Hello, lovely people. My life took a big turn 4 months ago and I was also on the tail end of burnout with the site. After some distance from here and the dust settling in my life, I look back at the site I basically took down with such fondness. I've attached a past blog post to my links/websites page.

My life circumstances have improved and I find myself, while at my core the same person, unrecognizable in some regards. My mind is clearer and I feel less turmoil. It'd be neat to pour some creativity into the site, but I lack confidence I won't lose focus again. We'll see with time, I suppose. Hope everyone is well.
Super happy to see you back <3 and glad to hear things are looking up for you

I'm happy to hear your situation has improved. It's nice to see the suicide prevention page back up, too. Your writing has always felt very compassionate to me. I hope to see more from you soon. Even if you lose focus again, you've already seen that it's not stopping you from still moving forward. You can always come back when you feel ready again. Wishing you the best <3
@bearlythere Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your incredibly kind comment, and for what you said about my writing too. It feels great that it might be of value to others, or even just elicit emotion.
