Someone please tell me if they relate to this.
My mental state has changed a lot over the past few months. I graduated high school, I got a job, I managed to get an amazing boyfriend. Man, my dog even passed away 8 months ago. I’m still catching myself thinking he’s here sometimes. Through all of that, I’ve found myself not wanting to finish the books I’ve completed. I wrote them as a different person. I now see them as just...childish. I had no idea what a real relationship was like. I never had a job. I never experienced true love. Truthfully, as much as I liked to think I was an adult, and mature at the ages 15, 16 and even 17, I wasn’t. I’m only 18 and I know for a fact I’m not an adult. But I don’t want to write in those books anymore. They don’t seem...good. They aren’t. I’m aware of that. Truth is, I want to write about things that I can put my heart into. So as much as I loved writing my books, and as much as I would love to complete some, I physically can’t. Even my mental state won’t allow. It’s frustrating. But where do I go from here? What do I write? Should I rewrite them? I would love to. I have tried. I don’t know anymore.
