Ive needed help for so long and there just isn't. I know, the world is fucked up and everyone needs help, but some of us were really fucked up and needed help when things were relatively 'normal' but when you add a global trauma on top of all the other personal ones it feels like swimming with bodies tied to your feet. I've needed a win for so long and I'd hoped that this release would be it but its been the opposite. I can't even pull it down. I dont want to do music, art or anything anymore.

@lilyunsub I was wondered if you had to deal in person with other people reacting to your work. I can’t imagine how hard that would be.
I hope you can find a way to protect yourself and establish boundaries so that you can keep doing you, working on your own paths.
I know nothing about resources for help in NZ, but it is sure challenging to find help you can trust and that actually makes a difference.
May you find your solid ground.

@Esther to be honest, I'd only been there for one person reacting in person and they kidnapped me so I haven't actually drawn much since then, been trying to figure out how to reclaim being able to do it again. NZ's very very understaffed in the mental health area (there is an 18 month wait for help atm). Thank you though, really appreciate your words ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
