Dear kelly,
I am so sorry you are suffering so much with being bullied. There will always be haters out there, but they are the ones with the real issues. I think having anxiety and depression will allow you to feel worse. You said meds never helped you. Well, I do believe that you need to try different meds and stay on them a bit to actually feel a bit better. Are you under Dr’s care? He/she may be able to suggest ways in which you can develop a thicker skin and perhaps have you try some meds that may help you feel better.

There really are nice people in the world, but we are surrounded by the news, media, internet and the majority of it that is out there shows the bad and negative. Reading these blogs, trying an antianxiety or antidepressant, talking to friends, family and your Dr can alleviate some of your stress. Please know that if you want to cut yourself then you should talk with a professional.
You are an important person in this world and you have a lot to give to others. Please take the suggestions and talk with someone soon.

God Bless.

Hi Kelly!
May I know which art site it is? Why do they bully you on it?
I know a lot of commercial artists and most of them are great people!
See where they are coming from, and try not to dwell too much into what they say to you.
It’s unhealthy to get affected by what is not important in your life.
They are just another human who might be feeling bad behind their computers trying to put others down sometimes too.
I do not know the reason of their doings, but do not let yourself be affected.
Keep striving and working on improving your skills, no matter what others say about you or your work.
You will improve that way too.
