Y'know when you step away from something for half a year, things start to make sense. This is a fun app and the stories I've read have been incredible and inspiring, but I'm here to create, and looking back on my work despite the concepts all of it feels cringeworthy. So I'm at a crossroads, I don't want to delete what I've created but I can no longer work in the same space as my earlier works. What should I do? 
          	Create a New Acc and feel haunted by the account I left behind?
          	Or move to a different site like AO3 and start with a blank slate?
          	
          	Strangers if you can take the time out of your day to lend a poor fool a hand, I implore you to do so, please help me decide.

@At_Fandom_Crossroads In that case, I would say move to something like AO3 and start anew, to give yourself a bit of headspace to breathe. I found that that  temporarily signing off this site helped me a lot, and eventually I found motivation to revisit and update old works of mine (not without revisions, if course,). Still, if you find at any time in the future you can make peace with deleting, coexisting with, or revising your old works, you should.

@At_Fandom_Crossroads Hey man,  if you need to talk to anyone, there are a lot of people on here and probably in your real life you can talk to (myself included). For the friendship,  you've got to talk it out and try and figure out what went wrong. Any relationship, whether romantic or platonic, is people having the patience to try and persevere past the rough parts. That's all it is; just two people making it work. Just stick it out, and keep your chin up.
