    This is me. Writing gave me so much anxiety in HS and I really should have started keeping a journal or something but I didn’t. I devoured books as a kid but still I struggled with putting ideas on paper. Once got so upset at a boyscout event where I had to write an essay for a merit badge that I threw up.

    I can write a comment or even effort-post just fine, and I can type 100 wpm, it’s just something about structured writing that makes me feel Ill.
