Description This is not a vent or anything. I just listened to a depressing song and I had to test out my new computer which I got a few days ago. And, well, I'm good at drawing sad/depressing/dark pictures so why not make one

Also, as you can see, I tried to paint. Digitally. To be honest, I really like how this turned out! I should paint more..

Overall I'm really happy with my new gaming computer which I use for drawing and shcoolwork. I feel like I should try animating too now (my other computer was old and slow so no good programs worked there), but I don't know any programs I can get for free. I tried Firealpaca and didn't like it. Any suggestions?

This.is.absolutely.stunning!

Having battled with depression and numbness for most of summer I really feel the emotion of this picture. I try to act happy around my parents to not ruin their vacation days.

Sorry for this negativity, love the painting ♡

Thank you!

I'm sorry to hear that. Have you tried walking in nature? If you can, of course. I struggled with depression for years. Things started to go better once I decided to go outside more - even if I didn't feel like it. Walking in nature (forest for example) worked the best for me, because I like silence and places with no people. I found beauty around me again, I sat on a rooftop and watched sunset and moon rise. Making myself do physical exercises helped too. It kept me away from bad thoughts. Once I found myself having a depressed feeling, I forced myself to do squats, push-ups etc. As the time went on, I began to like it and depression faded away.
I know that your case might not be that, well, easy, if I can say so. But these things can help, maybe just a little bit. And even this is better than not at all. Stay strong!

Thanks for advice! It really means a lot when someone cares.

I will try my best, but my depression usually includes serious breakdowns when I am not able to even stand up from bed. Walking in nature seems like good idea though.

You're welcome! I try my best to help people because I know what it feels like to be alone. If you want somebody to talk to, you can always send me a note. I will try my best to help. <3
