Hey guys 👋🏽 here’s another update on Banka’s Life
Firstly, I want say I’m sorry for those who have been waiting patiently for their commissions. I promise I have been doing my best to continue finishing your amazing commissions. I am currently going through a Divorce with my ex. I moved out of the house in June, and moved in with my friend who’s also offered to help me out with planning my finances, my debt, and budgets.
I used to live 15 min from my work, but after I moved, It’s now an hour drive each way. I work early hours and I now get up around 4am to leave at 4:45am just to get to work by 6am.
Not enough sleep + divorce stuff + finances + family drama + drafting commissions = hella exhausted. I’d be back at my friends house by 5:30pm, short nap, draw for a bit then fall asleep around 11:30pm and repeat. The lack of sleep caused me to doze off on the highway and I hit a back of a semi-truck. I am completely fine, but the accident totaled my car. Had to immediately find a way to put a downpayment on a car with the little savings I had, but good news is I have a car! Bad news, I have to pay off the car note on top of other bills.
I am doing my best to stay positive. I have had fellow moots like @silshinobii @razildor @kirain to help me through this. At one point I thought I had Reznor (TheMournfulWatcher) beside me, who have been there and supported me through my tough moments. We got too close that we began a LDR for a few months. We both planned to meet in November. Only a few knew, but we mostly tried to keep quiet…It was a nice breakaway from all the hectic chaos, and I say ‘was’ because he ended up ghosting me all of the sudden and out of character. I was confused, Moots were confused, and more importantly it brought up a thicker wall.
I care a lot about people, I never ask for much, and I only ask for help when it is necessary because I like to figure things out on my own.
My family tries to listen and be there for me, but I was also raised in a very strict, catholic, and sheltered home, and everyone needs to know details of everything going on. Not my cup of tea. I’m literally the black sheep of the family hahaha
I’m used to doing things alone, but all the things that happened lately, really messed with my mental health.
I will need a break. Just a week or two to clear my head again.
Then I’ll be back with finished commissions and SMUT 🖤
Thanks for listening/reading my rant.
I love all the comments and DMs everyone sends me. I do not mind you even reaching out to say hi. I’m a very laid back nice person, funny, and I’m awkward af. Please don’t be afraid to reach out! 🩶
Thanks for keeping me busy 🖤
