If you really enjoy writing a lot, you should write more stories and whatever else you like to write. If it's a way you can get your feelings out without having to directly tell your feelings to someone, then do it. Don't be afraid to express your feelings with what you like to do most. |
This is well said... For me personally though, at least, it would be great to have someone to be able to pour my heart out to. But then I've been very lonely throughout my life. |

Sorry for the crappy one-line thingy, but it could just be generic winter depression. Seems like we all have it. |

I, unfortunately, have not been involved in any relationships as of yet. Hey, I go to a school with 75 kids. What do you expect?
Parent issues? None aside from my step-dad all of the time...but he's been that way since we met, so...
I just can't think of why I feel so miserable... |

It's misery. Normalicy. Being trapped in a rut, and being so bored your emotions are going a bit heywire, trying to find an outcome, ending in depression.
It's just another day...repetitiveness leads to monotony which leads to depression. This I know...
Your great gift comes in your writing, but it's the ideas that always flourish, clawing for a way out, that cause limitations, stopping the progress, causing repetitiveness, monotony, depression. Learn to live with both as they work to create beauty...and the gate will open... |

If you want to write, and if you want to tell someone about that all, mix the two up and make a story based on it. It helps.
And there is more advice I can give, but it might not be accepted that well. It goes by...
Well, think, why do you need friends who REALLY care? Why do you need to be really cared about by your family, other than about issues related to surivival (e.g. Buying food)? You're bound to at first think it's there for no reason, but in fact it's just not there. Probably, it gets much better if you spend a few days stamping it in your mind, "I don't care if you don't care about me". It's probably going to help a good part of that, except for the being bored out of RPing, Digi and stuff. For that part, it's only a matter of time; there was a time I used to do nothing else but to write, and now I barely bother continue my fic. |

Uhggg.... I know how you feel.

It seems like...an addiction that's turned to a chore. I feel like I NEED to go on Digibutter...well, actually, just the computer as a whole...even if I don't want to. It's just so...boring. I just feel like I'm losing interest. Not just with the internet, but with EVERYTHING. IRL, I've really slowed down. I'm anti-social, I feel depressed, I'm overly-irritable and sensitive, and I just feel stressed and miserable, and I don't know why. |
First, maybe you should take a break. I know it's hard at first, but if you last the first couple days, you can go for months (I honestly never meant to return to digibutter until I clicked some weird icon on my start bar. Up popped digibutter and sucked me into it's depths DX )
Anyway you should talk to someone you trust alot. Maybe your sister that moved? You could call her right? Tell her what you going through. Maybe some really good friends. If all else fails, talk to your counseler. I know when someone says that you almost always think they think your crazy, but some counselers are really nice. They're trained for this stuff and are really nice (although I reccomend geting a female one, then again the one I had was a guy who scared me a bit XD)
| Mona wrote: | You know, another reason I'm boring myself is because as of now, I'm only really interested in wiritng. That's why I always write giant walls of text. Writing is my true, sincere, and most treasured passion. In class, on the computer, and even at night, all I do is daydream about what to write next...but the problem is, I usually end up making character summaries, plot summaries, and chapter summaries. That makes me feel more...confined on what I have to write, then I end up losing interest in my writing. Unfortunately, "Unique?" has fallen into this...so I'll be working on another story, with a slightly different plot, and different characters. I'll try not to get bored of this one...
|
Well wright for crying out loud! you're not confined to plot summaries and the such (although I must say you are amazing at those)! You're only confined to what you want yourself to be. Just say "I gonna write a chapter book" or whatever you want to write. Put your mind to it, and you can do it! I know you could write an epic fantasy series, or any other genre really, so just say "I can" and do it!
| Mona wrote: | | Anyways, I don't know. I love going to RPOT, and RPing my heart out, but lately I'm bored of it. I can't seem to find Alts that I'll stick with. I'm dying to use an OC, but unfortunately, I lack the ability to draw with a mouse, and I don't have a tablet. Not that it would help...I can only seem to draw decently with a pencil and paper. Problem with that? I don't have a scanner or camera |
You have done an awesome job at original charactars (Ki was one right?) . Even If you use a picture of another charactar, you can still make a OC. You could make one without the pic (like you did with Mitsu or something. I forgot the name D Your artisitic ability does NOT confine you to using certain charactars unless YOU let it. Your good at writing right? A description is good enough :3 If all else fails, ask Medikoopa or another artist to draw it for you.. They'll help.
| Mona wrote: | You tend not to have many "callable" friends when you feel like you're in mental lockdown. I really just want to scream and shout to my limits, and then cry my eyes out, but I just can't do that. Because then people would get all concerned, and that would honestly just make things worse.

Look, if you need to cry, cry. You'll feel better, I swear. I know it sucks when people see, but they should drespect you for having the courage to cry. You can't keep all your feeling locked in, it just doesn't work. You probably feel as if you need to pour your feeling out on someone right? Well, the internet isn't always the best option. Maybe a few internet friends privately would be better. Anyway, if you wrote about it on paper, you'll feel better.
| Mona wrote: | To be honest, another reason that bothers me is the fact that maybe it's just my stepfamily. I don't feel close to them, and I don't feel like they give a *crag* about me. My step-dad acts like I hate him, and he gets mad at me for joking around or being sarcastic, and claims I have an attitude about everything, which is WHY I'm so depressed and anti-social. He keeps thinking that I was anti-social BEFORE, well, recently. That's not true. I'm only anti-social because no one even seems to care about me anymore. My family can't even say they love me without adding on a sarcastic comment. It kinda maksme feel bad, you know? I know that my Mom and my older sister all love me, but other than them, I don't think anyone else does. Well, in my household, anyways. I'm sure my Grandma, Dad, younger half-brother do. Maybe my step-mom and my younger step-cousins, as well. My older brother constantly tries to put me down and tease me, and has already stated that he hates me, and not just when he's mad at me. He just hates me. Now my little brother is becoming like him. Not only that, but my little brother actually inflicts physical pain on me...and never gets in trouble for it. But if I poke him, I get in trouble. Now, because my older sister moved out, I have no one to defend me, because she was the only one who really understood how I was feeling.
|
Ouch... That's horrible. Have you tried talking about it? I know it's gonna be hard, but it may make a difference. If that doesn't work, talk about your situation with people that you know love you. It's better to have a face to face conversation than a um..computer to computer one.
| Mona wrote: | Even so, I feel miserable. I just feel so stressed and stuff...and I can't do anything to calm myself. I can't scream and yell without getting yelled back at, I can't stand up for myself without being put down, and I can't cry without feeling embarassed.
|
Pillows. They work wonders on muffling screams. they also work great on tears too. If you'd rather cry alone, try locking the door, or cry when your in bed at night. As for being bullied, that's always bad. Think of a smart comeback or jsut tell someone about it. You can't always do everything yourself.
So just take a break. It will do you good and calm you down a bit. Try to relax, play a vidoe game or something. As far as school goes, Just take it easy, don't stress out about it.
I know I didn't help much, but still. It's nice to comfort someone. If you need to talk, I'm happy to help :3 |

well thats really great compared to me congrats. Maybe the reason is because of the environment,
If theres anyway for me to help, like help in writing up a fic or thinking of one, or not sure what to do, ask me through whatever messeging system you use and I'll do my best to help.
besides, I feel like I owe you one since you actually did taught me something. |
