It's 6:30 AM. Should I go for a drive?
This is the fifth night since my Dad died that I've awakened to pee and then couldn't get back to sleep. This time I was up at 5:15.

I can get a cup of coffee, and drive and either think about him or listen to my book. I can take Tomtom, drive places I've never been and not get lost.

I like it. I think I'll go.

2. This too is part of the grief
do whatever you can to make yourself feel better. If that means midnight drives, then absolutely yes

3. If it helps you, the I say drive
I get restless when I'm depressed or upset. Driving is my therapy. Sometimes I just get on the outerbelt and drive the loop if I'm afraid I'll get too far from home.

:hug: Bertha.

Hope this morning's travels helped you some.
