...feel like life is kicking your ***?!
I feel like I'm taking a beating right now! Between hospitalizations, unfortunate medication withdrawal, a lousy psychiatrist, being court ordered and having the ****ing police show up at my door, computers crashing, laptops crashing resulting in writing projects being gone/novel revisions disappearing/synopsis rewrites I slaved over receiving the same fate, novel rejections, just receiving one where my novel made it through a second reread and readers were impressed by it/liked it BUT THEY STILL SENT ME A REJECTION, not being able to afford to buy a new laptop so I can't really do anything as far as marketing goes right now, pushing twenty thousand dollars in medical debt... Blah blah blah. Certain I'm missing some. It would be nice if I could catch a break. I'm tired of being a punching bag. Thinking about these series of misfortunes is making me want to geek out! And no I'm not depressed. I'm ****ing pissed!

And you have a right to be. Hi Rasps. I revived your post about the Lamictal. But I think it's not a good moment to talk about that. It's good to let it all out. I cacht up with you tomorrow. "The olds" (me) got to bed early. (((HUGS))).

For me it takes between two and four months to write a novel. It takes me much longer to figure everything out for one though. The one that just got the rejection took two and a half I think. It was an awesome two and a half months. I felt fantastic.

Sorry that happened to you. Sucks. Were you admitted after the evaluation, or did they let you go home?

I'm sorry to hear all of the overwhelming things that are going on right now in your life. I feel this way too sometimes. I guess it makes us stronger when we survive it all.

Thanks, manicdiamond! I'll be alright. Just had a raving moment triggered by that rejection. And then I had a total geeking out moment about it all. Lol. Sometimes all you can do is laugh.

I'm sorry you are struggling.
I have had different life experiences from you but I get it being sucky. I have been increasingly depressed and can find no relief. And, I can hardly pay our bills. I've rarely ever been behind but now that seems to be the norm. Anyway, I hate seeing you struggle my friend. All my love.
