Giving Up
a year ago
I'm probably giving up on drawing, not that many of you care to begin with. I just can't find the time and or motivation to do so anymore. I try and try again and again to break this seemingly neverending cycle of self hate and doubt, but I can't do it anymore. My uploads keep becoming too inconsistent and my art keeps getting worse and worse it seems and I'm not gonna let it continue to feed my depression, so chances are, I'm just done. I've tried everything at this point and nothing works. Drawing used to be fun for me; now it's something I dread and fear to do because of how my mind processes things. I can't find enjoyment from it anymore. It either has to be perfect or I'm not happy with it and it just makes me discouraged to continue drawing or doing anything related to it. It's a toxic cycle that has finally broke me. I can't seem to improve anymore and that is just frustrating and it makes me feel inadequate. I have no right to call myself artist anymore. So enjoy what mediocre bits of art I've posted, because as I've said before, chances are I'm not going to be posting anymore.
I'm sorry that drawing devolved into something that brings you misery and being stuck such a cycle cause of it, I hope you get better.
And good luck to whatever you do next.
Hope you're feeling better soon!
