I'm not fussy, just worried my pouch won't like things! My mum shops at morrisons so I'll sort out for her to take me, thanks for the tips xx

ffs! Sick of these bad dreams!! Tonight's was rape, stabbed, shot, tasered, kidnapped and spiders!!! Don't wanna go back to sleep!

I don't know why they've started up again. Haven't had them this bad in over a year and they've been almost every night this week. I'm so tired from being up through the night after them... I used to be able to go back to sleep but I can't recently as they're just carrying on from where I woke up so fed up and it's only the start of them :'(

I have tortilla wraps most days.. I'm wandering if it because I'm eating more carbs than I was.. I just don't know what to eat and I'm getting so bored and frustrated with it. I'm eating mainly wraps or crackers with salad foods, ham or some sort or sandwich filler thing or cheese and chicken.. I think I'm finding it hard because I hate cooking from scratch for one person and I just don't have the space in my freezer to freeze any more meals. I feel like all I do is moan about it :/ xx

It's a pain cooking for one...Well uninspiring...No one eats wat I do, so similar... boil in bag fish sauce with veg yummy, I still love b.beans n cheese...the Heinz small tins of ravioli (less than 150cals) & macaroni cheese (less than 175calls) are lush.

Re dreams, I have nasty ones....not every night ....always related to 'unfinished business' & 'stress' .... try downloading sum relaxation music & sounds, it may help XXX

So sorry your having bad dreams might be worth buying relaxing stuff for your room make it like a sensory room with lights music all soft and relaxing I know someone did this and it helped them loads to just drift back off

I'm not keen on beans, don't like the texture.. I have spaghetti, ravioli, macaroni cheese tinned etc though.. Not a fish person either, fish fingers are the closest I get to eating fish! I'm not a fussy person when it comes to food.. I'm just a worrier about having a bad time with something as I don't want to hurt my pouch! It's annoying lol

That's the thing, I normally have these dreams when there's a problem happening but there's nothing happening like what was happening when I had the last lot over a year a go.. The other night I had a dream that my mum had an episode of dimentia... Never had one like that and I just couldn't get back to sleep what so ever after that. Was awake from about 2am till gone 6an then up at half 7... I know the shape/murder dreams are linked to conflict, I just can't figure out where the conflict is.. I've tried music, all types.. Doesn't help xx

I can't sleep with lights on, has to be almost pitch black (only light that comes in my room is from outside my front door, (the communal light on the stairs of my flats) and that can be annoying for me.. I've tried all different types if music too. Going to put my furry blanket in bed tonight see if that helps.. I don't need a comfort blanket, never have until Christmas when I was bought a furry blanket and I slept with it for 2 weeks rubbing it all the time :/ haven't had it in bed since January though.. Will try it tonight.. Xx

Hope you get a decent night sleep tonight Hun x x

your antidepressants might be giving you the nightmares hun, i get them on Lofepramine, vivid dreams is a side effect. it might just be the vicious circle of no sleep and bad dreams, sometimes it can get to you like that. try listening to some quiet music while you are trying to sleep, that works for me. i made a playlist of everyday songs, but nothing too bouncy or loud, its perfect for quiet times like trying to sleep. If not, theres a good app you can get called Sleep bug, it has a music box mode, so you regress back to being 6 lol but it does work xx

ugh Kirsty bad dreams suck i suffer terribly with violent ones which rake up my past and leave me feeling pretty crappy, the only thing i found helped was giving myself Reiki (a form of hands on healing) if you've heard of it.......... i'm not suggesting you go and get trained but learning some of the hand positions may help x x x x bless ya its no fun

 

[WeightlossDreamer]

Www this reiki malarkey sounds great think I'll look into that x x

 

[Crystalrainbow]

Reiki training is out there Dreamer Reiki 1 is all you need to use for yourself, its a beautiful way to self help, i learned many years ago when suffering with terrible aneixty and panics and has seen me thru some pretty bad patches. Google it see if there's a Reiki master near by

I have a 20 minute track I listen to that calms me and helps sometimes but it depends how much I've been unsettled by the dream to whether it helps or not.. I think it might be down to worrying over what could be wrong with the dizziness etc.. Hopefully will find out in Tuesday and then can stop worrying and see if that helps!! Xx

I'll have a look into it Hun, thank you. I can meditate to some extent as my mum is a spiritual medium and I've been to some classes she does and gone through meditation techniques with her and my step mum so that can help, but at 3/4/5am and a little freaked out it's a bit hard to get into the right frame of mind!!

This week has been a good week in terms of trying new things.. I have tried pasta, cous cous, breakfast biscuits, sandwich thins and just tried a kiwi fruit. Everything has gone down well. Well, I need to wait and see about the kiwi because I have literally just finish it before typing this out! Very happy with the amount I've tried this week - all since Wednesday too! Xx
