imposter syndrome is a bitch
it can happen to artists you think are already enough or are skilled and great in your eyes
as much as it motivates us to improve ourselves and do better, its still not a pleasant feeling at all
its a persistent cycle of admiring someone who doubts themselves and i dont think its selfish to think that "you're not good enough"
because life has been cruel to us and for most of our lives we've been taught to "suck it up" or that we fear that our outputs are invalid in some way or mean nothing to anyone- the outputs that have parts of ourselves in it, even if it isn't meant to take a part of ourselves- it still came from us nonetheless
posts can easily say that you should be kind to yourself more but when it comes to trauma and something that's been with you since childhood, it's not as simple to shake off
it can take years and years- varies for every individual- and even then the people around you, the world and even yourself will change
as much as its awkward or a downer to see, be kind to artists who are hard on themselves. its not your obligation to give them attention. no, i dont think every single person who sees a vent post should come up to the person and be there for them to cry on their shoulder.
i just think at the very least we should understand that every single person you meet and the artists you admire are imperfect, and they will continue to think crappy thoughts about themselves- unlike in fantasies where its some simple character arc that is a story obstacle that can be overcome and forgotten about- fantasy is meant to be a fulfillment- a desire.
we are real human beings, but we can learn and grow and live.

I find it so silly and funny how different mogamis can be. we got @tragedy-in-sea-minor 's mogami who's got a silly goofy evil man kinda feel to him. Like if he was just .5% less traumatized and more fucked up. More ghostly, if that makes sense. The most based takes tho. and then there's @necronatural 's mogami who is like peak autism. he's very serious and honestly very intimidating as a character. and then there's mine. Not even in hell is there a soul more tormented than him. anyways I think if you put them in a room together they would start killing each other. uh. Sorry for the tags but I'm having early morning Thoughts

Dion was excited to have a brother as a child, he didn't necessarily want for one but when he was told he would have a sibling it made him happy. Seeing Olivier when he was born was a moment that immediately engraved itself within his memory, he can still recall that day clear as if it had just happened. Yet as they grew up they were kept separated, unable to have a relationship with his younger brother due to his mother's disdain of him. He would give up entirely as Anabella began sheltering and spoiling him more, they were family and yet it felt as if they were complete strangers. Now he finds the boy aggravating, he tries to remember that it isn't the boy's fault that he was raised in such a way but whenever he speaks all he can hear is Anabella. He wishes to have a bond with him, he does truly, but to him it is nigh impossible to break through that barrier the boy's mother has set up.
