My Journey since break, and the Deletion of my Deviantart

My Journey

When I first went on break, I made the decision by myself, not caused by anything, to be better. I went on a huge journey, spiritually, mindfully, and mentally. I logged off of Discord, I gave my Deviantart account to my dad, and I signed out of everything. Basically I disconnected myself from the online world all together. I went on a journey to improve my well being. I've been doing this long before my final hiatus, I've just never told the online world, as they don't need to know everything. I've been improving my temper, and I've been focusing on friendships. I've learned not to vent without permission, and I've been able to prevent myself from shutting out. I even just recently started doing personal training to get the masculine body I want. Being transmasculine is one of the biggest, if not THE biggest battles of my life, and right now it's really hard. I'm not comfortable in my current body, and with training, I'll look less fat, and more masculine. And I'll be happy in my body, and I'll be happier in general. Hopefully my chest will shrink! I believe I've had a huge improvement. I even got myself a partner! My friends and my partner have been my pillars through all of this, they have been amazing support, and I'm so happy to have them.
Hex, Koko, Lani, Issac, JR, Xander, Kayoss, and Sapphire, thank you so much, you guys are my best friends, and I couldn't have made it this far without your incredible love and support.
However, some people on the Internet don't believe me. They say I never change and I never will. They make crappy accusations of past situations that weren't nearly as bad as they originally were, or the context is completely different. After I saw one YouTube video, I let myself be angry once for the amount of bullshit in it, and left a comment. I've since turned off notifications since so they don't get the satisfaction.
I've learned to protect myself.
But I've also had so...so many anxiety, panic, and heart attacks from all of this building stress. I've come to the point where I don't care if people believe I've improved or not, those people aren't worth the time. I only focus on the positive, now.It's been so damn hard...

After a lot of thinking, I've decided that in 2025 I will delete my deviantart account. Not deactivate, deleted. Wiped. Gone. DeviantArt is a terrible platform. I was hesitant to delete DeviantArt because of how popular I've gotten, but I've truly met some of the worst people in my life on that platform. Plus a majority of DeviantArt community was not even supporting me and wanted my presence for their benefit, hence Im done with requests. And it's full of people with nasty fetishes and p*rn addiction. I'm leaving the bad things behind me, and getting a fresh new start.

The Deletion of my Deviantart account

What's next after that?

I will never come back to DeviantArt. Never again. I will, however, make a Bluesky account. When? Idk yet. I'm still taking a break, and I'm still on my journey. Idk if I'll be back for another few months. When that Bluesky account is made, it won't be under the name NeroOfficial. I don't want the creeps of my Deviantart watchers finding me. Plus, have you heard of the handy new feature called block lists? They put people on specific lists (examples: trump supporters, racist people, anti-lgbtq) and if you subscribe to the list, everyone on that list is immediately blocked! How cool and convenient is that! All the trump supporters, sexist people, racist people, toxic people, fetish lovers, NSFW addicts, Nazis, anti furries, anti lgbtq, and creeps on Bluesky! The list goes on! I'll post my art on Bluesky, and I'll even start researching Fursuit resources, since I'm a furry! I'm also gonna make a VTuber model from scratch by myself, and hopefully make big progress on my FNF mod! Boy, 2025 should be great!!This is Hachi in 2025. 2025 has been somehow worse than 2024.

Until then...

The only way you'll hear from me is through my discord server, The Shark Tank, linked in my Main Card. I am not on discord, but you can reach me through SplatoonQueen95 (Koko) and Hex, they can send your message to me. But they will only send your message if it's positive, trusting, or non-threatening. Anything else will be instructed to refuse or block. I also have steam, idk if I have notifications for people sending me steam messages. Other than that there is no other way to contact me other than Skype [private], Bluesky [unlinked everywhere], Discord, Google chat [private], and Toyhouse [limited to accounts only].Until then, hydrate, enjoy your life, respect my boundaries, and stay safe.

Goodbye,
Deviantart.

This is the message I had planned to post on deviantart. Since It is now deleted, I will place it here.

Disclaimer: before you comment, please keep in mind that all hate comments will be deleted and/or completely ignored, and please keep in mind I have new pronouns: Xi/Xim/Xis/Ximself. Please respect my pronouns.
Comments will be turned on so people can say things in a POSITIVE RESPECTFUL WAY.𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝Hello, everyone! Happy Late New Year! It's been a while, hasn't it?
I'll explain!
But first...
I've got a very important announcement to make, my biggest one yet.
You've probably heard this from Koko or Kayoss, but if you haven't...
On February 9th, I will be deleting my Deviantart account.
That is one month from now.
Why?
I have had too many terrible experiences on this site, and I finally have decided it's time to go. DeviantArt should not have been my first social media platform. It's honestly the worst platform I could have chosen. When I've told my irl friends about my deviantart, they all go "oh god...not DeviantArt..."
Now I see what they all meant.
I've been bullied, betrayed, manipulated, scarred by the lack of censoring on images not marked as mature... and even scammed!
Yes, I made friends here, there's no doubting that.
But I've made more enemies then friends, I've been dragged through the mud, I've been beaten like crazy. People have made multiple alt accounts to get by me blocking them just for them to send hate over things blown WAY out of proportion. One specific occurrence I will never fully recover from, but I've moved on. I've broken out of the chains, and I'm living my life how I want to, and I'm damn happy. I'm moving on with my life, with my new interests and hobbies, and I'll continue to be myself. I'm proud of who I've become over my hiatus. I've come a long way, and I've become more composed and calm and careful. But my trust will never be repaired, unfortunately.
Before you say "but Hachi...it's only been five months!", I've been working on myself before my leave. The Internet does not have to know everything about my life.

You'll probably see me lurking in a StickyBM stream!Until we meet again,
さようなら～!- Hachi 🦈
