What´s up everyone?

Hey guys n´gals and everthing inbetween. How´s it going?
Just thought I should try and uh... talk a bit about what´s happening with me and my life, or why I´m hardly posting or creating art, to anyone who cares.
I really don´t know if anyone cares, cause besides trying to tell people who´s art I love on here, ...that I love their art, I´ve not been talking on FA at all. So here goes.
So... I have been diagnosed with Dysthymia a couple years ago (depression as an artist... what a shocker right? lol) and I can´t really get out of it.
Some days have been and still are very rough, but I´m glad I think, that these dark days didn´t escalate too much. After all I´m still here.
I´m taking medication to dull it, but it´s still hard for me, to even do the most simple things in my day to day life.
Drawing included. It´s been one of the most complicated things for me to get a grip on or kinda... deal with it? Sometimes I wanna draw and then I can actually get something really small done.
But most of the times I can´t draw at all. Which sucks.
I´m frustrated beyond belief, that I cannot kinda "control" or get over it and just draw what I want.
The whole thing makes me feel helpless, sad and angry, so I mostly try and ignore or distract myself with other things like playing games, to prevent myself from falling down that hole too deep again.
Still... really sucks that I am this way and might never get better. I have a lot of other shitty things going on in the health department as well (might be suffering from a form of ADHD for example), but
I feel like my depression is the one really hindering/preventing me from getting into creative moods nowadays, or rather for years, the most.
So yeah. That´s been bascially why I haven´t posted much and won´t post as much in the future as well. I´ll try to get better and post more anyway, but I really don´t know what the future brings
or what my life looks like in the next few years. I´ll try and update a bit more for anyone who cares and/or want´s to know why I´ve not been doing much here.
That said... have a great day everyone and see you soon <3

But don't worry about feeling like you HAVE to post and HAVE to draw, we're here because we love your stuff! Not because we EXPECT things from you!
Please keep taking care of yourself!
