I just should have achieved more by now and feel I'm letting other people down.<br /><br />Thanks for the words, guys. It's not my intention to fish for sympathy, just to vent my frustrations. My head is wired all wrong and depression is a kicker.Brian Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06023888442000424089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563631055689800989.post-87250658659310460792012-01-10T10:54:23.327+00:002012-01-10T10:54:23.327+00:00Been there mate, as you know.

The January blues are the worst(especially if you give up drinking!)but there is always the doc to get your seratonin levels back up.<br /><br />Tell your moaning auld mod of a neighbour Happy New Year for me, will you?Conan the Librarian™https://www.blogger.com/profile/01904339261121451779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563631055689800989.post-16882441926785440912012-01-09T23:46:01.219+00:002012-01-09T23:46:01.219+00:00Life is composed of good stuff and bad stuff.
Obv...Life is composed of good stuff and bad stuff.<br /><br />Obviously we try to maximise the good stuff and minimise the bad stuff but the idea that there is something "wrong" with someone just because bad stuff makes them feel bad and good stuff makes them feel good is ... well ... stoopid.<br /><br />It's life.<br /><br />Most people go through life letting it blow them this way and that. If you have some kind of purpose (like being a writer) you immediately start to feel those winds; some of them run counter to your purpose. So they are going to annoy and depress you.<br /><br />There's nothing wrong with that because at that point you have two choices: (a) give up and join the masses who go where the wind blows because it's easier; (b) keep your heading and remember that sometimes the wind will be at your back.<br /><br />Aharrr me hearties! Give 'em a broadside!<br /><br />(That got terribly nautical.)<br /><br />Also creative people unfortunately tend to attract that nasty little percentage of people who just *have* to bring you down. Again, it's not *you*, it's them.Adaddinsanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577587188266580561noreply@blogger.com
