Why do I start feeling nervous and shitty and depressed when I haven't taken pictures for a few days. Am I fucking addicted to this shit? Is it healthy to be addicted to something. How do I stop this? Jesus Christ my life is spiraling before my eyes. What have I done

Because you're a photographer and photographers like taking photos and humans in general like to do things they... like?
>How do I stop this?
Fuck that. Lean into it. Do a picture-a-day project for a year. When that year's up, keep going. Take a photo every day for a decade. You'll get really good at photography.

it wouldnt take much, just thinning out that negroid nose and plucking those bushy eyebrows. At least she got rid of that unibrow

not quite the same thing though I have talked to several mechanics who have said that their job ruined wrenching on hobby project cars for them. There's few hobby teachers / doctors, and if there were would you go to a doctor who operated out of a converted dining room?
after doing something all day for a living, the last thing you want to do is that same thing in an attempt to unwind at the end of the day. After selling cameras, lenses, and accessories to lobotomites all day, the last thing you want to do is pick up your camera and go out and shoot.

Just regular existential anxiety, with photography your latest attempt of staving off the fear of death and the realization you are living a truly meaningless life, not only not contributing to the betterment of the world, but a resource dump.
Just taking the photos is of course not enough, they need to be good too. This, you keep telling yourself will come in time, but it won't, until you sit down and really think about what you're doing, if you're even capable of that.

Gosh.
Grimes can fuck me so hard.
Her music is life.

She's perfect as she is.
I used to average 500 pics a month. I don't think I've taken 500 pics since Jan 2016...

She look 14, we love it.

You'll never want a project car ever or want to modify/touch your own car.
