probably a already talked about topic but what i mean is when i try seeing any video on a serious topic on YouTube, Tiktok, ETC. I sometimes hear and see words like “unalive” “pewpew” “grape” and such and for some reason something inside me dies each time i hear those terms

to me it removes the gravity of the situation or topic at hand, of course its used so they dont get demonetized or if people are sensitive to the real words but my god does it piss me off a little, its literally like explaining something to a toddler and it irritates me so much, honestly i feel it belittles or demeans the people who are involved in the situation, of their tragic events being novelized into those words

if i made any mistakes covering this please lmk im not very good at putting my thoughts into words lol

i find myself getting pretty frustrated when a drawing i do isnt good, like one time i got so upset i legitimately cried over it even though i just started, idrk how to handle those emotions and really let myself be bad in the beginning lmao

lately i been realizing apps like Tiktok and Instagram are harming me mentally, like i constantly compare myself to others, see so much talented people that are my age and such

i wanna be a artist, and animate and such and do so much creative things but its very hard for me because im so hard on myself a lot of the time, and seeing those talented artists kinda makes it worse, i tried to draw something last night, ended up comparing myself and i felt so upset over it.

so to the people who deleted those apps and their mental health improved because of it, does it actually work long term?? (Sorry if i type weird im not very good with forming long paragraphs haha)

i got into drawing last night, i really wanna keep going but i have mood swings occasionally, like i wanna do it at one moment and the next i wanna give up on it, idrk how to keep a positive mindset on it, and i wonder if anyone here who feels or felt the same could tell me how i could keep going without it getting overwhelming

like for rn i kinda feel like giving up even though i just started 💔

idk if the title made sense but basically i got into drawing last night, i really wanna keep going but i have mood swings occasionally, like i wanna do it at one moment and the next i wanna give up on it, idrk how to keep a positive mindset on it, and i wonder if anyone here who feels or felt the same could tell me how i could keep going without it getting overwhelming
