          	Time appears to slow down almost to a stop as your brain begins making rapid calculations.

Sometimes it’s possible to right your trajectory. but sometimes the ground is too uneven, there are too many obstacles, or there’s something ahead on your path that will damage you much worse if you continue to rush into it.

          	The stress of it all kicked off another depressive episode. I’d like to say i recognized it right away, but there was some denial involved. I didn’t want to go through this again. But here I am. I’m back in therapy, I’m taking my meds. I’m doing better. I’m regaining focus. 
          	
          	I fell down. I’m getting up again. It is just taking some time. 
          	
          	I miss writing. I am trying very hard to return to it. It is a sort of therapy for me. It’s good for my mental state. It’s fun. It makes me happy. But my brain needs to cooperate. 
          	
          	I don’t know how long it will be before i have a completed chapter for you all. I am hoping that will happen soon, but I simply can’t make any promises. With some luck, however, things will continue to be quieter now and i can recover and get back to the things I love sooner rather than later. 
          	
          	Thank you to those who have reached out. Apologies to those waiting for the next chapter of my stories. I am writing, but only a few words a day. Hopefully, progress will continue. 
          	
          	tl’dr: Writer’s life turns into a disaster movie, plot change in progress. Writing indefinitely on hold but here’s to hoping the hold is a brief one.

@wraithex I feel you. I'm back in therapy too. My meds are screwed up right now. I struggled a lot this winter. It's hard to go through those times, when you're in that place you feel like it's going to last forever. It's great that you're aware of what's going on. I like to crank 'Alibi' on high and sing 'I fell apart, But got back up again.' when this happens. Even music in general makes me FEEL again instead of being numb. I have oppositional defiance disorder to a certain extent, so I fight myself to play music some days cause I know it might help. I'm a real case, lol! Anyway, major hugs. I'll be waiting no matter how long it takes for more chapters. More than that sending you positive and healing energy. You rock girl! <3

Hey, I’ve been reading Presque Vu and loving the story especially as they are being more honest with each other. I was initially going to post a message to beg you to continue the story. However I’ve just read your post from last year, I hope you’re doing ok? I hope you are feeling more positive after such a dark time? Hopefully you are doing things that are healing for you. 
          Excellent writing, great characters, thanks for the story x

          Personal, you can skip to the tl;dr at the end if you want to know what’s up with my writing. 
          
          The last approximate year for me has been a crazy, out-of-control rollercoaster for me. In retrospect, it barely even seems real. I’ve had several severe health scares, including pneumonia, asthma and lung issues, kidney failure, and a cancer scare. I spent about a week in the hospital and many more days in and out of doctors’ offices for tests and consultations. I spent months having to have round the clock oxygen support while my lungs healed. Some of the medications I was on made me sleepy or made it difficult to impossible to concentrate. 
          
          In addition to my health issues, I’ve had three friends die, five pets, and a woman I only ever called Mom (although she was not my mother, who passed away many years ago). Once my health settled down i returned to work at a new job. And of course, there have been the day to day stresses of simply adulting.  
          
          I have shared before that I have struggled with Major Depressive Disorder for years. I have a severe form, but I have gotten better about managing it over time, and it’s been a long time since I’ve had an extended depressive episode. 
          
          Have you ever tripped over something while you were walking?

I apologise for the temporary hiatus on all my works. I am having some significant health issues at this time and I'm not finding the hospital a particularly conducive creative environment. Hopefully I will be able to return home and be back to writing about our favorite brothers again soon!

I am slowly republishing my stories. I apologize for pulling them but I've been having some issues with an individual that led to me making everything private temporarily. Things should be back to normal soon. I apologize for the notification span you may receive, I'll be spacing things out so it's not all republished at once.

Hey all! First off I would like to congratulate everyone for their placement in the Jared Leto/30 Seconds to Mars Fan Fiction Contest. There were some awesome entries, and if you haven't checked them out, you should. There are some great writers in this fandom that totally rock!
          
          I also wanted to thank @SavannahElyse for running the contest. You did an amazing job keeping everything running smoothly. Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into this. 
          
          I know I have been slow updating lately. I have been very busy with some other things. I should have some new chapters for you soon.  Until then, have a great week!
