Anxiety

I know some people used to think posting venting artworks is unprofessional move for freelance artists, but it's kinda helps me to deal with things and I want to hope sharing my experience could be useful for people dealing with same problems - there's no such thing as too much of representation.

As I mentioned, I appeared to have anxiety disorder combined with other mental problems. Even though I taking antidepressants, drinking enough of water, keep to be physically active, I still feel serious impact on my life and work caused by anxiety and constant self-doubts. For example, I planned to be very productive with drawing commissions today, but instead felt extreme anxiety caused by personal life events when I went out to store and I thought I either puke, or lose consciousness or both. It was hard to walk back to home and I spent hours just lying on sofa with twisted stomach. And things like that only causing more stress and anxiety, because I need to pay for medicine to get better, so I need to work, but it's hard when you mentally not ok. Not to mention how expensive medicine became here...

And world events - both connected with Russia or not - are only making me feel more anxious. Like, wtf, what's going on around the world? Why people can't live in peace and let live in peace to others?

I sketched this piece to do something with my emotions and dedicating it to everyone who's dealing with anxiety or any other mental issues. I also want to thank all people who shows kindness and care to me, who helps me, buying commissions (because in these times I have money issues and each commission matters a lot) or promoting them. Let there be more kindness and care in the world.

Please, consider supporting my art on Boosty in these dark times!
