    I'm sorry you're feeling like this </3 I'm feeling very similar myself, and it saddens me to know that you're suffering in the same way... offers hugs

    That aside, I love your clean lines and shapes, and the dripping itself is done wonderfully. I try that so often with my stuff, but I end up removing it because I'm far too picky >.< This is a good visual teaching tool for me: don't be so damn picky!

      depression is a big part of my life, I just have to learn to cope with it. Vent art is definitely one of my coping skills that I put into play when I can.

      HA I am a total perfectionast, so I can spend hours on something to make sure it's right. I'm much worse when it comes to Commissions, to me it needs to be perfect , they did pay for it after all. But with vent art I'm usually pretty mellow and don't care too much on what it looks like

        Same here :/ I've been dealing with it... my whole life I suppose. These meds I'm on help some, but I know they'll never make it stop being a problem entirely.

        I seem to make my best work when I'm upset, for some odd reason. You'd think in an upset state, one would screw up more, but apparently that's the only time I like what I make >.< though I won't do comms when I'm upset, as I'm afraid my sketchy things wouldn't be up to par with them, or they wouldn't like whatever style emerged from my upset art'ing.

          Same. I've had depression since I was really little. I used to be on medication but for the past...two years? I haven't. I didn't really like being on anti-depression meds, they made me feel worse than better, like I was more numb and lifeless on them.

          my best work is when I haven't gotten a lot of sleep xD idk I just make good stuff when I'm sleep deprived,
          but a goods night sleep? I feel unmotivated and stumped lol. I'm such a weirdo lmao

            I think I started my SSRI regimen in...2010? 2011? I went thru a couple different meds until Paxil apparently cooperated with my body. Now I'm wanting to get off of it because of the terrible withdrawal side effects @____@ Sometimes they'll start up within hours of missing a dose, and sometimes I can get away with a full day. I think I'd be alright without it if my Lithium gets boosted from 600mg to 900mg+ (I used to be on 900 but tl;dr later my psych dropped me as a patient as I hadn't seen her in a year, so i had to go to my family doctor, but couldn't do so until the beginning of this year because my obamacare wouldn't kick in until then).

            Goodness, I don't sleep ever.. maybe that's why I find my work shitty so often XD I'm never awake enough to appreciate what I've created.

              ick, I remember having really bad side affects from Zoloft after I quit cold turkey. but that was the last medication I was on, I was on Prozac before then and a couple different ones before that one.
              it just doesn't seem to work with me well, I have a weird high tolerance for a lot of medications. I can take benadryl and not get tired, and stuff like that.
