unasked for condescending opinon but I think you need to hear this

You are looking for the wrong things in art/the art community. Art won't give you the confidence and attention that you want. Art won't give you love and happiness.

You have to find that confidence, that love and that happiness inside of you, and let them spill over into the other aspects of your life. It doesn't work the other way around. And when it does work, it tends to be a temporal fix only, which eventually runs out and puts you back where you started.

You will get good ideas and you art will be appreciated someday, op, but not as long as you feel like your talent and worth as an artist depends entirely on the amount of comments and favorites you receive.

When I art, it does tend to make me feel better, and bolster my confidence in myself. But that's because it makes me feel like I'm accomplishing something with myself and the happy trance-state I go into while I'm working, and that has little to do with any crit I might receive. If I don't art often enough, I start feeling really sad and depressed.

Otherwise, with you 100%. Everything has been done, OP. Everything. What'll set you apart is the love you put into your art, and that internal feeling of satisfaction as you gradually get better.

asdfj Sorry, I meant that, if the confidence and happy feelings weren't there already, art probably won't help that much. I'm glad to hear it makes you happy, though!

Yes, yes, yes! X 100 to your second paragraph. That's what I was sloppily trying to say.
