Anyone still there?

Its been a weird couple of months for me. I've been dealing with a little anxiety of an unknown nature and that really impeded my ability to be creative. However, without going into too much detail, I think I'm on the mend. In fact, today I woke up and I was like, "you know what? I'm not going to be crippled by this weird anxiety and just do something! So this morning I went for a 6 mile run, then I left the house for a coffee shop near me, and I put the pen to the page (or screen as the case may be.) I didn't know what was going to happen. However, for the first time in what feels like forever, I'm actually happy with the results. Now, I've reached out to some friends to hang out tonight. For anyone who doesn't know me personally, this is a huge step for me as I've been perfectly comfortable in my introverted ways for a number of years now. Wish me luck!

Today feels like a new day.

Here is what I drew today. I'm feeling great about it as I stepped outside of yet another comfort zone. She is looking up. It may not seem like a big deal, but I've been struggling with this for a while.
