Re: Depression/Meds - In need of a hug :(

You know, I was in your boat until, like, January. Then I moved to Thailand, started writing for a living, and quit taking my meds (ADD meds, not depression) because they're illegal here.

I'm much happier now.

Just decide to take a step, any step toward what you're dreaming of. Sit down and write a hundred words, then write a hundred more. When it's done, say fuck it and self publish. Even short stories will sell. Your effort is worth money to someone. Fuck the next great American novel, they were all dull anyway. Don't wait on people to tell you that you're good enough, just go out there and do it.

The pursuit of perfect is the worst thing any of us do to ourselves.

/motivation speech.

I hope things look up for you. Just try to believe, you know? Work is a process of perpetual improvement. In the act of doing work, you improve yourself.

If I may ask, how did you manage to move to Thailand and write for a living? Many times, I've wondered if what I need is to quit cold turkey with all my environment and start anew...

I'm super glad you're happier now and that it's working for you. You have all my respect :3b

I'm a slow writer, and that doesn't help a lot. But what you're giving is good advice. I may not be able to do more than (say) 500 words in one sitting, but at least it will be 500 words that weren't there before. As for waiting for approval... I'm afraid I don't have much of a self-esteem. My process goes like this: When I'm daydreaming about characters and plots; or when I'm actually typing down what's in my head, I thoroughly enjoy it. But as soon as I hit a block, or finish something... I immediately hate what I did, and think it's mediocre. That makes finding motivation very hard.

I will try to believe. I'm astounded, and happy because a lot of people (including you) have been really kind to me, with this thread. I feel less lonely now.

I'll be doing my best, ok? Thank you so much.
