That didn’t take long

Published by justjessi at 10:07 pm under Ramblings, bipolar, bulimia Edit This

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?

    I want to write a book, too, but it’s been so hard getting motivated.

    I think you can write well, and I certainly want to read what you have to say, if that helps any :) What do you want to write a book on?

    Well thank you. I’ve always wanted to write a fiction novel. Starting from what I know so the main character is probably going to be bulimic :)

    lol Don’t worry about what people think. I have a simple way of getting people to leave me alone about hallucinating or hearing voices. Try telling someone, with a straight face, that the big pink bunny standing beside them wants you to kill them. I always bust out laughing and sometimes the other person does, but not always because they find it funny. Either way, they leave me alone. :-)

    Awesome :) When you finish your fiction book, let me know so I can get a copy :)
