i hate the days where i feel guilty for having fun while he's dying. i know it's a common experience, and i know that he'd want for me to feel joy and smile and laugh regardless. he'd feel worse if i told him, he doesn't want me to hurt, but. sometimes it feels near impossible. i'm sitting here trying to write or play video games or do something with my life to distract and enjoy myself, but every time i try, i just. feel so terribly guilty, yet empty, and all i want to do is curl up and cry

it feels kinda bittersweet leaving this website, however i've decided it is time to go. ive been on here since 2014 and seeing how downhill its gone is pretty saddening, however ive decided its not worth being here anymore. i havent made a single friend in all the years ive been playing chickensmoothie and its honestly too frustrating to even be apart of the pet side of the game. ive been doing art on here for years and ive also noticed its hard getting commissions now too. ive ran out of enjoyment being here and theres nothing holding me back anymore cause im not leaving anyone or anything special. im more so disappointed in how my time here has gone and the fact ive spent so much time here even though it wasnt overly worth it. im giving flightrising a try again and seeing how that goes, might try commissions there too, otherwise if i dont have success in making art, im not sure what i'll do.
got a bunch of other stuff going on that really sucks too, but im trying my best at least. being an adult and so lost in todays world is hard. im struggling a lot right now and feel so lost, but im trying not to give up, its really hard but im trying, i really am. i hope i can make it and maybe things will get better eventually too, my luck isnt great through so time will tell.

My birthday is in a week, and I don't feel as excited as I should be. I dont have anyone to hang out with on my birthday, and classes start on my birthday. I feel like its selfish, but I get so sad when my 'close friends' don't even bother to say happy birthday. I don't care about gifts, I just want to feel appreciated in some way.
It's been an awful week, I attended my uncles funeral and its just put me in an awful mood the pat few days.

I'll be quitting after the Christmas event but I just kinda wanted to reflect on my time here for a bit.
I joined this site 11 years ago when I was still relatively young and inexperienced with the world. This was my first real introduction to the world via the Internet. I grew up being excluded and bullied by my peers in school, which made me severely delayed in developing communication skills. Needless to say, people here were not very forgiving of my mistakes. They still aren't. On a site once populated by thousands, I felt very alone most of my time here. Excluded just like I was in real life.
I often wonder if I'd have been better off having never joined the site. I definitely think my experiences here contributed to my mental health decline, but then again, other websites and games were just as unkind. Maybe I'm just meant to be hated.
This will probably be my last post before quitting day but, then again, I might not even say anything when I leave. I'm not even sure why I'm saying this. I don't care. The person reading this doesn't care. No one cares. When I log out for the final time, no one will miss me. No one will look for me. I will leave and any evidence that I once existed here will slowly be buried and forgotten. I'd like to hope that maybe someday someone might stumble across my account and go "I wish you were still here, you seem like you were cool" but let's be real, they won't. I'll just be one of thousands of inactive accounts lost to time, and my thoughts, feelings, and work have never really mattered to anyone before. But then again, people often don't appreciate things until they're gone. We take everything for granted and only through loss do we regret not appreciating it when it was here. But I don't think anyone here will regret their treatment of me. They never have.
Hopefully this doesn't get me in trouble since I'm just talking about the community in general and not anyone specific but *shrug* I don't really care either way. I'm so tired and it's time to quit, one way or another.
Gone.

Was packing for college and then sprained my ankle. Moving in will be very not-pleasant now. I'm supposed to leave tomorrow.
Also I'm feeling scared in general. Just scared that I'm going to lose who I am as a person as well as the people who used to be a huge part of my life. I don't really know who I am to begin with. Sometimes I feel like I lost my personality in the past trying to be a people pleaser.

I’ve been having a really hard day. And I know it’s not my fault, but I really wish I just had the energy to do anything. I don’t want to sound rude to anyone. I don’t want to seem like im ignoring anyone. Im just so tired. But I’m glad he’s here, he’s the only one I can talk to right now without feel alone.
