Sorry for the Summer Disappearance
a year ago
I don't hide I have a lot of personal mental baggage, most of which revolves around chronic, lifelong depression. It is a disorder I have learned to manage, and fairly decently, though various methods and this keeps the irrational depressive feelings and tendencies well under control... For the most part.
Once in a while though, it does overwhelm, this has been considerably less frequent than previous decades, even if the 2020s has devastated me physically health wise. That is what happened this summer, no details are needed because its both private and boring, I will say there was no specific trigger, just a series of small events that sucked the wind out of my mental sails. Back though, so what that is worth, mainly because I am too damned stubborn to give up, also art is something I really honestly enjoy.
First series of pics I will post are all commissions, because despite it all, they are all finished, and actually some time ago, fortunately about everyone got theirs back then through personal channels, but I want to show them publicly as well.
Anyway, hope you are all doing decent, and I am still always here, maybe sometimes down, but never out.

As someone who likewise struggles with depression, this is an admirable sentiment and one I try to embody myself. You should feel proud that you're persevering.
Kidding.. kidding! Ow ow, not the face! Seriously.. hope you're doing much better now! Be well!
I always have nothing but kind things to say about you, too! 😁
Glad to see you and your stuff again dude
