It depends..what do you think?

I see beauty in your drawing, but none on social anxiety, thats why I wanted to ask you how did you get to that conclusion, just curiosity
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah. Well..social anxiety to me,at least, is the negative thoughts I get that might not even be there in the first place. Overthinking. Self doubt. Thus those black "clouds". I get very nervous around people, especially when there is a lot of people. It's suffocating.It makes you feel small and so, you isolate yourself. Idk.... am I making any sense? Am I answering your question correctly?

yeah, you described perfectly social anxiety, that's how I feel too, unfortunately. But I felt curious about the title of this drawing,Β
because it's named "Social Anxiety, Fear And The Beauty Of It" and I think its a very enigmatic and magical title,
so I just wanted to ask you about the part that says "And The Beauty Of It" because for me its difficult to find
beauty in the social anxiety and the constant fear everyday, so that's what I wanted to ask you why did you chose that title for your amazing drawing. But there's no need of answering it, maybe I'm just overthinking too XDΒ

Aaah I see. Nah man it's cool. With fear and social anxiety, comes the chance for us to have courage. The courage to overcome it. We can choose to be brave and screw those negative thoughts and be who you wanna be. It's hard. It's very hard and I struggle too. But we need to try. Some times we don't feel like trying and that's ok too. But I can't and won't just sit here and let it control me and how I live my life. And I think that's....the beauty of it I guess. It's not depicted in the drawing but it more of.....a little something to think of. The courage and strength we secretly have to overcome.

incredible!!! yeah thats what I was looking for! now i can see your drawing with new perspective, and i absolutely love it.Β

Wow, such a gorgeous, evocative description! I suffer from social anxiety myself; you capture the emotion with such clarity and finesse. Fear is hauntingly rich. It adds depth and meaning to life, but it also detracts from psychological well-being-- a fraught concept, which you deal with delicately in this drawing. I can't wait to see more of your art!

Heh, really glad you like it. Yea, it can be hard. Sometimes, "going out of your comfort zone" is just not that easy. But, we need to try.

You know what...looks about right. Spot on actually. Dang...xD Even the visual balance of: you, that black thing whatever you choose that to be is, and the flowers. To me it's kind of a yin-yang thing. There's always a trade off, sucks though you can't really choose to go for it or not. Sometimes not up to you to decide. It's kinda like failures. You should never leave a failure just as a failure, then you're the failure. There's always a possibility of turning it good, and usually some good already present for taking. Like what the hell would i do without my anxiety? I dunno. This is almost somehow even better, somehow.

Damn. "Β You should never leave a failure just as a failure, then you're the failure.". That's something I'm going to remember for a long time. Wise words,man. Wise words.

Oh, i guess good that it does something for you. Gee, i am way too stocked on anything that ranges from cheesy online quotes, to stuff that makes you wanna go to kitchen, sit down under the table in the darkness, and just try to inhale the confusion through your ears. I like to check up on them to remember how much i am not doing what i set out to do
π: 0 β©: 1
Just make sure you clean your ears, you know, so confusion can enter and leave easily. π But good luck tho...on doing the things you need to do.

Well that's beautiful, but my anxiety doesn't look like that :
I sweat and it s disgusting,
I don't have such a pretty vision of it,
but same as you it's painful (:

Hey, just hang in there alright? Stay strong. No type anxiety is beautiful but we just need to push through it.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah of course, I m not sad of it don't worry xD it was funny to see how you draw something that can be disgusting that s all,
I thing it's really beautiful, that's make some people more "sensible" to the world (sry for my english^^) well thanks for your reply !

No prob!Β Β I just thought of turning something mentally limiting into something positive. It very nice to see that someone likes Β it or somehow relates to it. Thanks for the comment tho. Really really appreciate it. It's nice to meet you.Β Β

I like your vision of life, some people are drawing with their feelings and you re that kind of person.
It's hard to talk about our feelings or the vision of the universe/life/society we have or maybe itβs just annoying, but these people would try another way to express themselves.
A lot of people will not understand your work, they are going to say "thatβs beautiful" even if they don't know what you have done.Β
Well, I become happy when someone compliment my work (human is a narcissistic creature) but it's hard today to find someone who is able to understand your drawing.
Incomprehension is painful sometimes, so when I see someone having trouble with life in general, I like to prove that they are not alone.
Same, nice to meet you ^^

Aah, it's nice, how you view life. It's true, how many of them just admire the outer look of my drawings or any type of art in general. Heck, even my friends do that. But once in awhile I'll come across someone like you and we share our opinions on life. It's nice. I wish you the best in lifeΒ Β

my friends do it too xD
thank you, I hope the same for you ^^
have a nice day !

This is really amazing . For me I sometimes hate social too.

Hey thanks!Β Β And yea, I know the feel.
π: 0 β©: 0
This art is so meaningful that it really hurts
π: 0 β©: 1
I....don't know if I should thank you or not. But yea, it's something I struggle with so I thought why not turn it into art. I'm glad it means something to you.
π: 0 β©: 1
I didn't mean it as a criticism. I'm unfortunately familiar with feeling which you illustrated and I think that you portrayed them really accurate. Looking at the picture is saddening, but it's also really cathartic.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Aah, I see. It can be quite limiting. But I really do try to push myself....you know. But sometimes it can get quite overwhelming. I do wish you the best of luck.
π: 0 β©: 1
I understand. But it's good that you try to put these emotions on paper, it can work as a sort of emotions valve..
And I wish the same for you.
