Hello there. Long time no see.
I don't really know where to start. Someone suggested to me yesterday that I should start with a shit-post and I thought that was a good idea.
I've been able to handle things "in real life" pretty dang well for a while now. I no longer suffer from social anxiety, or so I thought. The anxiety has merely flip-flopped from being anxious in person and free to be myself online to being anxious online and (mostly) free to be myself in person.
And when something makes me anxious, my life strategy has been to avoid it at all costs. It's not a good way to deal with problems.
I don't know why talking online fills me with dread. Even the idea of chatting with life-long friends sounds -exhausting- and I have to put a real effort into making that happen.
Anyway
Sorry for the weird rambling.
I've been working on it.
If people don't hate me for the sporadic disappearances on this account, I'll get some stuff posted over the next week.
Thanks for looking and sticking around. I appreciate it more than you know.

All the best things start with a shitpost! Social anxiety's the worst, glad that you've managed to get a handle on things IRL; strange it flipped to online but brains are weird and expecting them to make sense is quite the ask. Looking forward to seeing some more of your work, I hope you'll be feeling more comfortable as you get back into the swing of things!
Thanks so much Asalvus! Sorry that I haven't gotten back to your last note- my brain's still trying to figure out a few things. I'm somewhat getting into a routine when it comes to checking -and more importantly, replying- to messages. Getting started is always the hard part, though.
Hope you're doing well and thank you so much for all of the encouragement over the years. <3

No worries on that, I know that text-wall messages can really sap the motivation out of replying, my bad there... Gotta learn brevity one of these days! Things are going well, starting up autumn quarter and my class seems to be going smoothly. Fingers crossed I'll actually graduate this year maybe!
And you're welcome, I'm just happy to be here!
