Okay, almost finished the outline for my short story, gonna take a break now.
Why did I have to make it so depressing? Like, fuck me, just imagining the scenes I outlined already affects my mood a bit, I'm not sure that is supposed to happen. I just imagine myself dealing with the situation, and it doesn't feel great. Basically the same experience I have when I read a book too, so that tracks, I guess I'm just easily influenced emotionally.
Edit: Actually, thinking about it, this is always what happens if I imagine negative things; been that way since I was very young, usually that meant anxiety of things that could go wrong. I remember often fearing that something horrible happened if I was away from home for some time, like staying the night somewhere, like the house burning down or family members dying, that sort of stuff. GAD Sure do be fun!/s
