Like, I'm all for homegrown dank LAS memes, but let's avoid borderline spam, guys.

I think I'm about to lose it.

I know I'm about two steps above a total beginner.
I know I'm still at that level where if I made my own thread or posted my shit for critique in the draw thread, the only response will be "practice more" or "Loomis".
I know that it takes time to reach your goals.
I know you have to temper your expectations and your patience and avoid tackling ambitious projects like making webcomics, telling visual stories or making your "magnum opus" or "piece de resistance", because any attempt to do so would be a waste of time better spent on studies, biomechanical training and developing a visual library. On top of that, it just brings into laser focus the extreme distance between where I am and where I want to be.
So I have been quietly shutting up that inner voice that's saying "draw that piece of fanart you've always wanted to". "Just try a short animation. Come on. You know you want to." "Design that one character. Never mind the fact that you don't understand anatomy and your current level of skill is insufficient to begin such an examination in the first place." It was easy to do so because I genuinely enjoy studies, and with a student's schedule, I'm unable to draw for much too long each day.

But today, for some reason, that voice is screaming "i seriously can't take this anymore how long am i going to have to wait, here punch this wall in frustration at your own stupidity for starting three years later than you intended to".

Help. I'm going crazy. Yes, I'm week one.
