Did anyone miss me?
8 years ago
I've been absent a while with work and having my friend back and having a money crisis and my sai trial is up but due to the crisis I mentioned I am broke, again, medical bills insurance, general adult shit is getting in my way not only literally but mentally I feel drained from stress so much so even the most simple things just feel like effort, and things I live to do feel more like an obligation than a hobby, I'm just in a rut I guess, but I think I can get out of it, once I'm not so strapped for cash and paranoid about losing my home and everything I've worked for, then I will get on those commissions I planned to open and make my own T.O.S
I have a second job now so things should become a little easier, I just need to get back to drawing, but I feel pressured to start again.. the last few attempts at drawing I made we're awful I'm trying to draw a couple characters interacting for a commission but it's not working, the space, the shapes the background nothing, even the lines were shit and I got really frustrated with it so I'm going to come back to it I just need a minute. It's not payed for yet or anything like that I shouldn't stress, I just hate letting people down I feel like I'm just good at being a flop, I really don't know why, people like me, but maybe that's the problem I feel like I have to be the structure the rock the steady person who takes care of things like magic... but I'm sure that isn't the case I know my people wouldn't put me on a pedestal, I know that nothing is really expected but idk what if it is I feel like I have to be this person who's so hyped up about, this awesome arty girl but I can't always be that... sometimes I wanna stop...but then I feel useless . I wish I wasn't so up and down like this.
Sorry for such a long journal just had to belt it out, what's in my head..

any cures for art block?
I need ta just not be so critical of my doodles i guess?
Thank you SO much, I'm gonna try and draw just stuff, not for anyone, not a sona just draw
maybe I will do some traditional stuff see what people think, been trying to doodle and nothing looks write it doesnt look like my style if that makes sense? its really alien to me.
I'm optimistic that this second job will help at least a bit.
maybe I will get my chill back.
