Hi bunnies,

I’m really sorry for being absent these past two months. I’ve been struggling with severe PTSD episodes and unresolved trauma from past events in my childhood. I don’t feel comfortable going into details, but it’s something that has been affecting my life deeply.

For the past 2–3 years, vivid memories have been hitting me like a truck, bringing constant nightmares, dissociation, and even physical symptoms like pain and frequent illness. Functioning has felt nearly impossible these last months. I always knew what it was but avoided a diagnosis because I didn’t want to accept it. I kept telling myself it couldn’t be that, that I didn’t want to be like this. But two months ago, I hit my lowest point and finally had to see a doctor.

I truly wish I were stronger and less affected by all of this so I could separate my personal feelings from my ability to make art, but I’m doing my best to face it now. I was able recently to draw a little, I will keep pushing until I feel more comfortable. It really made me happy to be able to draw again after a long while. I’m really sorry for my absence, and I appreciate your patience and understanding. Thank you for sticking around.

Lady Shin ♥️
