideration.

I think it would be the biggest crossover forum on the site. So many folks wander the halls here at all hours it would be good to have a meeting place.
I have personally had my 3 hours of sleep this 24 hr period so I am up and no one else in the family is.
I am thankful for my Hw friends.

Hi!

I've just cast my vote for a sleep disorders forum. It would be great to have something to visit to when I can't sleep and no one to talk to. Can't play games all the time, you know! Looking forward to it!

it was just an idea. i would get told to go to bed and settle down!!

Ha!!!

I believe Trina mentioned this to the other mods, hope it goes through...

Hugs, Karen...

oh that was nice.

I just started going through other forums. I started with the Fibro forum, but would LOVE a Sleep Disorder forum. Great place for the folks that never sleep to be :).

Sleep seems to be one of the most common issues across all of them.

Yes, indeed I put it our there for other mods to support. Achcem.

Best I have so far is not to be looking for it we did not get ours. Could be a truth. I will wait for Peters answer.

www.mindful.org/Health%20and%20Healing/7-tips-for-getting-more-sleep

HERE is a link to make us stronger is our truth of needing sleep. So this is what I am proposing. If Admin, Peter, says no for good reasons that we go on our way and start a thread on -depression caused sleep depravation. I welcome, chronic Pain, and anxiety to join us in adding a daily thread in such a way, in this way we keep the subject focused and in one thread.

Comments?
Peace
Trina

very good. your thread is most likely going to be the go. -but wouldn't be nice and in my view apt if a forum was made available. everything remains the same when nothing changes.

Jamie,

Have you emailed Peter about this? It is really up to him. I think it would be a good idea...

Hugs, Karen...
Posted 1/9/2015 6:31 AM (GMT 0)
I am absolutely voting for it, just can see another perspective...the time and energy (and $) involved in adding another forum.

But here goes: yes Peter, please consider this!
Posted 1/9/2015 6:53 AM (GMT 0)
i wanted to gauge support first. will send.
Posted 1/9/2015 7:07 AM (GMT 0)
e-mail sent.
Posted 1/9/2015 10:34 AM (GMT 0)

I hope he considers it Jamie. I think it would be helpful to many..

Hugs, Karen...

Admin, Peter responded on the Mod Forum saying that he thought this was a good idea. He will add it to the list of changes he would like to see completed on the HW site this coming year.

Well done our Happy Turtle, everyone meditate, pray or send good vibes, whatever you do for good energy!.

Peace
Trina

See what you did turtle? Good job!
Posted 1/11/2015 8:19 AM (GMT 0)
just trying to be proactive. thanks.

I would be on that one a ton! So many sleeping disorders and the links to other disorders. I would like to see it happen

Just adding my 2 cents...since I suffer occasional insomnia...would be a welcome resource for me.
Posted 1/12/2015 4:12 AM (GMT 0)
I hope admin peter is able to do this.
I screwed up tonight, big time. I fell asleep during the payoffs...I know how could I miss the last quarter????
With the minor point being that I slept for a couple of hours. So, no more sleep for me until tomorrow sometime. I just cant get my sleep cycle anywhere close to typical (I avoid the word normal). Either I finally sleep at 6am....or not at all. Or rarely, like today I rack out on the couch in the early evening. I am exhausted but know from the last year of experience that there is no sleep in my near future.
I think I might just go into town and finish up my grocery shopping. Lines should be short.

bugger about the playoffs. sleep, yargh. i have been in bed all day today, and not out in 2 weeks. super depressed.
Posted 1/12/2015 8:49 AM (GMT 0)
Maybe a walk would help clear your blues a bit? I just went grocery shopping. Its so much easier at midnight....got a great parking spot!
But now I am working a puzzle, and trying to remember what sleeping was like. What a real life was like.
I try to go outside at least once a day. even if its just to feed the cats....the bed makes me cry too much and I get cabin fever if I don't get some fresh air.
Sending you happy thoughts.
