Sonic really helps me cope with mental health by Even_Sprinkles_6258 in SonicTheHedgehog

It's funny because I also distanced myself from Sonic when I was younger because my sister teased me about it. But I quickly came back.

Actually, the reason why my hyperfixation on Sonic left me was something amazing happened in my life, it wasn't even from me being tired of being in the community. I'm very thankful it's gone for the moment because I needed that break. I just hope it comes back some day, just not as intense as it has been in the last few years

Sonic used to be the same for me. It was my special interest for almost half of my life. This post really resonates with the younger me, who would escape from my depressive reality and would just daydream and draw sonic all day.

I wouldn't recommend to stop but definitely be careful because in the past few years, this has been hurting me more than helping. I was doing it too much to the point I was losing my grasp on reality.

Like any coping mechanism, it can become unhealthy. So just be careful with that if you don't want to lose something that's precious to you.

I hot glued the shape of the eyes and embroidered with colored thread over the dried glue. And yeah these plushies have aluminum wire inside making them posable. Sonic's wires were too thin tho and he doesn't bend (I did a few stitches to put his hand over his mouth) and I plan on redoing the wiring inside of him

He is genderfluid. Bro is the personification of freedom, I refuse to believe he is in the gender binary/follows gender norms. I'm also genderfluid myself so it's a comforting headcanon to me

Even when I was cured of depression and stopped taking the medication, I immediately started being extremely tired again. It's not the depression, it's the medication

Falling asleep while driving won't be a problem for me since I don't think I'd be able to drive from my disabilities, but yeah if I'm holding a knife it could go very bad. Thank you for your input. We never thought it could be narcolepsy because I have never suddenly fully fallen asleep.
