    Writers block does suck. :/ I used to love writing and I'm looking into taking a creative writing course in the summer term. And I wish you luck on your book and the music thing it sounds like it'd be pretty cool I was writing a novel before but stopped halfway when my writers block (and criticism I was getting) got in the way, and I've written lots of short stories and poems.

    Haha, yeah I understand. Well its good you have people to distract you at least

    Yeah, I write just about everything; novels, short stories, poetry, songs, you name it Music is probably more of my thing, and I hope to go into the music industry when I'm older if I make it that long. Writers block is a b*tch, pardon my wording :P It does really suck. I'm just.... lucky that I don't have it right now. I NEED to finish my book

    I guess I'd never really think of using medication to help me sleep, though my friends have begged me to get help, one way or another. I'm lucky that some of them stay up, even to about midnight, but I guess we're awake for different reasons

    lI see, it makes sense, You just need to keep trying things until you figure out what works the best Oh, you write? Thats awesome, I used to write a lot when I was younger...but Ive been having some serious writers block the past year or two. Its like my brain won't focus on something creative, or words just won't come out. But I want to get back into it

    I understand about the sleep thing. My friend has night terrors and she's terrified to go to bed. But these meds, the zopiclone at least, knocks you out after an hour or so. So really, even if you're over thinking or scared to sleep, it just knocks you out, lol. &I used to do that too. I have a bunch of fiends who live all over the country, so in different time zones, so I used to stay up really late on Skype with them. It was really bad when i first started dating my bf who was 4 hours behind me, so we would like talk sometimes until like six in the morning my time lol. But now I live in the same time zone and were both really busy so its not like that anymore lol

    I've tried so many methods, most probably not the greatest of ideas, but when I find the right one, I think I'll just know, because I won't need the pain any longer. Music helps me a lot, as does writing, and I do have some great and supporting friends there for me as well
    Haha, I guess its not getting to sleep, its just, my mind makes me see hallucinations in the day, and I panic a lot, and then at night it gets really... just gross I guess. Nightmares suck. But at least I'm not up until 3:00 talking to my friend like it used to be

    Aw, I understand Well, its good that you acknowledge that it isn't the right answer. I've never done something to actually physically harm myself (I'm prob to chicken, lol). But I have done it something similar once, when I took the max dose of tylenol extra strengths at once to try and numb the emotional pain I was feeling...it wasn't a good idea.
    Have you tried other ways of coping with your depression? I've been dealing with it too, and I'm currently on Prozac (I might switch though) and I have a psychiatry referral starting this summer.

    And insomnia does suck, you can always try melatonin, or valerian root, they both are really cheap and you can find them in the vitamin section at drugstores. Or you can talk to your family doctor about a prescription one, like zopiclone or something similar. Those really knock you out, lol.

    Well... I guess right now, for the third time, I'm trying to give up self harm and I'm trying to be happy, but I'm so easily triggered, and I myself like to give myself reasons to do it. Its not good though, and it isn't an answer. Ever.
    Insomnia is horrible, I think I developed it last year and its only getting worse I however, am not on anything. Should be, should be

    ahah, no I understand. i have bad insomnia sometimes because I think way to much, so I take melatonin, but that just gives me really scary and super realistic dreams and it freaks me out, loll. But yeah I understand. I have depression too, it sucks. :/ Do you need to talk about it? I might be able to help.

    No problem I'm glad you're doing okay
    Well, considering its midnight and I'm still up, I guess that means I can't sleep again (I have nightmares. They suck)
    I'm alright, I mean, I could be better... just depression.
