I Quit...(for now)
a week ago
Hey everyone,
I need to be honest and put this into words, even if it’s messy. I’m taking a big step away from the furry fandom and from Twitch streaming.
The truth is, I’m burnt out. I don’t feel like myself anymore. Things that used to excite me and give me purpose now just feel heavy, and I’m left feeling drained and depressed instead of fulfilled. On top of that, I’ve been carrying around resentment and negativity that I know I need to let go of, but it’s been eating at me for too long.
I can’t keep pretending everything is fine when it’s not. I don’t want to keep forcing myself to be “on” for others while I’m falling apart on the inside. I need to step back and focus on straightening out my life and my mind before I can show up authentically again.
This isn’t easy to say, because I do care about the friendships and memories I’ve made here. Those moments mean a lot to me. But right now, I need to stop pushing myself to perform or belong when I barely feel stable. I have to admit that I’m not okay, and I need space to figure things out.
I don’t know how long this break will last. Maybe I’ll come back when I feel stronger, maybe I’ll find a new path forward entirely. What I do know is that I can’t keep going the way I have been. This step away is necessary—for my health, my mind, and my peace.
I hope you guys respect my decision as my contact will be shut off as well as I do not wish to speak to anyone during this time.

Take as much time as you need and hang in there.
