Probably isn't ideal long term, but something that fixed this for me was taking my rage at something happening in my life and using that energy to write.

Finished the rest of the chapter in one sitting.

#it was a <3k word chapter BUT i hadn't written anything creative in six months #i wrote a few hundred words on dec 31 last year #and then wrote the rest in a couple hours a few days ago #which uh wow was really good work actually?#esp since for a very long time my output before that long hiatus was a couple hundred words at a time #so like from that to over 2k is amazing progress #good job me #and it paid off because i impressed myself and my commenters ate it up #i will also add i think all of the time i've put into regulating nervous system has helped #so the incident didn't cause distress #anyway i say this probably isn't ideal long term bc while angry energy can be potent #it causes a crash #at least for me #(actually used some work related anger to be fast and productive at work)#(amazed i didn't crash #(only way i can explain it is an electrolyte drink idk)#personal
