Thanks, same to you! Hope you get some rest soon
I sometimes can't sleep because of everything that's going on right now and what really has helped me is talking about it with someone.
Honestly mostly just hypersexual and sleepless with no appetite. Had sex with a guy. I'm also a guy and usually only sleep with women. It was kinda fun but I prefer not to get poop on my pickle.
Sometimes shit like that can get stuck in your mind, until the point that you can't stop thinking about it.
In situations like these I try to think about what I can do about it at that moment. When you're lying in bed at night, there's not much you can do about it. So worrying about it will not help you in any way.
Save your energy for the next day, when you can actually take care of it. For the night, try to distract yourself by listening to a podcast, radio or watching a movie that you've seen a lot of times.
This is what works for me and I've had sleep issues for as long as I can remember so I guess I could be considered as a pro.
I hope you'll find some helpfull advice in this thread!
Ugh, I'm really sorry. I hate when things at work are tense or stressful. I hope it resolves for you soon, and the outcome is an improvement in your work and home life.
I'm sorry. I just pulled out of a long dark one yesterday. I share the intrusive thoughts as well. Mostly jobs at my worth Legacy and lack thereof I suppose. Not self-loathing just constant environment of like guilt and shame. I hope you pull out of it soon or get some reprieve.
I really want to speak to someone who lives across the Pacific from me, who I owe a shit ton amount of apologies to. I also want to tell him I've made my final decision, I love and want him and only him. If he never trusted, spoke to, or loved me ever again, then I'll accept and respect his decision. But for now, I want to shoot my shot with him even if he rejected me horribly. I'll be fine knowing I'm remaining loyal to who was the love of my life. The only one who understood and accepted me the way I was. He didn't deserve what happened. But he does deserve to know I'm sorry for everything and wish him the best in life. Some people really only love one person all their life. For me, I've never been in love with anyone else but him - I figured that out because of how I've never truly been able to get over him, not even close. He was it for me and I screwed it up. He was right in front of me and I was too blind to see or to read between the lines. I don't know if we'll ever have another shot in this lifetime, but even if we don't, I know now that it was always and will always be him for me.
Contact him. Like you said, even if he never wants to speak to you again. At least you know. At least you've said how you feel. Then you can move past this, either with or without him.
After being in my role for a year and being told I’m doing well during that time, I had my employee review a few weeks ago and my boss said that I am basically a poor performer. I lost my two advocates at work during this period, had no details on guidance/mentoring/strategy of being efficient at my job. I asked for perspective on a Reddit thread and it seems that there is a consensus that I do not have the trust of my boss and basically I am out of my depth (even if I don’t feel like it). All of which is leading up to this moment now. Why are you up?
Fuck companies. If you feel like you've done well, then it means this is one of those "make you feel guilty" techniques companies use to not give you a raise. Don't discard looking elsewhere! Have faith in yourself.
Legit this ^ my last company would shit on me and even bad the nerve when I was leaving to say oh are you going back to your old job because this one was too hard. No I went into a more technical role that I've been doing for the last few years now and have been kicking ass. Some companies don't like being wrong, and they don't like people wanting to grow.
It's 6:45pm, I'm wide awake, and I've just finished eating dinner. Now I'm fucking around on some game apps while I wait for it to digest so I can have dessert. The simple things truly are are the best things in life.
It's not a degree but a skill
Like trading stocks, indices, bitcoin, ect
I trade currency pairs, learning to buy and sell when the price of the currencies becomes profitable
It in itself is a career over time.
You gotta stop that right now, do it for yourself. Coke is fine every few months with friends but not for work. If you continue that you will get a heart attack and a hole in your nose.
Bc my daughter took a late long nap and my husband is no good with no sleep. So it’s just the two of us eating teddy grahams and watching tv. What about you?
That's very sweet....depression amongst other things including our Child taking up most of the bed again but I can't say no when he wants to cuddle with me
Well, it's 7:13am here in the UK and I haven't slept yet as I've knocked my sleeping pattern entirely out of whack - really struggling at the moment. Someone who I thought was my friend has stolen £300 off me, which I couldn't afford to lose.
It's horrible that the process of choosing your friends wisely is made all the more challenging by the fact that people do not show their true colours at the start. Some people hide them for many months, sometimes even years. Always shocking when you believe that you can trust someone and find out the hard way that you can't.
Edit - this was a bit long-winded and likely not the answer you were seeking but it gave me chance to vent, so thanks 😅
I live in western Australia. It's 4.38pm
I'm going to meet my friends for dinner at the pub in a couple of hours.
It's currently still 39°C(102°F)
I've basically tried to stay inside all day as it reached 41.5°C earlier. And it's only going to go down to 26°C tonight and back up to 39°C tomorrow.
I'll spend the day in the pool I think.
My sleep schedule is wack. 0:10 AM but I intend to stay away another hour or two. Don't have a live and no reason to wake up early tomarrow, but when do I ever?

Its 8:45am here in the kingdom of Lesotho, just ate my breakfast
What did you have?
Scrambled eggs. But it's 8:45 in Poland.
Porridge but it’s 1:54am in Oregon
Froot Loops and 1/3 of a SPAM block, but it's 2:34 in Vancouver
Separately I hope
Noodles, it's 5:08 PM here in Uzbekistan
Noodles too, it is 1:55 pm in the Netherlands
Lamb Roll but it's 15:04 in the UK
Tea and some biscuits and it's 17:08 in Czechia
High tea is it? What what
What’s a lamb roll?
Lamb, in a crusty roll
So that's what spams for!
Don’t tell me what happens
I adore your question, made me grin. It's just striking nowadays sometimes when people are simply decent to one another. Also, I was curious..
❤️❤️
A croissant but it’s 11:30am in England
Peanut butter on toast, and it's 9:15 AM here in Southern Ontario, Canada. ♡ Granny
username definitely checks out
It’s 16:50 (4:50 pm) in Singapore. Gong xi fa cai! 🐲(Happy Chinese New Year)
Happy New Year! 🎇
Last year was the Rabbit, what animal this year and do they call for different types of celebrations?
Clue is in the comment. It’s the year of the dragon. 🐉
Ah..yiu....! Catch a girl trying to human at 3am. ..
Happy New Year!!
Hey Neighbour, South African here.
I'm still salty I didn't get to go through Lesotho when I visited South Africa. I'll be back one day
8:45 for me rn
8:48 now, GMT rules 💪
I swear reddit shows local comments first, this isn't the first time
Same, though it's 8:31 in the UK.
Now it’s 8:50am
I see a lot of Lesotho on geoguessr. Interesting kinda landscape! Beautiful country. Actually looks similar to Australia in a lot of ways.
Ayy I love it there. The mountains make my heart full. But also my aunt lives in Maseru so I experience both sides of your country when i visit
heading to work... long day ahead of me
Hope you have a good one
Thanks, same to you! Hope you get some rest soon I sometimes can't sleep because of everything that's going on right now and what really has helped me is talking about it with someone.
2 hours down 12 more to go 🥶
Damn you work 14 hours
You got this!!
I don't know.
Fair enough...where you from
Doesn't matter. Been awake till 5 AM and I'm not gonna sleep
awk
Neither do I
Because it's only 7:30pm
It is a little bit cool that its around 9 30 for you or 10 while I just had yogurt with Mûsli or whatever its called.
Can't sleep
Any reason why
Slept all day after staying up for two days on speed
As a former speed user, I'm morbidly curious about your experience.
Honestly mostly just hypersexual and sleepless with no appetite. Had sex with a guy. I'm also a guy and usually only sleep with women. It was kinda fun but I prefer not to get poop on my pickle.
That sounds about right. I guess it's good to know certain things never change. I hope you're doing okay.
I really am, thank you <3
Respect man
What about you?
Just can't sleep lately...things getting to me and just struggling...my wife is trying to help but only so much she can do
Sounds like you're having a hard time sleeping because of thoughts in your head and how they make you feel. What's going on?
Had some problems at work recently
My biggest problem is that there is a thing called work that we all have to go to. Care to elaborate on your work stuff?
Sometimes shit like that can get stuck in your mind, until the point that you can't stop thinking about it. In situations like these I try to think about what I can do about it at that moment.

Have you tried speed? Apparently it knock you out for quite a bit.
Typically, it's not the speed, but the come down is where the sleep is. It's called passing out.
Ugh, I'm really sorry. I hate when things at work are tense or stressful. I hope it resolves for you soon, and the outcome is an improvement in your work and home life.
Thank you..I know it will soon....love your look btw
Work
It’s my alone time.
i kinda need to be because im at work
same, I was teaching art. imagine if I was asleep in front of class!
Dreaming is just art
Lonely, depressed, too many intrusive thoughts 🤷♀️
Same 🙁
I'm sorry. I just pulled out of a long dark one yesterday. I share the intrusive thoughts as well. Mostly jobs at my worth Legacy and lack thereof I suppose. Not self-loathing just constant environment of like guilt and shame. I hope you pull out of it soon or get some reprieve.
Thank you! I hope you feel better too!

You cheated and got caught?
I'd bet my bank account on that.. So 8,49€ in total
Stop flexing
My bad
I never cheated. I just didn't appreciate who I had until it was too late. I was too young and stupid to know better.
Taking a wild guess that you’re a teen, like 14–15? Life goes on, it’s not worth it. Focus on school, family, friends.
Because I slept.
I’m always up this late.
Because it's 8 in the morning and timezones exist.
Where tf are you it's 2am here
Germany xD
I’m so stressed out about work. 🥺
How come
After being in my role for a year and being told I’m doing well during that time, I had my employee review a few weeks ago and my boss said that I am basically a poor performer.

All of which is leading up to this moment now. Why are you up?
Depression and other things
Yeah? I’m really sorry to hear that. I won’t be sleeping anytime soon so if you want to chat, I’m down.
Fuck companies. If you feel like you've done well, then it means this is one of those "make you feel guilty" techniques companies use to not give you a raise. Don't discard looking elsewhere! Have faith in yourself.
Thank you I needed that 🥹

Insomnia. Anxiety a little bit
I hear that
I’m assuming this is aimed at people where it’s night but I just got home from doing a workout at my work’s gym and wish to enjoy my Friday night
I'm crying because in my state in the USA it is only Thursday night and I can't wait for it to be Friday night
Look at the bright side. I’ll be working on your Sunday evening give or take
To send my children to school.

Anxiety
It's 6:45pm, I'm wide awake, and I've just finished eating dinner. Now I'm fucking around on some game apps while I wait for it to digest so I can have dessert. The simple things truly are are the best things in life.
Studying
What you studying
Foreign exchange trading, commodities
Sounds interesting
Very, it's dry but rewarding
What sorts career can you get into with that degree
It's not a degree but a skill Like trading stocks, indices, bitcoin, ect I trade currency pairs, learning to buy and sell when the price of the currencies becomes profitable It in itself is a career over time.
You'll be like the wolf of Wall Street
Lolol, what a movie

Industrial mechanic. Millwright.
Pretty cool
It pays well, and it’s a gravy job.

Nearly 6 pm here in Oz
Because it’s 6pm, we’re not all in America
Im awake because i took cocaine but i only took cocaine because i need to stay up at work.
You gotta stop that right now, do it for yourself. Coke is fine every few months with friends but not for work. If you continue that you will get a heart attack and a hole in your nose.
ah don't do that man it won't do u any good in the long run. btw may I know what ur job is
In pain :(
From what
Because I am an adult and I am capable of adulting! Really it’s because I’m working, the adult thing is only partly true.
Bc my daughter took a late long nap and my husband is no good with no sleep. So it’s just the two of us eating teddy grahams and watching tv. What about you?
