I'mmmmm going on a break.
Added 2023-06-30 21:19:28 +0000 UTCSO. Y'all have obviously noticed I haven't been drawing much for like 3 months. I'm just not feeling art right now.
It's weird to say. I've done art my entire life, but right now? Maybe I'm burned out, idk. I tried to force myself to. I even thought that anxiety was the reason I couldn't draw. After all, anxiety was the reason I wouldn't do a lot of things in my life. So in addition to going to the gym, I started going to therapy. I started anxiety meds. It hasn't helped. I'm in better shape physically and mentally than I have been in a very long time, yet my desire to draw isn't coming back. Maybe this is just regular burnout, or maybe it's something longterm.
But either way, I need to be open with y’all. I'm taking a break, idk for how long, but I'm gonna try a month first. I won't take it hard if you leave. I need to rediscover why I draw or something. Trying to force myself has made it impossible to continue.
TLDR; I'm going on indefinite hiatus, I'll draw if and when I want. Feel free to leave, I seriously appreciate all the support up til now, and I hope you'll come back when I get things sorted!!

Sometimes healing means doing things that seem regressive or losing capabilities as higher functions become can become untenable when mind rebuilds its foundation. These things return in time. I think you will return to art when the time is right for you.
