u have 2 do with so much and fight 4 so much, do u ever just feel exhausted ?

Life is what you make it.....there are always challenges and things worth fighting for and somethings you have to let go of and move on.

true and i'm often putting my self in situations i can't seem 2 get myself out of, sometimes i get real tired and into like this morbid mode, it scars my mom.

All the time. The weird part though is that it's often more exhausting to do nothing than to have a lot to do. If you're unemployed for example, then you have to fight a million destructive and stressful thoughts whereas if you're busy with a specific task you can focus on that and block out some of your other problems. At least that's the way it works for me a lot of the time.

hey what the hell is that suppose to mean, i just so happen to be a writter okay, i'm taking time out to write a book but in the mean time i still have bullshit to deal with and u know what it's fucking with my writing so i get stressed when i can't fuccking write and it's damn impossible to try work while ur working on a book.

Mizzunderstood said:

I have no idea why you were provoked by what I said. I was just talking about my own personal experience with life, exhaustion and stress.

Anyway, good luck with your efforts to become a "writter".

Overwhelmed yes! I think it's probably ya gotta plan more.

Mizzunderstood said:

Just keep writing - write about what's frustrating you and you'll soon get back on track. You may even find that what you write about your frustrations is usable too. Have you seen Adaptation with Nicholas Cage ? That film illustrates it well.

Writing is very hard to do, you have to be so self-motivated. I don't know how people do it, so I sympathise with you, Mizz. I wake up every morning and think "Oh god, I have to do it all over again." I feel defeated before I even get up.

I'm a stay at home mum, and for 4 days last week I went in to work. It was so easy!!! You can concentrate in peace and quiet and get so much done. I came home each day and had heaps of energy left. If only I could do it every day, but that would mean letting someone else take the kids, and I hate the thought of someone else bringing them up. DIY childcare is physically and emotionally draining. Imagine if at work you went through the whole spectrum of anger, joy, guilt, (over and over), did heaps of heavy lifting and put up with unrelenting noise to rival an airport runway, still had to look happy and keep up with the hundreds of demands, crying, whingeing, had to think of interesting things for them to do and clean up their mess all the time.

I don't know how I can even do this. Imagine if I had to write as well. OMG.

Take it easy there Mizzy, Vibrator was just sharing a life experience which I happen to agree with. It's great that you wanna become a writer, but then you really need to perfect your grammar and spelling so it's flawless - which it is obviously not at the moment.

CokeJohnson said:

hey i have good grammer and spelling it's just that I be lazy to correct it. Another thing is i have deluxsia to which makes it more challenge to write, but i'm going to work hard on it, i really want to accomplish this and get it out the way.

That's great Mizzy
I hope you overcome all that's in your way and make it as a writer..

Mizzunderstood said:

matter of fact she was death and blind, still wrote a book so i know my little problem won't get in the way

Mizzunderstood said:

i think it's safe to assume that she did all her writing while still alive.

IAmTheTouch said:

okay and i'm gonna write while i'm still alive too, it'll be interesting to see how my biography will be like, the things i had to overcome just to get one book publish.
