RE: Cafe Linville - Back2Good - 05-01-2016

Curses.  I have finally run through the prepared meals my wife left for me, and shall now have to travel to the grocery store in this ugly storm.  Ah well, at least I can pick up a decent bottle of red wine while I'm there, and some $1 for 8 hamburger buns for the chickens, they love those things.  And that, of course, means I'll have to pick up some treats for the dogs and the cats (have to be fair) - Penelope's treat will be to ride along with me in the her blanket-lined laundry basket in the passenger seat, she loves going for rides.

Back soon, with a pile of grocery bags.

Hang in there Harley, it only rains forever in the rainforests.  Blush Made that up, but it sounds true!

B2G, I am the same with my animals. If I eat, they actually eat first for 2 reasons. I don't want to be bothered by them while I am eating, and two, I love em so much, they are like my babies. Couldn't possibly leave them out. 

I hope everyone here has a great start to their work week! And, don't make those faces I know you are making when you read that last sentence. I see everything.

Good Morning Everybody. I hope you all had a good weekend. I hope too that you all didn't suffer too much with your pain & anxiety.

Well, it's raining here again today with temps only in the 40s so it's raw out. I am fighting off the depression that I get frequently in the dreary weather. So, since I don't drive, I am riding into town with my sister. It will break up my day some.

I hope everyone of you lovely people can have a good Monday.

Good afternoon everyone.

Seems like a lot of you have been going through a lot of $hit lately!
Apart from my boss being an arse I've been getting on quite well so I really hope you all get through your current personal issues ASAP!

I have, since discussing it in other areas (on this site) and with friends, now started taking a low dose (1-2mg) melatonin...every...night...and *touch wood* it seems to be *touch wood again* working wonders!
I decided to make it a nightly thing once I read about all the other benefits (besides sleep) it can have on the body:
"Melatonin is a potent antioxidant and anti-aging therapy that has been shown to help prevent or treat multiple medical conditions"
Google has all the info....

So, the 2 paragraphs above are 'linked' in that;
I've been reading about B2G's insomnia, Roses 'dreary weather depression', Ice's 24 hour bug, Harley's arthritis, etc. and there are multiple claims/ a bunch of information claiming that melatonin can help all these things! (Insomnia, S.A.D, immune system, pain, anxiety, digestion, the list goes on)
so...given how cheap it is, it maybe worth a try? - if you do decide to, give it a few weeks, seems it takes a few weeks to start fully working.

I just did a quick search now and check this...:
"Some reports have shown that melatonin modulates GABAA receptor function (Golombek et al. 1996). Thus, melatonin increases GABA and muscimol affinity for the GABAA receptor in the rat cerebral cortex in vitro (Coloma and Niles 1988). This action is similar to the well-known effect of diazepam, because both compounds cause a 60–70% GABA binding increase (Coloma and Niles 1988)"

Sorry, this seems a bit off topic now but, I don't know, I just seem to have found what I've always been looking for...?
Every time I google it I read something else that surprises me.

I was reading through some of my older posts earlier (trying to remember if I'd discussed melatonins other benefits before) and noticed some funny characters throughout people's (especially my) posts. ÃÅ for example. It's no biggie like, I think it may have happened when that server swap took place.

Ok I'm going to make a cup of tea Smile

Have a nice Monday everyone

Man here lately, I've been gettin up and all, but after I get all my "stuff" together... I forget where I put it... I just know it's got everything to do with "Anonomous"... Gotta start leavin that alone till I get home in the evening!

Anyway... Sooo good to see all the folks passin by here... To me it shows friends... I mean... There are so many more facets of everybody here other than needing a bit of meds to make it... That's only a small part... I look at y'all as an extended family... When one of us is down, everybody here steps up to say they are with you... Hey ... It means more than just text on a page... There's a person behind that screen... Well y'all get what I'm tryin to say... That's what makes us different... We aren't like the other forums... Let's keep that feelin... It's really a treasure to so many...

Remember to love one another today and smile... Start a trend...
