Here's a bit of an overdue update for you all...

Well, I thought I should do a bit of an update for you all saying as I've been not so active here on dA and stuff lately...

I guess the reasons I haven't really been active besides being busy with schoolwork and homework and all are my mental health and my life...

I've been feeling like I'm letting people down and affecting them negatively even when they tell me the opposite of what I'm believing myself to be; it's difficult to explain but I'll give it a try...

Basically, I've been swaying back and forth from happy to sad in the past weeks and there isn't really anything that's causing this to happen, no one and nothing is really hurting me or anything of the sort, it's just been me, my frustration with my emotions, and my sorting out those issues...

As a result of this, I've had literally no inspiration to draw; I draw a tiny bit and then whatever I'm working on turns out horribly and I end up becoming even more frustrated with myself...

I've been struggling to draw lately due to this stress, frustration, and sadness and I wish those factors would leave me alone but they never do; I mean sure, they seem to go away temporarily and I feel fine but then something always happens and whatever happens pushes me right back to where I started...

I keep telling myself that maybe the next week will go better than the current week and that kind of helps in keeping me going and I have my school's Prom on May 29th to look forward to but those can only help me so much...

Jonah, he tries to help me the best he can but he can only do so much to help me and I don't want to stress him out with this kind of stuff or anything like that because he's got some stress of his own that he's sorting out himself at the moment... He also doesn't know how it feels to have a mood disorder that makes your mood sway like a tree branch on a very windy day like I do...

I'll probably try to draw something soon, hopefully either today or tomorrow...

Also, don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the contest prizes - I'll be getting to those as soon as I can...

That's it for now...
