How about a new GP forum, for Nightbirds?

On the carers group I was very touched by a post that starts

"1.30 am and my mind is racing and I am overwhelmed."

It made me wonder how many other sleepless, worried GN's need a listening ear, or some company, when they feel most alone in the wee small hours.

If there was a forum called Nightbirds they might find each other , for some company.

What do you think?

butterjam - I’m an owl too…..a Nightbird.
Started off during my separation/divorce years ago and now it’s become a habit.
I am a worrier anyway….nothing in particular.
So, I read papers online, play games online and gradually drift off …
I’m sure there’ll be many GNs joining in soon

I had a very difficult time and divorced over 30 yrs ago. I became a night owl because I was always on edge and I couldn't sleep.
I have had a completely different life and marriage since those dark days. However my nights of not sleeping great remains I call it a habit too.
I will dip in and out of the new forum read listen and give support when I can.
