Flosstube #2: My Maynia Attempt & coming out of my depression bubble

TW: depression & medication

Hello again! I am completely overwhelmed with the support and welcome from my first video. This update was filmed before I ever uploaded my WIP parade. I am so grateful and thankful to all those who viewed, liked, commented, and/or subscribed. I appreciate each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart. My main goal was to reach out and connect with other stitchers and I think I can call that a success! I hope you all enjoy this update video. Timestamps below and chapters will be included if you need/want to skip ahead, no harm, no foul.
THANK YOU!

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or find me on IG @stitchnbooks and DM me there.
