When you're depressed, I think calling it "practice" instead of "creating" makes it easier to create. There's no pressure to release what you make into the world or make it any good. You're just practicing so that when you're not feeling depressed anymore or when you're inspired, you can create even better than you would have.

Being happy and optimistic is a huge part of my identity so you can see how that can land me in a tricky spot when I'm feeling depressed... Especially when I try to explain to friends how I'm doing and they respond with something like "Oh no. But you are our sunshine. I don't want you to feel bad." Well thank you. I don't want that either!

The only thing I love more than what you said in this video is the way it's lit. It's lit in so many ways. I'm not sorry.

I usually draw when I'm feeling depressed. or make something up on the guitar. it makes me feel like I tried to do something to make myself better, and that the effort/will to do something with your life is what counts.

As an artist who struggles with severe anxiety, depression, and derealization, I understand this completely, and is something I think about ALL the time. I really take from Tyler Joseph's words in Kitchen Sink when it comes to purpose through what you create, which always doesn't have to be artistic, doesn't have to be any good, just something to tie yourself to. When you don't believe you're worth going forward, sometimes making things only you understand and can help others is the only reason you're staying. Anything that correlates with depression can be turned into a vicious cycle, but the loophole is to create something only you understand, because if you died, no one else would be able to interpret it in the way you know and understand, hence the meaning of the song... "my catastrophe at my kitchen sink; you don't know what that means, because a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me." Maybe having a value bank of meaning for something no one else understands is a final resort of purpose, but when you get into the vicious cycle of purpose through painted paper and flows words and chords and octaves, making something only your brain knows the true meaning of can be what keeps you at it. It's really cool to hear about depression and creativity correlation from more and more people. Why is it always the musical writers who have the mental illness though? 😂😪

Im on the verge of crying because I feel the same way... Im a music student and when I'm not "performing", not practicing several hours a day, not having a concert the evening or in weeks to come, Im freaking out, Im questioning myself, I extremely suffer... you truly have put into words what Im constantly overthinking... THANK YOU!

“The title “Artist” has gradually become a form of identity which (as every artist knows) often carries with it as many drawbacks as benefits. Consider that if artist equals self, then when (inevitably) you make flawed art, you are a flawed person, and when (worse yet) you make no art, you are no person all.” Ted Orland & David Bayles “Art and Fear” This quote really hit close to home in a time when I was very depressed and had a hard time getting out of bed, much less creating anything. And by not creating anything, I considered myself worthless. I believe it's really important to acknowledge that it can be hard to create art when you are depressed, and that that is ok, and doesn't take away your worth as a person.

Separating the person you are from what you create. That's so simple and so important. Need to remember that more often. Thanks, Tessa!

I needed this. I have been in therapy for about a year now because I am a college student and my sense of identity was so tied up in my academics that when I failed something I felt utterly worthless. Thank you for eloquently sharing a sentiment I have been trying to live by ❤️
