So yeah, unless it wasn't blatantly obvious by now, I'm dropping out of SXL. I admit in the past few weeks (month?) I've been dealing with severe depression and stress and had to prioritize my waning energy. Since SXL is a competition, and I really couldn't see myself holding up my en of the bargain, I decided it would be kinder to other competitors if I dropped out before I was paired against someone and then didn't do my side of the battle later on. That and well, I just didn't have the energy these past weeks to work on it.

I actually do have one colored scene and sketches and partial inks for the intro. I... wanna try and finish it anyways, on my own time, not for the contest but for myself. So that's something to look forward to?

I decided to take a medical leave from work to get my shit together, so I'll have some extra time for myself for the next few weeks. I'll be juggling real life things though so it doesn't mean I will necessarily have more time to draw. I have to apply for social help to pay rent, find and move to a new apartment and all that jazz. On the upside, the medications my doc put me on seem to be working, so I'm not all mopey and stuff the past few days!
