Some Weeks, Eh?

I used to post daily but, a few months back, I realised that I didn’t have much to say… and that led to some self-assessment pointing towards a reoccurrence of depression. Posting weekly has been about all I had energy and ideas for. Then this week came along…

This week we faced the mortality of our parents, the uncertainty of when to make the 180-mile pilgrimage to see a sick loved one, and the pressures of persuading work to give us compassionate leave. Turns out that sickness in the family is exhausting.

The weird thing is when the tiredness and the pressure builds into depression, you lose your interest in anything. For someone who is deeply into the RPG hobby, it’s odd to feel that you have suddenly lost all interest. Even stranger is the sense that you will perhaps never find the interest again.

Some weeks are hard. Thought I’d best own up to the ennui.

Game on?

  1. Thank you for having the courage to come into the open with this. Sometimes live gets tough, and inspiration wanes, and forcing it is just the way to burnout. Well done for giving yourself permission to take a break. Looking forward to when you do get back to wanting to write, but happy to be patient.
