So I decided for some time that I want to expand my art elsewhere and that was when Buzzly came along but sadly I don't feel like I belong there so I asked around and some kind soul recommended an art site called Artfol, I like it there already! I submitted 2 things and already have 2 followers.


So if you like, please follow me on Artfol - https://www.artfol.co/silverblaze55

Would anyone be so kind to help me out with something, Its is namely my social life…


To catch up with what is going on from 10+ years ago I worked in a Practice as a housekeeper with a small team and even though people have come and gone, My social life suffered for it. It was tough when after my home life with my family isn’t so great you would think that work would balance it out somewhere right? Well, That was what I thought at first. I made some great friends and they left and the environment at work started to change quite badly, The new staff came along at we eventually got on well and I found out months later that they didn’t really like me (plus they got the sack). This went on for some time and my sadness were affecting me to the point that I had to kept it bottled in for as long as 10 years, not even joking…


I couldn’t tell anyone my problems for trust issues was severely bad, It actually affected my health and had my first panic attack plus dark thoughts so I quitted my job. So I helped out at home for a year and by some miracle, there was a job offering back at my old job which I took. I don’t know how I got through it but I felt strong like nothing can hurt me like I learnt from the past and what to expect and now being back for 3 years whenever someone talks to me (if im lucky cause I’m busy) my mind kinda phases out and it takes me a while to say something so I always apologise saying “I’m miles away” whilst laughing but the sad truth is I’m SO used to people not talking to me and I actually want to have a social life again. But my brain just won’t register that people talk to me its like “Work, Go home…Done”.


I don’t really know what to do, I do try but I don’t want people who actually talk to me like I’m ignoring them. It really really sucks...

Ever since I returned from Buzzly I have more "watchers" here, I obviously still think it could be fake accounts that are still going. So if you're an active and genuine watcher than please comment so I don't block you. I just want to actually sort out my profile page and start to use here again.


If anyone is reading this, PLEASE don't just click Watch and just never come back. I'm finding it really annoying and rude to know who is an active person anymore, Thank you for the Watch but please actually interact with the artist. Who knows we could actually be friends you just haven't met yet. :)
