Hi.

I’ve always been a writer since I was really small, it’s to the point I my grandma has (preserved) notes of my teachers either complaint about how I wrote so off topic or encouraging me to continue writing!

It started with short stories, then I got into roleplaying somewhere around the 3rd grade (me and my classmates would just write back and forth 😭if you ask me that is indeed roleplaying), and then I got into the online circle and it was just history from there.

Around 2022, I just got this massive demotivation and it honestly broke me. I never thought that I could feel tried? Writing. I could get annoyed with myself that I wasn’t able to put words into paper. I couldn’t even keep up with my rp partners and had to drop a lot of scenes and eventually people (that I later realize weren’t true friends) dropped me because of the scenes :/. For 2 years? I was just in this constant void, I’d sit in front of my screen and notebook with a pencil in my hand and after 20~ minutes I’d give up and retreat to doom scrolling. It was horrible.

In 2025 I managed to get some spark back and in 2026 I went full on berserk. I’ve written around 40k~ words since January and it’s honestly been so refreshing! I’m rusty and I see myself making a lot of beginner mistakes but ya know 😭🙏🏾 what do you expect after 3 years of barely writing. But now? I feel that numbing feeling again and I don’t want it to consume me, I just cannot go back to that buzz.

I understand that writers block is a VERY real thing and sometimes ya can’t avoid it but I just don’t want to be in that space again. Does anyone have any exercises they do? Things they watch that usually get the gears turning again?

This is absolutely hilarious.

I had been scrolling through my favorite tags just marking things for later and I just had the random thought to really see just how many I’ve marked.

😭🙏🏾 250.

I managed to get through a few of the smaller ones but oh my good LOL all those evenings I couldn’t find anything and it was just in my mark for later!! I implore you to check up on this at least once a week

Hi. Strange title but I suddenly had the realization that I could just go to Reddit and ease all my nerves because I enjoy first hand accounts 😔

I become 21 in 3 hours and I’ve decided that I will be losing my virginity. I have a delicate relationship with it, I don’t want to get too into it and make everyone reading depressed but it’s something that’s been held over my head by family and friends (as I’ve gotten older). It’s gotten to the point I think I’ve become obsessed with it? Not in a purity culture kind of way just I find myself thinking about it more than the average person.

I’m curvy / Chubby/ Fat however you want to describe it and I’ve been sexualized for it but never pursued romantically or sexually. It hurts a little bit that I’m just a someone to touch on but never someone that could be explored and engaged with. But the very idea of sex scares me, it’s such an intimate thing and it could always go horrifically wrong for a LIST of reasons. It also scares me that I will only be explored solely for the fact I am overweight and nothing more.

How do I… ease this? How do I ease this anxiety of mine so I don’t end up making a fool of myself and traumatized me and my partner. 😭I hope I am making sense.

Do people care about hair? A smell? (Not bad just.. my gynecologist told me I just had a very strong natural smell. It haunts my days guys) If you’re inexperienced? How do I strategically recover from chickening out?
