The Sad Update Of A Depressed Kitty by ElementalSpirits

Hi guys,

I just realised that I don't think I ever officially posted anything here, but even if you don't follow my other social media I'm sure you noticed the dramatic drop in art for almost an entire year now. In short my mother was diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of the year and it has pretty much shattered the frail remains of what I liked to pretend was my mental health.

There is more detail on the latest here if you would like to feel as depressed as me:

Although I haven't posted anything here in apparently two months I have decided to quit social media for the time being until I am in a better state of mind, but I will still try to keep my patreon updated with something (maybe monthly) if you want to check in to see sketches etc. If you want to talk to me I will still check my messages and I will try to reply when I am able, although I may take a very long time as I don't have a lot of energy for talking or writing.

I'm aware I still have some commissions waiting and I'm ever grateful for your continued patience with me. I hope in a few months my mum will be strong enough that I can work on them, but nothing has gone as hoped so far so I can't promise anything. If you wish to cancel your commission at any time however I will 100% understand and you can contact me whenever for a refund.

Thank you all for your support over the time.

    Fragile mental health I understand all to well. We lost 2 cats in 2 weeks and my son who has been fighting Cancer for almost 3 years now is in the end stages. So sorry about your mother. I know it doesn't make it easier, but know that some of us understand what you are dealing with better than you think.

      Thank you for your kind words. I'm so sorry to hear about what you are going though, I wish none of us had to go though it but unfortunately there are a lot of us. My best friend also lost her mum to cancer a year ago and she been a rock for me, but I'm also frightened to hang too much on her when she's clearly so heavily grieving. One day there will be a cure and no one will have to suffer like this any more. It's my only hope. hugs

    I'm so sorry to hear you have to endure this. It's totally fine to take some time for yourself and your family when needed. I wish all of you a lot of strength and a successful recovery! <3
