@morimori's post on Artfol
I keep seeing people who apologize for not being active or posting everyday or things like this and... it kinda makes me feel sad bc I know that behind, there's prolly someone who's struggling with bad thoughts, depreciation, anxiety, adhd and else.
So imma say something, hoping it helps, at least, a little.
You don't rly owe anyone your time.
I know, I can see even as a non-artist, that competitivity between arts/artists is a big thing on apps even if you're not yourself in a competitive way of thinking.
But, I swear, taking a little nap, resting a couple of days, taking care of yourself won't really put an end to the support you're receiving, to your worth as an artist ( a human being ) or any other kind of crappy thoughts that could come to your mind. And, even if it's easier to say than to do (and I know, trust me), apologizing is only a social thing abt politeness. You don't have to feel loudly the urge of apologizing for taking time out of social media.
You're cool. I wish all of you a very pleasant journey as an artist, whatever your medium is.

I think since a lot of people are probably coming from twitter, there’s gonna be some leftover anxiety like that (twitter’s very design encourages it, I can’t say much about insta), so I’m hoping artfol gains more traction and having a more art dedicated space might actually be good for us, mentally
