Regaining Focus & Self Esteem [self therapy]

Oct 06, 2008 09:48

This has been a fairly muddled and hap-hazard year for me. It's been extremely hard for me to maintain focus on anything for long. I've been recurrently "low" in my emotional state, and artistically constipated (last web comic page was on the 16th August!).

The Save Our Souls panel at TINA yesterday discussed these problems.

Are there any community groups connected to your interests in the Newcastle area? Or classes/workshops you could join?

There used to be, but either they fragmented, or only have meetings at night.
Actually, I need to do a PROPER investigation of this, rather than dismiss it out of hand.

I'm not sure what you can do, apart from maybe join a hobby group or something like that. Perhaps an art one.
I have also disconnected myself from heaps of people, as I've move to the Hunter and I don't have transport...
My mum is also the same, she is a little older than you and works ALL the time and feels she has no life :/

Trouble is, I DON'T work, and I still feel that way!

Yeah. I seem to have done the same. I moved out to Kurri and petrol is so expensive that I can't go anywhere. Even public transport is way to expensive and you spend all day travelling.

I miss the days when I was volunteering at ACON and going to the pub and the uni.

I really don't know what's out there. Sorry I can't help with that.
