I started blogging on these sites back in 2017 due to unemployment due to
autism. My folks didn't understand me, or at least I felt they didn't. So I started a blog talking about my issues with autism and employment. That is
, before chronic illness and chronic fatigue took over. I'm constantly drinking
energy drinks for energy (sugar-free)
I also embarked on a vlogging challenge to help me achieve my goals, like building my first gaming rig and getting a DSLR camera. Almost 100 days in, I became burnt out. I realized that my life isn’t interesting enough to sustain a vlogging challenge like that. If I were able to get out more, such as visiting a water park in the summer, the challenge might have been easier.
I've come to realize that I'm more of a gamer than a vlogger.
I've decided to return to what I used to do, participating in vlogging challenges like VEDA (in April and August), Vlogtober, and Vlogmas. I can start filming content in March, which gives me a month to prepare. I’ll store the videos I create for YouTube for the challenge, or I could embed the links here if I prefer not to do the vlogging challenges. When I'm not uploading to YouTube, I can post gaming content to Threespeak since my content on Dbuzz hasn’t been doing well.
This approach should provide me with a much-needed cool-down period. I prefer creating gaming content because gaming is my specialty. Making a challenge for content that I only occasionally produced led to my burnout; I ran low on ideas and struggled to offer anything different to my viewers.
