Moments of transition

Jul 11, 2023 17:10


I've been feeling very frustrated with my life in recent months.

It's been a rough time.  A brutal year, to be honest.  Leaving G-Mart at the end of April was necessary.  And frankly long overdue.  But I've continued to have trouble remembering simply how to relax.

hey--i'm not usually over here because DW stopped cross-posting, but LJ sent me a note that you had posted after such a long time and i'm glad it did--i'm glad to have seen this. first of all, didn't know that you and ryvre had left g-mart--if there was a FB post, i missed it. (i think i miss a lot on FB.)

i think of you as someone who wanted to write, so maybe that's a piece of it? right now i'm so busy closing out the fiscal year that i'm swamped but if you feel like chatting with someone, i'll be clear of this in a couple of weeks. take good care of you!

Thank you! Yes, it's kind of funny posting in the mostly-abandoned wasteland that is LiveJournal these days, and wondering who if anyone will still see it. ;)

Yeah, we didn't post anything on Fbook when we left due to the acrimonious circumstances that finally forced our departure. We may talk about that (with varying degrees of transparency) in a public setting at some point? For the moment, we've just been focusing on what we're doing next.

And yes, "wanting to write" is both accurate and, historically, the problem. Which, again, I only now have the context to realize has always been due (in significant part) to the ADHD-related deficiency of dopamine! I'm trying to get on top of that re: diagnoses & treatment - a lengthy topic in its own right - but in the meantime, I'm seeing what I can do to start flexing the writing muscles again. For the first time in quite a long while.

BTW - I was pleasantly surprised to see posts of yours back in May about having attended WisCon for the first time in years, and enjoying it! (I recall ( ... )
