tw: mental health, depression update project, aug 31 2026 im not quite sure how to start this, but i have made a decision. I will be indefinitely quitting scratch. For a long time I have been struggling with my mental health, and now that school has started for me again I have a lot of stress going around about that, as well as less time to talk to friends and make animations. I haven't been coping in the best way lately either because of this. For now on i'm going to be taking a break, (not sure how long yet) until my mental health improves and I have motivation to post again. I may still post a few things now and then but overall I probably won't be as active. I AM NOT QUITTING FOREVER. This is just a break. I am very sorry to anyone I might have scared last night or before then; this is part of the reason I am leaving indefinitely. I do not want to spread my own stress to others and I should have realized what I was doing sooner. To anyone who had to go through that, I truly am sorry and hope you are doing well. If anyone wants to contact me I will still be checking my scratch messages. stay safe everyone <3 -perf
