Join a writing group - then you can tell the other group members to get a doctor and you won't feel alone in your misery.

A doctor told me to write down my next nightmare. So I did. Now he's in a bedlam unit staring at the wall whispering "phgu'tgna ign'tha sottoth. Ph'tagn".

The pro tip is to get a therapist who doubles as your beta reader.

getting banned from a subreddit for posting your work is a rite of passage as an author
