ă…¤Hello! > ă…¤ My name is Salty/Drift, I'm a freelance artist and a furry, those being my main two hobbies. This page just general information about me 'n my online presence. I do artwork as a form of income as well, as I one day hope it can be a real form of employment for myself <3 I'm always learning and upping my knowledge.
| like | dislike |
|---|---|
| Monsters n Robots, music, oc making, movies, video games, the works-- | Dont EVER say the word 'tsundere' around me. I don't like most anime due to things most watchers just gloss over. Anime I DO like is rare... DNI zoos and pedos, I cant believe I have to SAY THAT. Anything to do with Vivziepop and her work I EXTREMELY dislike. The reasons why should be obvious. |
ㅤdisclaimer > ㅤ ㅤ🍉 Below is just some medias and other things to give some more insight on my interests and fixations!Though, the reason there is a disclaimer is because of that little "disabilities" button, giving a brief rundown of my mental and social challenges. It includes what I'm uncomfortable with in general. I am no way am I saying that one must memorize it. It may seem silly, but I would rather it be there so that this online space of ours is a safer place for you, me, and others around. Thank you, if you took the time to read them <3

my disorders
Firstly, I want to explain again that this is only here to accommodate for the online spaces that I put myself in. For those who are interested, I have put together a short list of my disorders and what they are! Below that are the unfortunate triggers that come with them.Courtesy to Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic for definitions!
| Major Depression Disorder | Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. Also called major depressive disorder or clinical depression, it affects how you feel, think and behave and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems. |
| Anxiety Disorder | anxiety disorders frequently have intense, excessive and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations. Often, anxiety disorders involve repeated episodes of sudden feelings of intense anxiety and fear or terror that reach a peak within minutes (panic attacks). |
| CPTSD | Complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD, C-PTSD or cPTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop if you experience chronic (long-term) trauma. |
my known triggers [and explanation]
Any triggers (I always feel odd when calling it a trigger..) for me often have to do with things heavily associated with past events that contributed to my Anxiety/C-PTSD. It can be put together that these two disorders often come hand in hand, and the depression having a major 'affect', so to say. Though, I've gotten a lot better at regulating my reactions/emotions to things in the past years, so these things have gotten more manageable. But some outbursts of extreme paranoia and relapsing depression simply can't be handled so swiftly. But not to worry, especially if you're a friend of mine, I know how to make sure I'm not taking anybody down with me LOL - Other than this sorta lengthy explanation, the following short list is just something one should be mindful of when speaking with me!
| MAJOR GORE | Makes me physically ill. I can handle very basic injuries, but anything too descriptive or visual makes me extremely nauseas. |
| Nicotine/Marijuana | For myself, it's the smell and any major relations to it. Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, vapes, chewing Tobacco, etc- all of it. I grew up with a lot of second hand smoking and because of a few IRL situations, I just do not like discussing it and if I can help it, looking at any of it. The brief mention of it doesn't bother me, but its rather in depth conversation or anything revolving around it. |
| NSFW | I feel like this is a given... but just because I'm an adult and not asexual doesn't mean one should be open about this with me. I like to be private about it, as there have been too many situations where MINORS have gotten too comfortable with it and doing so around me or even trying to talk me into things. Especially because I make NSFW artwork. I tend not to interact with minors much if I can help it, anyway. The new generation is horrifying and media literacy is dead. |
