So i have autsim and dyslexia, also depression and i just feel like a loser who cant do anyhting im trying not to think that way but its hard. i also spend most of my time indoor becasue i dont like going outdoors plus its hot out there.

Ive been wanting to make games or something like that but i litteraly cant code or understand it and ive been reserching game dev for mouths, i also feel like im very limited, like for example my pc is low end or tha tim too scared to drive and idk how to. I just want to do somet hign creative that i can show with others wihtout having to go outside. im kinda nerd but not a very smart one, so theres that.

why must life be soo hard and sad?

    Something like drawing or digital painting might appeal to you. Neither require a powerful computer (or even a computer at all if you use physical materials) and are inexpensive to get into.

    Another thing I personally like doing is baking! Gives my mind something to do and I get tasty treats at the end that I can have myself or share.

      I second the painting, its great, you can give it your full attantion, or you can watch something or listen to podcasts/audiobooks while you do it. Plus a game needs to start somewhere, and i think art is a good starting point. Draw what you imagine the game to be, make maps, create design documents with notes for systems, interactions, ui ect. Programming for me is much easier at that point because you already know what you want to achive, and can start with a specific goal in mind

      I second the baking. It helped me out of a massive depression. I dont have the patience for things that take a long time to see results (e.g. gardening) or for things where failure doesn’t produce something useful (e.g.painting). Baking sees results quickly and it’s almost always tasty, even with mistakes.
