Have had personal experiences of horror. Don't know if it's a good thing to go through it would it be cathartic use of it? to write, don't know whether I will be ready to discuss it. And people judge it. I intended to write a poem about science and research biology or health. Just thinking of topics to think about. Let there be light or the fastest thing in the universe. The bids are chirping in serenity, They are tweeting, in uppity. |
Welcome to WdC! I know you aren't super new, but there's so much to learn here, usually anyone here under a year is considered a newbie. I understand your feelings. I still have things from Iraq that I can't write about. But you can always start and stop as you want/need and keep it on Private For Your Eyes Only until you are ready to share it. |
If you go under the little arrow thingy in the upper right corner of your note, there are several options, including to edit the note. The edit box appears under the note. When you complete the edit and save it, if you notice you need to edit again, you have to refresh the page to edit again...experience talking. Lol |
There are a lot of items, it is almost would be nice to have a short video to navigate the website, and how to use it. |
There were some videos done about ten years ago. Unfortunately, it's only a few, and the site has had some updates since then. You can find them and written explanations for about everything at "Writing.Com 101" and "Tutorial Videos" . |
over on the side, Writing.Com Tools has a lot of helpful links including Writing.Com 101 which can also be found at the top right hand side. Hope this helps. |
Hi, I just joined, but have been putting off joining because didn't feel it was me, none the less I need for progressing in my profession as a scientist. So then I have been writing to help me through some tragic situations. And it had helped me push through with my feelings and emotional strength when you don't have a choice. |
Also, welcome to WdC! I know you're not brand new, but you're usually considered a newbie your first year here because there's so much to learn.
If you decide you need psychiatric treatment, I think many of us here support that idea because many of us here have done it, ourselves. But if you want to work through it without a mental health professional, I know many people find writing helpful. It's not the same as treatment, but it can be good for you. Good luck!
