I want to draw but literally everything about drawing looks too complex and difficult for me. I'm literally an ADHD; autistic special needs retard that doesn't know math beyond a fucking basic middle school level. Even just figuring out the perimeter of a rectangle was difficult for me.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1EPNYWeEf1U
Even this technique looks too difficult for me. Not to mention my whole body coordination is fucked thanks to tremors and I get overstimulated by looking at too many lines.

I don't know what to do. Should I even try?

WARNING: THIS POSTER IS AN EMOTIONAL VAMPIRE WHO WILL DEFLECT ALL ADVICE YOU GIVE AND FEAST ON YOUR PSYCHIC ENERGY BY DRAGGING YOU INTO POINTLESS CONVERSATIONS. HE HAS MADE THIS EXACT SAME THREAD COUNTLESS TIMES.

Example of his past exchanges:
>>6836401
>Yes. Your drawings are careless and rushed.
>6836406
>How?
>>6836436
>Google "How to Draw Freehand Straight Lines"

>Sigh. No anon. You don't skip and jump from one technique to another until it works. You pick one and grind it until it clicks.
>6836634
>What other techniques are there? You haven't told me a single one. The arm and elbow is literally what every fucking piece of advice tells me to do.

Every reply by this mental case is designed to foist the burden of improving onto the other person. Note how he always vacillates between begging for advice, then finding a way to disregard advice.
Whenever you give him advice, he will whine about how he can't do it.
If you follow up, explaining how to do it, or challenging him, he will whine about the explanation not working for him. He will make excuses and ask for explanations of more and more basic things beyond the point of absurdity.
He will insist he wants to do something, then turn around and claim he doesn't know what he wants to do.
He will never post examples of his attempts, or post scribbles done with minimum effort.
He will try to bait you into meta-discussions, about himself and why he sucks.
When you eventually give up, he will start whining again that there is no good advice.

STOP giving him attention. He is mentally ill and has remade this same thread over and over, because HE IS NOT LOOKING FOR ADVICE. HE WANTS YOU TO ENGAGE IN HIS PITY PARTY.

In Greek mythology, Cancer is identified with the crab that appeared while Heracles fought the many-headed Lernaean Hydra. Hercules slew the crab after it bit him in the foot. Afterwards, the goddess Hera, an enemy of Heracles, placed the crab among the stars

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09839DpTctU
Legends relating to the order of the Chinese zodiac often include stories as to why the cat was not included among the twelve. Because the Rat tricked the cat into missing the banquet with the Jade Emperor, the cat was not included and was not aware that the banquet was going on and was not given a year, thus began the antipathy between cats and rats. It is possible domesticated cats had not proliferated through China at the zodiac's induction.[2]

Another legend known as "The Great Race" tells that all the animals in the zodiac were headed to the Jade Emperor. The Cat and Rat were the most intelligent of the animals, however they were both also poor swimmers and came across a river. They both tricked the kind, naïve Ox to assist them by letting them ride on its back over the river. As the Ox was approaching the other side of the river, the Rat pushed the Cat into the river, then jumped off the Ox and rushed to the Jade Emperor, becoming the first in the zodiac. All the other animals made it to the Jade Emperor, while the Cat was left to drown in the river after being sabotaged by the Rat. It is said that this is also the reason cats always hunt rats.

this place is probably a huge mixed bag of unverifiable info from people who may or may not be dunning krugers but people are rec'ing books and videos that are from pros who have shown their worth so thats something
But even if they're good we don't know if they're good for you and you don't know either so you have to go with faith. thats an important aspect of being disciplined.

It sounds to me like this guy has learned himself into a helplessness hole so deep he can't even see the sun anymore.

You identify as a retard, and retards don't draw, so you won't draw. ADHD, autism, whatever the fuck. You believe it, and so you become it. And you refuse to see beyond it. And so you let it rule you.
You try to draw, you try new things, but the new things are too hard, so you give up! Then because you know no things, you lack the confidence to try things at all anymore. So, as a result, you effortlessly lean back into your comfortable retardedness that you know so well. You do what's easy. You pick up your phone. You scroll. You make another thread asking for advice.

What you are really doing is avoiding pain. You are avoiding the pain of learning. You are avoiding the pain of making differences in your life. You are avoiding the pain of change.

Unfortunately, art, drawing, making an Amazon Account, etc... all these things involve some modicum of Pain. Lots of pain. Constant pain. The greatest artists of all time that we read about in history books and on Wikipedia and shit were able to suffer through this pain. That's what made them great. And it's because you lack the CONFIDENCE to start and the PERSERVERANCE to keep going that you will never be able to face that pain and work through it. And the more you believe in your retardation symptoms holding you down the more likely it is you will never able to OVERCOME them.
You will never suffer. And so, by sticking to that principle, you will never draw.

cont.

NO amount of buying new tools, downloading new programs, or watching how other people do it is going to make YOU DO IT. This is what the other retards on this board mean by you needing an attitude adjustment and not drawing advice. YOU OWN NOTHING IN YOUR LIFE BUT THE MIND HIDING BEHIND YOUR EYES. There is no pencil. There is no Amazon Account. There is no Mom cooking you dinner. ALL THAT EXISTS IS YOUR PERCEPTION. If your perception is fucked up, how can YOU expect to DO anything?

So, change your perception. How do you change? You suffer.
Change is too hard? Suffer.
Learning is too hard? Suffer.
Can't draw more than circles? Suffer.
Draw something different. Persevere. Suffer.
You will get better. It will be hard. You can take a break. Then you can continue to suffer.

A friend of mine once told me that if creativity isn't literally pouring out of you then you shouldn't be in art. You want it so bad? Try, motherfucker. SUFFER. DO SOME FUCKING JUMPING JACKS, GET PUMPED, PUT THE PENCIL TO PAPER, AND TRY. SUFFER. TRY. That'll make the difference between ASKING people to care about you because you're so fucking helpless and people WANTING to care about you because you're so fucking based that they won't not want to.

Now go watch some tutorials and draw some shit. And don't post again until you're done.

I'm on a huge dosage of adderall every day. I've legitimately never been able to commit myself to any serious hobby and have gotten lazy over the years with my only actual one which is writing and the only reason I'm good at writing is because I wanted people to be able to understand what the fuck I was saying and I wanted to write good stories because I thought I'd never be able to make them in a visual medium, but that's it. I've never been able to commit to a serious routine, schedule, or anything. I just sit in my room online doing basically nothing.
A higher dosage of vyvanse anti anxiety medication. This is on top of a booster dosage I'm taking each day too. My mind and my body locks up and prevents me from actually doing anything. Usually either out of anxiety or my mind and my body simply just locking up and telling me "What the fucks the point"? And just making me look back at my phone again or just stimming and staring at a wall.

Legitimately NOTHING has worked. I felt better for a week and then nothing. This has gone back all the way since I was a teenager too. I had thyroid problems that got fixed, but this never got any better.

I don't know how to get the motivation to do anything. Even when I do happen to try my hardest in doing something, it's always half as good or even just 2% as good as anybody else doing the same thing, because me being purely retarded and unable to learn or focus. Even when I try, nothing good happens. My entire body feels sore and I rest for the whole day. I've been working out for 2 years and lost 20 pounds as well.

By "get pumped" I mean get excited. If drawing doesn't excite you, if the creativity doesn't flow naturally through your soul, then quit. You truly believe that about yourself? Quit. Drawing obviously isn't for you. It's that simple.

>>7096071
That said, you enjoy writing? Go for that. But stop fucking complaining and feeling sorry for yourself all the time. Is that helping you further your own goals? Or is it sinking you deeper in your own mud that you made for yourself?

From the sound of it, your medication is really messing with your head- perception, remember -and the internet is distracting you, preventing you from facing pain directly. If you want my advice (disclaimer, you are on 4Chan) cut out the meds and your phone/the web for a month and see how you react in a vaccum. Start from square 0. Break this so-called cycle and change how you think about yourself because that's what's really holding you back. Use the time you have to get used to suffering through work and pain and doing what the fuck you really want to do. Sound like a drag? It is. Pain is good. You have to face it.

Also, stop comparing yourself to others. That's retard shit. Of course they're better than you, they've done what you don't do. Focus on your lane. Comparison won't help you.

If you can't do all this then I hope you're happy with living the same day for the rest of your life, jacking off and doomscrolling until you die. Are you a waste of space or not?

Also, when I say quit, I really mean that. It's better to be honest with your own abilities than try to force something that won't work. That is, if that's the conclusion you come to.

You gotta realize that this has been the case forever. The Internet enables your spastic behavior, it doesn't create it out of nowhere. So you either adjust or continue doing nothing. Some of the best musicians, artists, etc. have said that they wanted to quit at some point, but didn't.
Imagine what you were going to do if you were to do this in 1980. You've quit. What's next? Get drunk? Hire a hooker? Play arcade games? All of this requires you to go somewhere, so you might as well pick up the pen and start drawing.

I got ADHD recently diagnosed 54mg Concerta etc etc. For OP here ironically was in a similar ish situation as a child now I don't want to dog you down as refer to you as a kid but i wanted to draw and the process didn't click with me. It actually made me mad whenever we had art class and I could barely draw stick men despite my ideas being so vivid. The thing was I didn't draw as a hobby. Play time came, I preferred to run and play tag. I didn't doodle in my bit of time. So that feeling of loosely doing with passive thought didn't come. Some people have mentioned suffering and there is real truth in this advice I best advise to enjoy suffering and to choose it. I don't rage quit games due to me picking this mindset its really fucking helpful to go 100 matches against an opponent and then start to slowly win.

Whether you can take the advice is one thing but the "science" I can bring that's been already said in "doing it" is factual when it comes to the brains neuroplacicity. Your brain and movements aren't just conscious thought so drawing is mostly dexterity similar to free flow dance (not an expert in illustration but my wife is) No one here can verbalise or atomise the FEEL FEEL FEELING of feeling the pressure and weight on your feet and toes. Try to intellectualise it. That feeling is outside of your overriding. So if you really want to draw I unironicaly say draw and attempt a road uncrossed. Also with the whole brain thing. New things can feel like pressure or strain it's extremely common but goes away with new hobbies or jobs. I struggle with keeping consistent hobbies I've never been a "my thing is Chess/Football/Cleaning/etc" always been a mix of shit. That ain't a problem but it's important for you to do shit you like. I've tried chess and ngl it's not for me beyond a friendly game here or there. If drawing is painful to you and isn't your music then don't do it. I don't mean to talk about me so much but i only have 1 consciousness ya know?

Don't think about math or rules or any of that shit. If you look up art instruction you will stumble across a lot of left-brained peopel who like to turn drawing into a science with many rules. For left-brained learners this helps but for intuitive learners it is actually a big hindrance. You're probably more right-brained like me, it still might be worth reading some art theory and rule sets just so they're there in the back of your mind but it doesn't matter if you don't absorb any of it. the best to way to improve is draw things you like, something feels off about your drawing? then look at reference of art you love and want to be like, copy it while listening to your favorite tune. it doesn't have to be a grueling miserable rule-based process.

Actually no, you don't. So I'd appreciate it if you'd stopped pretending like you do. I want actual advice instead of psycho analysis. Take what I say at face value and genuinely offer advice, or don't.

I’ve dealt with tards like you several times throughout my life. You’ll only ever amount to being nothing more than a tapeworm. I bet you hang out in artistic circles for the vibes, desperately wishing you could produce something worth half a squirt of cow shit just so you can feel included but you have no drive. No ability to sit down and put in the work because it’s just easier to jerk off and whine on the internet. You would legitimately be better off six feet deep. Now fuck off, no one can help you.

You obviously don’t. You’ve been given tons of helpful and practical advice that even a preschooler would be able to understand yet you absolutely refuse to do anything with it. You do not want to do anything creative that involves more than 2 minutes of work. You refuse to learn, you don’t want to listen to anyone who’s trying to help you, and you refuse to acknowledge your lack of motivation and instead try to hide behind the excuse of “waaaa my meds my adhd muh autism I can’t do anything”
Fuck off and die, faggot. You’ll never amount to anything more than a blubbering mass of defective cum.

My advice to you is to give up and fuck off. You make this thread every day and have not made any discernible progress whatsoever. All the time you’ve spent posting here could have instead been used trying to learn and develop, you could have just been trying to draw whatever’s in your room or simply trying to copy artwork from artists you enjoy. Instead you shit up this board with the same fucking thread every day. You don’t want to draw.

Nope. Otherwise you would be able to dedicate more than 30 seconds to those activities.

You can shitpost on 4chan for hours every day, so that's clearly more interesting to you. I'd recommend a board more related to your interests, like /h/ or /gif/, instead of /ic/, in which you clearly don't have any interest.

Tell me what the fuck to do then. A higher dosage of adderall, anti anxiety medication. This is on top of a booster dosage I'm taking each day too. My mind and my body locks up and prevents me from actually doing anything. Usually either out of anxiety or my mind and my body simply just locking up and telling me "What the fucks the point"? And just making me look back at my phone again or just stimming and staring at a wall.

Legitimately NOTHING has worked. I felt better for a week and then nothing. This has gone back all the way since I was a teenager too. I had thyroid problems that got fixed, but this never got any better.

I don't know how to get the motivation to do anything. Even when I do happen to try my hardest in doing something, it's always half as good or even just 2% as good as anybody else doing the same thing, because me being purely retarded and unable to learn or focus. Even when I try, nothing good happens. My entire body feels sore and I rest for the whole day. I've been working out for 2 years and lost 20 pounds as well.

You could’ve spent time actually drawing rather than constantly whining on here, Howie. Art is not a competition nor should it be rushed. Just keep trying. Yeah some stuff may be really complex but that’s just how a learning curve works. Just pick up the pencil and carry on with your journey instead of whining and stop using your autism as an excuse. You make a lot of actual artists that are on the spectrum look bad.
