Hi everyone
So sorry for that break. I really must thank everyone for your messages, not only those who commented here, but to those who Emailed me as well. Thank you so very much, i greatly appreciate each and every one. Bless you.
Well my "issues" have gone back into their box once more. They will be back one day,that I know, but hey! Lets have some fun in the meantime.
I have new art and stuff to share. That is one of the odd things about my problems, the downs are really down and nothing works and nothing helps but when the ups come my creative side goes crazy. Not only with my art and things here, but also with the other more mainstream areas i contribute to as well.
So no more about that. On with the good stuff.

ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I wasn't one of the people who sent well-wishes. but for what it's worth, I have thought of you and of course I'm glad to see you've returned. Your problems, as you've described them, feel rather familiar to me. Speaking for myself, when I'm down, I don't feel like doing much of anything, whether it's working on art or even something simple like getting dressed. I can't say that nothing helps, though, since I haven't tried everything. One of the few friends I have keeps insisting I should be on medication, but I keep brushing off that suggestion. However, on the rare occasions that I'm up, my creativity goes into overdrive.
Anyway, I look forward to seeing your new art or whatever.
Hi Rocket
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about messages, glad you are ok too. We seem to share the same problems, big exciting highs abduction crushing lows. I was on medication after my first attacks years ago. It was a very sad time for me, but even then i rwaluaed the medication was smothering me and though removing my darkest thoughts, it killed my desires to create as well. So since then I have wrapped myself in the love of my friends and family and waited for the darkness to fade. It is frightening because in the past parts of "me" have been lost. Still miss the long term concentration needed to write fiction again.
Anyway we are both here, so let us look up not down.
My best wishes in return Rocket and i hope to see some New art from you soon as well.
Welcome back Andy. I know from experience the difficulties you face, how tough it can be and admire your strength and courage to keep going. I know how hard it is to focus on anything when you're down.
ReplyDeleteYou have a great talent, your art. It's a god given gift and I'm so pleased you continue to share it with us.
I have so much admiration for you.
Best wishes. x.
Oh my goodness, that is so very kind of you 'Skin.
DeleteI do not believe anyone's pain and problems are unique, but when you are in their grip it feels that way. No one understands or knows, but that is not so. We all have issues and with help and understanding we can all survive.
Thank you for hanging about for my return. I greatly appreciate it.
