How do you deal with mental illness?
dangrover: This is a topic worth discussion -- I bet a lot of people here have some of these issues.For your writing, I'd suggest continuing it, but putting it into some kind of "buffer" so that it doesn't get immediately posted to your blog. Then trim it down to the best, most polished entries, and pass it through some friends to review before being published. I think PG does something like this for his more significant/weighty essays.
