This writing business is extremely frustrating. I also feel like I'm too easily discouraged. I was telling DG about how I seem to fluctuate between confidence and extreme despair, and she told me, "That's grad school."
This made me feel so much better, that it is 'normal' to feel that way in this particular time and setting. Still, I wonder if I can do this... And if I can't, what else can I actually do? Sometimes, even the encouragement people offer is overwhelming, because if I fail, I also let them down. I probably should be less obsessed with failure. That's hard for me to do.
