creating a solid artistic brand as someone with no identity

hey everyone! I'm a digital artist with BPD and my whole life I've struggled to create a cohesive brand for my art. I want to get into it professionally, but my problem is that my shifting sense of identity prevents me from sticking to one style and it's really frustrating because I do have the talent but not the solid feeling/aesthetic throughout my art.

looking at my art, it literally looks like each piece has been done by a different person 😭 now I wouldn't have a problem with this if it weren't for marketing.

can any other artists on here relate and if so, how have you stuck to one general style?

thanks! <3

the emptiness I feel is physical

when I'm not feeling super up or down, I feel so empty that it's like I'm itching to get out of my own body to feel something. what I can compare it to is kind of like claustrophobia in that sense. I don't feel alive, I feel like a soulless hunk of walking meat and it's the most uncomfortable thing in the world. absolutely nothing that used to make me excited makes me feel anything anymore, and i haven't left my room in a week except for hygiene and basic human necessities. it's worse than splitting or spiraling in my case.

does anyone have any tips on how to get out of these phases if you can relate, because they go on for way too long and it feels like I'm suffocating in nothingness.

thank you!

Cactus Club Job as a Server - need advice!!

Hi everyone, this is honestly going to be such an embarrassing post but I really need advice right now. I have an interview tomorrow for a server position at Cactus Club Cafe. I've heard they only hire conventionally attractive people. Is this true? I wouldn't call myself striking but maybe above average. 18, thin, but nothing super special. I'm genuinely so so stressed out because I really want this job, more than anything. My family has been struggling for a very long time financially, and I'm doing everything I can to help. I feel like they won't hire me because I don't look like a supermodel, and I very rarely get interviews.

Does anyone have advice, like maybe what kind of questions they will ask me? I want to be prepared as possible to up my chances of getting hired because I feel horribly unconfident right now.

Thank you so much if you leave a comment.
