[Ebidis]

that sucks about your mom man.
ill be fine....for the last 6 months, ive had a normal heartbeat for the first time in my life, and im just doing other things besides just playing the friggin guitar all the time. im sure ill get back at it.

Sometimes something unexpected happens. I just found a new drummer. And he likes the same music I do.

Understood. I know we don't know each other very well yet, but I have been told that I am a good sounding board, with occasional worthwhile advice. Feel free to PM me any time

It happens to all artists and musicians.
Some of them quit, and some of them find new ways to keep going.

Hang in there.
Hope as you get other life issues sorted the lust for those strings under your fingers will return.

Helter, I can only imagine how you're feeling but I can definitely see it's painful for you. What I do know for sure, from what I have experienced these few months that I've been a part of TTR, is that this tight-knit community is always there to help in any way possible, no matter what. Even if it's only by the simplest act of lending an attentive and empathetic ear and offering a word... of knowledge, of advice but overall, a word of comfort and support... or a thousand!

I think I'm speaking for everyone when I say that it has been more than established that we're all in a way, family. Granted, a very unique family of everything-related-to-six-string enthusiasts and scholars (yes, and also 4-string and 5 and 7, 8, 12... but who's counting?) but ultimately: Family. Just tell us how we can help make it better... As Mitch said: "It will pass". And we're all here by your side to make sure it happens, Bro!
