I did some yard work today to make a little money. Tomorrow, I need to get up bright and early and panhandle. I did not choose to be disabled. I deserve to live well. Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and it is not selfish of me to ask for help.
I might be going crazy, but I think I'm going to try panhandling tomorrow. Doing gigs and odd jobs is too stressful for me. I'm not homeless, but I can't work and my disability aid is months away. I haven't done panhandling before, and I am rather terrified. But I am going to wear a face mask, a hat, and sunglasses, which will help with the feeling of embarrassment. Wish me luck.
Okay, I can take photographs and do tracings of them.
I think, maybe, it can be inspiring to hear someone asserting their own identity and their self-worth. A sense of identity and self-worth are the basic psychological needs that I am working on.
Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and I am able to learn new skills.
I have bipolar disorder, autism, and social agoraphobia. That's why I can't work. I have had so many different jobs, and it never works out. So I have to transition to working from home, which for me means that I have to learn some sort of creative skill like art.
I have trouble making friends Maybe I will write a poem View the problem through a lens Welcome them into my home Daily Affirmation: My name is Blue, and I have the potential to do good things.
I started a secondary blog for practice images: tumblr.com/bluesketchblue It's probably not worth looking at. But having a place to post my practice work will help to motivate me to do it.
My self-esteem was based on my job But it seems I am too mentally-disabled to work I guess my self-esteem is based on my art hobby now
I lost my job. Affirmation of the Day: My name is Blue, and my existence has value.
Affirmation of the Day: My name is Blue, and I have a nice smile.
Affirmation of the Day: My name is Blue, and I am a nice person.
∅ Hi, I'm Blue! ∅ Here are some hearts and diamonds for my new Tumblr friends :)
Self-love is important. I am a good person and I deserve to be loved and respected.
What a fascinating experience this is, to see something I drew incorporated into someone else's work. We have collaborated together now, and made something that is greater than the sum of its parts! What a tremendous new experience! The only artistic collaboration I have done previously was singing in the choir.
Thank you for these lovely images!

∅ Hi, Blue here. ∅ I made an attempt at drawing something useful today. This is my version of the agender gender symbol. I like the use of the empty set sign from math to represent my agender identity. I wanted the image to print on a couple of t-shirts. So that's my image for today.
I don't feel like I have a particular gender, and that is totally valid!
∅ Bonus post! ∅ I decided to put this back up, with a slight modification. Isn't it interesting that the pentagram symbol means something different, depending on whether it points up or down? I should not censor myself. I am Blue, and my mind is free!

∅ Hi, Blue here. ∅ I deleted number 6, and made a new version. This is number 8, not counting the deleted one. I am a real star!
∅ Behold, the artistic genius of Blue! ∅ I have truly captured the essence of architecture in this glorious image. Magnificent!
∅ Hi, I'm Blue! ∅ I have to take a mental health break from the art therapy today. I expect I will have a drawing up tomorrow. At the moment, I draw stick figures with great difficulty. But I guess art is my hobby now. I feel like I need a creative outlet immediately right now, and these scribblings are all that I can do.
Anyway, I'll be back tomorrow. Take care.
