NOTICE my health and going forward with this page.
Added 2025-05-04 04:48:15 +0000 UTCHi, said in my previous post I've been dealing with depression. Its still here. I've been able to do about 2 days of work out of the last week, and well, I don't think it's fair that people are supporting me and I've not able to work at my normal cadence. I can't say when this period is going to end, I've had a few time where I think I'm getting out of it, but then half a day/a day later I'm right back where I started.
I could put patreon on hold but the last time I did several supporters wished I just kept the page up and got back into work when I could, it also prevents anyone from signing up to view previous animations. So I'm going to keep the page up and leave it up to you the subscriber to choose what you want to do. I'll be glad for anyone that continues to support but I understand completely if you wish to stop. I'm not able to do work consistently right now.
I enjoy working on animation, on days when I can I'll be working on it, most of the time right now I just can't. Going to ride this out till I get into a good spot and it sticks.
For anyone that's not dealt with depression, good for you, seriously, it sucks. A crude analogy for what I'm going through: think about trying to do anything when you have a bad headache, you can do the bare minimum, can still get some tasks done but you are miserable when you are doing so, avoiding anything you may enjoy because you know the activity will be spoiled. It's like that, without the ability to take a painkiller.
So yeah, I'm still holding on, still going to be doing work when I can, just wish I could say I know when I'm going back to something approaching normal.

I deal with weapons grade clinical depression myself, getting medical help and better living through chemistry is nothing to be ashamed of.

You are going to be ok :) I have been where you are and will again down the road, but that is ok, life is al all about how you tackle those days. I know you got a good head on your shoulders and will work your way through this :)
