I'm coming back. Let's talk where I've been.

Yep,
I know that I've been gone for a long while now. I shouldn't have left in the aggressively sudden manner I did, but let's explain where we've been in the past few years.
First off, it's been evident that my drive to draw had taken a violent nosedive for years. We're patching it back [emotionally] to when I was living with some roommates, and had to work more or less for THEM, instead of myself and my rent. It led to attempts to create a more comfortable work schedule and environment for myself to prevent burn-out and not give myself a negative look on my own work. After a while, they began trying to crunch any money I had out of me for their rent (tl;dr husband wouldn't let his wife work and ngl not many jobs hire Felons so it became their own little toxic box of fuckery) and their alcohol bullshit.
I had already broken up with someone who was a narcissistic alcoholic, so that added to my trying to 'heal', wasn't really allowing me to move forward.
It caused me to start to drink. bad.
I finally got taken out of there by my [now] Husband, and thankfully I have found Family, love, and independence again.
Until we got COVID.
The household recovered just fine. Except for me. I was vaccinated, boosted, etc. It wrecked my nervous system to the point to now I'm seeing my doctors at least like 3 times a month. We discovered that it destroyed a fair bit of neurological cells, has led to tingling, numbness and severe cognitive confusion, Myoclonic Seizures, and now we are dealing with Copper Toxicity that was thankfully not Wilson's Disease- a condition to where your liver has a hard time excreting excess liver, leading to possible free floating Copper, which can damage other organs- We're already seeing damage, and we're trying to find someone who takes insurance around here to give me a Liver Biopsy.
We're trying to get it done through the Hospital, but no word so far.
We're trying to get me on Disability- since I'm on medical leave from work, and we're suspecting it may be Long-Term.
Then the reason as to why I bombed my account; WolfHome. Or-- more specifically their little Town Hall discord.
I was witch hunted and harassed into some Purist horseshit involving Feral NSFW- which I drew quite some years back. A user had found that I had previously drawn F-NSFW and even had it in my favourites list. Instant red alarms, and a petition was trying to move forward to remove me and other like-minded users from the server- as we were suddenly painted as PEDO ZOOPHILES. ... Like how does that work. Big Boss had to step in and tell everyone that I (along with the others) were obviously not breaking any server rules, as this is fucking FURAFFINITY.
A witch hunt on a furry art site KNOWN for their NSFW genres.. looking specifically for Feral NSFW. Shows exactly who these people are lmfao. It's sad people have to resort to negativity and violent bullying instead of either putting them on an Ignore list, blacklisting certain genres and terms so that you do not come across them, and just leaving people alone if they are not personally @'ing YOU.
Long story short, I got shamed into bombing my whole galleries (yes, on DeviantART, too) and mentally just gave up on art and nearly life. I lost so many people I thought were my friends and family. It was fucking hard. I don't think I had been so stressed out in so long.
I'm trying to get back into the art world. I'm trying to think of ways to open up commission work again without harming my self-healing. Maybe custom adopts. Who knows.
I'm coming back with a violence towards the demons holding me back from what I KNOW is my life's passion and dream. I AM going to become a professional illustrator. I AM going to regain my drive.
I AM coming back. And nobody can bully me into anything any longer.
Welcome back, my little Nuggets
