Alright, seriously, WTF? · 12:38am Jun 26th, 2017
Does anyone else get anxiety attacks when they're writing, or am I simply going about it all wrong?
It's not even just HiE that's causing it, it's my writing in general. Although if I had to narrow it down, it seems to happen most frequently when I'm trying to write for Shady, and I have no idea why that is. Why am I bordering on panic when I'm writing a fun character?

I get those sometimes whenever I'm plagued with Writer's Block while looking at an incomplete file.
Of course, this is more prevalent when I do English papers.

It could be that your subconsciously afraid of what people will think of your work or that they won't like it. Or it could be you thinking it's not good enough to the point of near having panic attacks/anxiety. Just my guess, could be way off but it's something at least, unlike the other comments at the time of posting this.
I believe that having some anxiety when writing is a sign you care about what you are doing, and wanting to do it well. At least that's what I've experienced when writing essays that were due the same day they were assigned.
Err, I'm no writer, but do have anything that helps you relax and laugh a bit?
I'm sorry to hear you're having problems. If it's causing you too much harm, I'd suggest seeking a professional.
Otherwise, I'd focus on your environment or journaling to see if you can figure out what might be causing it. Good luck.
