As genuinely depressing as it always is to hear that someone else is going through a rough patch mental health-wise, I'm glad you're making the right steps, accepting support from others, recognizing that there's nothing wrong with not being okay 100% of the time, and just generally making improvements. I'm fortunate that my own mental health never got to the point of ideation like that, but at least one person close to me certainly has, and despite them knowing that's not ever a real option, it doesn't stop them from going there sometimes when stuff gets bad enough. I do what I can to try and help them, but it isn't always easy, especially because despite medication I still have bad days myself from time to time, and it's even harder to get someone out of that headspace when you're not exactly in a good one yourself.
All of this to say, I'm really glad to hear you're starting to do better. And please don't feel bad for posting about your personal goings-on. I know not everyone will be able to empathize like this, but any sane person should at least be able to sympathize. Besides that, even if we're just talking purely from a game-focused perspective, you are the dev; stuff affecting you necessarily impacts the game in one way or another. This just gives more context to it, if anything, and explains some of what we could only guess about before. If you don't want to post personal stuff anymore, that's perfectly fine and your call to make, I'm just saying that you don't need to feel like it's some kind sin to inform us of your current wellbeing, in hopes you can take some solace from that.
Looking forward to the next update as always. But don't feel pressured by me or anyone else's anticipation. I'm glad that working on the game is an effective coping mechanism for you, and I'm sure part of that comes from the pride you can take in the progress and quality of progress you provide. So I encourage you to take whatever time you need between updates to make the progress you're happy with, at a level of quality you find satisfactory. I think all of us here will be much happier knowing you're happy and healthy and seeing it reflected in the quality of your work on a somewhat sporadic basis, rather than making you feel rushed into putting out regular updates that don't reflect your true skill and talent.
Best wishes, dear ussdev~ ^-^
