I should say something about october, me & my emotional health. Not sure most of you still expect to see either illustrations or opinions on my behalf anymore as I mostly have just RT & interacted very little for quite a while...
but the truth is I have been struggling with who I am, how I have a hard time managing & dealing with my emotions, how that has led me to question why I do what I do, why I tend to stick with intrusive thoughts and ultimately why I put so little work out here or anywhere.
I have been depressed and struggling with the idea of my non existent output. My crippling fear of failure & how it feeds a vicious circle of self loath-doubt & constant craving for validation from others as I don’t truly validate myself for anything I do or think.
I am in therapy and tho it has not been for that long, it has been useful to further understand & accept myself. But along this whole struggle, my art output has basically dried up & I honestly don’t know if that will change soon, significantly or at all.
I thank all of you for being here, either just as a follower or as a friend. I truly appreciate you. But lately I am questioning how I invest my time in social media and if that time is being beneficial or detrimental to my process & mental health.
And well, while isolating myself is not the answer or the best choice, I do not think that staying here is helping me either.
I have debated this decision personally & with those still close to me for a while, but I think it is time.

I am going to step away from all my social media.

I am not sure when I will come back. Isolation is not an answer either, but right now I think its best to step back.
I am not really sure when I will come back. I am not closing this profile. I’ll still have my inbox open but won’t really be active otherwise. Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this thread & any kind words you might have. I truly appreciate them, and you of course.
