I've been feeling quite low, lately. Depressed and lacking motivation to really do much. Struggling with self-doubt.

I'm feeling quite depressed and really frustrated. 😟😔🤬 Very little seems to have gone right for me this year. From my laptop not working and functioning as it should, to me taking ill in the spring and summer months. It's been crap, to put it nicely.

Ahsa feeling like a right dunce... 🤦‍♂️ I thought there's was an issue with my guitar's input jack socket as the sound signal from my guitar kept cutting out. So, I got in touch with my local music instrument store, telling them this. They tell me to bring it in so they can have a look at it...

Good to hear that things are starting to improve for you, lily. Equally great is how that YouTube video helped a lot and how you were able to apply the techniques discussed in it. Though, you're also absolutely right about how positive affirmations help when it comes to our minds getting...

What do I want my future to look like? 🤔 Like Xervello, this is a question I struggle to answer. Mainly because I don't tend to think about. really. I guess I'd like to be a wee bit more independent and not so reliant upon those around me to do things for me. But that's more related to my...

Aw, thanks you, lily. ☺️ I'm going to try and get things started up again within the next week in terms of making music again.

That's true. 😊 😂😄😁 Ah guess... yer right. Though, speaking as someone who failed at my music exams during high school, and was discouraged from studying that subject any further. It's an odd feeling to say yer going to have a go at making music after nearly 2 decades playing guitar. Nae prior...

Slightly annoyed that it took me getting my TV mounted to the wall in my bedroom for my mum to suggest sitting my laptop on the kallax unit now that there's more space for it. She couldnae huv mentioned that before... when I could just move muh telly along the unit a bit and made room for my...

My hopes and dreams? Well... I'd like to be more confident in myself. Also, being able to say "No" without feeling guilty - like I'm being letdown for doing so would nice. Coupled with that, it'd be nice to be able to justify my decision for saying "No" and have it be respected. I hate that...

Really nervous... The Fringe, Fame And Me - BBC Scotland Documentary - British Comedy Guide ^ Oh, 🤬!! Ah shouldnae huv watched this documentary, as it's just put the dare my oldest sister put me up to next year into sharp focus. Busking in Edinburgh, fine. During the Edinburgh Fringe...?! 😬😨

Sorry to hear that you're not feeling well, and that weren't able to get outdoors to exercise, lily. I hope you get well soon.

No need to be sorry, lily. When we're struggling with anxiety, especially social anxiety, we can't help how we come across sometimes. I also struggle with eye contact so can definitely relate, sadly.

I can't sleep... and need to be up in a few hours time. My mind seem awfy active during the night than the day; thinking about stuff. Mainly, music related. Like how I need to make a logo that I can use across the various platforms that I'll be uploading my music, but kinda suck when it comes...

Thanks Pug. Thanks lily. Shows where my minds at that ah never even considered a 4th option, Pug. 🤦‍♂️😆😁

I'm feeling... unsure, I guess. Doubting myself. Wondering if I'm just a talentless hack; feeling like I'm not a good enough guitarist and/or songwriter to deserve the following I've gained on SoundCloud in last, what'll be now? 5 years... I still feel most of that was a fluke, and that I'm in...

Playing the guitar (bass, electric and acoustic) Playing the piano Listening to and making music Reading books Collecting comic books Drawing (Though I haven't done that in years) Going to the cinema occasionally Exercising and keeping myself in shape

This wouldn't be referring to me by any chance, would it? 😏 😆😄😁 Anyway, I'm still not back to full health – still got an irritating cough. 🤧 But I'm trying to get on with things despite it. So, I'm feeling a lot better than I was a few weeks ago. It wasn't great being pretty bedridden and not...

I've not been up to much, really. Mainly tidying out my room a bit more, whilist I get my music recording setup sorted. And I'm going to see about getting the old TV aerial in my bedroom upgraded.

I agree that we definitely need to play our part when it comes taking care of the environment. I don't smoke, and was never interested in taking up the habit. Even when I was a teenager, and everyone I knew was doing it. But then I've never really been one for doing something just because...

Thank you, lily. :) We're currently experiencing a bit of heatwave here in Scotland, and over the UK as a whole; so it's too hot to do much, if anything, at the moment.
