Hello everyone!
I'm Draconica5 (or Dra or Draconic).
I used to active on Tapas.io since 2013 and then hibernated for a long time (for reasons below).
Now I am back with my newest project: DarkBleeder
I also have a Patreon page for this project: https://www.patreon.com/Draconic
About myself
I joined Tapastic on June 2013, now is Tapas.io. I started with a random comic series Random Life with no real goal or target, just mainly for fun. It was running quite good and fun at the time, I was able to get on Spotlight once too! But after 2 and a half years, something happened.
I nearly stopped activing on Tapas due to my mental illness in late 2015. I deeped myself in anxiety and depression for over a years, anti-depression pills couldn't help much for me. I hardly drew anything at that time due to anxious at failing, communicating and make a living. It was extremely hard to keep everything to myself and hardly to get any help. Not many people understand how depression work anyway, so I can only help myself with help of music, anime, manga and internet everyday.
At the end of 2016, I feel better and then start to redraw the first chapter of Darkbleeder and scratch off everything I had done before that. Couple months later, I was trying to reboot my other comic Random Life at the beginning of 2017, but my life wasn't stable enough to produce 2 comic series at the same time. So i silently hibernated and focus on drawing Darkbleeder. To the late of 2017, I final done the chapter-00 of DarkBleeder, but I feel it's not suitable for the first chapter of Darkbleeder! Then I decided to draw the next chapter, Chapter-01 publish it on Tapas (which is I am publishing right now).
And now I am here! After 2 years of fighting depression and anxiety, I am finally fine, everything is fine.
If I could travel back in time, I will slap myself in the pass when I was depressing and yell "YOU WILL BE FINE YOU DUMBASS". I am now sober and stable,
So that's about my story, I tried to keep it as concise as possible.
I am not a famous artist or such, but feel free to ask me about anything you want!
Or
About drawing, praticing, or dealing with anxiety and depression, anything!
I may can help you with my experience. I was hibernating for a long time so I think this is the best way to come back and make new friend.
