I wonder if it's because one is animated or because one constantly changes focus and camera angle

I literally cried because of two things and one of them was the transparent background tiff pictures I saved from Photoshop still had their background appears in low opacity when I saved the pdf from illustrator. I cried because I tried so many methods to fix it but nothing works. I tried making a library containing all the pictures and dragged the pictures from there, and I wanted to try placing the psd file instead but somehow the psd files won't appear in my file explorer so I couldn't do that. But then I decided to just leave all the pictures unembedded and suddenly the it looks fine on pdf? Idk if it's okay for me to do that because we're taught to always embed pictures... Like what if my lecturer somehow finds that out and decides to deduct my mark?

I'm not sad anymore. I'm miserable.

Edit: Help- I just wanted to share my poor choice of watching the donghua because of how it made me feel, didn't intend to make it a rant because it's not an appropriate community for it. But thanks for y'all's sympathy anyway, I appreciate it so much :')

My cat just recently died, and unlike the previous loss of family members I've experienced this one hit me pretty hard. Probably because compared to extended family members, she's like an immediate family member to me. I couldn't look at her pictures without tearing up. I cried two times a day for the first few days, then I decided I'd continue doing what I enjoy to heal faster, so I continue watching a show while eating and I decided on a donghua I've already started watching called Link Click. I was on the prequel of the second season, Link Click: Bridon Arc. With that I'm no longer sad. I'm miserable.

It was a mistake to continue watching that out of all other anime I could've watched. I feel like my grief is doubled down cuz I didn't know it'll be so tragic. Without spoiling anything, it feels like watching one of the countless emotional suffering someone has to go through with a brave face in order to reach a happy ending except they keep failing no matter what they do and how many times they try so the suffering keeps on going, and the arc ends with no actual ending. Heck even the opening theme song is emotional, both the animation and the song lyrics. To be more specific for the people who have watched or not planning to watch at all: >!What do you mean Cheng Xiaoshi died and Lu Guang traveled back in time to save him and others too because of Cheng Xiaoshi's death request, breaking his own rule to not make any changes to the past and future? And in every attempt new occurrences happened because of his actions in the past timeline where he travelled back yet he never succeeded so he's been travelling back in time and witnessing Cheng Xiaoshi's death many, many times. And the worst part is Lu Guang knows death is an important node that cannot be altered no matter how many times one travels back in time to prevent it, yet he still hopes and believes that he can save Cheng Xiaoshi and will keep trying even when he's tired and when it means sacrificing other people.!<

I was just starting to heal from the grief but now I'm back to crying once or twice a day and feeling unmotivated to do my assignments. What's worse is I'm in a creative art and design major and the result of my designing work looks like crap being in this state. I'm just sharing this here cuz idk what else I can do. This isn't fun one bit.
