Went to my first robot combat event in a year yesterday (and only my second since COVID), felt good to be there, even as just the videographer (I did get to run one match).

What a difference 18 months makes.
The one on the left is me now, compared to November 2023.
Sometimes you got to hit rock bottom and then you can come out stronger (although I nearly didn't leave said bottom).

It's amazing how the change in mental attitude and health affects you physically, and how you style yourself.
One of these (my profile pic here) was the summer of 2023, when I was in a very bad place mentally, the other was yesterday, on my way to a very good days activities.

At new year I was sitting in pretty much this same spot on Crosby Beach, overlooking the Mersey, and strongly contemplating just throwing myself in.
I didn't, and thanks to the help of a number of friends, I'm now in a much better place.
Therapy and medication has helped beyond belief

Yes, that's the Marriage of Figaro, which I've just been brought on this week to do the lighting for a show this Friday (my first stage work in 5 years), and yes, that's my finger in a cast, as I broke it this morning.

So here's this weeks change.

I went to a robot event saturday with one of my friends (one of a small group thats kept me sane this year)
He was amazed how I had changed and was talking to strangers, and so getting out my comfort zone; until I reminded him I'd been doing these events for 25 years, it very much was a comfort zone
