rambles in a world of my own

In an attempt to get back writing I’m taking the advice of some friends and tapping out some drabbles. Don’t expect high quality, but I’m posting them so that I can see I’ve made progress

I just got my homework completed for the week apart from one exam on Wednesday morning and thought I’d take a bit of me time (a thing that’s been far too rare lately) and do some writing. But I’ve since been sat here for the afternoon deleting everything I write after a few sentences. I’m presuming it’s a mix of writer’s block and depression, but it’s driving me insane. :(

I assume most of the writers here get stuck form time to time. What do you do when you can’t form a plot, challenges don’t have prompts that appeal to you, and everything you do write seems flat and lifeless. I really want to write but don’t know where to start – and that’s possibly the first time in my life I’ve been like this.

I don’t now whether to use my emotions t help (and risk breaking down but possibly get it out in the open) or go wit something light hearted.

Can anyone help?
