If it makes you feel good then it's a great idea. Drawing can bring you a lot satisfaction and accomplishment.
I used to draw to help keep mind and hands busy, unfortunately right now the medication I'm on causes hand tremors so I have to look for other avenues now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think that this is a great idea. =] Making something always makes me feel better. Gaylegg have you tried anything else yet? What about decoupage? Something to try if you were looking for something else artsy. I don't do it personally, but my step-mom does and its very therapeutic for her!

It's an excellent idea, drawing helps me with my depression and suicidal thoughts, but it may not be a direct route to a better self esteem, but I may be wrong too. Give it a try for sure. Imagine a straight vertical line. On that line put a dot where you think your self esteem is. And if the dot goes up as you draw more then it is helping.
For example on my line my self esteem was below 0 when I started counseling sessions. Then it went up to 3, and the highest point on the line is 15, the middle number is 7, which is what Im aiming for, it supposed to be ideal. Too high is overestimation, too low is low self esteem. |
