I’ve been debating on posting this or not, but I’ve gotten comments from a few people surprised to see me or who thought I had quit. I figured I should make a post about me disappearing, but still occasionally showing up in comments.

First, I never officially quit janitor! Quite frankly I still use my own bots and others, even if it’s only for a few minutes. If I ever officially quit janitor for good, I’ll make an announcement post, open up bot definitions and leave my account up. I understand the pain of your favorite bot creator deleting their account and I would not want to do that to y’all.

My main reason for my lack of bot uploading is my mental health and lack of motivation. I won't go into too many details, but a combination of having a major surgery in November and my poor mental health previously cause me to spiral. I don't regret the surgery, but the recovery was intense and the recovery itself cause me to become isolated for about a month, which was kinda my breaking point. However, as of posting this, I'm currently having my mental health treated and I'm medicated!

I won't give every diagnosis I got, but the ones affecting me the most were anxiety (generalized and social, yes, I got both lmao I wish I was joking) and ADHD. I’m on meds now and I’m starting to see major improvements! I'm the healthiest physically and mentally I've ever been in my life. I'm really proud of the progress I've made.

Anyways, about the bots. I don't think I'll ever go back to uploading as frequently as I did. I'm not quitting, I'm still interested in bot creation, but even with having my improved mental health, I'm working full time and I'm going back to college. I just won't have as much free time as I used to. However, I'll still be uploading here and there!

The only situation where I'd outright quit would be due to age verification. Age verification has been spreading like wildfire, and if I was ever in a position between choosing my privacy and bot making, I'd choose my privacy. If I couldn't find a way around it, I'd quit janitor. As much as I love this site, I'm not giving my ID so I can pretend like I can have a healthy friendships and romantic relationships through the bots lol. I am more than old enough to be on this site, I'm 22, but I sure as hell don't want my ID to get leaked in a data breach or have it connected to sites like this.

During the time I haven't uploaded, I noticed I have over 500 followers now! Thank you all for your support. If anyone has any recommendations for what I could do to celebrate, I'm all ears (or all spleens). I was thinking about translating my most popular bots into Spanish, since I do speak it (Soy uno de los "no sabo" chicos jaja. Pero voy a ser lo mejor que puedo).
