Hey there! As a professional writer who goes through bouts of severe depression that heavily impacts my ability to write, these are my tips and tricks to sliding out!
1. Take a break. It's okay to do that. Seriously. You do not HAVE to write that post right now. You don't have to beat that level. You can take a break!
2. Read! Reading is what we use, to get better. Reading allows us to get new ideas, to get a better feel for how to convey characters, descriptions etc.
3. Play a super basic, super easy game that challenges you next to none. Let yourself just glide through it. Don't over think it, just relax. Even if its just solitaire!
4. Make a playlist. Something relaxing or upbeat. Something that you turn on when you're ready to sit down and write! Let it encourage you.
5. Remember that the only way you will get better, is to practice. Whether it's writing something for yourself, or it's just idly approaching in roleplays like the MV! Take it slow and easy!
You are good enough, and you will get better. I read a post from my old, old account today. And I cringed. Like, oh my gosh it was SO BAD. If only 17 year old me knew what I was capable of! You can do it.
My inbox is open if you need it! :)
I really do love feedback, so please leave some for me.
If you wish to get ahold of me, just note me. I don't bite!
I specialize in Romance, Fantasy (More magic than anything), Mystery
Keep an eye on my upcoming psych thriller!
