(3). Again, I’m really sorry if reaching out like this is creepy. I just thought that hearing that someone else was/is going through a similar writing struggle would make you feel a little better, like it did for me. :)
For me to see someone from the past trying to communicate with me is never creepy, but I understand what you mean. As I've been trying to come in contact with someone I once roleplayed with even further back and I admit it has been weird and discouraging to try and find someone you barely know.
Either way, it's nice to see the messages, and yes I'm trying to slowly push back into writing. It's something I've struggled with because of depression on top of everything else in my life.
Some people just end up in situations that stop them from creating...and it sucks; But I can say I do remember you, just not to the capacity I wish I did. I had a battle with migraines last year that went on for six months.
Sadly, I've had some memory loss; and I didn't realize it until I was staring at a former coworker that I worked with for three years and couldn't remember their name.
Since then I'm still not sure of everything I can or can't remember but I'm fully aware that I have had brain damage, and it's been rough to accept. Though, I don't see anyone as a failure for stopping something because we all eventually will come back to the things we enjoy in our own times.
For some people it will be minor breaks like a few days or weeks...and for others, it can be years. I've just accepted that as a thing that happens and hopefully, we get to connect with some of the same people when we all come back to write. :)
