I've been struggling with living in a fantasy world. When I come back to reality, I'm often disappointed with my real life. In order to stop this self destructive cycle, I've decided to write down everything I dream up. It gives me a creative outlet, and allows me to get these unhealthy fake realities out of my head while still enjoying the stories I've created. I also used to be the main character of these stories, but I realized that that also isn't healthy. So instead I created a character named Rosie. Sort of inspired by me, but not at the same time. This way I'm still connected in a healthy way. I'll be honest, some of these stories might be a bit dark. I would make these fake realities to deal with the dark parts of my mind. Obviously struggling with depression could potentially lead to me writing about depressing/serious topics. So tread lightly. If you're reading this, or my short stories, enjoy. I'm on AO3 as well, under the same name.
