Looking back I've been noticing that I'm really not as talkative or social as I used to be lately, so I'm just going to put this on blast real quick just so everyone knows. If you reach out to talk to me and I'm not really responsive, it's probably like 98% on me at least. >

My social batteries have been basically constantly empty since the season change and honestly, odds are it'll probably get worse. I don't keep it a secret that I suffer from seasonal affective disorder, and with everything else going on, side effects from it are more extreme. >

Because of that, I'm very likely to just be minimally responsive if at all. I feel like I'm waking a tightrope trying to maintain any sort of functionality while also fighting the side effects of depression, so I only have so much spare faculties to spend freely on a given day. >

I will try to be as social as I can, but that's the best I can offer. So again, if I seem disinterested or dismissive or vacant or anything like that, know that you likely didn't do anything to provoke that and that I'm just not in a great spot these days.

Also I'm going to pin this thread for the time being just so it's front and center.
