I’m not okay.
5 years ago
I’m tiered. Tiered of so many things. Tiered of things going wrong. I’m not okay. I haven’t been okay for a while. I’m usually an optimist. I try to always look for the bright side of things, but I can’t even muster up the energy for that.
Things have not gone well for a few years now and this pandemic situation just feels like the nail in the coffin.
I’m sorry I’ve been so silent here, but there’s just been so much going on in life. We got sick. Really sick. back in March, 3 of us got so sick we were out of commission for weeks. The baby almost had to go to be in the hospital. It was scary. Unfortunately this was a time where people were still only getting tested if you met very specific criteria, so there’s no telling exactly what we had. We’re all okay (ish) now though, and that’s what really matters. Well hopefully keep being okay with any luck.
Anyway, this has all been so draining. I have no energy for art. My creativity well is dry. I can’t even bring myself to sit at the computer and open photoshop. I’ve sat staring at a blank piece of paper for I don’t know how long.
I’m sure I’ll be back. I just don’t know when.
I know I’ll get better. I just really don’t know when.

I can totally relate to the art block, and I honestly think it's understandable with all of the stress going on (regular stress is enough without a freaking pandemic going on). Just do what you have to do to keep you and yours healthy and give yourself some credit. The world is excited to see more art from you when you are ready, but it goes without saying that priorities are different now.
I know it's not much but I'm here for you, whatever I can do. If you need someone to talk to. Stay safe! <3
