Urgent Update
Added 2023-04-19 23:50:35 +0000 UTCSo those of you that follow my Twitter or the Patreon Discord know that I was involved in a vehicle collision today. It was 100% my fault and I own up to my mistake. I looked away from the road for a minute, nothing new for me, but that time was the time I was punished for it.
I collided into a truck and totaled my car. The poor girl is completely destroyed. Physically I am fine. My shoulder hurts, my knee is swollen and my arm is scraped up but I am fine overall. The mental aspect is hitting me more. I have never been in a collision like that and I didn't think I was gonna be alive right now considering how it went.
I am trying to recover from it but it seems my body is spazzing out thinking about it and how it could have been vastly different. I know accidents happen and I am grateful to be alive but yeah, it fucked me up something fierce.
I am still drawing. All of my stuff made it fine, only the car got absolutely destroyed. However, I am going really slow with art because I keep shaking from the thoughts of what happened. Please bear with me as I am trying to move forward.
Thank you.

I know how it feels, I manage to crash into a pickup truck turnd my hood into an accordion, it's not a good feeling, the shaking and anxiety kicks in. I looked away for a second just as you did and that it all it takes, just 1 second of not looking forward :( it takes time but you'll get through it soon :) take your time to get beck on your feet :3

2023-04-20 10:10:16 +0000 UTCDamn, I'm really sorry to hear that. Take however long you need. I had something similar happen not too long ago, and it was hard to get past those 'what if' thoughts. I found that, when I started having those thoughts, it really helped to do a task that had a lot of steps, and then consciously think about every step as you do it. Or a simple task that was repeatable. Ground yourself in what your doing, and eventually I stopped falling into a loop of 'what if.'
