Looks good! Don’t forget to paint the base! A solid color like black is fine. It’s such a shame when it goes unpainted.

Fantastic lighting work!

It will be all right. I have been in a similar and made it out fine. Take a deep breath, step back and try to look at the big picture.

1. What are the immediate problems? How big are they really (what is the worst that could feasibly happen, is it really as bad as you think it is, vocalize them)? Filter out the things that aren’t actually a big deal, prioritize the rest and work on them one at a time. No more, no less.

2. Make it a priority to get yourself a diagnosis and a treatment plan. If your current psychiatrist won’t help you, look for another one.

3. Don’t worry about the big picture stuff right now. You’re not in the right headspace to make any big decisions. If you can put your studies on pause I would advice you to do so until things have calmed down. Make sure you have something going on though that keeps you active and occupied without being stressful or taking over.

I love the weekend but the very thing I love (no “musts”) is often what makes me feel like shit. So I have to against my instinct and make plans/schedule things. But then I often go overboard in that direction instead. So there’s certainly some amount of really frustrating inner conflict going on there. 😥

Can you give tips re: plantscaping and aquariums? They were some of my favorites on reddit but I’m not sure what they’re called over here.

I read it. Congratulations! 🥳

I actually love it. It looks like something the character in question would have painted themselves.

Why not help build it though? It’s all community driven and unlike Reddit, Lemmy is much better at surfacing small communities and new posts. You’d be surprised how quickly you can get replies/comments.

Not sure this is an ADHD thing but what will happen to me is I’ll be in a flow state, working on something, and feeling that my attention is about to run out while struggling to solve a particular problem. It’s incredibly stressful and annoying to know I have like 10 minutes tops or I’ll be stuck on this problem for a week (because God forbid I break it down into small enough chunks where it’ll be easy to pick back up tomorrow).
