I’ve been weening myself off of Valium for several months and my temper has come back to haunt me while my system gets used to just having Depakote manage it; it’s a partial symptom of a pseudo-seizure, I won’t take up your time with that. To help manage my mental health during this time I have set myself to quit social media and discussion boards for a month because my mantra of “Do Not Engage” has started to crumble and I don’t need the grief, you know?

So I’ll write my brain out over here. I’ll babble and I’ll tell tales. I’ll share what I find cool and make nonsense videos. I’ll hunt for possible collaboration. I’ll get the spark back because I won’t give myself any other choice or outlet. There’s plenty to do and I’m just going to get to it, no doom-scrolling, no getting into arguments with people that I don’t know, none of that. This house will also be getting back in order even if I need to be tyrannical about it.

That’s it, give or take. Off to roll some d20 and see what the party gets into this time, then it’s creative time on a late Friday night.
