Thanks for the encouragement! I haven't got all my creative juices flowing again yet, but just being out walking with the camera in hand again has been good for the overall mood 😊

Oh, you're all good. I just watched that movie again yesterday, so totally got the reference 😁. I also use that line at times to keep myself going. I really do appreciate the encouragement 😊.

It did feel nice, but I still kinda had to make myself do it. I'm not totally back in the groove, but know I need to do *something* other than sit on my bum all day, lol. But it really did feel good to get outside and at least try 🙂.

I'm sorry you're going through that. I hope that you're able to find some help that fits your needs. It took me many attempts before I found some help that actually worked for me. Sending good energy your way ☺️

Thanks. I wasn't able to do it on my own, I needed lots of help from loved ones and professionals, and there's still a long road ahead. You can do it too! Reach out to someone and talk about it. You're not alone in the battle, even if it might feel that way. 😊

Yeah, it took a bit of prodding for me to pick it up again, too. Prodding, therapy, and some new meds, lol.
I usually try for the art prompts and am planning on getting back into them. Tbh, I haven't even opened bsky for a long time, so I'll have to catch up on them all.

Not the greatest photo, but to me, it represents a small victory over the challenges of life.
