That didn’t take long

I don’t know what it is but every time I set my mind to do something that I want to do, that I think I might be potentially good at doing I get a Brat Attack out of nowhere.  Not even a full 24 hours in to the New Year and I’ve had one.

Why can’t I be Mary Poppins and just wiggle my nose and everything go away?

I’ve wanted to write a book since I was little.  I’ve read more books than most people think possible and I have a pretty extensive vocabulary and creative imagination…words have always come easy to me.  So I have an idea floating around in my head.  I’ve been toying with it and the minute I put some words down on the screen BAM! here they come.

“You can’t write a book.”
“No one wants to read anything  you have to say.”
“You have no clue what you’re doing.”
“Just because you like to read doesn’t mean you can write!”

Why oh why oh why!  And the whole bipolar issue is bugging me now to.  Since I’ve been diagnosed as bipolar is it okay to me to still refer to my eating disorder as The Brats or are people going to think that I’ve really started to hear actual voices?
