it is what it is...
does steemit serve you well as a creative outlet? does it make you feel better? art can be therapeutic, but it often does not make me feel better....however i do think making ARTWORK lets me work through and express my emotions...
...today it helped serve as a minor distraction from the depression i was blasted with like a bright beam of light, straight into my eyes- all day long....now slowly fading...i hope i continue feeling less bad...here is some art i made for steemit today...
it is what it is
It depends. I do not believe Steemit likes artists and wants creativity be rewarded, not even be noticed. But I know some want to and there are a few witnesses voting for art, but their SP and time is as limited as ours plus they also expect you also are active and promote yourself.
Like you, many artists and creative writers go through depressions, but next to that they/we also laugh and share our (sarcastic humour).
If you never reply, people will give up on you. Your silence also effects them.
Steemit night nit be good for artists, not good for art but those few good commenters definitely are.

Hope you feel better there. Yes, sometimes our efforts to overcome does not work and it can lead to further disappointment and depression. But we have to keep trying to get out of the cycle because it is tiring to be in the cycle. I like your pieces above that has the steemit logo in slight transparency with the flowery and colorful background.
