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?

*hugs you* Oh, lovely. Sucks when classes throw things like that up at you...

Wish I could help somehow :s I don't even comment much - a lot of the time this year my own crap and/or lucymonster's has been as much as as i can engage with at any given moment. But I read and I... I appreciate your honesty, I suppose? And I have considerable respect for your capacity to pull yourself through again and again. :)

I wish I could say something helpful about speaking from experience without, you know, talking about personal stuff, but I don't really have any ideas. Sometimes I've found that looking at something fixed helps me when I talk about things that make me anxious though--it keeps my breathing normal.

Good luck on NaNo! Hey, what do you think about posting excerpts? It would totally make me more likely to finish...
