Hi, everyone!

The last journal I did (commissions one aside) is from Jan 1st, so I thought it would be nice to make a little update journal.

🎨 First, about my Art,

I'd like to apologize if my replies are taking longer than usual and if the management of my pages isn't the best right now. There are some stuff going on irl, and it has been kinda draining (I'll talk about it later on this journal). My priority is always to deliver the best of my work for my customers, so that's what I'm focusing all my energy in!

I'd also like to apologize that commissions openings are still pretty slow and limited, due to feeling kinda drained I don't feel confident on taking much atm because, again, I want to deliver the best drawings I can. Things will stay like this for a while I think and I may keep doing soft-breaks (working only on Patreon rewards) so I appreciate your understanding. I'm more active in twitter though, so plz consider following me there: https://twitter.com/mr_tiaa

On a side note, I got some merchandise done and hopefully I'll be able to open my little shop when things get better. Since I still have no idea of when I'll be able to open it I won't be showing pictures for now, but I hope you'll enjoy it when the time comes! Ah- also, what's your favorite size for art prints?

🐾Now, the personal update,

I'm not sure of how many of you know, but the situation in Brazil is currently pretty bad with the most aggressive variant of the Corona virus going wild and the collapse of the health system (both particular and public), added to the negligence of our President who isn't simply ignoring the danger of the virus, but also giving out medicines that doesn't work against it AND have been proved to have a lot of serious side effects, including hemorrhage and cirrhosis (which is overloading the health system even more).
Our current situation can be considered a "Crime against humanity" according to the international law, but it can't be helped because we are, in theory, a democratic country and there isn't anyone doing much against our president.
If you want to know more about it, you can read about it here: https://www.brasilwire.com/genocide/ and here: https://www.npr.org/2021/03/04/9736.....-health-threat

Fortunately, me and my beloved ones are safe from the virus, but the current situation affects everything and is pretty stressful in general.

As for my situation, in particular
I'm currently going through a change on my psychiatric meds, since the one I've been using for several years wasn't working anymore, my body still on adaptation phase. For the sake of clarify things, I have Avoidant Personality Disorder (AVPD), you can read about it here: https://www.verywellmind.com/avoida.....sorder-4172959 , anxiety (which may result in panic attacks) and depression, but these are very likely because of the AVPD.

Eating is a coping method for me, whenever I'm anxious I eat, it got worse during the pandemic and I've been gaining weight, recently reaching 59kg, which is unacceptable for me. Other little problem I have is Hypermobility Syndrome through all my body BUT my spine, you can read about it here: https://www.hypermobility.org/what-.....lity-syndromes but basically, my joints are weak and I need to stay light weighted or I'll have constant pains and could injure my joints.

So, I started controlling my food, which means I can't rely on it as a coping method anymore, what in addition to the current situation of my country + change of meds is making me a biiiit unstable, and drained.
I've been trying to distract and please myself with other stuff, like games, personal projects and drawings.

But yeah, summary, I'm taking care of my health first! And because of it my activity is currently slower than the usual. Still, I have high hopes that things will get better ASAP! And if I draw something personal I may post it as well, so I hope you will enjoy it if I do~

Thank you so much for everyone who keeps supporting and watching me through the good and the bad, seriously, it means the world to me!! I hope you all are safe and well ♡

- cheers, stay kawaii
