Signs of life
I don't even know what made me look in on LJ again. Probably nostalgia. The longing for the good old days.
Fandoms are not what they used to be. I know almost no active portfolios anymore. There used to be so many creative people posting their fanarts, icons, etc. Now, most creative outpourings (including mine) are limited to fanfiction. And also the writing has decreased a lot. There is also hardly any feedback from outside, so the motivation suffers a bit.
And then, of course, there's real life, which always gets in the way.
Now, for example, I've been on sick leave since the beginning of October and would have time, but the muse has let me down.
I'm also currently looking for a new job, since I literally worked myself to death in the hospital. First I had a lumbago, but that was only the beginning. The whole thing was crowned by a massive burnout and depression.
I don't like to take medication because I haven't had the best experience with it in the past. So I take 'Calmvalera' several times a day, it's herbal and not addictive.
My applications are running. Let's see where it will take me.
