Repeatedly remembering that I work tomorrow.

[Lectorog]

Spoiler: Complaints (click to show/hide)

I feel like I'm worthless and decaying. I'm just sitting around and consuming. Every day I eat the same things, play the same games, and listen to the same music. In class I'm doing the minimum that will keep my A grade, which ends up being about 3/4 or less of the assigned work, most of it done a few hours before it's due. My exercise has dropped to the point that I think I'm just maintaining my meager muscle mass, not gaining any at all. I spend so much time sitting that my knees hurt by the end of the day (because I mostly sit with my legs crossed or pulled up). Nothing really interests me; I feel as though I don't have enough time to do the productive things I like (crafting, learning, reading), so I don't do them. I'm having trouble focusing, and I have no clue why. I get a good amount of sleep (avg. 9 hours) but I don't feel rested. I don't have anyone to talk to, even though I have two friends I could easily contact. So here I am, the place I spend a couple of hours at every day, complaining to anyone who wants to hear it. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow; maybe not. It's different every day - I might feel neutral, might be happy at some things, might have a growing sense of loneliness, might feel angry, might feel depressed, and so forth - many possible combinations. The phrase "I'm tired of" keeps coming into my mind, but I can't finish it.

Spoilered so people don't have to bother with my block of minor sads.

[kaijyuu]

A bunch of minor sads can add up to a major sad.


Do you have anything to look forward to, or work toward? And is it something you actually care about? If not, find one.

[Rose]

I find myself unable to write any kind of plot in the fear that it will be the next my immortal.

[Josephus]

Don't worry, it takes intent to be as bad as My Immortal.

[kaijyuu]

Making something godawful > making nothing at all.


Even if you do write the most horrible piece of fiction to ever blight the Earth, at least you got some practice and will almost certainly do better next time.

Damn, stop being me.  And I'm no psychologist, but have you gotten checked out for depression?

[Rose]

Maybe, but it's an RP group, and the price of shitty writing is that the other people I rp with won't find it enjoyable and... god, this sounds dumb when I say it out loud.

[kaijyuu]

I dunno how strict you are with your RP groups, but one I ran ages ago went down the tube because I was way too serious about my storyline (specifically, sticking to it. I was a total railroader). Make it loose and flexible, and you can do no wrong; your players will guide it to fun places. It can be as cliche as hell, and they'll have fun.

As long as it's fun, man. As long as it's fun.

The tale of Leopabaru Conchaki, half-drow half-ogre ninja wizard, comes to mind.

[Pnx]

Oh insomnia, how I hate thee.

[penguinofhonor]

Japa: My Immortal is hilarious! Imagine how many people could have fun if your work was that bad.

Making something that's absolutely mediocre is probably the worst thing.

[kaenneth]

I only write stuff that I intend to be bad, like fanfic parodys, that way, no matter how aweful it is I can legitimatly go "I know, lol."

I'm going to fit right in as an English major. Oh, FTFY, too.
