Many people will deprive themselves of friends, food, and anything else they can, in order to pursue their art.

Since you are socially phobic, you don't have to give up what peace you have in order to be home to work on your art.

You seem to be in an ideal place to continue your pursuit unless you are depriving yourself of rest, meds, etc. People with any disorder must take good care of themselves in order to function, period. Always remember the art can be worked on the next day after you rest.
