    I was experiencing moderate executive dysfunction from extreme anxiety last year. I started drawing but maybe did a small doodle at a time(<15min). I just kept the sketchbook and supplies in the one special place i kept clear of my chaotic clutter(even if that just meant pushing stuff around the desk). I think i picked it up once a week on average. A year on and I’ve done about a hundred sketches. I guess i decided that out of everything in life, that’s what i valued putting miserable little bits of energy into.

    Don’t know if that’s possible for you but every time you pick up that hobby you get a little better at it and that skill is never lost. So you know… Progress is progress ig.
