Hey there. It's been a while, huh?

So, I know a lot of you are waiting for art from me--which, I promise, I haven't forgotten. I just wanted to talk a little about where I've been, why I've been so inactive.

I have a lot of problems, the most major of which is moderate to severe depression. On top of that I've several forms of attention deficit disorders, including but not limited to impulsiveness, inattention, memory loss, auditory process disorders, and executive dysfunction. I've recently started going to a therapist to finally get some help. It's a work in progress.

Some of you may also know that I have better success when I'm able to stream my artwork because it forces me to focus for longer amounts of time instead of leaving me to my own devices. My internet hasn't been good enough to do this, which has severely limited my progress.

All these factors have sent me spiraling into feelings of depression and worthlessness. I've pulled away from friends and isolated myself. I've felt like a garbage person for every day that goes by and artwork I owe people isn't done.

So, what am I going to do about it?

I have someone coming to install cables to make my internet actually work this Thursday morning. Step one to beginning the climb to finishing what I need to do via streaming artwork more regularly. The rest is going to be helped with therapy and medications that may vary in results, but will hopefully give me the energy and focus I need to get things done. I'm going to be methodically getting through my commission queue, probably focusing on getting the smaller ones done and out of the way first to get them crossed off my list before getting the rest sketched up and approved by the people who have been kindly and patiently waiting.

I thank you all for listening, and for being gentle with me. I am very grateful for this community and the positivity surrounding it, and the kind words and encouragement I've gotten from friends. Thank you.
