I say talk about your feelings. It’s good for guys to do it. Like hell I am emotional as ****. I cry like all the time.
I don't know, there is alot of things that make me worried about sharing my emotions. The Internet, while it have nice peoples like some peoples on this forum show, isn't your friend in itself, you can't expect to share what you feel and always going it your way.
But, to elaborate on my fear, since it be hard to advance in any meaningful way if I don't share them:
I am very troubled person myself, always questionning everything I say, see, hear, etc...because I always want to improve myself despite my problems. But lately, I realize how just terrible such thing can be when you are a person who is quick to emotional burst, even for things you shouldn't reach as much as you should normally do.
I have dreams, project, stories, loads of stories in fact, I want to give my best to all of them and I did loads of research for all of them. But everytime, I ask myself:
"It is enough?"
"It is coherent?"
"Does this character make sense?"
"Does this plotline need to exist?"
"If yes, can I really do this? Or my writting and ideas on this will ruin it?"
And after awhile, I jusk ask:
"Should I even try?"
"Will I be even able to react properly?"
"Can I handle the pressure?"
"Can I improve as a writter and a person?"
"Are my dreams even a possibility?"
Every. Single. Day. I ask one of those questions. And because of them, I keep getting sidetracked or blocked in the way to advance those stories and improve, because of hte pressure that, if I fail horribly at what I want to do the most and put a horrible story that internet will mock for days/weeks/months/years to come. There be probably no second chance, and all of my effort would be for nothing.
Sorry to everyone here that I ruin the mood. But I had to say now or never, I know I shouldn't be sorry about sharing my fears. But...I just do, because that's the way I am, sadly...
