I paid to bump up and then felt badly about it, and it’s going to expire on January 1. The point is more about the amount of effort, the lack of reciprocity, and the stress and depression it’s causing me that Substack does not. There were many reasons. But I absolutely do not do pyramid schemes anymore and since I believe that’s what this has become, I’m stepping away.

Thanks so much for your support. I just can’t handle being on here right now it’s too overwhelming and there’s a lack of honesty and it feels like old trauma surfacing and Substack isn’t doing that to me because the structure is different.

I don’t know if that makes sense. You’re awesome, so keep being awesome.
