Requited Change Update

Hey everyone,

Did some cleaning up and editing and a couple of more pages.

I'm beginning to feel a bit better and know that I can push for more pages this upcoming week. My therapist and Dad have helped me out a lot. My Dad has kept me off of the internet and away from the PC until I was truly ready to return to it.

One of the key breakthroughs I had in therapy was that I've been beating myself up constantly by convincing myself that I'm lazy, my work sucks and that I deserve to suffer for it. But in reality, it's because of some 'other me' sitting in my skin that's killing my productivity. This has been a cycle of negative emotions and thought processes that I'm beginning to break.
I suppose I have a 'Katy' inside of me, but instead of trying to feminize me, she's trying to besmirch everything that I'm doing and destroy my willpower. A true devil on my shoulder and in my head.

This next week shall be make or break for whether I give everyone a free upcoming month. I've gotta get some goodwill back and prove to myself that I can do this and that my work is to a high enough standard. I'm subscribing to WAY too many negative thought processes at the moment.

Again, no excuses. It's rough, but apparently something like 59% of content producers that work from home experience this form of depression. I've just got to make sure it doesn't take me entirely and avoid the steps that led to this point in the future. I'll take the repercussions as always until I'm better.

Thanks to Cole Jones btw for the Easter wishes and I'll extend mine to you all too. And Aiel for the love of all that's holy, drop your pledge from $25! I appreciate it, I really do, but we both know that I don't deserve it at the moment.

Appreciate you all, thanks for all your support, both verbal and monetary. I'll speak to you all again next Friday. Wish me luck with the comic!

Update:

Had a horrendous week this week. Three pages...
Do you know what that means? A FREE MONTH NEXT MONTH.

I can financially take the strain, so don't worry. I sold a load of junk, so I'll be fine this next month. What I'll be doing is having the first two weeks off and then getting back to work for the latter half of May, I need a little break and have some ideas brewing too about things.

I really do appreciate the support at the moment everyone. I will get myself back, I know I will, but just when I think I've hit the nadir I find a shovel.

Next Friday shall be more Requited Change. I can't do anymore this week, sorry.

That's due to editing mostly. That voice telling me to get rid. Thanks Fred, my demons aren't going to beat me. I've done it before, and I'll get there again, I swear.

We all have a issue of our alter ego that we want high expectations to fulfill and thus work much harder than most people but never beat yourself up for not working hard enough because we forget that we have certain limits and I sometimes forget that I can't be a robot doing everything. You are you and need to get you to be better and to heal in the process. In the end we are all going through a similar rough situation.

I kinda want to see a ch by ch progression of Katy that would be höt

You are incredible and the furthest thing from lazy. Don’t put yourself down! Not much else I can do as an internet stranger but encourage and hope you’ll fight the hardest to get those negative emotions out of your system. As someone who has had people close to them deal with similar issues, I won’t pretend it’s easy but every little moment of victory matters and is worth being proud about. Great job on staying offline for a bit and getting a bit of fresh air and perspective - a great habit to have! Rooting for ya

I do not see images 1093, 1094 & 1096. Were those removed in the edits? As to the other stuff, I'm glad you seem to have the support to help deal with it. Your Patreon supporters believe in the quality of your work, so please stop telling yourself that you don't deserve their support. That's just more of 'Katy's' negativity trying to pull you down. Hopefully, 'her' voice will grow quieter as time passes.
