Goodbye
13 years ago
It's a long explanation as to why I must say farwell to this fandom. Two weeks ago I had seen my school counselor due to an issue I had been dealing with for the past 5 yearsprior to my recent change: hearing voices in my head. I told her about the fact the my "imaginary friends" were dying and that I needed help. Unfortunately, the help I would be seeking would mean the end to my so called "friends." It has been a rather depressing departure for them but I know now that the creativities held captive in my mind were not meant for me to live in. Be that as it may, the world I was creating was meant to collide with reality. A chance for the creatures and landscapes locked within the inner crevasse of my mental structure to live in the real world that surrounds me. But alas, I am too young and inexperienced to create such wonders. This fandom has done a lot of damage to my mind. However, I have been given a mindset which beholds high strength in the creation of a vast canvas in which my imagination roams the wild and colorful plains of realities challanges. I've had my fun imagining the adventure for the characters of this fandom. But now, I must leave. I'll be back in maybe 7 or 8 years when I've settled the score with my mental inequities. This so called "paranoid schizophrenia" as diagnosed by my psychiatrist will be dealt with in the near future. As I type the words to this philosophical segment, I am dealing with my demons as we speak. My medications thawrt the efforts of my illness' goal. I am being helped by the resources I thoguht would destroy my world. Looking back, I realized that whom I thought of as my arch nemisis is now my greatest friend. Reality.
Goodbye furry fandom, it has been fun. But now I must return to the reality from wence I came to survive in the real world.

Courage and take care of yourself. Happy new year
while furry may not BE the real world, it certainly exists IN it. so i'm personally a bit skeptical about "help" that would advise anyone to leave it. but if doing so actually helps then that much is all to the good.
remember, there is no such thing as normality though, only the clear headedness to avoid stumbling over our emotional shoe laces.
if this is some kind of religious thing, those AREN'T the "real" world either.
