Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

Hey WAM, well done.

Bullying !!!!!! Principal fobbing it off my ****...... Don't let it rest.
Keep at the school, and whoever........

Take all the sleep you can get zzzzz.....zzzz

Momo, I just realised I maybe sounded a bit abrupt in my last post.

Just wanted to say that I tried to cope with 3 - 4 hours sleep, and full time work, and eventually it all catches up. Take care and seek help with the sleeping.

2 1/2 hours sleep, not good enough. We can't do anything properly without enough sleep.

Hi Nadia, hope you got caught up on some sleep. Anxiety attack..... I empathise so completely, I have always been of an anxious personality (tho no-one really would have known) but recently it has become a problem.

Well done Zach, glad all is going along on the right track.

I can't stand chick flick books.

And I also like Tom Clancy stuff.....

Another book I just absolutely loved was 'Bridges Over Madison County' by Robert James Waller. Not a very long book. And as the main characters are middle aged, perhaps you need to be of a certain age, to appreciate the emotions. Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep were the leads in the movie. The movie...

A great book. 'Not Without My daughter' by Betty Mahmoody.

I read this about 10 years ago and have always remembered it. This is a true story. There is also a movie with Sally Field. The movie was fine but I felt didn't get into the mind of the character like the book.

Hi and welcome, I find if I can get to it quickly enough, say when watching a movie at home, that if I lie on the couch on my tummy, knees bent and feet in the air, it can buy a little time, till the movie is over and I go and do something mobile. When travelling in a car as a back seat passenger I ...

Yes, we all have to cut the obvious stress as much as we can.

I am in the process of doing this myself, just the act of being pro active I think is beneficial.

Best wishes
