I'm not much of a reader, sorry. This winter I'm going to try to change that.

As a writer everything you create if it's true to yourself should not be a source of shame.

Paranoia is so tough. The fact that you know you're having paranoid thoughts is easy enough to rationalize but it often comes in such big waves.

'w'! It is fine if you don't read much, some stories are often best kept quiet. I... Certainly hope skinning animals and stitching their hides to a flayed human isn't true to myself @w@... That'd be terrifying... But it isn't shame I feel for writing. I write things that people are shocked by. It's meant to invoke feelings and emotions in them. I also write character profiles in between because I'm an idiot altaholic, hehe.

>w>... Paranoia is really difficult to deal with because even if you know you have it, much like depression and anxiety, it doesn't automatically 'cure' itself. "Oh you know you're depressed? Well just be happy!" that kind of mentality has been thrown at me a lot. Therapy helps. It doesn't cure, but it helps.

That story was so deeply creative. And visceral. And well crafted. And no Im not into such. The writing is good and the premise is stunning.

'w'! I am grateful for your praise, thank you!

On a different note. I spent years in dark depression mixed with paranoia and anxiety... I get it... Now to be fair I've never given any fucks if folks liked me. But im weird af.

-w-... Humans are all weird, they're unique, yet try to be the same because they're social. Aberrant genetics aside, it's really hard to define a human's purpose outside their own desires. One is most defined by their actions, and your actions have been good to me so far.

My word is my bond. I am only as good as I do.

Feel free to take it easy. Be good to yourself there.

;w;... Being good to gremlin robo brain is kinda hard these days when it's not being good to me, mweh!
