Transcript:

Dealing with depression has become a major topic for today's society. It seems that the more we explore, the more we become a victim of our defficient knowledge of the surrounding world. Let me explain how that is connected to depression. To put it simply, the world is too vast for us to know intimately in our lifetime. That is a problem because we as a species, have want to know, understand, explain. It takes courage to start dealing with the thought that you will never be privy to the big secrets of the universe. So waistin a life in futility is a very real and looming threat. That causes depression. All the questions we didn't receive answers to.
The solution? Make things small. Make the world around you small and start from there. There is something comforting in the fetal position. Somethign that has to do with the compactness and smallness of it. This translates to art, which is also something we can simplify and work step by step. It goes without saying that something like drawing can relieve sterss too and improve one's cognitive ability.
So if you are combatting depression it wold make no sense to grab a pencil and try to immitate the grandmasters. The point is to do you on a piece of paper or a tablet. Remember how I talked about making the world small? Don't trouble yourself with the big things for now, Everyone has room for improvement and we all bash ourselves hard when we are not satisfied with the result. It's an artist's thing to do. Instead, think of your life as going through phases. You are no less you now than you will be one or two years from now. You are just in a different stage of your life.
It's the same with art. Just because you are not yet where you want to be as an artist, doesn't mean you can't do art. Or that your art isn't valuable to the world. If you put things into perspective it may look like what you are doing right now isn't enough to take you to that desired level. But at the current stage you are in, it's absolutely sufficient and necessary what you are achieving, what you are going through to get where you want to be.
So it's a shift of focus that we need to learn to make when we are feeling down. If you feel like the world is crushing you, take a moment to reflect on who you are and what you stand for as is. Make some positive affirmations about yourself. SOmething you know for sure about yourself. Say I am this, I am that, I am not this or this. And this will give you ground to stand on. Start with yourself. Before you knew about anything else, you knew you. THerefore, sticking to the thigns you know be it as an artist or a human being in general is the safe territory we can fall back to in times of trouble.
It's no good long term strategy to stay there because there's no progress where there's no effort, but that's beside the point.
