Lockdown

General
Two months of the year typically suck. August and February. I'm not talking weather, just that bad things tend to gravitate to these months for me. The fact that my sinuses are still in revolt probably doesn't do much to help things.
Depression has already set in this month. Its been very hard to motivate to do anything in the evenings this week. There's nothing I want to do. I just don't have the affect for it. "it" being talking, drawing, responding to E-mails, etc. Coming home and going to sleep isn't a healthy response to thing for me. I can't even manage enough interest to go to a move despite several in the theaters that I would probably want to see.
I was starting to make some progress on getting drawings done, having just about finished everything off, but when I've tried to sit down and draw the last two days I can't muster the interest. When I've doodled its come out good too, and the last two pics I posted to FA weren't too bad.
There's some other things going on too, but I'd either not mention them here (like to keep professional life divided from the art side) or else they might be mis-construed.
Just going to go quiet a while.

Just take it one day at a time... and take it easy.
Unfortunately, many of the problems are long term planning stuff.
Unfortunately most of the problems are ones that exist beyond what talking can do. Some financial, some personal, some just a matter of where I live.

If you feel a desire to draw but aren't able to come up with things yourself, try asking others for things to draw. If it's so bad you don't feel like drawing, I always found having fun with clay or something similar worked nicely.
Oh I can understand. for me its empire-building games. When feeling things are out of of my control, controlling an empire has a lot of appeal.
Problem is in the past drawing usually happens when I'm feeling good. I'm trying to train myself to go draw when I feel down. Its a lot more productive.
I'm not as nice a person as you think I am I believe.
