Forums » Smalltalk » Low Muse

Right now I am feeling low muse and or anxiety of wanting to role play with those I am role playing with. I know I should be patient, but I have been ghosted in the past...And I can never shake the feeling. So if I come off as impatient, that's why. So if you role play with me, I might either not worry or become impatient. Depends on how I am feeling that day. Especially when I have to work. I work nights so during the day would be best time for me. My days off is a different story. I only have two days off so doing some role play in between is key to keep my sanity going. I would role play with my wife, but she, too, lost the muse. Plus I did it to her, so she doesn't want to. It's like a double edged sword at this point. That's pretty much it....

I completely get that! I've been ghosted in and out of rps. I don't and try my best not ghost, unless I die or I'm unable to use the site for whatever reasons.. lol.

It really sucks. I don't do it either. And the muse stems from multiple things. Anxiety is one of them.

Sorry to read that, it's never fun. Many of us feel same, some deal with it, some don't. But on the forum are some little helpers that either have a free shoulder to cry on (if you allow the expression) or have edited a Mental Health Resources page, this is really interesting to read

Oh, please, do not think of me assuming you to be 'insane' or psychologically affected. Far from that, these are simple ideas to deal with certain situations

Thanks. Honestly I take medicine to deal with some of the issues I deal with.

I am in a group that ghosting is beyond rare. Outside that group, it is a huge issue. I found methods to greatly limiting the likelihood of being ghosted. However, it comes at the cost of a smaller pool of writers. All I can say is learn to identify key warning shared and if enough dots form be aware of the risk you are taking or dint take them at all.

I will take that into consideration. I will be soon in a small group that is based off of Warhammer. My character, Ami started out as a renegade but now a soldier in the army that again based on Warhammer. Adepta Sororitas (AKA: Sisters of Battle).

Yup. I have been reading. I have found groups yield the highest rate of completion. Maybe its because there sre other eyes so there is more of a sense of responsibility to commit? That, or I am really good at detecting who is more likely to finish and not. Maybe both? Who knows.

Regardless, wish you luck with your rps.
