TL:DR
-Medical situation is getting better(for now)
Found deficiencies I'm working on + stopped on Anti-depressants.
- It's getting easier with the help from you
- State is still difficult with helping me.
- Might not be able to work the amount i want to, as fast as i want to, including commissions.
So since I want to be transparent with people and my supporters I'm gonna write a little update on my health situation and what that might mean for the future with my art etc.
And I can't lie that i also make this for myself to reduce stress in the term of self projected expectations from you guys x)
But first I want to thank you all for the additional support since my little plead some time ago. I had actually not realized before recently that it was close to 500 a month and even if that's not enough to break 0 it still helps a TON to offset my costs, which I'm incredibly grateful for<3
The ART side of things:
Since its to soon to conclude anything medically and that my health have been swinging a bit lately .
I've decided to take the time I need to get well, and not put to much pressure on myself with commissions and making things specifically for patreon. I will make more when and what I feel like, and ofc patreon will get it's exclusive benefits like normal.
Ik its not what u want to hear, but feeling that i need or should do something, when i don't have the energy to, fatigued, or sour brained just makes matters worse.(Ik u guys have told me this a long time, but its hard for me to accept xD) And im hoping to heal this so im in the future able to have this as a fulltime job to create more and with better quality.
Since I know i can do better, not necessarily create more, but better quality, but the lack of energy, self made stresses etc. makes it hard. So im trying to heal from that as best as possible!
I always would love to hear your thoughts about my art, send inspiration or suggestions my way tho, in fact i want more of it, but I just want to make it clear that I can't promise much.
Medical side:
Stopped on AD on the 22th Dec, the first week after it was really really bad, but now i feel more balanced out, just some struggle with sleep.
Found deficiencies in D and Folic-acids, which is likely to be the contributor to extreme fatigue, and the side effects of anemia which a lack of these can cause, lines up with my problems. Feeling sore, tired and fatigued, cold hurts etc.
So I'm now supplementing for those, and the last week have felt way better(its also been warmer so its hard to tell what the exact effect is).
Doctor said yesterday that its still to early to say what's what, and he wants to wait 3 months on supplements to make any conclusion, which i agree to, especially since I just stopped on AD, and I know from past experience that my health can fluctuate a lot.
Why am i sharing this side?
Again, I want to be transparent, I want to try to answer any questions that people might have about my problems, I share my experience so that u know where I am.
The state/social support is still a bit difficult on giving me any support since I don't have any conclusive written documents from the doctor about my situation, which puts me in a odd pinch, but hopefully things might change since he sent them an update on the situation yesterday.
This might've been an abrupt ending, but my brain just suddenly stopped, and I think I got to say mostly of what I wanted to say
