User Shade has been generally woe-is-me in the chat for a bit, then this happened.
[18:07:40] <Shade> Am still gonna cry at 6 am
[18:08:11] <Shade> Because I will never get my shit onto the forums and in turn, not get greenlights
[18:08:21] <Shade> Because I have no central narrative
[18:08:37] <Shade> Time to cry because I am a terrible writer
[18:08:40] <CelesteKara> Who here
[18:08:43] <CelesteKara> likes spiders?
[18:09:13] <Shade> I can't, why is life so hard
[18:10:03] <Shade> I feel so stupid for crying, I can't-
[18:10:14] <anorrack> you don't need a narrative if the scp is good

[18:13:45] <anorrack> wtf
[18:13:48] <anorrack> how are they still joining
[18:13:54] <Shade> I can't do this anymore, I'm so stressed, I don't know what's my central narrative
[18:14:06] <anorrack> when did you start writing this article
[18:14:17] <anorrack> Took me a literal year to finish my last article
[18:14:43] <Shade> I am going to die, I just fucking can't
[18:14:46] <anorrack> and you can ask critters who check out your article for input, whether that be additions to the central narrative, themes that the article can focus on, or simple SPaG
[18:14:58] <anorrack> just leave it for a few hours
[18:15:13] <anorrack> I got a few of my articles and their themes just by doing something completely different
[18:15:34] <fairydoctor> MalyceGraves thanks!
[18:15:50] <MalyceGraves> fairydoctor: we prepare this stuff all the time for the various tests we perform

[18:16:44] <Shade> Wish this ain't a panic attack after some y e a r s
[18:16:47] <MalyceGraves> Shade: Relax. It's writing. No one is forcing you to write. Read a bit, or go outside.
[18:17:00] <fairydoctor> MalyceGraves: dont mind me asking but what is it that you do?
[18:17:02] <MalyceGraves> Take a walk. Drink some water. Play a video game. Walk away.
[18:17:22] <DrAkimoto> Really is the best advice
[18:17:37] <ihp> .seen shaggydredlocks
[18:17:39] <Secretary_Helen> I last saw shaggydredlocks 11 hours ago in #site19 saying: Howdy
[18:17:40] <fairydoctor> Shade: im probably gonna watch a markiplier playthrough of fnaf, i "need" to get to writing my D-Class, but i cant force blood from stone
[18:17:48] <MalyceGraves> fairydoctor: we test water from wastewater treatment plants, power plants, manufacturing facilities for toxicity. We're a part of the regulatory apparatus protecting the environment
[18:17:55] <Shade> I'm so stressed on finding a narrative for my drafts
[18:18:08] <fairydoctor> MalyceGraves: thats fucking rad!
[18:18:18] <MalyceGraves> My job is to do data analysis for each test we perform
[18:18:25] <Shade> I might die, I can't breathe

[18:19:05] <Lt_Flops> do thee 4-7-8 breathing technique
[18:19:46] <MalyceGraves> Shade: Seriously, yo. If you're having this much difficulty, you should unplug and do something else for a bit, not chat with a bunch of faceless people online.
[18:20:34] <Shade> I literally can't go out, my abusive grandma is literally t h e r e

[18:22:21] <taylor_itkin> This is not the place to be putting that kind of stuff out. No one here is equipped to help you handle that.
[18:22:52] <Shade> Yeah, but I can't think of a central narrative for my draft
[18:23:03] <taylor_itkin> which is unrelated to your grandmother
[18:23:36] <Shade> I know that, but I'm just probably breaking down on something stupid
