Has depression or some other event effect your mood for drawing?

My ex and I drew a lot together over the spring and summer, and I loved every moment of it, and I actually felt good about myself and my pics. Then we broke up, and I don't draw as much as I used too anymore, even when I got back to school. I know this sort of thing has happened before the relationship, but this might be the first time it's been this severe.

Is this normal or am I just being a faggot?

You're just being a faggot, OP. Just fucking draw if you want to draw.

its pretty normal. one of the symptoms of depression is loosing interest in things you used to enjoy. i actually deal with depression myself and it's slowed down my pace in art but im still trying to draw daily

Bipolar here, if Im having a bad day I can barely do basic exercises. So on my god days I look at what i have to do and work extra hard knowing that i could have a period around the corner where i won't be able to do anything worthwhile.

I get hormonal anxiety&depression, same with my sister, so we know what depression feels like. runs in the family.

since I know it's hormonal, I can easily tell myself it's irrational so I try to solve it:

- I go on a run, making sure that I force myself to get a sprint in. if im too depressed to do that, I force myself on stair masters at the gym

- usually feeling a bit better. next I sure my music is uplifting and energetic. even if it's one song on repeat, I try to get myself hyped and distracted

- draw brainlessly for 30 min to music I'm enjoying

- socialize, get my mind off it

I think the exercise is key for me, but yeah, fight it the best you can. also, omega 3's really help and there's good research backing it up.

good luck, hope that gives you some help.
