TDLR: hiatus for idk how long and tou still stands

Hello to the one person that will read this garbage! I feel stupid and melodramatic for posting this, but as for the past several months running this blog has only made me feel bad about myself and added stress to my life. I’ve been thinking about leaving or just taking a break for awhile now, but haven’t been able to because I’ve been afraid of losing all the people that I’ve gotten to know in this community, even I don’t really know any of you guys and I’ve been too shy to reach out to anyone. I obsess over my follower count and likes and I’ve gotten jealous of others?? I feel so nasty acting this way since I literally don't care whatsoever about that shit on my other social medias. I constantly compare myself to the other simblrs  and feel bad about everything I’ve put out and how much less interaction I get that I’m just done with feeling obsessive and awful. 

Simblr has kinda just sucked the fun out of playing the sims. I haven’t been able to play a sims life from YA to Adult and fully explore the packs I’ve spent money on. Idk but I just feel extra pressure to buy these useless packs whenever I see people post screenshots of it on their simblr too?? For gameplay I capture photos every millisecond that just feel like I’m never actually playing anymore I’m just taking screenies for like 20 minutes and then exiting the game. Writing an actual story line has gotten progressively harder for me and idk man that just fucking sucks. When I first started my simblr with my nsb legacy my story was shitty looking back but at least i had fun writing it then. I can’t finish a story without getting bored and just starting a new save. I just wanna enjoy my game without having to worry about making it look good y’know? Plus my life has gotten so much busier that I don’t even have time to play anyways so I don’t want to stress when I do have the chance to play.

lmao sorry writing an essay about why I’m taking a break from running my simblr but I just need to let out all of my frustration. Thank you to the folks who just like all my posts, I feel superficial for saying this but it just made me feel really good about the shit I was posting! 

All y’all are amazing and talented people!! I’ll miss you in the meantime ♥♥♥♥
