Useful advice, and the people pleasing thing is totally me as well... that's part of the problem really. I'm in the bit of my career where I need to do that "proactive" thing, which basically means sending stuff to people who don't know me and may well reject me, and dragging myself out of bed in the morning and producing work which may never get any approval off anyone. If I can get past this stage I may well end up with something that suits me much more (where I get to people please..). I think it's a big push at the moment, and the annoying thing is that I'm SO chaotic and lethargic at the moment. I do need some meds that work but am at the mercy of the NHS's arbitrary, penny-pinching system. I was on Effexor for a bit, but it made me exhausted so I was sleeping 20 hours a day. I then went on Celexa and I had more energy but NO sex life and some weight gain and that in itself made me depressed. I'm on nothing at the moment cos I'm sick of feeling like some scientific experiment.
Sorry, going on a bit now. Think I'll marry an American and move to the States where I might get some proper treatment...
