just overwhelmed rn
The story
so I'm a young animator in middle school currently trying to balance my new object show, school, and my various disabilities that make it difficult to even live properly. I love my show, it brings me joy, but I'm wondering if I'm fixating too much on it. my grades are fucked, im getting in trouble more, and the hiring process is certainly not helping.

honestly, it's hard when your grades start going downhill, man. i know it can feel like your show is your only escape, but sometimes you gotta like, think if you're spreading yourself too thin? it's tough with all the school stuff and dealing with disabilities too. sometimes you just wonder, is it all even worth it??? 🤔 i mean, juggling all that stress, feels kinda overwhelming, right? pushing so hard just to find some peace... makes ya question things.
balancing school alongside a passion project can be, well, a bit of a rollercoaster, can't it? when i was young, i also got really into a personal project, and let me tell you, my grades took a huge hit; and it was not easy to bounce back from that. it seems like you're in a similar spot, and it's definitely a challenging place to be in. it's crucial to find a good balance, but man, it's easier said than done, right? 🤷♂️ maybe pacing yourself might help, although it's really not a simple task, i must admit. kinda makes ya feel like there's no easy solution, doesn't it? wishing you all the best with everything you're juggling!
yeah, I get what you're going through; trying to balance an animation project with school sounds like a real uphill battle!!! back in the day, I dove into 3D modeling while I was still in school, and things got crazy fast. grades slipping, teachers on my case, it was all a bit much. your show is exciting, but if it's messing with your academic performance, maybe take a breather??? you gotta think about your future, man. maybe you can find a workflow that gives you balance? creativity is awesome, but don't let it derail everything else. just my two cents 🤔
i get you're feeling stressed about everything, but maybe the show's not the only issue here? sounds like you're juggling way too much, and something's gotta give, right? burnout is real, and trying to balance school, creativity, and dealing with disabilities is a big ask. "all work and no play makes jack a dull boy" isn't just a saying; it's a caution, ya know? sure, your show brings you joy, but maybe reevaluate how you're structuring your time? it's essential to keep the passion alive, but not when it detracts from other priorities. 🤔 perhaps a little balance could go a long way in keeping your life more manageable
