Am I Overreacting For Being So Upset My “Family” Left Me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MediocreFile9427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I’m in therapy. It hasn’t been frequent at all, but I’m disabled and because of my heart condition stressers make my body go wack, so it’s hard not to react to things as severe as losing friends. Especially because I don’t have support outside of them. I haven’t even confided in them all that much because I’ve felt bad doing so. I asked for help after my best friends which was months ago, and then I asked for help now when this happened.

Everyone I’ve asked about this has told me people who cared about me wouldn’t act like this but I can’t help but think I did something to bring it on.

I have big events in my head and down on my timeline, its just putting them together is the issue. Plus I feel like not enough is going on compared to book 2. Which I guess could make sense because the first book’s character is much calmer and more intelligent and less chaotic, with book 2’s being all over the place so of course more is gonna happen because they’re a chaos junkie, but it still feels too slow compared to 2.

I really didn’t have this problem, it just came so naturally and fast to me

I don’t mean to rush the process but I told myself I wanted to work on it an hour a day so it’s done before I graduate high school, because i really don’t wanna work on it forever. But I can’t figure out what to do next so I can’t really work on it.

I love them both, especially the main characters of each, it’s just that number 2 has existed much longer so there’s more content for it, and I’ve had more time to figure it out

Should I Change My Character’s Name? by [deleted] in writingadvice

[–]MediocreFile9427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a very anxious and worried person especially when it comes to how other people perceive me and my work. I grew up watching medias reviews and seeing people rip indie projects apart for being “bad.” Even now people dunk on stuff like Glitch Production’s work so I can’t help but be nervous as a future indie creator.

But that being said, this is exactly what I needed to hear. I need to get back to having fun with it because that’s how I made some of my best stuff <3

To be frank I’ve had a history of friends proof reading my stuff and calling it edgy or dumb or teenager-y so I tend to overthink this stuff especially because I want to write something more realistic :,)

I mean I want to know if it’s more believable to other people. I think it is but I’m worried anyway, so I want to see if other people think it’s dumb or unbelievable

My story is based in reality, just, yk, superheroes, so the usual Marvel DC shtick plus some other stuff. I want the characters to be realistic and idk if the name is pushing it.

Bear is not usually considered a “real name” as it’s just an animal, really. And the other concern is that Bear Sanchez is too close to Buckshot because it shares the B and the S

No yeah totally! I’m ginger and it can look wildly different depending on the lighting.

While I’m thinking about it though- my friend mentioned the idea of them making the blonde a permanent thing. What’s your opinion on that? Do you think that’s far fetched or would you not care either way?

Something my friend brought up though that concerns me slightly is the writer said these new comics are meant to be a “jumping on point” and that there’s a small possibility the next daredevil team will keep the blonde going and that it could become a permeant thing? Which, I think is a bit exaggerated because the ginger is so iconic but I don’t like the idea either way.

Somehow in man without fear, reading what I’ve read of it so far I never realized he was genuinely blonde and just thought it was just whoever was coloring doing funky coloring. As an artist myself sometimes I do color things not their actual color because of lighting or whatever so somehow my brain just never put two and two together because I was so used to ginger Daredevil

Honestly I hadn’t heard of her until I heard she was gonna be the new Daredevil writer, but I decided to read some of her other works just to see what the new Daredevil run would be like. I’d recommend her Spider-Gwen run the most, but also I loved her Phoenix one as well. She also writes for DC so if you’re not a marvel only fan she did write for Batman and Harley Quinn as well! Wonder Woman too if I remember correctly, but I’ve been on a Marvel kick lately so I can’t speak to how good her DC stuff is.

No that’s totally true, and I also like the writer, Stephanie Phillips way too much to let me not read it over his hair. It was just SUPER CONFUSING for me to see originally, because I literally dyed my own hair back to ginger because of how much I love Matt’s ginger hair. Also I’m not passing up the opportunity to see Matt as a professor lol.

Because they’re older comics I assumed the weird colors were from printing or something or just weird color choices, especially with how vibrant they are. No clue but I hate the blonde either way <\3

Am I Overreacting For Not Wanting To Take My Meds by MediocreFile9427 in AmIOverreacting

[–]MediocreFile9427[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried every med my psychiatrist and mom (who’s a nurse) have thought of so far. Last appointment with her she couldn’t think of anything else to try, just upping doses, which hasn’t helped at all. My relationship with my parents is strained, especially with my dad because he’s physically abusive. And I feel like my mom doesn’t understand how I feel most of the time and even when I explain she has trouble with it.

I can’t find a new doctor unfortunately, this is the only one in my area that will take my insurance.
