I've quit thrice in the past and i havent made that much progress during either of my attempts so i feel stupid trying to get into it again.
I do want to it just makes me feel a ton of shame and anxiety whenever i do.
I'm not asking for advice because there's literally nothing here to adviae upon other than
>Just draw
>Power through
>Set a minimum of one minute
Sry a good thread had to die for this.
I hope i'll finally get through this and start working tomorrow.

I would do 0 work then because its a dopamine deficient hobby and i get anxious just thinking about it.

My head gets ideas that i then want to realize.
Idk if this is passion or whatever there's just like four things that i'd really like to draw and to learn how to do that i'd have to learn the skill in general.
Also it is engaging it just loses when compared to how easy it is to extract dopamine from beating off and family guy clips.

There is. Life is grinding. Simple as.
Your anxiety is irrelevant. So what if you feel it? If you're afraid of feeling emotions you're already dead.
I'm getting into it myself and I haven't really drawn since childhood lol. I've improved massively on various features (eyes, lips, hands, etc), but rn struggling with skulls, but I'll get that done as well with practice + various approaches. Stop avoiding it and just do it.

You make it diamine deficient by having unrealistic expectations and pessuring yourself for not meeting then
>i get anxious just thinking about it.
exactly because of your perfectionism and expectations of result and not doing what feels fun at the moment

Your rational brain has a very bad idea of what really should be done to actually learn.
Would a child plan their language acquisition curriculum?
Be like a child, dumdum, see that your strategy failed three times and learn at least for the fourth time to do things differently - to do what feels engaging and not what you think is right.
Your ideas about what is right clearly failed you, time to do it differently.

Be compassionate towards yourself, be humane, do not expect superhuman feats and dont beat yourself to the level of dirt. Dont be neither ubermensch nor untermensch. Be a human and remind yourself every time you'll have perfectionistic tendencies that you're only human. You're limited in both good and bad. You're imperfect. And it is absolutely alright. Let yourself be imperfect, give yourself the right to be an imperfect human being.

You don't like art. You like the idea of making art. But you are creative. You want an outlet for your creativity. Fear not, child. For there are many other outlets to display your creative talents. You just haven't found the right one. Give up on drawing. Pursue another creative medium, if just as much creative freedom. Like writing. Go pick up a pen and paper and begin writing. If you start learning now, you'll become a best selling author later. Continuing to pursuit aren't further will only cause you to regret it later. Become a writer, anon.
