i am typing this out from my heart, i'll try be as genuine as possible with my wording and be as honest as i can with my choices - so please, have a read if you want to be informed:
--
1 - I'm going to partially take time to focus on myself, my friends and my family - this means not being chronically online or posting everyday,, only if i feel like making genuine drawings or posts updating my health, my lore or important events. this also means that i will be posting every few days, and not every day like i usually do, this is to benefit [1], my mental health and my physical health (showering, eating, sleeping, time with close ones), and [2], more time to reflect on my storytelling and art skills, too.
(this break will help my journey of growth begin)
2 - I'm going to start setting boundaries or rules about when i'm here and when i'm gone - this means that if i don't reply to a message of yours if you have me added on something, it means i might be busy with my life, school, friends and family - so if i don't reply, please do not spam text me to come back.
(i will gradually grow to love myself and appreciate myself)
3 - I am still developing,, i'm growing up, and times for me online can overwhelm me - there may be times where certain comments or situations that happen can throw me into emotional overdrive and i may get upset, angry or put in a bad mood - there are times where i vent and then delete the posts just to let it out, and i will try my hardest to stop that and focus on the more positive side of things when it comes to creating content - being a creator has its challenges and responsibilities after all -- ON A SIDE NOTE : with all of the working i will be doing, whether it's on MYSELF or my ART, please respect my boundaries and do NOT ask for fan-art or offer any art-trades or collabs until i say i am open to do so - there are some people from months back reminding me about unfinished fan-art and/or art-trades and collabs, and it makes me that little bit more anxious.
(i will learn to feel more loving of myself and the talent that i hold)
4 - Along with that, if i do end up being offline for a certain amount of time and start to grow worried - i will assure you, i AM and WILL be okay! - please do not try and contact my friends asking about me, i do not want them to feel overwhelmed like i do at times, it's not a nice feeling, especially if its unneeded (like trying to contact them to tell me about something like an event, , i will eventually return and be informed myself)
--------- <-- (and my personal character building will grow to be something worth all that waiting for)
-- This is going to be a big change for me, but this will only be a SMALL step for me, too. I want to change and i want to improve not just my art, but myself as well -- So i will be taking more time out of my Gamejolt to spend with people i love - please understand my decision and respect it, as this is a big change for me that will gradually start to help me sprout into a more outward and passionate person.
