New story tommorrow - content warning · 6:15am Oct 12th, 2016
Tomorrow morning I'll be publishing a new story, this post is a content warning for those who may be sensitive. The tale in question was written when on the first of October, maybe last day of September, something happened. It was almost too much for me to take, to put it bluntly I almost done offed myself. My state of mind took a few days to recover, in fact it still is and is part of why my stories haven't been updated and rate of publication slowed.
This story began that night, I wrote it in a way due to still considering the unthinkable. Somehow it turned into a future series of stories, but for those with more sensitive and possible trigger susceptible minds this post is for you.
What this story will touch on:
Implied abuse emotional and verbal
Parental abandonment
Depression and low self esteem
Suicide by poison....There may be a reason it is so specific.
Now for the happy non the author almost made themselves non existent news. The rest of the updates will continue as scheduled, and other life things are moving ahead as planned. So outside of recovering from almost offing myself, I'm doing fine and stories should be published on schedule from now on.

I'm fine, well, I'm better now. A close friend was there and stopped me, and has been a vital part of my getting away from that state of mind for the past week or two. It's still going to be awhile before I can be considered "safe", but for now I'm "stabilized". As long as nothing really bad happens in the next few months, based on past experience I should be alright. I only seem so calm about it due to how long I've dealt with this, it's not the first time by any means. Quite a few stories of mine begin with an end, and that isn't because of writing style it directly relates to my state of mind when the tale began.
But for now I'm recovering, part of that is of course writing and creating art. Spinning tales of terror is for some reason cathartic for me. I'm presuming for the same reasons it's cathartic for Steven King.
The story being written at that time, when I was about to do the unthinkable, it gives an insight into a small part of why I almost did it. You could say it showcases one of my biggest personal fears. Right now as I type this, I'm stable and doing better, I do have people I can talk to if I start falling again, which I hope is a long ways off.
Thank you for your concern,
Glen Gorewood
Wow. I hope you're feeling better. Try to channel those dark emotions into your writing more often. And your art
You have talent.
