I came off sounding extremely negative in my post so let me just add what I'm going to do now:

Continue with the strict schedule as it is necessary to build self-discipline again but with some editing as some things can't be accomplished anymore because of the lack of computer (I'm using my mum's right now). It will be difficult to stave off the need to quit but I will soldier on nonetheless.

Count my blessings, I may be a failure but hey at least I'm alive with a roof over my head and people willing to support me through this. I can't continue to leech off my mum forever so I'm writing again, stuff I can sell to the newspaper and a magazine. The original drafts and outlines are all gone but this is a good incentive to write the actual articles proper since those drafts and outlines were untouched for many months.

I'm really afraid that I will fall by the wayside again, what can I do to break the cycle? The strict schedule thing doesn't feel enough. I'm afraid that I will continue to fail over and over again.
