I'm Still Alive, But... Options

[Storm Linnebjerg]

...not really been playing guitar, and still not feeling much like it. It's been that way for the past couple of months or more. I've struggled in the past with some mental health related stuff. Still am. Anyway, I had to go into some work experience/internship to see how well I would fare in that. It was at a sort of school for socially marginalized people. Cool place and all, people were friendly, they liked me, but it still stressed me out to no end. I was either sleeping 2 hours a night, lying awake, or coming straight home from the job and sleeping 15 hours till the next day. It screwed up my sleep a lot, and I lost my motivation for doing anything at all. No guitar, no nothing. I'm hoping I can find my way back to playing and composing. Didn't eat well either. Started getting paranoid and what have we. In the end it wasn't the best of experience.

Yet I've still decided to try my luck with some education, social worker education, which is actually exactly in the above field, or it could be with children or youth. We'll see. But it's still the most realistic education I can do, I think. This takes 3½ years. There's some good news as well though, as I'll likely have more money between my hands than now, even during the education, due to my health situation.

So, I wanna get back at playing guitar and composing, but there's just no inspiration, motivation or anything. It doesn't seem to come natural and it doesn't seem to come when I push for it. Not too happy about that. Maybe some of you have some advice?

So, yeah, I just wanted to share with you guys that I'm still alive and not really kicking though. Hope you're all well and grooving!

I'll try to be more active again around here, as said, the internship kinda ruined a lot for me.
