🕑 Added 2020-03-14 02:02:37 +0000 UTCI would like to share a bit about myself, but I am afraid the post would get rather long if I did. So I am going to try to sum it up as succinctly as I can.
I have been dealing with depression for some time now. Last year after I broke my finger, it was particularly bad. I'm slowly trying to work on getting better at self-care.
Also for a while now, I have been sacrificing what I wanted to work on and instead focusing on what I thought might earn me more fans. In retrospect, not prioritizing myself wont lead to the result I want anyway. Plus, since that last for so long, I ended up falling into depression.
I have thought a lot about what I need to do to pull myself out of depression. I basically decided to put myself first and take better care of myself. I'm also ADHD, and sometimes our actions can be somewhat self-serving.
Ordinarily I would write what I think fans would like to see from me. But the more I do that, it becomes a vicious cycle.
From now on, I would like to try to put myself first when doing work.
Recently, I started creating videos. This is part of my self-care in treting depression. I don't just take videos of me playing video games, I actually draw and insert my art as well. I'd like to continue doing this and make more art for videos from now on.
I'm definitely not completely obsessed with videos at the expense of my art, however. These videos are just a way for me to make use of art in a way that I couldn't have before.
This month I will be drawing 7 more characters for use in the PSO2 video. I will also, of course, be posting the continuation of the Edelgard CG city. We also plan to have another part for our original story read to go out to you guys by the end of the month.
At any rate, I was a bit too focused on drawing porn up until now. I had a really bad habit of spending a week or more on a single piece of art. Currently, I have worked on that and gotten better and am slowly working my way out of depression.
There may be less porn than there was before, but I will be drawing and posting more art than I did before as well!

Thanks for sharing about your struggles with depression as well. Part of the reason I have talked about it is because I want to try to overcome it. I have people around me supporting me, but that's all they can do. I have to be the one to conquer this, and to do that, I have to stand up on my own two feet. I feel like every little step, no matter how small, is really important. I want to be more honest with myself, and I feel like going back to the things I enjoy is one step to that process. Thanks to you and everyone else, I feel like things are slowly getting better.
Thank you for your kind message! I feel better mentally than when I posted this article. Your comments are a major contribution to my recovery!! ;D
I struggle with depression as well. If you need to take a break for a day, don't beat yourself up over it. It's not your fault that you have low days. I hope this change to your works helps you beat your depression.
Look after yourself man, hope you find somethig or someone to help you get through. We'll be waiting for you
