An...I'll repeat what Lilly said - keep writing! And know that this is only a phase and you will feel better again (as you said yourself. I have been reading your recent posts, and even when you describe the darkness you always seem to have the awareness that it is only temporary). So hard to see when we are in it. I hit rock bottom a while ago, and then one day something just switched. I hope you'll be back here soon with your honest writing. Thank you so much for your comment!

It's definitely not for everyone, and it sometimes makes people want to force my hand which, if you know me, ain't gonna happen. I can be a stubborn motherfucker, which is why I refuse to fucking quit. <br /><br />I will keep writing.

I think we need to accept that what is right for one person might not be right for the other (sounds lame, but there seem to be some society standards most people have internalized without even questioning; but stability is an illusion, calm does not work for anyone (and relaxation does not relax everyone nor might "accepting" or letting go be the right way for all of us, and damn any self-help quotes!) and some need to change, to move, to run, constantly, just to feel alive. And although it is a cliché, some are fighters, poets, dreamers and they need to live according to different rules and principles, and I think as long as we try not hurt people or let them down, this is a good thing!<br /><br />Keep writing Ryan, and yes, I, too, am certain that your will make it!<br />Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03410150853160353877noreply@blogger.com
