You need not only support but some medical help.
About arts- you shall love process, not result.
In 95% result is shit BUT I like to do shit. When it is done - it is no more your problem, what done- is done.
This is only way to be artist if you have no skills/time/resourses.

These are especially difficult times and we're more isolated than ever. It's worth sticking around to try and make things a little better for others and see what unfolds in the years to come.

Also I saw your art about hesitating to come out because of concerns over what your family would think - I hope things are going ok on that end and they are being supportive. Coming out shouldn't be anything to feel ashamed of.

If you need to talk to someone on the phone, there are people at 1-800-273-8255 who are available and want you to call and talk to them - don't hesitate to give it a try!

You need to enjoy what you're doing, not do something expecting others to enjoy for you. Do for yourself, improve for yourself, only you can do this.

It's especially hard if you can't be around the ones you care about.

Sorry. One can only hope that things improve.

Life is a journey and despite how difficult or unfair life gets, its better to keep the ball rolling rather than calling it quits. People can spend years being stuck in a dark place with no way out but believe me when I say that there will be rays of happiness. May not last long but that's all the more reason to enjoy them for when they finally show up.

In terms of art, people will never be happy with their stuff. They will always find flaws in their art but that's a good thing, just means you will improve in the next piece. If you fail to notice then you'll just become an arrogant asshole. Think of it like a meal from McDonalds, despite how nice the food looks, it'll never look anything like what the real deal is. Everyone has this problem and there's nothing to be sad about :)

Hope this helps

Was thinking like this yesterday. That nobody cares. I feel like you will find the people that care by sticking around, by trying. Look at all the people who responded and or reacted to your post. That's some signs that people care. I hope your mood improves and that you continue on doing what you love.
