Hey friends,
I'm taking a break from most social media platforms for a bit. This isn't about the furry community - it's about me needing to prioritize my mental health. I've been dealing with some emotional trauma from disturbing content, and social media's been triggering my anxiety.
The truth is, I've felt failed by support systems and society when I needed help with my needs and interests. It's time for me to focus on me.
So, what will I be doing instead? 🤔
- Doing art (because creativity heals)
- Stocking up on snacks 🍿
- Watching movies and shows that make me happy
- Taking warm showers and naps 😴
- Playing games that bring me joy
- Experimenting with new recipes 🍳
- Researching comfort toys like emotional support plushies and custom-made Lego Bionicle models
- Working on art projects, like Time Capsule
I'll still be around on YouTube, Furrafinity, Deviant Art, Twitch, Pinterest and Discord. And I'll be limiting myself to Facebook, Instagram, and Bluesky on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays only, with notifications paused during the day.
My break will last from April 6th to April 25th
Wishing myself (and you) a peaceful recovery journey 🙏. Wish me luck 🍀.
