Re: Evenings alone and the best ways to self-care

Hi @Melanie-cat   Yes have to agree, nights on your own are hard to deal with at times.  I like getting lost in a good movie or watching old tv sitcoms which put a smile on my face.  I also love reading and often I am reading more than one book at a time (one book upstairs next to the bed, the other downstairs which is handy when I am watching TV ( a rarity as hardly anything decent on) as the adverts seem to go on for AGES...so when they start is when I pIck up a book.  I also love listening to music.  I find putting on my favourite artists (and I have quite a few) helps.  Anything that helps me forget reality really even if it is for a short time.

And other times I put pen to paper and write my thoughts/feelings in poems.  

Hope you are coping this evening.

Re: Evenings alone and the best ways to self-care

Hello to you @Shaz51 

I am well thank you.  Taking a week off work and for the first time in a LONG time I am relaxed and not full of anxiety (mind you it will return next week when returning to work but trying not to think of that).  

How are you going?????
