my head is so crowded with emotions and words, but they're all mixed up. i feel like i have to write something and i know its in there, but it won't come out. i feel like if i don't get it out, i'm doomed...but i can't.

take a few deep breaths...you can do it and you'll feel better once you do!

love you

if I had a great big red "BULLSHIT" stamp
i'd use it on 1/2 the pages in my journal

sometimes i find the sense through the nonsense

so, all's i'm saying is, what you write might be
nonsense, but you might come out the otherside
knowing something a little bit better

cathartic, purging... all that good schtitt

when/if i do it, i'll send it to you...it will be a mass of unrelated words, nothing making sense. but you know me so well...maybe you'll be able to decipher for me, tell me what's going on in this brain o'mine.

Aww, violet ray!!! I think PN's right, just write it all down and get it out!! Really, often times you can make sense of the nonsense--'cause once it's on paper, it just seems to make more sense because you're looking at it from a different angle. What was a mess of jumbled thoguhts is now on paper and I'd bet that there'd be some sort of recurring pattern--something to make sense of! Try to give yourself a break, run a bubble bath, light some candles, play some relaxing music, pour a glass of wine (or whatever tickles your fancy ) and just free your mind for a few minutes. I find that sometimes doing just that clears your head a little and makes you feel more peaceful. Then, appraoch your paper with all those thoughts and if you have to, try to make sense of them one at a time.

Take care, sweetie and try not to be too hard on yourself!

Aww violet ray!

*hugs*

We've all been there. These creative moments can often feel like they only come in spurts...but even at a time like this there are creative juices flowing in you! I know it seems hard to tap into them right now, but they ARE there. Why don't you try just sitting down and getting these feelings on paper...these feelings of not being able to get anything out. Shit, even this very thread itself is poetic...

"i know its in there, but it won't come out. i feel like if i don't get it out, i'm doomed...but i can't."

Expand on that! I'm sure you'll come up with something beautiful.

Best of luck.

You know you got one hell of a support team here.
