I understand this.

For a couple of years, my fics got darker and darker as I used them to work out my own RL issues. Not to say the fics were necessarily bad--I think fics can benefit from having that touch of realism. It's just not what I wanted from my fics. Like the OP, I wanted escapism.

In the end, I took a break from writing entirely, because every single fic I wrote started to go down a similar path and it depressed me. When I started up again, my fics were much lighter and I've more variety in the subject matter. I still add things in them from my real life, because I think that makes for good fics. I changed fandom as well--I think that can help.

So OP, I know how worrying these things can be, even though it feels like fic writing should be fun and trivial and nothing to get in a twist about, psychologically. It's all got to come from somewhere, though. Putting it all on display can feel rather vulnerable.
