It’s a daily battle to get those things done. I feel paranoid half the time and on edge. I feel like I’m not making progress as a musician. I don’t want to be famous I just want to get better. I know it takes years and years to really become good. But I feel like I’m stuck. I mean I’m just now taking it seriously so maybe it will change. My bf said progress is really slow and frustrating but it happens if you keep working at it and learning everyday.

Blue_Bird, I don't know if this will help you or not, but I've been playing guitar and writing songs for some 10 odd years and I still feel like a failure. I'm not a complete failure. But I feel like one. I think it's ****ing awesome that you're getting back into music. I don't know - music is therapeutic for me - I need music - I crave music - just as I crave ideas - I crave knowledge - I crave to write.

Anyway, hopefully that is at least somewhat helpful.
