Hello! To everyone who's seeing this because they know me, I'd like to apologize for my inactivity and explain some things! Firstly, I'm so so so sorry for completely disappearing despite the fact I have literal jobs in multiple roleplays. I understand how that can cause a lot of issues, and I'd also like to apologize to everyone who I roleplay with, for my characters basically just disappearing. Now, the update! ( TW FOR MENTAL HEALTH TOPICS AND MENTIONS OF ILLNESS ) So I'd like to at least explain why I've been gone so long. I'm not making excuses, just trying to give reasons <3 First of all, I've been REALLY depressed lately, so I haven't had the motivation to do much of anything, asides from the absolute necessities and doom scrolling for hours. Secondly, my grades have not been too good this semester, so I'm basically grounded at my dads (who I'm with during the weeks) Thirdly, my mom has been having some major health issues, so I've been stressed abt that on top of everything else. Fourthly, HOLIDAYS. need I say more? Stress central right there Fifthly, I've remembered why I just completely abandoned my last account now! Turns out, roleplaying on a website is one of the most stressful things for me? I don't think I trust people who are basically strangers with my characters or smth? And while I don't want to repeat history, this account may unfortunately suffer the same fate. So, unless I have a sudden magical mental recovery, I may not be on scratch much longer! If there's anything I need to do, like passing on studio ownership or anything, I will be checking my notifs for a while, so just uh, lemme know! Signing off, maybe for now, maybe forever, Starfire_Souls <3
