Well well well, what a twist! My 500th time returning after leaving forever!! Ok but no for real this time, much has changed since the start of this year when I decided to leave FNaF.
For all of my life I had been dealing with a combination of mental health problems that reached a peak which couldn't be ignored anymore. Inability to focus and retain information well, inability to do basic tasks, poor reading skills, extreme anxiety (which felt like constant fear at all times no matter what I was doing), a bit of depression, terrible sleep, terrible physical health, extreme procrastination, brain fog, and much more. These problems might seem familiar to some of you as many creators and people on the internet have mentioned them in one form or another, but my personal experience was more complex and different as well as confusing which is why it took so long for progress to start being made. I found out that I have high IQ and intelligence which is the reason I punched above my weight with my creative projects. But as you know, even they weren't going well and I just ended up having basic skills at a number of things but not exceeding at any of them and having no coherency. And they didn't make up for the fact I was spending all day every day on them and nothing else was happening.
A few months ago, after months of figuring out the problems with professionals, I finally started taking medication to tackle all of this. It has taken a very long time to feel the continuous progress and there is more to come but a lot of progress has been made without going into too much detail. I have been putting a lot of effort into getting things back on track too.
Alongside that I was still struggling with choosing what to focus on. A few months ago I made the decision to learn 3D modelling in order to make a slop storytime animation channel for money. But after I felt the improvements from the medication, I returned to doing the things I did previously in the PvZ sphere because I wanted to enjoy and be good at my previous hobbies once again. However, a week ago I reflected on the fact that I wasn't enjoying that stuff anymore and it wasn't successful enough to justify spending time on it. The content I made included a mod that was started in 2017, rips, mashups, memes, videos, drawings and more. However, I decided I wanted to proceed with learning 3D modelling. Of course, I quickly remembered FNaF and thought that it would be a fun theme for my modelling practice.
But I also figured that I was actually enjoying working on FNaF stuff. It was just that the circumstances were different before and I didn't have the proper time for it. But with my newfound goals, a door opened that allows for me to confidently come back to the FNaF sphere for good. There are other factors such as how I don't like the PvZ community and creative sphere as much as the FNaF ones.
What does this mean?
I'm back to FNaF as a central hobby while having a bigger goal in the background. I have been having TONS of fun with 3D modelling the past week which makes me feel like I'm making the right choice. I will be directing my modelling practice, as flawed as it may be into an interesting FNaF fan game theme I figured out a few days ago, aka a potential game. I might work on the UE games again. We'll see. I'm not announcing anything right now because I myself don't know how things will pan out and I'm taking things slowly. But for all intends and purposes, I am back with a better foundation this time than I had during my previous activity. I hope you can put your trust in me once more and drive into the sunset of the future together!
