I'm a writer so i don't have much experince when it comes to using Obsidian for writing work i've tried in the past but it felt overwhelming. I am considering having 2 vaults 1 for life stuff and class notes even if end up doing creative writing as a subject and then a second one for more intense work like screenplays, novels, short stories and long-fics. Does anyone else have a similar set up or do you have all of your writing in one vault? it just feels so tedious to me but i can't find many videos on different set ups so i'd be so curious especially for people who write chunky stories.

Also how is the lag? i have a macbook m4 all i use it for is sims 3, and also youtube that's about it my main broswer is vivaldi so with that in the background i don't think i'll have any lag or run out of stroage soon i am just very curious about everyone's set ups and also plugins you suggest/? i am trying not to go to overboard as i am still very much a noob trying to figure it out. Also can you have two seperate themes in vaults? or do they all share the same one?. I'm more used to using scrivener, ms word and google docs and pages for refrence so i have no clue if it's a similar kind of set up here. thank you!.

I still have no idea how to process it.

My family are very academic and i feel like i never was only until this year i always felt really behind and i always had some kind of a tutor or guide i always thought i was never that smart enough for education and i always had so many people talk me down. I'im a weird person that loves compliments but also is very squeamish about them. Even when i do succeed in something i constantly think about the other stuff ahead maybe that makes me a good planner and i do plan a lot i think about everything when i am doing other tasks.

Right now i'm overthinking graduation i know it will be a quick day and hopefully fun lol but i keep watching every single life stream actually praying to God that i don't trip on the stage. I am also worried that in my Masters soon i won't achieve the same results maybe i'll get too cocky and fumble but i have learned ways i am hopefully going to stick to and improve my masters will only be a year but also at the same time thats scary. A lot of my family have been giving me big praise and i feel like i have no idea how to receive it so my brain has been offline for a few days.

I also have no idea what that means for me in the future if it will benefit me i already applied to one uni, and i have another there are very limited courses for what i want to study so i'm praying it all somehow works out and that the portfolio i submitted was good enough and i hope i can have this kind of dedication to my first real job although i have been struggling with being active about things lately and also just trying to want to get stuff done instead of forcing myself to.

Sometimes i wonder if i have ADHD lol.

I would share but it is a pretty personal one and i am THRILLED but i have no one to gush about this with. I have a huge insane collection of tn's that no one needs but it's great because i have every side a company i love (no promo i just adore them) is elrohir leather amazing quality, and the reason i love them is their sizes!.

Today i was frustrated with having 2 giant books to carry around my family are very anti -religious and so i was worried about my bible being found i realised today ic could try and see if my bible and my current journal which is a big a5 stationary island one would fit and they both do! i'm so hyped! this thing is so chunky and i also have a cute lil keychain i got from etsy of a notebook pink with my name on it and i am loving this set up so much only thing that would give it away is the. bible tabs but they are also colour coded with my fav colours - purple and pink and dark blue it's gone through a lot of damage so i am fine if the cover falls off from the strings.

I am even more excited as this means i can take it to uni with me soon and shove it in my big massive bag that i carry around with me and gte journaling and some reading done during lunch time - hopefully. I ams o glad that this system actually works and i can carry around does anyone else have a similar chunky one?. It feels like my baby honestly and i'm also so glad that i can just shove it under my pillows too and it's sturdy enough to not worry about it moving anywhere.

The verses sounded so familiar to me i kept thinking maybe it reminded me of an old demo but THEN my brain realised no actually it sounds a very slow down version of Halestorm's dirty work! especially the bridge i love and adore that album so much does anyone else hear it?.

i should have posted this a while ago i don't know why i didn't. So basically i have a condition a rare genetic disorder which means i have short term memory i struggle to recall things like date and information and i also struggle with things like logic. In terms of writing this does make the process a lot harder especially as my main genre is fantasy so it's very very hard for me to worldbuild.

I've tried several things like visual outlining but then sometimes depending on the day my mood i find it hard to form sentences and describe things i have been working on it and reading craft books trying to soak in information but that is also taking time i am trying to write more and more detailed i just wondered if anyone else (i bet there are people) who are in the same boat as me trying to write with some kind of memory issues. Have you found any work arounds? the only thing i have found is buying physical books resources like one for character names so i can skim through them instead of pushing my brain to think on the spot. I'm also trying to be a bit more simplistic in first drafts.

Hey everyone, i haven't used my Byok that much as i thought i would only for a rare essay and some other fanfiction projects i am starting my masters in September, and i have always used pen and paper since i have short term memory however that has it's own problems and i often loose my notes or get easily bored/distracted. So i've been testing my writing decks i've tried using my freewrite alpha and while i love it it's way too loud so i think i'm going to use that for more personal projects.

I was wondering looking at my BYOK which i could pair with my softer pink Logitech keyboard it made me realise that others must be using byok studio for more than books. I had originally intended to use it for screenplays also and maybe journaling but i also need a place for bible study, and uni notes, so how do you guys have your studio set up for perosnal study? i'm a little unsure of how i want to go about it? i'm very interested in hearing about your detailed set-ups and i would love to see some photos too! i'm so curious i wish i could find more refrence images of what people use their byok for i'm loving the size and how easy it is to carry i might need to put mine in my massive laptop case for travel i'm very worried about it getting broken.

I’ve known about this sub for a while. This year, I’ve had a pretty big identity crisis after experiencing a lot of regret over my past and my tendency to chase male validation, which is a big problem for me. Earlier this year, I got really into theology after visiting the Vatican and making a documentary about it. From there, I kind of spiralled out of control. I bought various Bibles, got some cool stationery and notebooks, told my friend about my new interest, and started thinking that maybe I was a Christian. Even though I am a bisexual, non-binary person, I decided to push that part of myself back a bit just to see where this religious path would take me.

I tried reading my Bible every day. While I enjoyed it, I found it really hard to understand and realized I just wasn't passionate about it. Ultimately, a lot of my personal beliefs just don't jive with Christianity. I know progressive Christianity is a thing, but looking into that felt like an even deeper rabbit hole Because I am disabled and spend a lot of time alone, the idea of a God felt comforting. However, I notice I began restricting things I used to enjoy as a way to "please or get closer to God." In my eyes, I had to keep changing my social media feed over and over to fit this new identity But sometimes—like tonight, and even right now—I have these thoughts of: “Hey, maybe this is actually harmful to me, even though I want it to be helpful. Maybe it's just not for me, and I can let it go.”

It feels nice to even allow myself to think that. But I still have this weird, secondary guilt. It’s not so much that it didn't work out for me, but more like I failed at being a part of a religion that I wasn't really even a part of to begin with. I realize out loud it doesn't sound logical, but that's how I’m experiencing it. Part of me just wants to go back to my old ways. I want to donate my Bibles, but I just can't help but shake this weirdness regarding how I was trying to force my brain to think.

Sorry for the ramble. I just came out of a bad mental spell and I was trying to suppress a lot. Does anyone else have any experience with this, or find it relatable? I'm just trying to get back to myself—or see if there was even a "myself" to begin with, if we want to get that deep lol. i just don't know what to do now or how to rewrite my brain i think i'm gonna start with a few books at least.

Hey all very new here i've been trying to discover my religion for a better part of this entire year i have tried almost every single one! no lie lol christian witchcraft Christopaganism and christian witchcraft is by far the most fitting for me as i do believe i am christian but not entirely in the traditional sense i still feel very confused very lost though a fish out of water. does anyone have any books, podcasts they would like to throw my way that they've found very helpful in finding their footing? i'm open to pretty much anything it's been kind of a journey so far the concept of christian witchcraft blending together really fascinates me but a lot of what i've found online so far is more christian leaning or stereotypical.
