Is Todd better?
Posted 2 years agoThis is not a journal about my fursona.
This is a journal about me.
My feeling at this moment in time.
I know I haven't written a journal in 4 years, to be honest, I don't see the point in it, why would I write things down for people not read? But doing this feels like the only way I can get things off my chest without going through the process of talking to someone face to face which I have come to hate.
Growing up I have never had a problem with anxiety, I was always the kid who wasn't afraid of anything, I would go to places I wasn't supposed to, do things I wasn't supposed to and when I fucked up, I would learn from them, but not anymore
So I had a mutual break up with my ex just before Christmas last year, it wasn't anything bad as in we had common ground in both of us thinking that it would be better if we broke up, I'm not questioning any decisions that happened to be honest again, I'm glad we did, I don't resent anybody.
But these last few days, I've felt so...well to put it in simple terms..........lonely and scared, I don't know what to do, my mind is completely all over the place, I can't concentrate, I don't feel......me.
I'm anxious about everything, and I mean everything. I had an episode yesterday where I was scared to even drive my car.
I'm a professional driver by trade and I was scared to even get in, I don't know what's happening, why has this come to me now?
I think maybe after 7 months, the break up is finally getting to me? I don't know, I mean our relationship was 8 years long, I would of been married if it hadn't of been for covid, and what would of happened if it did, I don't know, again I'm scared, I'm scared of every uncertainty. Does this happen when someone has anxiety?
I have also had a lot of problems with confidence, even as a kid, my self esteem is always low, and my self doubt is always sky high, plus if I do something let's say for example I'm taking a driving test, If I do one tiny little thing wrong, that's it I'm thinking about it for the rest of the day, why can't I let it go? And if I make a big mistake then that's it I freeze and then the tears start to flow, I don't know why I do this, it's something that I've done my whole life, I can't help it, do I just want to be perfect all the time? I know it's impossible, where does it come from? These things bring me down even more, and when I start crying, it's the most embarrassing thing ever. Easily stressed?, yeah I am. I'm 27 I don't want to feel like this.

Whats happening
Posted 7 years agoIts been a while since my last journal, im not very good at writing or saying things that is worth putting down on paper (theoretically speaking)
Well here goes
I have found myself growing apart from this fandom, dont take it the wrong way, I still love this fandom and the idea of this fandom its just that it was a way for me personally to make new friends and be a part of something along with that sense of belonging, But now im growing away from it, since I moved out of my parents home and into my own I feel as though furry has taken a step back, don't get me wrong I am so thankful for what this fandom has done for me over the years but now I need to open a new chapter of my life.
This takes me to my next discussion which is my job.
I work for a local council doing grounds, which for me was a really good for my first real job, it got my foot in the door and was well paid, but the is no career out of it, I go to work to do a job and go home again, the is no progression at all, so ive had a think and now I have applied to join the British Army.
It was a very hard choice but ive made up my mind to join the royal logistics corps as a driver or something like it. The reason is because my family has a history for being in the armed forces, my grandad was in the navy, my great grandfather a part of operation market garden during ww2 and I feel like I would like to carry on my family's tradition. But It will change me, I know this and it scares me, but sometimes you have to cast off the child and become a man. No more sitting around on my ass smoking weed all day, doing nothing, achieving nothing and wasting my life. Bit I didnt want to leave you guys in the dark, my mind is made up and im going for it one way or another. Even if it means becoming an infantry soldier, I am getting in the army.
Well there you have it, thats what I have been planning for the last couple of months. The long road to a better life has started and its exciting bit also very scary.
Thanks for everything furry fandom you have been a blast and I dont want to think of the person I would of become without you.

One Year Today
Posted 12 years agowell exacly one year ago i found the furry fandom and i have loved every second of it. 2012 has been a tough year for me, going throgh exams at high school, worring about if i got into college, finding a job (which didn't happen), being under the weather a couple of times, being in a finacal crisis and many other things, but i always had the fandom which kept me going. i want to thank everyone for just being great and for being there -wolfie hugs-. my favoite memory of the fandom was finding out that Norwich had a furmeet,i was compleatly overjoyed as if a whole new door had opened and now that door has cloesd behind me and will not open again because im never leaving this fandom, so i spose you all have to put up with me now :) Love you all :) and thank you
This year
Posted 12 years agoWell where to start, my one year in the fandom will happen on the 17th january, it's been a crazy year going through leaving high school, my GCSEs, my first furmeet, getting my character sorted out and meeting a load of new friends who have made this year my faviote so far and I just want to thank all of you for being so great in making 2012 a year to remember. Well this year will be remembered as the year that changed my life, being in the fandom has changed me as a person and I really dont know where.I would be without it. But my biggest thank you is to my friend Al Darkwolf for being their.when the road got rough. But a big thank you to everyone -hugs-
Tods Weird experiance
Posted 13 years agoComing home from Collage after a very long day of paper work and assessments Tod went straight up to his room to lie down and play on his Xbox after about 20 minites there was a loud bang on his window. Tod got up and inspected his window there was nothing so thinking nothing of it he went back down to playing minecraft. About 5 minites later there was another bang on the window this time on the window oppersite side got up again a little worryed now, there was nothing again so feeling slightly scared he went back to playing minecraft. Then after about 20 minites Tod was downstairs making himself a lovely cheese and ham toastie when he heard a much bigger bang on the kichen window which made him jump out of his skin, Tod went outside to inspect the outside of the window and there was a pigeon lieing on the grass, after about 5 seconds it got up and flew away. So utterly amazed that a pigeon could be so stupid Tod went around the house to look at the other windows that have been hit and sure enough there was a blue tit on one side that was unharmed but just knocked out and a starling on ther other that was exactly the same so that was very strange and weird but was quite funny.

Tod Gingerwolf, The life of an ethiopian wolf
Posted 13 years agoTod was born in Adis Ababa where life was tough from the start, food was scarce and crime was high (a crime happens every night in Adis Ababa). Tod had 3 sisters and 2 brothers who where both stronger than him and often pulled pranks on him just to ensure their dominance. His sisters just ignored him like he was a piece of dirt and hardly ever talked to him, his mother was the understanding type and always looked out him if his sibling ever picked on him. His father was the one who worked in the factorys, making items of clothing for the shops of better country's making very little money to support the family, his mother would try so hard to make a better life for them but that would end in his sixth year in Adis Ababa.
Tod was out looking for scraps of food to feed the family because his father had not returned the night before from work and his mother was worried. Tod was returning to his home when he heard gunfire in the distance, it got closer and closer until a pickup truck came into view carrying 7 armed gunmen shooting into the air like they had just won something, but they had smiles on their faces and a body bags in the back, Tod couldn't see what was in them only that they were moving. He returned home to find blood up the walls, blood on the floor and his family...gone.
10 years have passed since that night and Tod is now living in England neglected by the English society because of his one red eye, they think he is in leage with the devil. Tod has also made friends who treat him like one of their own and he loves them for what they have done for him, the only thing that is naging at the back of his mind is what ever happened to his father.
A year later and Tod is feeling a lot happier about his home now because he has found Freinds who look out for him and he looks out for them
Thanks for reading
Take care
