Hey everyone, you may or may not remember me (not sure how much the platform has changed.)
I joined imgflip as mushlling, sometime around 2021 i think? not exactly sure, but i started posting art--specifically my one oc, tangerine. Everything kind of skyrocketed from there, I loved posting my art and interacting with everyone in the stream, and I have a lot of good memories from those times.
It has been a very long time since then, and about a year since ive been on here! I thought it would be nice to come back for a little while.
So what happened?
The main reason why I left was a lack of motivation, along with relationship issues and overall not having a great time. This made me realize that I needed to take time to work on myself and become a better person, because im gonna be completely honest--i SUCKED (i was really emo) and i am so very embarrassed about it (if you knew me during those times...i am SO VERY SORRY. genuinely.) Of course everyone is a work in progress, but I can safely say I have gotten to a point where I am content with myself and my life.
If you have or are currently experiencing similar things (ie. depression, stress, etc.) just know that it does work out. A couple years ago I wasnt even sure if I would make it to 2024, and now I am confidently looking towards the future.
Some other developments have been made, as well. I got diagnosed with ADHD this year and I am now medicated, which most definitely has helped me with schooling and overall improving my relationships with family members, friends, even strangers!
Long story short, my mental health has gotten way better and i want to start posting art stuff again. Probably not as frequently as i used to, but its the thought that counts. i think.
anyway, i hope yall are doing well and i look forward to meeting new friends, seeing old friends, and just chillin. having a good time. hip hip hooray!
