I sold my first sketch. My first actual commission. I should be super happy. And yet I'm kinda flat. A bit apathetic.

I really appreciated the person requesting it. That's not the issue. They were super sweet about it.

I just can't seem to enjoy it. It's really frustrating, actually. It's like everyone else is happy for me. And yet I'm not. Like I need to relearn to be happy or something.

That's awesome. That sounds like a big deal to me, someone wanted one of your creative projects enough to pay for it!

When you want to feel happy about it, what feelings come up?

I hope that you can find a way to revel in your success but if you can't, I will revel in this for you.
