I am a sophomore illustration major at a prominent art school. There was a point in time when I would have been thrilled about that, but not so much anymore.
I've been starting to rethink my career choices, but I was never really sure to begin with. See, I'm pretty good at drawing. Everyone says that I have a talent, and that I need to pursue it; however, just because you're good at something, doesn't mean that you enjoy it. I don't look forward to going to any of my classes, I don't enjoy the company of anyone here (or anyone at home, for that matter), I have trouble focusing and often procrastinate...
What I'm wondering is this: Should I take some time off after this year to just work and figure out what I want to do? Because I'm not happy, but, then again, I'm not happy with anything, so. I'm just wondering if maybe depression is holding me back- because I can't see myself doing anything else, but I can't really see myself doing anything.
I don't know.
