If I disappear, say a prayer for me. things are rough & I can't have stronger anti-depressants until I get my heart checked.
maybe writing will help, but I am bogged down in a long story filled with characters I am bored with already.

*no, not suicidal or terminal, just unlikely to post if my brain goes too dark.

I'd love it if someone finds a Story Idea here, just so I don't need to forum Nazi mysself about this forum being for Story Ideas...
maybe something to do with sex, depression, trashed houses, stolen cars...

Concerned about one of their favourite authors/forum posters, an unlikely hero embarks on a road trip to Thunder Bay Ontario to give them a real life hug only to discover that Sir hugs ...
Is a silver fox
Is a tentacle monster
Is Bryan Adams (sorry he was the first famous Canadian who popped into my head)
Has invented time travel and actually an older version of themselves.
 
And I have the exact opposite problem. Taking my meds turns off the creativity, where if I skip a day every other day, I can write, a lot but tend to get emotional about thing that never made me emotional before. So, it an up and down thing with me. I just have to remember to turn the bottle upside down so I don't take one the next day and then remember to turn it right side up again.

Good luck my friend, hope everything turns out all right for you.
 
It's a great story idea! A veteran author, who suffers from depression or whatever and finds that he can't write. But he manages to summon up a djinn/poltergeist/wendigo/demon/selkie who can be a "ghost writer" (maybe literally) for him.

Hey, that's it! A ghost writer who is literally a ghost! It's Lit gold!!

Take care my friend. Prayers are in the launch tube, ready to be deployed if needed. If I don't see you here for five days in a row, I will pull the trigger.

It is possible the new meds are to blame for my recent slow progress, but I tend to think it is more life that is dragging me down, and I AM bored by these characters already. One sex scene, about 1200 to 200 words to go.

Thank you. Progress is already being made with some of the life issues. With luck I won't need a hiatus after all.

More that I wanted someone to PM me if I get too dark here before I bum everybody out. Also, don't panic - the cancer is not back (*knock on wood*)

As I posted above to Zeb, thank you. Progress is already being made with some of the life issues. With luck I won't need a hiatus after all.

Also, don't panic - the camcer is not back (*knock on wood*). I figured I could count on at least the three of you. But also did not want the rest of the regulars thinking I was AWOL like 4 years ago.

I'm so glad that you're feeling better! One day at a time... one hour at a time if necessary.
