Hiyas guys!
Just a quick update.
At the beginning of this month, I started taking aantidepressants again, because the voices in my head got way to loud. It's been three weeks since then and I'm finally feeling some changes. The voices aren't as loud anymore and I feel a lot calmer.
It also helped to step away from social media and the internet in general for a while because I tend to compare my art to better artists in an unhealthy way.
So my mental health seems to get better now. Finally.
Only downside to the medication is the fact that it also affects my creativity. I feel less creative and coming up with ideas is way harder than before. I know this symptom from a few years back and I know tht it should get better but right now it's an uncomfortable feeling =/ Currently I'm kinda forcing myself to draw until it gets better. But compared to suicidal thoughts, I guess it's an okayish price to pay. :P
Quick art info:
I'm going to offer my annual advent calendar commissions again. I will post the template and all information around the end of the week because I'd like to start working on them early this year. ;)
Thanks for your support!

Diese Medikamente beruhigen deine Gedanken, leider ist die Nebenwirkung das es nicht nur deine Gedanken über das Leben sind, sondern auch deine Kreativität. Du lernst damit auch umzugehen, weil dich deine Kunst mit am Leben erhält.
Drückt die Lila Löwin ganz doll.
Das wird sicher wieder ein sehr Katzenlastiger Adventskalender.
you take care of yourself mirri! you're great!
and only art if and when you want, dont force yaself to do something ya dont want to (a good general advice for many a thing but meep)
I'm sure your creativity will come back again soon and during that time.. take it slow and make sure you get enough rest.
Also.. I'm sure there are a lot of people who can throw some cute (or gory) ideas at your hamster ascendent ;)
