Just don't draw.

This mantra has protected my mental health more than any other cope. Just imagine the hundreds of shitty drawings you could have drawn and seethed over, lost in time because you correctly decided to not draw. Just don't draw.

You put yourself through turmoil every day whenever you try to start drawing. Your gut instinct is telling you to do something else, and your gut is always right. Do you really want to grind boxes or floating heads for hours and learn nothing? Do you want to spend a day polishing a turd that nobody likes?

Sure, sometimes you shit out a good piece every once in a while. But is it really worth chasing that high? Its like any other drug, getting that better high is harder and harder, you can't outdo yourself forever. Just don't draw. This is the final stage of art, when you realize it was a waste of time to begin with. Just don't draw.
