I'm sorry my stories stay unfinished for months or years - I'm working on it

I know what it's like to become engrossed in a story and then the author abruptly stops it. It's really annoying, and I'm sorry that all of my stories do that. I have PTSD, anxiety, depression and ADHD, so I'm all over the place writing and in real life.

I finally got a psychiatrist that's helping me with my ADHD. I'm starting on Ritalin next month. I'm going to be closely monitored, but I hope it works. She didn't want to put me on a stimulant, because I have a heart condition that causes a double heartbeat, but all of the non-stimulants interact with my medication.

I'm a mess, with multiple chronic diseases that affect my muscles, bones, and skin, and nervous system and an autoimmune disease that affects the joints and skin (degenerative back disease, eczema, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, seborrhea, and spinal stenosis). My current medication works for that mostly. I'm still always in pain, but luckily I have a high pain tolerance. The only thing that makes the pain go away is morphine. I found that out when the doctors gave me it when I was in extreme pain while passing a kidney stone. Morphine is not a drug they give lightly, so they give me oxycodone. That scares me though, because I don't want to be addicted. So I deal with the pain every day and only take it when the pain is extreme.

My mom is reading my current story - My Magic Summer - after I finish each chapter, so that is keeping me on track in writing that for now. I'm really having fun writing this one because I get to express my feelings from when I was thirteen. I was a girly girl growing up, although I was raised as a boy. I'm intersex so I still consider my upbringing a girlhood.

If my ADHD medication works, I'll get back to Fluidity in Space after My Magic Summer is completed. That one's hard to write because it's a reaction to everything going on now, but I do enjoy the characters and the setting a lot.
