It's Been a While -- I'm Sorry
6 years ago
It has been over a year since I have posted here on FA and for that I wanted to say that I am sorry.
I know that I'm not an artist or anything like that, but I do love following the artists that i do and I love the friends that I've met here on FA.
The last year has been full of stress, family issues, mental and physical health issues, but most importantly GROWTH.
The last big update journal I had written was talking about how our old roommate was kicking us our and then was followed by a big thank you to the people who helped spread the word of our misfortune and helped us out. We got into an apartment, albeit it wasn't great, but it was a roof over our heads!
The first few months after moving in were tough, we had only one car, I was only able to work part time, we had to give up our dog and we couldn't afford internet. For the last year I feel like I've been sitting in the dark away from all of the things that I loved the most. I started feeling really out of touch with the things that I loved the most, roleplaying, gaming, the furry community. There wasn't really anything to keep me connecting to all of my favorite hobbies and the wonderful people I've met online.
Since 2017 I've been struggling with my mental health and being without the things I used to love so much made it even harder. My bipolar and anxiety were really running me into the ground. I'm very lucky to have the support system that I have because I am certain that without them I would not have made it through the last year alive.
Now things are so different. I'm in an awesome apartment with my wonderful fiance and one of my closest friends, I've become a store manager at a sex shop out here in DFW, we now have two cats who keep me plenty of company whenever I am home alone and I could not wish for more. I am so happy right now.
Coming back to FA has been pretty big for me. I've lurked around the last week or so to see if anyone I knew before is still around (which sadly it seems that not a lot of them are, even worse it seems that my shitty brain has forgotten some people too. it makes me feel p bad. i am so sorry if i have forgotten you!!!!!!)
I just wanted to post an update to let everyone know that I am still alive and well and planning on coming back to the community at full force!!!
I do however think, I am gonna make a new account for my new fursona and probably retire this old main account of mine. There's a lot of things that have changed since I've been online last, a lot of friends who are no longer part of the community. I just think it's time for a fresh start!
If you've read this far, thank you! It means a lot! You are all so wonderful, thank you again for reading.
Stay safe, I love you guys, catch you on the flipside!!
