I was informed by a friend that my piece for Pico-Cross got the frontpage and I just wanted to come back online real quick and say:

Holy shit! Thank you! I genuinely never thought this would happen! During my vacation from the hellish world known as The Internet, I've been avoiding doing artwork, as me overworking myself was one of the causes of my mental breakdown. However, knowing someone loved something I made that much makes me wanna do something cool again.

Though, saying I've been avoiding the internet completely is sort of a half-lie. I initially isolated myself completely from the web, but later decided only to avoid social platforms like Newgrounds, YouTube, Discord, etc. My only exception is messaging friends on Discord because I miss them.

In regards to my mental health, getting that fixed up is still taking up most of my free time. Unfortunately a therapist is out of my budget, so I've resorted to doing my own research on how to better myself. It's too early for me to tell how well that's working, but I'm staying optimistic.

As for when I'm gonna be back, maybe around a month-ish? Give or take a few days or weeks? The real answer is whenever I feel I'm in a good enough spot to come back. But I wanted to give a rough estimation for those who wanna know. This shit ain't easy, so it's gonna take time.

Anyways, welcome everyone who followed because of that piece, and I hope you enjoy what I bring in the future.
