Hey Babes,
Gonna vent I guess, but I’m just feeling discouraged about art and life lately. Family life’s been kind of a mess, I’m going to be returning to the job I hate in a couple days (and sooner than initially expected because I was scheduled to work the day of the con I was supposed to go to), and I genuinely do not know if Candy Cadavers is going to perform as well as I initially hoped. I don’t want to be a doomer about it, but at the rate we’re moving and at the energy level I’ve had lately, I just don’t know if it’s going to happen.
Plus my elderly cat is kind of on the decline and that’s been concerning to me too. Not to even mention the fact that the world feels like it’s falling apart more and more every passing day.
So that being said I feel like shit rn and the exhaustion is very real. So even though I’ve been off I haven’t had much will or energy to draw. I don’t even feel like my art’s really *worth* making anyway tbh… I don’t know if I need a break or if I need to push myself out of this bleak mood by doing what I just don’t feel like doing (ie: drawing) but, for sure I am exhausted. I’m just hoping I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Sending you big, big hugs! Hang in there and stay strong! In my personal opinion, I think your art is very much WORTH it and I do hope you'll be able to feel that passion and energy to draw again soon! Everything feels awful and you can easily lose interest in things you genuinely enjoy and love when you're down in the dumps like this! Please don't give up because of it! I'm sure it'll pass soon but until then, please take care and take things easy! We'll be right here by your side!! <3

Thak you very much Aoi... Things have just been incredibly rough lately, but they're slowly getting better. I'm still feeling a little discouraged about my work, but at least I am slowly gathering the will to want to draw and make art again, so there's that at the very least :)
