Update: Still struggling a bit (Patreon)

Been pretty stressed out, as I come closer and closer to finally being able to start the comic Ive been cooking up I keep getting blindsided by surprise costs and responsibilities that just take me out of the headspace I need to move forward

The world is in a nasty place and things are getting more expensive as I make less and less each month passively so I need to actively do other things to compensate and Im finding it a difficult balance

I try to make it up but its always a trade off and its just a bummer...

I know the easiest solution is to just regularly post in public again and make/ advertise stuff but it seems like Im waiting for it to feel like its the right time and it just never feels like the right moment

There are things going on in the world that I feel complicit in our (my) collective failure to change things fast enough and I just dont know how to reconcile this with... the fact that the solution to most of my problems seems to just be draw more

Its a weird headspace to be in creatively

Its definitely a mental health issue but like... I dunno

I need to seek help, whatever it is Im tanking I cannot handle it alone
