Welcome to my FA page! I've gone by a long list of names in the past (SA-X, Walkerfire, Sammonaran (Sammo), Raiok, Ashanriu, Wasdramer) but I am sticking to Zyraph now.i might not be on here much, but I am becoming more active on Telegram and Discord, so I do exist! More correctly, "we" exist, for the reason I've changed so many times for my profile is because there is more than one voice in my head. Scientifically you can equate it to DID, or spiritually you can, equate it to Otherkin. Either way suffices. We are he/they/plural. There is usually only one aspect out for socializing, so we still default to "I" to make it simpler for everyone.
I apologize in advance for disappearing, if you're someone I used to talk to. I have had a lot of trauma I've had to work through, and I'm still trying to heal from it. I was going through a lot while in college, and I am not trying to excuse my behavior, but I do wish for understanding. I care about everyone I met during that time, even if things ended on a bad note. If you want to reconnect, please reach out, I want to try to heal things. I know it won't be the same, but I want to make an effort.
I work for Walmart, and while it's not the best job, I at least have good management that treats me well. I even can show off a little bit of myself through my water bottle, so I can at least have a conversation starter for other furries (yes, I've met others that work there)!
I tend to be off in my own little world most of the time anymore. Usually doing some weird tech project or maybe hanging out with a friend or two. Usually just doing whatever on my own though.
I am married, but we are separated. We used to get along pretty well, but we both decided to mutually end things. Long story short, they are going through a journey to become who they were always meant to be. Our relationship was one where we couldn't see being apart, but it was born of toxic coping and we both realized that and have decided to be apart. It's healthier for the both of us.
If you wanted to talk to me (either as a new friend, or otherwise), my Telegram and Discord are the easiest ways to get in touch with me. I will try to check back on here every so often, but I am definitely more active on those platforms.
I have something else linked as well, which will be a place I have complete control over, so I can keep everyone updated with all my social accounts. I'll link it here as well: https://zyraph.drag.li
That site will always list every social account I use, and I'll be posting past sites on there as well.

QUOTES
"You have to be alive in order to know what the future will bring. Only those truly willing to endure hell will see the future." --Me, 2012
"Being alive means being true to yourself, even if it means enduring hell to see your future. If you feel like shit but smiling, it's good." --Me, 2017
"Enduring hell to see the future isn't always the best plan. One must also seek ways to see the future so they no longer have to endure hell." --Me, 2020
"One's hell is another's paradise. Not everyone can agree on what is painful, but to endure the future, you must be able to see what one's own hell may be. Empathize, but don't lose yourself in it. Otherwise, you'll turn into 'us' instead of 'me.'" --Us, 2023

I did this wrong
2 years ago
I did this wrong. Looking back, finally seeing what all I have done, back during such a very stressful time in my life, I realize I approached this whole situation wrong. I isolated myself because I was afraid of the pain. I discarded this account because I was afraid of conflict and of trying to sort out so much of what others were going through. I wasn't being an attention whore. I was being an idiot, but not really to get attention.
I took on the issues of others as a way to ignore my own problems. I took on mediation between others because I couldn't find solace within my own thoughts. I opened myself up so much that I was in physical pain from caring too much about how others felt and reacted to me, and to other friends. Whether or not how I handled this correctly is, actually, not even the point. It's already done. I left this account because I was reacting in pain and fear, and I let it determine the outcome, instead of rising above it. It was a mistake, and to everyone that I basically abandoned over the years, I apologize.
I don't think there's any way I can make it up to anyone, it's been way too long. However, if anyone wants to give me a second chance, or possibly third, or... I don't know, for a few of you it might be a much higher number...anyway, if you would give me that privilege, I will cherish it deeply and do my best not to lose it again. I was a royal idiot back then, so I can understand if I burned that bridge to a crisp after so long. But I made a promise to a few friends that I can't even have that kind of opportunity with again, and they're permanently gone. I will keep bridges open on my side. No matter what happened back then, no matter who did what, I don't care about that anymore. Life is too short to worry about that kind of thing. The past is the past. I want to see the future with my friends. All of them. Even if we parted on really bad terms, I don't care about that. I will always keep it open on my side. I'll spread this message as far and wide as I can.
All other deprecated accounts will show this, and I'll link my current social profiles here and wherever I have access. If you truly want contact, I will do my best to keep it with you. It may not be daily, and it may not even be weekly. But I will keep contact the best that I can.
I'm not perfect. I'm not going to try to be perfect, like I did before. That is what truly broke me. I have DID from quite a bit of this, so hopefully that can explain some of the more questionable things that I did, back then. I'm learning, and trying to heal, from when I went through college. It did a lot of harm, trying to shoulder so many things and ignoring my own issues to try to take care of others. However, I don't regret the friends I made back then. I don't even regret the people that I had fallen out with, and those interactions, because I know I was messed up at the time. Perspective can do a lot of things.
Anyway, I'll leave it at this. Even if I don't talk to another person from that time, I do hope you are doing well. I still care, even after all of this time, and I haven't forgotten the good that I saw in any person during that time. Please take care, and if I never get a chance to interact with you again, I want you to have a good life. Nobody deserves pain and misery. We are all troubled and burdened in this life, and I believe those that I encountered all had some kindness within the at some point. I only hope that kindness has flourished, despite my absence.

You have to be alive in order to know what the future will bring. Only those truly willing to endure hell will see the future.
