Yup- and then I panic when I have to start writing because I don't think I can repeat how well I wrote before.pic.twitter.com/baof06m3SB

Oh my gosh, this is so timely for me! I was just reading through old essays when I should have been working on a conference paper and I don't think this paper will be as good as those essays...

Yea, that's kinda the feeling. Like, I think I've let complexity creep back into my writing, and I don't like it one bit.

I am so glad I'm not the only one who feels like this! Starting to write my PhD thesis last year took me about a week of staring at my laptop thinking that everything I wrote would be the hottest of hot garbage. Starting to write is my biggest stressor!

Yes to all of this! I should be starting to write my thesis now and am hoping this conference paper will ease me into it, but I have also just stared at my computer all week!

Okay good. I guess it's common and we're all in this bullshit together.

Are any of you afflicted with the self-defeatist yoyo version of this where, when you're writing, you're sure it's absolute garbage but when you come back months later, you think, wow I used to be so smart back then--I wonder if I'll ever be capable of anything near this again.
