Writing once a year, life-long depression, shorter reviews, and what-not

It's been a while since I posted anything here. The sad thing is I actually have a ton of reviews but they're all in a draft shape. I really want to keep up with everything, but it's not easy - you know - living life on hard mode. The life you never wanted. But I have to keep going, and so I want to write something and post it here at least once a year.

When I started this site, it was because I wanted a place to post all the reviews I'd already written at that point. As a teenager back then, I often daydreamed of becoming a video game journalist. I even sent some articles to sites like GiantBomb, back when fan entry was a thing.

When I graduated university, I was more realistic. I sincerely wanted to pursue a career in the UX/UI industry, feeling like I discovered a gem, because this was not yet a thing in my country. I had a promising interview, then COVID-19 happened, washing away the start that I've always wanted.

All my dreams never came to fruition. I never had any support for anything, but I was often determined to move on my own, until depression held me on my track.

Depression, specifically chronic clinical depression, has destroyed and is destroying my life. It destroyed my academic and social life at university. It, along with COVID-19, destroyed any potential for careers I had. Therapies temporarily helped me, but going through it alone often cancelled everything out. It should be an accepted fact, that life is not for everyone, it's not for people like me. But where else can I go?

Regardless, I will keep on writing and post something here at least once a year. My reviews were often very long and detailed (exhibit A, exhibit B), so from now on I'll be writing shorter reviews. In other words, readable reviews. Either way, does it really matter? Nobody reads any of this. And to counter that, I'd say, it doesn't matter. I'll keep writing anyway.
