I just simply fucking can't draw. I can't. Its not a skill that I have. I literally can't draw anything even remotely "Good". I'm just fucking useless. I hate myself for not being able to draw well. I hate myself for a lot of things, but drawing IS one of them.

For a while, I had the same mindset. Whenever I tried to draw something, it looked just… crappy. What I did was I had to remove the idea I was trying to draw something. Trying to draw something doesn’t work for me, but if I just let myself doodle I make things that look somewhat interesting. My advice: stop trying. Just screw around with pencil and paper and see what you get!

But... drawing always makes me feel worse.

Don’t do it if you don’t really feel like it, you have to ask yourself if you really want to get better and enjoy drawing, or want to pursue a different hobby. There is a community for everything, from art like drawing to obscure things like transit system design, you may just need to find what you enjoy and leave drawing behind. I understand that drawing is very popular and it can seem invalidating when you see people who are “good” at it and it can make you feel worthless when you realize you can’t do that. You may just have to find something else you enjoy. This is not easy and it’s hard to find a hobby, despite what some people will tell you. But you may feel better if you find something new to do in your spare time.
