Life Updates and Halloween 2020 (Patreon)
Content
Welp, it’s been a while.
First off, I want to apologize for being MIA for the last few months. To be completely honest, I’ve been struggling with my mental health this year. It seemed to magnify after the wedding in February and I’ve going down a very slippery slope within my own mental state. Between fits of anxiety and PTSD episodes, I haven’t been functioning well.
I am ok though. Mag and my friends have been helping, and I’ve started up therapy a couple of weeks ago. It’s been the first time I’ve actually been in therapy in years and I’m starting to get onto the road to recovery. Truth be told, I’ve… never gone to therapy for the past abuse I experienced from my ex (which happened 5+ years ago), so this was a long overdue thing.
Again, this is why I usually say I am a HORRIBLE role model. I’m human and very, VERY flawed. This year has been very troubling and extremely hard for a lot of us, and I know everyone is going through their own struggles, hence why I unplugged. I didn't want to add to people's struggles with my own issues (plus I'm terrible with trying to verbalize how I'm actually feeling). I know people come to me for entertainment and for a way to escape the realities we are dealing with now, which is why I usually keep these kinds of updates to just Patreon.
But I do have some good news coming up. I know I have been very quiet, and I’ve had a few people poking me about Halloween this year. I’ve decided I wanted to change things up and go with a musical theme. During the month of October, I will be uploading 6 Songs; 5 are based on things in the MLP fandom, with one being a creepy Animal Crossing Song. They range from a Silent Ponyville 2 Song, to a Parody of a Linkin Park song to the theme of Rainbow Factory. To be honest, this is something I have actually wanted to do for a very long time, and since the last few Halloweens have been very difficult on me, I wanted to step back and do something a little more fun and easier for myself, but still bring quality content I’m known for.
I will be posting previews of the Halloween content soon (I’m currently enlisting the help of Magpiepony and PegasusPitchVA for music mix and audio editing), so be on the look out for that.
I want to thank all of you for your continuous support and… just being so understanding with me. This year has been one of the hardest for me mentally, and I may be extremely quiet at times, but I see all of your messages and kind words. They mean so much to me, and give me the strength I need to keep going, even if I may want to give up. Thank you.
Here is hoping for a better half of the year,
Lost
