Writing this for Therapy Reasons

Post Reply New Topic

And always feel stuck. Cause I'm just like that. I have ideas in my head. I have these musical tones in my head. My head doesn't shut up. I dream about worlds. I write about worlds. In RP my characters are extensions of things I know. My head doesn't stop. I don't know how I can survive in a world where I am forced to be a store clerk or a psychology. And stories just come into my head the way they do. I have to stop every activity just to write. I think I'd die if I didn't write.

I don't want to be a psychologist as much as the human fascinates me, I don't want to be an anthropologist or a journalist or a scientist or a computer engineer or anything.

I just want to be a writer. I just want to be a Leonardo Da Vinci, I want to write, create. Just create. I need to write. I need to write. I need to.

Don't fight your gift; embrace it!
Work to continually become the best writer you can and start producing work for people to read. If you can't sell it initially give it away to get your audience and get feedback to make it even better. I know that THIS audience would likely give you very honest feedback. Worst case you can self publish and put it on Amazon yourself.
That said pick ONE thing to write about and work to make it superlative.

While you're doing that you'll have to do other things to survive but it'll just be a means to an end. Good luck!

Thank you Austin.

I just found myself having a break down.

I don't know how I'll survive when my head just doesn't shut up. I can't stop creating. Was in class and ideas came into my head.

I have been studying people for a long time in order to try to 'fit in'.
One thing I have noticed is that very few people really know what they want to do;
very few have a passion for what they do do;
very few people are driven to do something they could make a career out of.

It is a gift to know what you really want to do; go with it.
Change your major to literature or something similar and just embrace who you are
When the classes you're taking are applicable to what you want to do it is easier to pay attention.

Good luck!

Oh...yeah...lol.
