I don't like talking about my mental status. I really don't. I don't want people to think I want attention. I am open book with everything but my emotions. For me to talk about it means its getting to be too much and I need people to be semi aware of my behavior. I am not asking for help or comfort. I am just requesting patience and understanding. This isn't something I wanted to open up about because of how personal it is. But I don't want people, especially those waiting on commissions to be in the dark. i don't want to continue with any kind of vague excuses why it might take me a while to get the energy to work on my list.

There was a death in my family about 2 weeks ago. The kind that shakes the worlds of anyone remotely connected to that person. I don't feel comfortable giving more details than that.

I have always struggled with expressing emotions. So I don't really know how to put them into words or understand them. So all I ask is for patience and understanding. It may, no, it will take me longer to get through these commissions. I haven't completely stopped drawing. I have been doing some things to pick up my spirits a bit. The trolls I've been doing for example. They make me happy, at least for a bit. So expect to see more of them...
