Hello, all. I've been meaning to update everyone with what has been going on with me lately but haven't really been okay with saying anything until now.
2020 was a really doozy for everyone, but a few things have happened to me that, again, I haven't been comfortable talking about until now. My heath has been bad for years, since I haven't had the insurance to take care of myself and I finally was able to at the beginning of 2020. I have been since diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension (High Blood Pressure), Arthritis, and Chronic Migraines. I also had an accident and fell from a cliff with a 6-7ft drop and pretty much landed on my head, causing a concussion and I also fractured my toe and middle of my foot. I have healed from these, but it made my Migraines worse and more frequent and I have Arthritis where those fractures happened, making it painful to walk around for more than an hour or two at a time. I also contracted Covid around the same time, and thankfully didn't suffer too bad other than the sweats and a horrid cough.
During this time, my husband and I were supposed to process moving out of the US(he is in the US Army), but they kept changing dates and pushing us back and losing our paperwork. It was incredibly stressful and I was having constant meltdowns, making it hard for me to draw or do much of anything. Fast forward to January 2021, we were given a date saying we are ready to go, and therefore broke our Apartments lease - thinking we were going to move. They ended up pushing our date back another month and so for the whole month a January we were homeless and couch surfing at friends places. Again, stressed beyond belief and not really able to function.
February come and we FINALLY move. We are stationed in Wiesbaden, Germany and I am excited to explore Germany and Europe, but also worried we won't be able to see much because of the Virus and this is pretty much the only chance we are going to be in Europe so it's kinda a bummer. But besides that, my depression has taken a turn for the worse and I unfortunately have gotten so bad that I made a suicide attempt. Police were involved, and I have started some treatment. I have been diagnosed with Severe Depression, Anxiety and Borderline Personality Disorder, as well as a new diagnosis of PSTD and mild Insomnia.
Because of all these things I am trying my best to focus more on myself, especially with art. I hardly ever draw things for myself and I NEED to start doing that more often. That being said, I am still open for commissions and trades, but will be advertising them less// only when I have the time and energy to get them done quickly. I also want to completely clear my owed art queue, so IF I OWE YOU ART PLEASE PLEASEEEEEE DM ME, so I can get it completed as fast as possible. The move made me lose track of a lot of my info and so I'm planning on using Trello from now on to be more organized, and I take full responsibility for being unprofessional.
To end this on a better note, I have a discord server for my art , a place to hang out and chat with me, post your own art and connect with other artists! I would love if you join in and hang out with me! https://discord.gg/mXd7SCM
Also! If anyone has any knowledge of things to do in Germany, I would appreciate it! I also would love to connect with more artists/furries in the area, so feel free to drop a comment or a DM !
Thank you everyone for the support through all of this! I really do appreciate it! I'm not best with my words, so if anyone needs any clarification please drop a comment and I'll do my best to explain further!

I moved to Germany three years back and a whole year of that has been pandemic, plus you're quite far from me, so I'm no expert, but the zoos and animal parks around where I am are fantastic! The Harz is a wonderful, beautiful place to visit once you can travel that far. And local ice cream cafes are always the best, they have such a chill atmosphere.
Thank you for the info! I will look into that and see if there are any near me!
