You're right. All of you are right. I shouldn't be mulling over how my life sucks and thinking about how pessimistic I am
when I could actually force myself to change that.
Heck, I'm better off than most people I know. There's literally no valid reason for me to have to keep looking at the whole world in a negative manner like I do now.

I'll do my best. No matter how horrible or depressing things get, I won't give in. I'll get frustrated here and there, and it's likely I'll hit the ground again, but I'll never again drag you guys into my own problems. 
I'm pretty sure I've annoyed almost all of you with all my depressing journal shiznits, and for that I'm sorry. 
I shouldn't be standing here just waiting for others to take pity on me. I won't get anywhere.

As for the future? Can't say I'll stop worrying about how everything will turn out for me in the end, but if my parents say it will be fine--
Then, I think I'll count on that. No use worrying about something that still hasn't happened right...?

This image is amazing. The movement is so amazing. I can't. Also, I'm pretty sure you're like a color genius or something <3

I feel like a creep because I kinda read through the comments to get an idea of what's troubling you. Don't be afraid of college <3 I love college, I never want to leave which is why I'm going to try for a master's degree (I also might be a nerd). You just learn so much and grow and find who you are, its really amazing. Soooo much better than high school. You can always talk to me about it if you get afraid or stressed. I'm graduating college in November so I kinda know the ropes? xD Education is a great thing, it can never be taken from you. 
I'm horrible at comforting people, but I try ;-; I don't like seeing amazing people troubled

Thanks.

...Depends on peoples' courses I guess. I'm going on an animation, digital art, coursepath...Thing.
Probably won't even succeed.
Good on you though, you seem to be having fun.....

Nooo don't say that!! <3 You'll do amazing! Your teachers will adore your work and push you to your full potential. I'm doing 2D studio art and then I plan to get a masters in animation! So we're kinda doing the same thing

FIRST OF ALL THIS PIECE IS GORGEOUS. I love how the far limbs and the tail fade into the background, and the pose is so dynamic! You've really mastered the ability to use motion and color to bring attention to certain areas of your pieces and establish a focal point, I love it! <3

I think at one point everyone worries about how their life sucks and what bad things may happen in the future, but staying in that negative space isn't helping anyone and it certainly isn't good for you! I don't know about your life or your situation, but I can tell you that your art is great and you're amazing! C:

(And if you ever need someone to talk to I'm here for you! I know we don't really know each other that well, but feel free to shoot me a note or something if you want somebody to chat with or vent to!)

Thanks! Pretty sure this was just one of those lucky shots.

Really, my life's actually a-ok. It's just me, I don't really look at the brighter side of everything...
Or maybe school too. Y'know. The stress and all.

And hey, it's fine. I'm feeling pretty good right now.
Whenever you feel down you can talk to me too, only way I can thank you for your concern.

I'm sorry man! I know what it feels like to be down. 
Sometimes people need to vent, and don't let anyone say they're annoyed by it
they dont have the right to put you down because of it.

Just keep your head up! We're all there at one point, struggling along! Don't worry.
If you ever need someone to vent to, I'm always here.

When I first favorited this I was super drowsy. But now that I'm awake I'll make a legitimate comment!

duudeeee you seriously get better with everything. Dang. The colors are great, the blur/motion is great, the fade into the BG is great, just... Ughggg. Stop being so great, it's ruining my brain ;o;

yeahhhh man I know how it feels to just be negative all around. It sucks. It changed who I was, anyway. But hey, I'm so happy you're deciding to help yourself! If you need to chat with anyone about anything (either personal or just dumb jokes lol) I'm always here ;u;

Being concerned about the future isn't a bad thing, but you can't let it control your life<3 You never annoy me when you talk about those things. It just shows that you don't have trouble admitting your problems and that's the first step to overcoming them xD

fuck that drawing is amazing

but apart from that: stay strong. ♥ i mean i don't know your situation, but it seems like you are fighting incredibly hard and doing a great job at it, no matter how hard the feelings hit you. also: none of your journals ever annoyed me. instead i find it very brave to seek for help in a situation like that. if you want to talk - i'd be there for you. ;u;

aignavus In reply to Autumnbirds [2014-08-14 15:29:54 +0000 UTC]

Hey thanks.

My situation's literally just me being so negative about myself and about life, probably influenced by something
'cause I'm pretty sure I wasn't this way before, but I can't exactly tell what it is. 
Brave? Well now, that's a first.
Thanks again man.

No problem. <333

Did you ever try to talk to a therapist? D: Because if you feel like you can't handle it anymore it can't be alright.
Of course. I think getting help is one of the hardest steps in the process of changing and getting better, so of course it's brave. ;U;
Always. ♥

Yeah, it must be tough to have a complete stranger, asking you all kinds of personal questions... so I understand. D: It might help though. But it's your personal decision.

It's already been said so often, but let me say it again: nobody can be brave without fear, since being brave means overcoming ones fears.

Amazing work dude!

Yes you can do it! Fighting! There's always time for you to feel depressed, or sad, or thinks life is against you. But remember that things get better, no matter how long you wait things will ALWAYS get better.

Now for some song for motivation >w> www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsrICJ…

First off, when I saw this in my inbox I went "OH MY GOSH DAT POSE". Your style, the balanced movement and gestured anatomy in this piece is impressive and very artistic. I am in absolute LOVE with this.
I couldn't possibly go away without leaving a comment and obviously reading the description.

You know what? You have all the rights in the world to think your life sucks. What's important is that you must not stay there and do nothing about it. Change what you think needs to be changed.
Some of us will always feel misunderstood, lonely and negative, no matter how lucky our life situation is. Some persons, like you perhaps, have an uneasy feeling about life that simply doesn't have a reason. There IS a way out of this feeling. It is all about following your heart, seeking for help if you think you need it, pushing away the negative people in your life who's opinion you don't need.
This is just my own advice with my view of the situations. I don't really know exactly what you're going through, but I hope some of these words I just wrote can end up helping you in the long run.

I'm happy to hear that no matter how hard it gets for you, you'll still do your best to fight it. It's the most that matters. If you do your best, noone is allowed to ask more.
And no worries, vent journals and art are sometimes needed. It's a much better way to express emotions, than smashing plates or god forbid, even worse things. Plus, often emotions bring out big masterpieces too. But juts remember in the middle of those to bring some light into your gallery aswell, since a completely dark one won't help too.
And not sure if you've seen this, but keep this in mind too 38.media.tumblr.com/1e8d44e52b…
But still, don't worry, it warms my heart to hear that you're up for trying to go for a right way.
I and many others truly believe in you with this, i can assure you that c:

Looking at life through a negative perspective tears everyone down. Learning to look at everything more positively is difficult, but I think once people can do that, it can change their life. And no, waiting for people to pity you won't get you anywhere. I've done that before. You just kinda have to take charge of the situation, change yourself for the better.
I'm sure there are a lot of people on here that would say they are here to support you if you ever need it! And surprisingly, parents are right most of the time. :3

That's what everyone says yes, and I do believe it's true, it's easy to be depressed and everything, but so hard to keep a constant positive outlook on life.

Save for a lot of people I know. 8D
Being positive is just so damn easy for them.

Thanks a lot Skaie...

Nooo! You haven't annoyed
us at all! 

Depressions a pretty damn nasty thing, and it
definitely isn't easy or fun to go through.
Please, don't think like that. You're super talented
and and awesome person, and I can tell that
barely knowing you! You're amazing.

I know it sounds stupid, but it really helps to try
your best to stay on the positive side of things!

Not at all!
Some other advice I can give you is
to convert your feelings to art.
Just splatter paint across a giant page.
Draw on the sidewalk with chalk.
Write your feelings out on a paper and
then destroy it, rip it up into tiny little
shreds and make those remnants into
a beautiful collage instead.

Exercise can help, too. Sometimes I'd
go for a run with my dog and I'd feel
refreshed for a while!

Hope these help!
