Hi everyone. I’d like to ask for your help in making sense of something—and to see if any of you have experienced this too. Ever since I was very young, I’ve felt an urge to write. And people around me ​encouraged me to do so after reading my Stuff. So far, so good. The trouble is, these urges hit me like a fever; after writing a page or two, when I want to continue the next morning, the "tank is empty." I end up writing nothing at all for months, or if I do keep going, I’m overcome by intense self-doubt, sadness, and frustration. I also rarely have a comprehensive idea for a story or something specific I’m dying to tell. Figuratively speaking, I get a scrap of text dictated to me "from above," and that’s it. Of course, I’ve wondered if perhaps I simply don’t have what it takes. After all, not everyone can write—just as not everyone can play ice hockey. I should add that I’ve also been struggling with anxiety and depressive episodes for years. Anyway, that’s all for now. Thanks in advance for your replies, and all the best to you.
