Need some advice
Hi guys I’m a bit vulnerable in speaking this truth but I’m wondering if anyone has had this problem and been able to overcome it. I have suffered from depression my whole life and finally started going to Aa, 93 days sober. My problem is that I used to have drive in wanting to get my music out there about 20 years ago. For some reason I love creating music but struggle to finish anything I start. I’ve spent all the money I’ve ever earnt on music gear, computers iPads, guitars etc but still I just don’t have the fire inside me to finish anything. I thought stopping alcohol would help, maybe it has slightly but still I feel like I’ve wasted my life, I’m too old to do anything with my music. I’d like to push my YouTube channel more but lack inspiration. Inspiration comes in small waves but doesn’t last long. I feel empty and a dark cloud follows me around saying that I suck. Has anyone been able to overcome these demons and gained momentum?
