I'm hoping that this year for Jacksepticeye's Thankmas event I can finally do something to contribute. I really want to try this year, especially with how this year is about something I have experienced first hand.

For years I have been depressed. I have tried and tried to reach out to anyone for help, but never got what I needed. I have made so many attempts on my life that I'm surprised not a single one has worked. For years, I have been overlooked and have felt insignificant and small like a background character in someone else's story. I have never had much money - I am still barely scraping by - and I have never had enough to get the help that I needed - that I *still* need.

Earlier this year, some time in August I had been admitted to the hospital after a suicide attempt, and was stuck in the Behavior Health clinic for a week. During that time I was given antidepressants and had a therapist and for the first time probably since I was old enough to comprehend my own existence, I had felt like myself. I felt an absence of that sadness and pain that I've been living with for so many years of my life, I felt relief and peace and calmness and for the first time in a long time, I hadn't had a single thought about taking my life.

The month after my release I had a prescription of antidepressants that I had been taking daily, and everything felt alright for once, but without the ability to get therapy I was told I couldn't refill that prescription, and slowly I started to sink back into that depression.

Feeling yourself fall back into this pit of sadness and self loathing that you'd felt like you were finally able to escape if even for a while, is the most terrifying thing I have ever experienced, even more terrifying than being a child and facing my abusive father when he was drunk and angry.

I'm trying desperately to hold on and keep going, to find some kind of financial stability that will allow me to get the help that I need again to pull myself out of this pit of depression, but I'm struggling and it's truly scary.

This year, if I can, if even a dollar or a message or just something, I want to try to contribute to thankmas, put some kind of effort towards giving someone else a second chance that I myself may never get. I want to be part of the reason that someone else can keep going forward, even if my effort to assist is small and ultimately goes unnoticed in the end. No one should live feeling this pain or sadness or like there's no hope for them, no one should have to deal with the fear of being uncertain if today will be their last day because they can't handle the pain that they're in.

I just want to help. I want to assist in making some kind of difference for others. I want to be there, even if I'm not noticed. I think one of the worst experiences is having someone look you in the eye and tell you to just get over your depression even though they don't understand just how painful it can be. This year, even though it's still early (not even Halloween by the time I'm making this post), I want to be part of why that changes.

So, even though it's still early; here is my acknowledgement to all of those struggling. You're not alone. I may not understand what you're going through, everyone's experience is different, but I know it's painful and I know it's tough. I want things to change, for you, for me, and for everyone else going through this, but in the meantime, please just hold on. It may not seem worth it a lot of times, but there will be a day when it is. I believe that there will be a day when things get better, and I hope you'll be there to see it.

Sketchmas 2024 is getting closer!

Who is planning to donate to Sketchmas this year?

[karsyntries]

Hi, hate to bother you but I had a question about Sketchmas. If we donate at a certain price to request a specific artist, but they still end up getting a lot of requests, would our request be handed off to someone else anyway? I know that it most likely wouldn't happen but I still wanted to ask.

Okay, so I’ve been trying to figure out an easy way to do this pricing system. Lately, I’ve been discussing whether we should change up the system.

We want to avoid some of the super popular artist from getting an overwhelming amount of request. (For example, Magpie and Suzi who will be joining this year)

Some really popular artist may make a separate supporting campaign connected to Sketchmas or we could make a reward that you can click on for certain popular artist and there is a way to see how many slots they will have left.

Sorry if that was confusing but I promise I will figure this out and will make a post if we end up doing changes.
