Sad. · 7:21am Jun 22nd, 2015
I feel so conflicted right now. I want to be logical and be efficient because of it, but my emotions keep getting in the way. I feel like I'm fighting myself... It doesn't help that I'm already upset with myself because I haven't been writing a lot, and I've been stuck on it. Not to mention I haven't been sleeping properly and I've been overcome with stress because I can't bloody focus on anything.
Seriously. I have no clue why I get all this love from you guys.
I'm basically really angry because I can't even write a freaking comedy, which is where I usually excel. Then again, none of the things I managed to write are anywhere near humorous. At least, not on purpose. My sad fics get more laughs than my comedies.
I can't even bring myself to finish several of my stories and right now, I just don't feel motivated to do anything at all... I'm rather lethargic, and I just want to lay down and sleep until everything goes away. Or just lay on the floor and scream for hours on end.
Bo Burnham gives me life.
Trying to shut yourself from the world will only make your problems come back with more force and make entirely new problems. The best thing to do is confront your problems.
Well, let me ask you an honest question:
Have you actually tried the screaming thing?
If you get distracted, here's a tip; open word, turn off the internet.
I wrote about three times as much as I usually do with this, because the internet I had in a vacation was too slow to use.
If it's a writers block, allow yourself to write crap (maybe in a one-shot or something)
Everyone else is giving helpful advice and all I can think of is "sounds like you just need a good nap."
Whenever I get sad, no matter what it is, I watch BUTTONBELLE montages. Depending on how sad I am, it's 2-15. That's my solution to everything. And if not that, it's nothing much, and I wait it out. But, when all else fails, which has only ever happened once before, I... Didn't do much. I looked outwards, and changed my view of things till it worked again. I mean, yeah. That's probably what will work for you, too.
