This is a cry for help

I'm a bit tired of SGA fic at the moment, so I'm saving it instead of wasting it. Adding this to the stories I missed when I studied for my Abitur I get a whole lot of stuff to go through.
I read some Due South and a bit of Harry Potter. Oh, and House. Actually, I'm not sure if it works for me. Quality aside, I feel like I won't be able to get the same enjoyment that I get from watching the show from reading.
Anyway. The reason for this post: Save me! Save me, please! I'm suffering through a horrible McKay/Sheppard story and I can't stop. It features one of those crying, nay, sobbing, fainting, trembling McKay lookalikes whose self-confidence (the existence of which can be debated) hangs in tatters around them and can only be mended by some gentle Sheppard loving. And by loving I mean love, of course, love like he's never known before! And I still can't stop. Wah!

Seriously, even the one time I tried to sit down and write fic (never to be repeated) wasn't as bad. I may be shite at narrative, plotting and character voice but at least I know when the characters are OOC.
Although that may be the key - a total lack of concern for accurate character representation and a drive for ... well whatever the hell romantic, hurt/comfort thing they want to right. Eeeehhsssh.
