Not sure where to go here?

Not sure what this is or where it goes but it is another thing about my special interests and my awful confidence both helping to make me miserable!
I ended my last long term interest myself. It was getting very faint and the amount of breaks I'd had from it throughout the year made me really scared for it. Unfortunately it is still coming back into my head every now and again and it makes me have a moment of panic before I come to my senses. I don't know if their is something I can do to make it easier?

Then I've moved back to an interest I've had before when I was eight or nine (Susan from Narnia) and it is pretty embarrassing, in fact I'm going as her to a fancy dress party, thing is I know that this, being an interest I've came back to, means that I'll only have it for so long and it's never been very, very strong. I've spent two weeks gathering and making my costume. Ive started to write a story so far it's twenty five/six pages long but I write and draw constantly and I really need to see if I can make this last longer so is there any way I could train my thoughts to think about other things related to the interest. I would hate it to leave me now before it gets stollen away by a stronger interest would be diificult.

This is why I keep a diary or two. I like to look back on my interests and remember them.

Some of them though have remained my entire life (like my interest in a certain blue hedgehog, and my football team, and trains...), others have come and go. I like to mix them up a bit.

But I always try and honour the memories of the ones that pass.

Honest to gosh, I think it's like zen. You kind of 'dance' an interest and see if it's going to happen.

It's OK to be interested in more than one thing at a time.
