I'm a 27 year old woman, being diagnosed with Autism and an anxiety disorder when I was 24. I also have been dealing with some serious bouts of depression.
As a teen I wanted to be an artist. I drew, colored and painted a lot. They gave me a lot of joy. Since then I've been seriously depressed on and off, resulting in doing nothing at all but survive.
I've been wanting to get back into art lately, since I've been doing better. But my attention span has been decreased, by A LOT. I can't motivate myself to do anything for more than 10 minutes without getting seriously bored. And if I'm not bored, I just stare at my pencil/brush/screen, not knowing what to do.
Any people with the same problem? Is this ADD? (I really don't hope it is..) or something else? Any tips maybe?
