When I was having a really hard time sleeping/bad nights after a really bad situation at work, my pastor told me about a meditative prayer to help calm my thoughts. I won't post it here in case it's triggering to someone, but the basic idea was a three syllable phrase as your breathe in and a 5 syllable phrase as you breathe out. You just keep repeating it over and over and over until your mind calms. It's difficult at first, but gets easier. It got me through many rough nights.

I had to sleep with the lights on when I was reading the other stuff by The Silence of the Lambs guy, and that was over 20 years ago.

I think someone has been scaring my black cat. He's sitting on my lap with his face buried in my armpit. He's a house cat and all of the humans are nice to him, so I blame the kitten.

Granite - Sorry about your bad night. I hope tonight is better. I'm going to have to try the Asian pear tea. Right now I am steeping cocoa caramel sea salt. I don't usually go for chocolate flavors, but my Teavana guy told me it is his new favorite.

Hi couchkateers. I haven't been around much. The six month anniversary last week of my mother's death hit me like a ton of bricks. Grief is hard. Depression is hard. Therapy is hard. I don't know how much more I can handle.

My Support Forums is the online community that was originally begun as the Psych Central Forums in 2001. It now runs as an independent self-help support group community for mental health, personality, and psychological issues and is overseen by a group of dedicated, caring volunteers from around the world.
This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
