i was fairly open years ago with my art + sonas. now the stress i feel towards posting is severe, and i’ve been socially closed off from that account ever since. from being stalked/harassed and getting mostly negative + sometimes gross comments, i lost trust in the platform and mentally backed out

2- the characters i used to share were true reflections of me, and when people would disrespect them or interact negatively, i just couldnt take it and it hurt a lot when all i wanted to do was share them. now i just draw/post commissions or my mascot character which doesnt reflect me in any way
