Reached My Limit: A Necessary Break
Hello everyone...
I suffered a mental breakdown and feel very depressed. My productivity went way down. I never thought I would get burned out, but it happened, and I think it has been for the last three months. I had numerous bad experiences, both personal and professional. I've had to deal with a lot of personal problems along the way, but I haven't stopped working for a moment. In this niche, the key is to produce consistent content that is fun. I haven't had time for myself, to seek professional help, and now I feel I need it more than ever.
I feel like I need to stop, at least for a week. I need to clear my head and regain the strength to keep going. I have been in a brutal routine for years, even working weekends. Even when my mother died last year, I barely allowed myself two days off.
I have lost all motivation, and it could be dangerous to continue like this. When one hits such an emotional low point, dark thoughts recur. I know some of you have had similar experiences, and I know that a post like this could hurt support on Patreon, which, in the end, helps me survive and pay for development costs. I don't blame you guys, most of you are here to receive a product. But I need a break, I really do, I'm sorry, I need to regain strength and my motivation, because otherwise I won't be able to give you the quality content you deserve.
Sorry to disappoint you. I wish I didn't have to do a post like this; I want to get on with the development as soon as possible to bring you the continuation of Charlotte's story, (which was the winner of the last community vote), but now I simply feel overtaken.

Sorry to hear about your loss it sounds like you need time to recover and rebuild, no shame in that as another said earlier its brave of you to post and let everyone know where your heads at,
Everything in life is transactional & cannot be truly be kept however your Health Is Your Wealth buddy so take the time you need and we will all see you on the other side,
Take the break, if you need it people will understand. Your personal health is way more important !
I feel a week might not be enough, perhaps rest for a bit longer and while you are resting consider having a day or two off every week once you are back.
Don't forget that we should be working to live not living to work.
Take your time, rest, maybe play game, watch a show or whatever makes you relax.
We will be waiting either way <3
Take all the time you need. I love the game and the content you make but physical and mental health will always be important. I know I'll be here when you're ready to come back and i know there will be tons of other people waiting and wanting you in good health.
I appreciate that you are able to reach out and let us know you are going through this I know myself as a fan enjoy it when people I watch go the extra step to be honest when something is going on. Your health and mental health is immeasurably important. we will still be here when you get back I don't care how long it takes.
Thanks for creating a post like this, because it takes courage just to recognize something like this is happening to you, and even more to share it with others.
My recommendation would be to spend some time out in nature if you can, a walk/bike path, a park, your yard if you have one, it doesn't matter where. Stand in the grass without any shoes on, feel the sun's warmth shining on your face, and notice how you breathe.
If you can do that for 15 minutes a day, great, even more, so much the better. It sounds strange, and I'm no doctor, but you should feel a general improvement in your body just by doing something simple like this. It will be particularly effective if you've been stuck indoors a lot recently.
Release your burdens you've been carrying for so long. The game can wait, your health takes priority.
i love your game man, so if you need a break take one, take as long as you need, we will be here for you when you come back
I had a burnout myself a while ago, take a good break maybe start something to get your head off things. ( I started driving my bike alot and go to the gym )
And i want to be clear, atleast in my opinion you dont disappoint me. You worked alot and now you need a break and my respect that you actually take actions now. I waited for almost a year and it ended really bad. Nothing to be ashamed off.
I wish you the best in your rest and recovery! It's terrible to hit a low point like this. For now just try to take your mind off of what's ailing you and heal as best as ya can. I'm sure you can get through this!
That's all good man, take however much time you need.
