Juggling in bad weather

A couple of nights ago I had a sleepless night 🌙.  The first totally sleepless night I’ve had in a very long time.  It was extremely windy and loud and even with a tiny dose of valium I tossed and turned all night and early morning. By morning time I was physically and emotionally exhausted and I felt I could barely function. I was conscious of how affected my mind was and knew I had to take care of myself mentally so I didn’t risk becoming unwell. So Thursday I spent the day in my pyjamas on the couch with Lily.  My family and some good friends helped me get through the day. I spent the day being mentally kind to myself. The next night the wind had stopped and I went to bed early with an extra dose of valium and I had a wonderful night’s 😴 sleep. Crisis averted.  I woke up feeling strong and refreshed and ready to face the 🌎 world.  I am writing ✍️ this to let people know they are not alone if bad windy weather makes you agitated and plays on your mind.  It can happen to the best of us and you are not the only one who needs to give themselves a little TLC to function mentally well. No wonder we all talk about the weather,  as different types of weather can affect how we mentally cope with day-to-day life.
