      It's hard to constantly be putting out creative work, and burnout happens really easily when you're constantly using up everything you have to do it.

      take breaks! remember to feed yourself! take your medication and take care of your body!

      You're an artist no matter what or how much work you put out - so make the process enjoyable and comfortable for YOU!

         If that means taking lots of breaks, or even taking days or weeks between big projects, that is *OK*! Every artist is different, the time it takes you to make something doesn't in any way change that you are an artist. One person's output schedule will change drastically from another.

         Be patient with yourself, be kind to yourself, take pride in what you do even if it isn't perfect yet. You're constantly growing, even in the midst of burnout. Be proud of that!
