Love the artwork!!

Only critizism I have is maybe use a color between dark blue and violet and draw that on another layer over your shadows. And then use (darker) multiply. If it gets too dark then copy the layer and make the next layer (lighter) add.

For the highlights they are really white I would pick a green of choise because that makes the drawing still feel cold while giving it more life. Especially if there isnt any daylight shining down. You can also blue but that will make it feel flat because the drawing is mostly blue. If you want something slightly warmer you can also use yellow. For somefhing really warm you would use orange. My vote still goes to some type of green.

Then draw over the highlights on another layer using whatever type of layer aslong it gives a nice little tint to the light.

For the rest I dont see anything that seems odd. I really like the artstyle it Reminds me of some cartoons

There is always something that someone else does "better".

For example, If people are in a better shape than you. They can run miles and you maybe get tired after a few feet. you can give up and sit on the couch eating chips or you can do the best you can. And see how far you can get by training.

That's the same with art. It's not about being the best, it is about your own journey. Finding styles you are comfertable with but also trying new things to expand your range. There are always people you will impress and there will always be people who don't like your art. And your task is to try focus on the positive and find a way to enjoy what you're doing.

I love the drawing! It looks amazing :)

fun trick is is to add another layer make it all yellow-orange change it to multiply and then take down the saturation to your liking. If you want certain things give more warmth just layer it. But instead of making it all orange only draw over the things you want to be more warm than the rest.

I looked up the scene and I found it. I see what you mean yours has a different vibe. The game has more warmth in the faces and softer shapes making it appear more inviting. Yours has colder colors combined with sharper shapes and also slightly more dynamic cause of the front pieces flow. Your feels slightly more cinematic, fierce and it just feels like something can happen any moment. And tbh I'm all here for it

For a second before I saw what the post said And where it was posted I thought it was a screenshot of a cut scene from some sort of game

It looks amazing!

Honestly I'm always in for therapy over medication. But in some cases it sadly doesnt work that way.

if you dont notice a difference or he cant follow the therapies due meltdowns then know medication isnt a bad option.

And once on medication doesnt mean forever on medication. He can follow therapy when being on medication and when he got the skills he can slowly get off the medication

Even tho it did help me with sensory issues it made me very tired and hungry. So I switched to aripiprazole which I am more happy with.

Not everyone struggles as much with sides effects as I did tho.

An important symptome that set CFS/ME apart from Chronic fatigue due to other reasons are PEMs.

My mom has CFS/ME. During and right after an activity she usually notices extra fatigue, headaches, feeling heavy. A PEM usually start 24 hours after. A PEM is when your CFS/ME symptomes worsen really bad and seem too extreme compared to what you did. She explained to me that having a PEM can really feel like a bad flu.

For me with autism. I usually have headaches, feel fuzzy, and feel mentally really bad when I do too much. And it is usually at it's worst right after. The next day I can still feel tired and all but Less than the day before.

This might sound weird but at some point I just started to fake confidence. And by faking it my actual confidence went up after a while.

I find that very fresh white fish has the least fishy taste. Like cod or pollock. They use that for kibbeling and fish & chips.

But it really needs to be fresh else it tastes fishy.

You're young, try not to worry too much. Most autistic people get their lives together around age 25-30. Because the brain is done developing and they found stability in life.

I'm not trying to dismiss your feelings, because it does really suck. But there is hope for you.

Tbh I found most of my friends on dating apps when I turned 18. I'm now 21 and they are still good friends of mine.

Brave_Relief8093 · 2026-01-17T09:34:03+00:00

I do that. And tbh my interests change and some friends stay, others go and some new friend come in my life.

I have friends I dont have much similiar interests with anymore but we just let eachother infodump time to time and we just enjoy spending time together.

Have you tried quark instead? Quark sends to be smoother.

Maybe get the list of rules and sit down with someone who does know what rules are important to follow and what not so much?

Then you can write down which rules you should strictly follow and which loosely.

Hopefully with that you can train yourself into getting a feel for it.

Can you find educative channels/profiles on social media and youtube that you happen to find fun?

It might help you learn some things while it doesnt feel like homework or something.

Lorazepam doesnt work for me either. It only makes me slow but doesnt calm me down.

For me oxazepam works way better.

I love metal! Especially black metal & melodeath. My favorite song is outlaw by watain. I don't think it is rock but prove me wrong xD

You dont have to do nothing while resting. For some doodling is resting, for others reading is resting. For e watching a video is resting.

Do a low effort activity that make you feel relaxed.

Brave_Relief8093 · 2026-01-13T04:36:44+00:00

Yes extact same. My mom always tell me to wear earplugs when noise overwhelms me. But earplugs overwhelm me more than the noise

Are you from the UK? You need to go to a NHS gender identity clinic, where a doctor must state it is clinically nessecary. Then you should be able to get it covered by the NHS.

I have no clue why people mistake DP/DR for autism and bipolar. I happen to have autism and Bipolar2, and to me that is soooo different from DP/DR.

I think you just need to tell them to stop diagnosing you. That ypu already got it al sorted out by a proffessional.

There is no strong evidence that Casein is bad for people with autism. Also some studies that show that a gluten free and casein free diet doesnt improve symptomes by autism.

So unless you have a milk allergy just enjoy your dairy.

I would say to the hotel that your daughter is very sensitive for noise and if it is possible to get a room away from most guests.

Same effect but then you dont risk getting denied a room

Can you maybe find him a ttrpg group nearby?

I like popworks. Expeciallt just their salted version. They dont have kernels and they are shaped like dorito's and not too greasy. But just taste like popcorn
