I think the big hold up on TWOW is that he's basically writing it in tandem with ADOS. For all the other books, he was running with whatever threads he left himself from the previous book and just needed a general idea of what he wanted to do in the next. Now he only has one book to follow, so there's hardly any wiggle room left. He needs to plot everything that's going to happen in Winds and Dream at the same time. So if he's run into some problem on the scale of the Meereenese Knot, it's almost automatically doubled in size. The upside is, though, once (if) TWOW is finished, he'll just have to fill in the blanks on ADOS. I predict less than two years between their publications--screenshot this.

Try psychedelics, seriously. Depression fucks with how your body uses the neurotransmitter serotonin, and psychedelics like LSD and ecstasy drastically alter your serotonin reception. I was severely depressed for about 2 years and nothing was helping, not medication, therapy, exercise, etc. My friend convinced me to try LSD with him and it was life changing. I was able to be happy in a way I hadn't been since I was a child. There is a lot of research going on right now into how psychs can help people with mental illness because the results are truly unbelievable. That said, using drugs is inherently dangerous and you need to do your research first to make sure you're safe. But if depression is really affecting your life so negatively, you need to do what it takes to get better.
