It’s even worse when you’re good at one thing but don’t want to turn it into a career because it’d ruin your passion behind it and there’s really not many choices for good paying careers with it anyways (literature)

I may just need antidepressants though we’ll see (currently making efforts to hopefully, eventually, be on antidepressants)

what is your struggle to take basic care like? is it executive dysfunction?

I took a general neurospych evaluation with my autism assessment and apparently my executive functioning’s actually really good. So, I think it might just be depression

Oh shit I was actually hoping to get into publishing illustration, if you’d like I can dm you the link to my portfolio so you can look and see if you’d be interested in having me design a book cover if you need one down the line? (Absolutely no pressure btw, figured I’d ask just in case)

I’m not sure about me even writing a book, but nonetheless, I’d love to see your art anyways 🥰
