As a second post on Steemit, I will share more of my personal life story, and things that helped me, in hope to help someone else. hope you will enjoy it!
I was happy and content child, altough everyone sayd that I was too much of a dreamer, that I live in clouds and so on. From early age I was refusing to eat meat cause I loved all animals and didn't understand why people ate them. I lived in my own world when everything was perfect, making pasteline figurines, drawing a lot, writing songs before I even started to go to school. As I grew up, people started to have much impact on me and my way of life. Turning 21, I god into an intense relationship. after a while things got drastic. I fell into depression and didn't know how to get out of it. I even started to eat meat. Not focusing on handling my own emotions, I started to see all the things in the world that are wrong and that put me deeper in sorrow. I wasn't just a normal basic person that was fighting for myself in this world. i cared for others, even when I could'n help them. I started to read many conspiracy theories which was even worse for my views on the world. I was focusing too much on others and lost trust in people and humanity. I felt so alone, as if there was no one like me in the world. Along with that negative perception my body started to felt dis ease That put me all the way down but.....if I didn't fall so low i would never become a person I am today!
When you fall down, you start to look for solutions.
Removing animal products was the first and most beneficial step in my life. My emotions were easy to handle after the first month and I begin to realise that this was the smartest decision possible . Depression was gone all by itself without me doing anything about it (except removing death from my menu). I began to realise other difficulties, like toxic relationships, so as hard for me it was, I began to move from certain people that didn't have the right impact on me. I've had to get back in those times when I was a child with no worries in my mind. Creativity was the KEY. Getting back in art and creating as much as possible, my peace of mind came back to me. Staying in that creative path, focusing more on my own world than with what's happening outside, helped me to connect with inner answers and I am content now.
I will be writing more things that were benefitial for me, but for now, here are some of my artworks. have a nice day and remember to smile :)
