oh hai guiz.
so, yeah, this is the obligatory 'IT'S NOVEMBER' post in which I tell you things you already know. like the fact that I'm crazy and am doing NaNoWriMo again this year and so will be extremely busy and will probably miss half your posts and/or forget to comment on them. sorry! I'll probably emerge from my cave in December, at which point I'm really hoping I'll not only have finished NaNo but three of my classes and the crossover exchange. so yeah.
in World View class on Friday, depression came up. I wanted so badly to be able to talk coherently about it and explain some things, because one of the girls was being an idiot about it, but my brain was too busy completely freaking to handle talking about it beyond telling her quietly "You are not qualified to deal with someone who is suicidally depressive. Make sure they get help." I want so much to be able to talk about these things in RL as well as online, but I just fall to pieces whenever I have to talk about it. I think mostly I was worried if I talked too much about it I would let personal details slip?

Date: 2009-11-02 12:25 am (UTC)I should state here - blanket warning for Consent Issues (TM) on the content of that filter, although not all that often and if ever discussed in detail I put up a cut and clear trigger warnings and so on. Let me know if that's a problem or needs particular caution.

Date: 2009-11-02 09:42 pm (UTC)filter-wise, I'm perfectly fine with that! I do not have any real triggers beyond tending to freeze up in RL during the discussion of depression/emotional abuse. thank you for the warning, though! <333

Date: 2009-11-02 11:05 pm (UTC)*tilts head* possibly that warning should've been an emotional abuse warning, actually, with some mild consent issues as a side. It is not something I've been talking about much for the last month, and I plan to keep on talking about More Interesting Things. *fingers crossed*

Date: 2009-11-03 12:25 am (UTC)Good luck on NaNo! Hey, what do you think about posting excerpts? It would totally make me more likely to finish...
no subject
Date: 2009-11-04 03:33 am (UTC)oh god. if I have anything worth excerpting - so far it's decent stuff but not anything I'd actually want to show to the world. but I would definitely read your excerpts! it would probably take a bit for me to comment though, sorry! but I will be making periodic updates as to word count and progress. probably starting at the end of this week, when things have settled a bit.
