Dealing with stress

[Anonymous No.6500380]

How do you guys deal with life stress/anxiety coming from bills/house issues when drawing? I always feel ''off'' and have a hard sitting down to draw when I am stressed out

I literally don’t know how much money I even have
I stopped even looking at prices at the supermarket because they were higher every time I’d go since the ukraine shit started and it made me mad

i have no idea. Every year something big smashes into my life and fucks me up trying to learn how to draw. Whether it's job related, world related or the newest shit, my dad getting cancer. I wouldn't even get mad if i got cancer myself tomorrow if it meant that i get off this gay earth

I don't know. I can't draw unless conditions are fucking perfect. If I'm hungry, or its too cold, or I know there's no food in the fridge for later, then I can't draw. I can't get into the zone knowing there is some kind of problem hanging over my head. Right now I can't draw because I'm hungry but too lazy to cook something. so I'm just stuck in some limbo waiting for something to happen.

I guess this is truly something we all share in common, the only thing that helps is meditation/green tea/aromatic candles/nice music

But like many things in life, its a treament, not a cure

there's a certain time of the day where you don't have to worry about external crap cause you can't do anything about it. for me its around 9pm. so make some chamomille tea, put up background noise and just start drawing at that time.

>have commissions to draw
>no motivation to do them
>can't draw anything else because brain says "don't you have commissions to do first?"

i always thought it was silly how people would cry about how bad toxic people are and how that affects them mentally
i mean i've had bad friends and falling outs before and it just sucks and depressed me for a little. but man really having someone i tried the best for shit on me really fucked me up for months last year and ruined my gains
literally feels like i made no progress since grinding

Easy, detach yourself from your job, do the bare minimum required to not get fired. Avoid any on-call, and graveyard shift work. No offense to you faggots but money over 80k isn't going to make you happier also it's not like the company you work for appreciates you or anything like that. You sell your time for money. Simple as. You probably stressing so much because you live life as if you are meant to be stepped on like a fucking doormat. Lmao you expect your boss to babysit you like a fucking baby? Get real, you are on your own faggot. Life isn't sunshine and rainbows btw.

>but money over 80k isn't going to make you happier

It would make me real happy because I could save/invest and stop working earlier.

Marijuana.

I have a crazy wife, a stepdaughter who needs an exorcist and not a stepfather, a job that destroys me physically and coworkers who laugh at my limp. But one small bowlful and I am whimsical, creative, and filled with the Cosmic Wisdom. Damn economical too.

And pic related says it all.

[Anonymous No.6502085]

Isn't drawing supposed to be a form of escapism from that stuff like other forms of entertainment like a book or a movie? If you really like it, I mean.

Yeh, but would you seriously have the discipline to do that or would you just blow it on disposables? s.
