I appreciate these threads because, for once in a blue moon, I don't have to be depressed alone...
But on the other hand, I don't like these threads, because they make me feel worse about what few successes I do have that I'm actually proud of. People are complaining they * only * have a couple THOUSAND subs, while I've never even dreamed of numbers that high, let alone seen them...I was happy about my 300-ish on WT before I got here... :[
Not saying they don't have the right to complain, though. I mean, I myself am still doing better than a lot of others here. Just goes to show you that success is relative...
I've gotten pretty used to being frustrated about my comics; what really bugs me these days is my YT channel. I LOVE my music, but apparently no one else does, because my view counts (which are still mostly in single digits) can't even match my subscriber counts. Even promotion is low-key humiliating at this point...if the shame goes any deeper I won't even be able to compose anymore (god forbid)...
But since I'm technically off topic, I'll get out now...
